    '89 vs. Knicks
    '89 vs. Cavs
    '91 vs. Pistons
    '91 vs. Lakers
    '98 Jazz

    Jordan was terrible in the 93 series vs the Knicks besides that 50 point game he had. That was Scottie's series. He made all the big shots and made all the big plays averaging 22ppg. Jordan shot terrible the entire series besides that huge 50 point game.

    The first game they lost Jordan had 27 points on .370fg% 10/27. He took 27 shots to get his 27 points. Scottie Pippen was 8/19 with 24pts and .421%. Game two Jordan shot 12/32 for 36 points. Pippen gave up 17pts on 7/12fg. Game three Jordan was 3/18 for 22pts because he went to the line and made 16/17 fts. Scottie Pippen was 10/12 fg% of .833 and 8/10 from the ft line for 29 points. Game four was when MJ had 54 points. Game five he had 29 pts on 11/24 (.458) shooting while Scottie had 28 points on 12/23 ( .522%). On the series winning game six Jordan shot 8/24 for 25 points while pippen shot 9/18 for 24 points.
    Wow, can we did this for all the series where Pippen shot like shit? Because that list is WAAAAY longer than the list for Jordan. And you of all people should know that players can contribute in other areas. Jordan was DOMINANT and game-changing defensively in that Knicks series, and had games of 9, 11, and 14 assists in addition to a triple double in one game.

    Lebron Stans, best if you stick with going after Kobe. Jordan's pretty much untouchable. For you guys, anyway.

    I never mentioned Lebron. You are insecure and this is why you are bringing him.

    Bulls being the favorites is up for debate depending on who you ask I guess. I don't have the vegas odds at the time, but these are series he won without HCA, which is usually most of the time is a good indicator of who was the favorites.

    89' Cavs
    89' Knicks
    93' Knicks
    93' Suns
    95' Hornets
    98' Jazz

    For comparison's sake:

    Lebron
    07' Pistons
    11' Bulls
    12' Thunder

    Kobe
    01' Spurs
    02' Kings
    03' T-Wolves
    04' Spurs
    04' T-Wolves

    Shaq
    01' Spurs
    02' Kings
    03' T-Wolves
    04' Spurs
    04' T-Wolves
    06' Pistons
    06' Mavs

    Duncan
    05' Suns
    07' Suns
    08' Hornets
    10' Mavs

    Hakeem
    86' Lakers
    87' Blazers
    95' Jazz
    95' Suns
    95' Spurs
    95' Magic

    Magic
    82' Sixers
    85' Celtics
    91' Blazers

    Bird
    NONE

    He wasn't a favorite in every series he ever won. He just comes off as that historically because he shit on everyone so badly.
    This.
