In fact, LeBron was drafted the same year Jordan retired for the final time. As a result, the NBA looked to LeBron to fill his shoes. Not only was LeBron James unable to win a championship, he was swept in his first NBA Finals appearance. That, alone, disqualified LeBron from Jordan’s six titles in six appearances record. After that, LeBron controversially left the Cleveland Cavaliers to form a superteam with the Miami Heat.
