This actually is a perfect case of revisionist history - that being - that Bron was the "poster boy" or "creator of superteams".

They just spun that narrative because people got mad & sad that he left Cleveland for Miami.

But he did it in part because of the Celtics created a *superteam* fam. They had 4 all-stars 3/4 hall of famers and Bron was riding w/ Mo Williams and Ilgauskas. So in that particular era it was the Celtics who were the "poster boys" of the new superteam. But people also conveniently omit the fact that the Showtime Lakers was a Superteam (with arguably 2 top 5 all time greats!). The Celtics? Superteam. Pistons? Superteam. Bulls? Superteam. Kobe/Shaq Lakers? Superteam. All of those teams were more stacked than the Bron/Wade Heat.

Bron ain't the "poster boy" for the Superteam. No great teams/dynasties ever become that without being super teams, period.
