Bleacher Report Presents: Recent Franchises That Could Have Been Great Dynasties

From Aaron Rodgers' 2010 Green Bay Packers to the recently broken up Big Three of the Miami Heat.

In professional sports, timing and pure, flat-out luck matter to annoying degree. Athletes have primes to play through and teams have championship windows of varying openings, and in league efforts to promote parity, those two components to winning a title are actively compromised. Contracts, drafts, salary caps, free agency—all are designs to destroy teams as much as they are to build. Player injuries, a deterrent to team success, happen randomly and unfairly. In their latest list, Bleacher Report recalls recent teams who've had enough timing, luck, and talent to put together championship winners, but not enough to sustain the mix and jet off on a dynastic run. From LeBron's Miami teams to Jim Harbaugh's San Francisco​ 49ers, these are Recent Franchises That Could Have Been Great Dynasties. Check out the full list here
