    Default Karl Malone averaged 25 ppg and 11 rpg in the 1998 NBA Finals

    It's not his fault Hornacek and Stockton averaged 10 ppg and 9 rpg compared to Pippen and Kukoc who both averaged 16 ppg in the NBA Finals.

    No one wins any titles because they always face MJ in the 90's... Only Hakeem got lucky because MJ didn't play full seasons.. And Duncan got lucky because MJ retired (not enough time to start over and build another champion from scratch like he did in 95' or 88')

    That's why Jordan never won an nba championship in the 1980's. Jordan played for 5 years in the 80's.

    The Pistons beat Jordan to win in 1990 and Hakeem swept the team Jordan lost to in '95.

    that's the least anyone ever lost with an all-star teammate - it took Jordan missing most of the season (95') or he missed out on a massive upset win when Pippen had the historic meltdown

    So Jordan lost the least ever with an all-star - he basically never lost with an all-star, while Lebron lost many times with TWO all-stars (11', 14', 17') and other times with 1 all-star (05', 09', 18', 21', 23')

    Jordan's unique ability to basically never lose once he got a single all-star is the only reason Pippen stuck around for so long and racked up titles.
