Michael Jordan was the NBA player of the 1990s. He helped the Chicago Bulls win six
championships in those days alongside teammate Scottie Pippen. They weren’t the only players to excel but Jordan, along with Pippen, were the main focal points. And for a team that did not really have a scoring threat inside, the Bulls dominated the league.
The reason they dominated: Michael Jordan. With his patented fadeaway jump shot, he would post up on the left or right block and work you in there until getting off his fadeaway that was unblockable. And that allowed him to put up tons of points as his incredible athleticism began to fade some as he got older. The Philadelphia 76ers saw up close and personal what Jordan could do in the later years of his career, as he scored 20 points on Jan. 15, 1998, with one of those points being his 28,000th point in the NBA. Unfortunately, his 20 points weren’t enough as the 76ers beat the Bulls 106-96.
