The Denver Nuggets’ 2023 championship run highlights an encouraging trend that’s occurred in the NBA over the last half-decade: no longer do only a handful of teams enter each season with a realistic chance of winning the title. The Nuggets are the fifth team in the last five years to win the championship.
