Who’s had better teammates, LeBron James or Michael Jordan?

We hold this NBA truth to be self-evident, that LeBron James' teams were not created equal.

Any time we start to debate LeBron's legacy — and with a few days still left before the 2017 Finals, we're having that conversation on an hourly basis — someone has to bring up The King's superteams.

He might be great, the thinking goes, but LeBron had an awful lot of help on his way to seven straight Finals (eight total) and three championships.

In fact, if you gave Michael Jordan LeBron's history of teammates, His Airness might be 10-for-10 in the Finals — or so his biggest fans would have you believe.
