I think your qualifier that every series had one of those teams is cherry-picking though. The Sixers were the dominant team in '83, beating out the Celts. The only team close to being a super team was LA, who had Magic (who I think was the best ever), Jabbar and Worthy. However,I think all of those players were drafted by LA, so that's why they get somewhat of a pass while GS and CLE don't.
GS drafted their core of curry, thompson, and green. durant is the major one who came in FA. Thats great drafting that took them to two finals, one won and broke all sorts of records. They add a top player and win another.

Jabbar played for milwaukee first then came to the laker
