    Lebron has done it too, but James Jones is unbelievable.

    When you are the only superstar on you conference (except for the years the other superstar was on his own team ) can't be that much hard.

    I thought Wade and Bosh were superstars?

    When you had to jump ship twice to do it not much of an accomplishment

    No one else, modern.

    Bill Russell would have the longest streak I guess, but for modern players, Bird did it four times in a row.

    It'll be hard for this not to come across as a criticism of LeBron James but... making the Finals with those Heat teams seems to be a little bit of a different situation, considering the base of that ballclub was three dream teamers grouping together in a random locale and building their entire team from scratch.

    LeBron James is the best player I've seen since Michael Jordan, but not because he reached the finals numerous times with the Super Heat.

    Wade isn't anymore, Bosh never was and he's out since January so it doesn't matter for this year analyses.

    AND back-to-back finals with different franchises.

    AND finals in the first year with two different squads with losing records the previous year.

    AND a dismal record for his teams the year following his departure.

    Lebron's impact is freaking off the charts.

    He could be the one to lose 7 final games on the roll.

    Taking a team that previously won 33 games into the Finals is impressive no matter how u look at it
