As far as this idea that Jordan had a super team. Well sure but it was all drafted and not built through FA and players colluding with one another. Also just to remind people Rodman was traded to the Bulls from the Spurs for Will Perdue.

This chart says it all.

Percentage of positive team VORP contributed from players acquired by the draft for each NBA champion, 1980-2016.
The East was diluted in the mid 80s. Jordan's first playoff team went 30-52. Lebron's 35-47 record wasn't good enough to make the playoffs in the 2004 East
