Oh come on those 07 Cavs were awful. Saying they weren’t bad pretty much discredits your whole point. The 15 Cavs might have won if both Kyrie and Love hadn’t gotten hurt and then ofc they had no chance when Durant joined the opposition. That 18 team was also pretty awful.
Anyway I disagree with your premise since Jordan didn’t enable his teammates as much. When he went to play baseball that year how did true Bulls do? Oh yeah they won 55 games. When James left Cleveland they went from 60 wins to 20 wins overnight. I do think there is value to Jordan’s unbeaten records in finals, but losing in finals isn’t a black mark compared to losing before the finals which Jordan did many times. Like I said I think they’re fairly even. Jordan’s unbeaten record and all time peak against James lifting up teams and beating better opponents than Jordan ever faced.
