ARTICLES RELATED TO Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview | | | |  Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - NBA career: OverviewJordan played 13 seasons for the Bulls, generally as a shooting guard, but his height of 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m), skills, and physical conditioning also made him a versatile threat at point guard and small forward. He won six NBA Championships (1991-1993 and 1996-1998) and was league MVP five times (1988, 1991, 1992, 1996 and 1998). He was also named Rookie of the Year (1985) and Defensive Player of the Year (1988), and won the Finals MVP award every year the Bulls reached the Finals.

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - The Second 3-Peat Freshly motivated by the playoff defeat, Jordan trained aggressively in preparation for the 1995-96 season. That year, strengthened by the addition of rebounder extraordinaire Dennis Rodman, the Bulls dominated the league, finishing with a record of 72-10 - to date the best regular season record in NBA history. Jordan won the league's regular season and All-Star Game MVP awards. In the playoffs, the Bulls lost only three games in four series, defeating the Seattle Supersonics in the NBA Finals to win the championship. For his performance in the seri ...

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - Washington Wizards On January 19, 2000, Jordan returned to the NBA not as a player, but as part owner and President of Basketball Operations for the Washington Wizards. His responsibilities with the club were to be comprehensive, as he was in charge of all aspects of the team, including personnel decisions. Less than a month later, Jordan won four ESPY Awards at the annual ceremony: Athlete of the Century; Male Athlete of the 1990's; Pro Basketball Player of the 1990's; and Play of the Decade, for the famous shot against the Lakers in the 1991 Finals in which Jordan switched the ball from his right to his left hand in mid-air. If Michael Jordan ...

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - Jordan's legacy Jordan's basketball talent was clear from his rookie season in the NBA. His breathtaking dunks, tenacious defense and apparent ability to score at will amazed fans and opponents. After Jordan poured in 63 points against the Boston Celtics in a 1986 playoff game (still a playoff record), Celtic superstar Larry Bird famously described him as "God disguised as Michael Jordan."
Still, many critics refused to consider him as good as the two great players of the 1980s, Bird and the Los Angeles Lakers' Magic Johnson. Jordan, it was said, was ...

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - Businessman Jordan is one of the most marketed sports figures in history. He has been a major spokesman for such brands as Nike, Gatorade, Hanes, McDonald's, Ball Park Franks, Rayovac and MCI. He first appeared on Wheaties boxes in 1988, and acted as their spokesman as well.
Nike created a signature shoe for him, called the Air Jordan. The hype and demand for the shoes even brought on a spat of "shoe-jackings" where young boys were robbed of their sneakers at gunpoint. The innovation of designer Tinker Hatfield spurred the basketball shoe ...

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - Baseball career After retiring from basketball, Jordan spent the next year pursuing a childhood dream: professional baseball. He signed a minor league contract with the Chicago White Sox of the American League (AL), reported to spring training, and was assigned to the team's minor league system. He had an unspectacular professional baseball career for the Birmingham Barons, a Chicago White Sox farm team, batting .202 with 3 HR, 51 RBI, 30 SB (tied-5th in Southern League), 11 errors and 6 outfield assists. He led the club with 11 bases-loaded RBI and 25 ...

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - Early NBA Career After a fairly disappointing first NBA game where he only scored 16 points, Jordan quickly took the league by storm in his rookie year, scoring 40 or more points 7 times en route to a 28.2 PPG season. He also averaged 6.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists, and 2.4 steals per game in his rookie year. He revived interest in a floundering Bulls franchise and became one of the most popular players in the sport. His accomplishments lead to a spot on ...

Jordan's Bulls got out of the first round for the first time, beating the Cleveland Cavaliers in five games (with Jordan averaging 45.2 PPG during the series) before losing in five games to the ev ...

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - The First 3-Peat Michael Jordan, motivated by the narrow defeat to the Pistons, bought into the Jackson and assistant coach Tex Winter's triangle offense after years of resistance. He won his second MVP award, posting a 31.5/6.0/5.5 season. The Bulls finished in first place for the first time in 16 years. With Scottie Pippen becoming an All-Star, the Bulls proved too strong for their Eastern Conference competition. After sweeping the New York Knicks and beating the Philadelphia 76ers in five games, the Bulls finally conquered the Pistons, sweeping them in fo ...

| | | | Michael Jordan - NBA career: Overview: Encyclopedia II - Michael Jordan - I'm Back: Return to the NBA Jordan's underwhelming performances in baseball, and the professional baseball players' strike of 1994, prompted him to consider rejoining the Bulls. On March 18, 1995, Jordan announced his return to the NBA through a two-word press release: "I'm back." The next day, he donned jersey number 45 (his number with the Barons, as his familiar #23 had been retired) and took the court with the Bulls to face the Indiana Pacers, scoring 19 points.
Although Jordan hadn't set foot on an NBA court in one-and-a-half years, he played well upon his ...
