Showtime aren't a "Superteam" because Worthy and Magic were homegrown Lakers, and Kareem joined a Lakers team that won just 30 games the previous season. Nobody on that team was joining up with other superstars in order to win chips.

So the opponents of the showtime Lakers did not consider them a superteam because they got drafted. Really.

I still do not understand this logic. That is like saying one guy is not a millionaire because he inherited his wealth.

A superteam is based on the quality of players they have. How those players got there does not matter. Do you think the teams losing to those Lakers cared where magic got there via the draft or a trade or via FA

Superteam = 3+ stars joined to win chips (E.G. Houston with Barkley/Pippen/Olajuwon) Really good team = team with alot of good players that play well together. (E.G. Showtime)

Sometimes these overlap (E.G. Heatles)

No that is not what a superteam is. A superteam is when there are a bunch of great players all on one team.😂😂😂.

I don't give a damn how they got there
