Very, very interesting stuff. What this will tell you is that LeBron's supporting casts have generally sucked. But it also tells you this:
2007 -- 61st best team versus 1th best team the Spurs -- Spurs sweep.
2011 -- 10th best team versus 58th best team the Mavs -- Mavs in 6 - it really was as terrible of a choke job as we imagined.
2012 -- #21 versus the #25 OKC club -- easy win, so a better win that we imagined.
2013 -- #39 club versus the #2 Spurs -- you wonder why the Spurs were SOOOOO pissed that they lost? They were much better than the Heat.
2014 -- #53 versus #7 Spurs -- Spurs in 5. Spurs were way better.
2015 -- #60 versus #14 Warriors. Looks like it should be Warriors in 5.
