Michael Jordan: His records!
So in this post I decided to talk about the records set by MJ. As you all may know this man loved to score points. He just had a God given talent to score. At one point the Celtics great Larry Bird once said that God dressed up as MJ and play basketball. I mean that is a very high remark to make and since he is a great a lot of people listen to him. Today MJ holds the highest season point average of 30 points. That is an incredible feat because that is crazy. You have to score 30 or more points a game. In playoffs he owns the highest point percentage also and it is 33 points. He is just to awesome in my opinion. Also in the 1991-1993 Finals he is the only player to own three MVP's in a row. He made history people and thats is awesome. During his time all of his games in or out of town were sold out. THAT IS REALLY COOL! They said he got $30 million alone from game tickets and other endorsements. I think the NBA commissioner and other members must have been crying when he left the game. He also owns the record of the only 40 year old player to score over 40+ points. That is incredible because he played with the Wizards for two years. During one of the seasons he was turned 40. He is full achievements that I probably do not know about. But all of his achievements where engraved into a stone next to the Bulls arena in Chicago. So if you guys are curious I suggest you visit Chicago.

Turns out that I'm actually going to Chicago in three weeks (!), but I"m not sure I'll get to the arena. I'll keep my eyes open and see if there's evidence of Jordon to be seen.
ReplyDeleteHow do his records stand up against players like K.A. Jabbar and Wilt Chamberlin?
Well Wilt Chamberlain has more Championship titles then most players. But the thing is that each defined there own era. Jordan was just too good during his time and thus earned the "best basketball player" nickname.
