So Lebron could've made 4 Finals without super-teams and therefore didn't need super-teams.

Super-teams were overkill and massively unfair, so I don't understand why he gets credit for 8 straight Finals when it was obviously a set up - he made a "decision" to hand-pick the preseason favorite from 11-16' and form super-teams in a conference that 1-star teams were mostly winning.

He literally manufactured a Finals streak in plain view but still gets full credit for it as if he didn't stack the deck to do it... :hammerhead:

Btw, the 2018 Cavs were a function of previous super-teams - they were a 2-star team of 3-time Finals veterans against a bunch of 0-star, newbie teams - no contest - another setup

Yeah Lebron averaged 34/9/9 but that's standard against non-elite teams, like when MJ averaged 35/7/7 for the entire 85-93' Playoffs including a bunch of 40-45 ppg series (43/7/7) against many top 10 SRS opponents.. Unfortunately, that wasn't enough to win the conference because a dynasty was required to win that conference
