LeBron’s teams often were big underdogs in the finals as he played against, not on, dynasties. For perspective on “-8.5”, the difference between the 20’ Lakers and 20’ Suns is 8.9. In 19’ the gap between the Warriors and the 19’ Grizzlies is 8.5.
In the ECF his teams usually had an edge but not always.
