introduction
Michael Jordan, recognized as the first person in NBA history, has reached the Finals 6 times in his career, won the championship 6 times, won the regular season MVP 5 times, won the Finals MVP 6 times, won the scoring title 1 0 times, the steal king in 4 times, and the defensive player 1 time...
No matter what era the honor is put in, Jordan's historical position is as stable as Tarzan. But then again, people have missteps, horses have lost hooves, even mythical characters will have naps, let's take stock together, in Jordan's career, which players have been blasted.
Dominic Wilkins
He is one of the few players who scored no weaker than Jordan when playing against Jordan. In the third season of his career, Jordan won the scoring championship and was selected to the best team, comparing Wilkins, the scoring champion of the previous year, and Jordan paid a lot of price throughout the process.
Wilkins is powerful, and he has repeatedly made Jordan miserable in the face of Jordan, a rising superstar. For the first time in their careers, Wilkins made Jordan shoot just 4 of 16.
On December 10, 1986, the Bulls took on the Hawks on the road, and Jordan suffered the worst loss of his career. Although he shot 15 of 25 and 11 of 12 free throws, he scored 41 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists, but Wilkins shot 19 of 28 and 19 of 21 free throws, scoring 57 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, making Jordan's defense useless.
Larry Bird
Compared to Wilkins, Larry Bird pressed Jordan more ruthlessly, in addition to sweeping Jordan's Bulls out in the playoffs, Bird has also suppressed Jordan in duels many times.
In the March 27 , 1987 game between the Celtics and the Bulls , Bird shot 17 of 29 and 6 of 6 free throws for 41 points , 7 rebounds and 7 assists , while Jordan had only 22 points and 7 assists.
Drexler
There's no debate about Jordan's place in history, but before he won the championship, one man said he was just an ordinary guard, and that man was Drexler. On February 26 , 1988 , during the Blazers game against the Bulls , Drexler erupted , shooting 18 of 33 from the field and 5 of 6 free throws , scoring 42 points , 5 rebounds and 9 assists , leaving Jordan miserable on the defensive end.
In the same game, Jordan shot 21 of 34 and 10 of 12 free throws, scoring 52 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists, and Drexler staged a pair of mutual explosions.
Tracy McGrady
Many people say that Jordan's career would have been more perfect if he had not returned for a third time. But God can also have shortcomings, and Jordan's fighting spirit is even more admirable.
On March 11, 2003, during the Wizards' game against the Magic, Jordan met a talented player, Tracy McGrady.
In that game, Jordan shot 10-of-18 from the field and 3-of-3 from the free throw line for 23 points, four rebounds and three assists, while Maddie shot 16-of-26 and 7-of-9 free throws for 43 points, two rebounds and six assists.
Kobe Bryant
We've heard a lot about Kobe's story. Since entering the league, Kobe has been eager to play against his idol Jordan, but unfortunately Kobe was only a substitute at that time, not even guaranteed playing time, and was not qualified to fight Jordan at all.
In the 2001-2002 season, Jordan once again chose to make a comeback, which made Kobe ecstatic and always looking for a chance to beat Jordan. Perhaps stimulated by Maddie, in the March 28, 2003 game with the Wizards, Kobe Bryant shot 15 of 29 and 16 of 18 free throws, scoring 55 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 assists, directly comparing Jordan's 23 points and 4 assists.
Jordan's great career stems from his super individual performances, he may be beaten in a game, but no player can suppress him for a season.
Wilkins, who scored 57 points on Jordan's head, didn't rejoice for long, and four months later, Jordan completed his revenge and scored a crazy 61 points on his head.
