This is just one of those things that people say. Like you can't win a championship without a "star." Hawks in 4.

Except history clearly dictates that stars dominate the championship count.

Tim Duncan, MJ, Olajawon, Shaq, Kobe, and Lebron have been responsible for nearly every championship of the past 25 years. That's 6 players for 25 years. If you don't have one of those players, odds are against your team.
