    Default Jordan's Game 7 Finals Record

    Oh, that's right - never mind. He doesn't have a game 7 finals record. He always won the finals without it going to 7 games. He was just that dominant.

    SGA who is the “best two way player” since MJ is one game away from reaching a 7th game.

    Well when you're facing cupcake opponents/always have the better team you shouldn't need 7 game to win the series.

    '91 Lakers: No Kareem, No Riley, HIV Magic
    '92 Blazers: Low IQ team that regularly imploded in crunch time with Hitler as their head coach
    '93 Suns: Not much defensive resistance. One of the worst defensive teams in the playoffs
    '96 Sonics: Basically the 2012-2015 Clippers of their era, never got close to reaching the Finals again
    '97 & '98 Jazz: Old ass team with role players who were no names, led by Malone who was a choker

    This had a variety of reasons, such as Kerr & Paxson hitting series winning shots, and the Jazz getting screwed in 98.

    .
    It's a black mark that Lebron wet the bed for the first 4 games, and therefore needed Game 7 in the 08' ECSF, 13' Finals, and 16' Finals:


    First 4 games (thereby needing Game 7):

    08' ECSF........ 19 on 26%
    13' Finals....... 16 on 39%
    16' Finals....... 24 and 6 TO's

    Unintentionally funny, I'm sure. But funny nonetheless

    What's funny is that Lebron faced the WORST finals team in the modern era in 2020, and it STILL took him 6 games to beat them. And that was with Bam Adebayo injured.

    Best "since," but obviously not as good as - yet, anyway. SGA's still getting better every year and may not have peaked yet.

    Did you know that he lost in 2011 as a massive favorite? Not only that, but he had the worst choke job of ALL TIME.

    Seeing how you fancy yourself to be a basketball historian, were you aware of those things?
