Spurs get: DeMar DeRozan, Jakob Poeltl, 2019 top-20 first-round protected pick

The Raptors, with the help of super mercenary Leonard, led Toronto to win the first NBA championship in team history, and then signed with the Clippers. Although DeRozan helped the Spurs maintain their record, it was difficult to prevent the Spurs from slowly declining and began to rebuild comprehensively.

Clippers get: Chris Paul and 2015 second-round pick
Pelicans receive: Al-Farouq Aminu, Chris Kaman, Eric Gordon and Timberwolves' 2012 first-round pick

After this trade, the Hornets rebuilt with Gordon as the core. He also averaged 22 points per game. However, injuries put Gordon's career on hold and disrupted the Hornets' progress.

Sixers get: Andrew Bynum
Gold nuggets get: Andre Iguodala
Howard has been a trade target for NBA teams all year, but the team finally kindly traded him to Los Angeles, which he longed for.
Looking at history in the rearview mirror, this was a no-win deal. Howard and Iguodala both stayed for just one season before leaving. Bynum never played a game for the Sixers and only played in 26 games since then. The Magic picked Vucevic as their star player.
But since then, the Magic have never made it past the second round of the playoffs.
