26. Yet Another Non-Rebuttal

My argument is simple. If a salary cap makes a league more competitively balanced, then how do you explain how certain teams in all three major repeatedly participate in their league's final game/series?

For example, how do you explain how the LA Lakers, in the strict salary cap of the NBA, have made it to their league's finals 15 times in the past 30 years (50% of the time), yet, the Yankees made their finals 9 out 30 times or 30%.

How can this be?

I await your intelligent response.
