Has any team other than the celtics given them trouble in the east? I guess the pacers in 13. Is that it?

orlando dwight, and the very tail end of the pistons's run. 
 
 
Four teams gave Lebron trouble over the past 10 seasons. That's so pitiful.

Or maybe LeBron is just good.

I just wish we had a few legit teams out east like we always do in the west
weve known who's gonna represent the east for like a decade

Only good parity we had was 2009 and 2010. Orlando and Boston were nice surprises

i didn't mean with his first run with the cavs. He only made one finals then so clearly plenty of teams have him trouble haha. I remember an epic series vs the Wizards

I think a lot of that has to do with how good he is and how good his teams have been. Similar to Golden State.

And even then it's not like people haven't been picking LeBron's team to lose in the Eastern playoffs throughout the years. 
 
For some reason people have consistently thought the Bulls could beat his teams.

"It's a certain way of being a professional," Paul Millsap said to Cleveland.com. "I'm not mad about it, but just being professionals man. If that's how you want to approach it, that's how you approach it. I think our team and our organization has class and I don't think we would have continued to do that, but other organizations do other things so what can you do about it?"
 
Al Horford echoed his frontcourt mate's sentiments.
 
"We probably wouldn't do anything like that [if we were in that position]," he told cleveland.com. "...It's hard to say, but I would say no."
 
Kent Bazemore implied that what goes around, comes around.
 
"I'm a firm believer in karma," the small forward relayed to cleveland.com. "Maybe we'll be the team to break that record soon. Everyone knows how they play. They get out in front and they're a totally different team. It is what it is. We'll see them again. That wasn't Game 4. That was only Game 2. They still have to beat us two more times before they can really celebrate anything."

Damn, they mad, but at least they got class.

At the time, those 1 seed Bulls teams appeared to have a very good shot at beating the Heat.  Especially the 2010 team.  
 
They just shit the bed.
