Even that is not giving the Spurs enough credit. If both teams play to their capabilities the Spurs win convincingly. In 2014 the Spurs were worse and LeBron was better, and it wasn't close then.
It's quite the power LeBron has to make the general public not only root against him but preemptively overstate his team's prowess to either diminish a championship or accentuate a loss. LeBron's team has been the favorite in 2 of 6 Finals appearances and LeBron has 2 championships.
