What most people don't realize is when Moncrief came on board , with sharp shooting Brian Winters and slasher Jr Bridgman Milwaukee back then
won their division for like 9 years.
Dave Meyers a UCLA guy was hell of an athlete , and Elmore Smith was a great defensive presence ...
Then came on another UCLA legend - Lemarcus Johnson
-------------------
granted we never saw a chip again , but Milwaukee had a lot to clap about.. the above players were very good.

Kareem won a title for the franchise that drafted him in his 2nd year. Lebron left ship and joined a stacked squad and couldn't win.

Lebron won in 2016. Jordan missed the playoffs in 2002 and 2003 when he played for the Wizards.

Lebron missed the playoffs in 2004, 2005, 2019, 2022 (had a stacked team and #2 in odds to win it all with Prime Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook, Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard). Jordan turned a franchise that never won into a dynasty. Lebron lost with HCA to Dwight Howard and won bronze medals and lost to Carlos Arroyo in the Olympics despite having peak Tim Duncan and Allen Iverson on his squads along with Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, Dwight Howard to name a few. Prove me wrong!

Jordan won titles in a watered down era

80s Bucks teams were so underrated. Between 81 and 87, never win under 50 games and peaked at 60 games (including 55+ four separate times in a seven season run.) Also won 49 games twice right before and after that seven season 50+ win run.

81 Loss to Sixers by 1 point in game 7 (previous East champs)
82 Loss to Sixers again in 6 games this time (Sixers in Finals)
83 Sweep Boston and then lose to Sixers again. Were the only team to take one from Philly in the entire playoffs.
84 Loss to Boston in east finals (BOS eventual champs)
85 Lose to Sixers
86 Beat Sixers in semis get swept by Boston in easy finals
87 Beat Sixers 1st round, lose to BOS in semis

That Bucks team was better than Lebron's team in Cleveland and really Miami especially during the first year. Dandrige, Allen, and Boozer were all all-stars and champions to go along with Oscar
