Hey guys, I’ve lately been itching to get back into watching the NBA; the last time I was kinda up to date and aware of what was happening in the NBA was 2019, when Toronto won the championships. Even then I was kinda on and off. So I was just wondering if anyone could give me a quick recap of the past five years of what’s happened?

Like significant trades, where some all stars are now (not all, just y’all favourites I guess) and who won/what’s interesting?

Appreciate it!

    Probably the most fun thing is that we’ve had a series of different champs. Raptors, Lakers (with Bron and AD), Bucks (Giannis), Warriors (Steph, Klay, Dray), and Nuggets (who picked up Aaron Gordon in a trade to go with Jokic, Murray, and MPJ). Yes, really, the Nuggets, and in dominant fashion (16-4 in the playoffs, with Jokic blowing away Wilt’s single-postseason triple double record.)

    Recent MVPs have been Giannis twice, Jokic twice, and Embiid last year.

    Major superstar destinations have been the Suns (KD and Beal, along with Nurkic replacing Ayton) and the Clippers (Kawhi, PG, Westbrook, and Harden as of today.) The Nets superteam was completely dismantled, with Kyrie, their third star, going to Dallas to join Luka.

    The Spurs drafted a freak of nature in Wemby at #1 overall. 7’4" tall, good shooter, good handle, could be a generational player.
