Jordan Contim
back near the end of the season tc
guide the Bulls into the playoffs anc
turn in perhaps the signature perfor
mance of his young career, scoring 6:
points in a Dlavoff same against Rirr
and the Celtics.
It was after this performance, ir
which Jordan poured in shots from
everywhere on the court against double
and triple teams, that Bird offered
his now famous appraisal ol
the one they call Air Jordan: "He's
God disguised as Michael Jordan."
In his third year in the NBA, Joi
dan was again runner-up for MVP
honors. This time he finished second
to Johnson in the balloting after
scoring 3,041 points, establishing
himself as the only player other than
Wilt Chamberlain to score more than
3,000 points in a season.
After averaging 35.0 points a game
in the 1987-88 season, it was finally
Jordan's turn for the NBA's most
prestigious individual honor. He
finished ahead of Johnson and Bird
in the MVP balloting.
And to answer the growing
number of critics who belong to the
"Michael Jordan's game depends on
scoring" club, he set a career-high
mark for assists (485 ? 18 more than
Bird had).
Jordan was chosen Defensive
Player of the Year by the NBA's
head coaches after he finished the
'87-88 season with more than 200
steals and 100 blocks for the second
time in his career, which is two more
times than what Bird, Magic or
anyone has ever accomplished.
An NBA players poll conducted
over the All-Star break this year
revealed Jordan was their choice for
the league's top defender, beating
out the Lakers' Michael Cooper.

> Does Jordan influence his team1
mates' play? Well, the Bulls led the
league in one category last year ?
t you guessed it, team defense.
I Of course, those who claim
allqgiance to Bird or Magic don't
i want to hear about defense any more
i than I want to hear about world
titles. They prefer to characterize
Jordan as "the one-man team."
These members of the Bird and
; Magic faithful are always launching
such classic statements as "Jordan
wouldn't score 35 points a game if he
played for the Celtics or Lakers."
Holding back a grin, 1 usually respond
that I would hope he wouldn't
have to. In fact, those who really
follow Jordan know nothing would
make him happier than having less
scoring responsibilities. He would be
free to concentrate even more on
other aspects of his game.
Hypothetically speaking,
wouldn't it be interesting to consider
Magic filling Jordan's famous
Nikes? (1 know Magic wears Converse;
don't be picky.) It's a safe bet
that only Magic's whining would increase
the first game he-got on the
break and saw Dave Corzine filling
the lane instead of James Worthy.
However, no scenarios like these
are fair to the players involved.
That's why I feel the question
ultimately comes down to who has
the most individual credentials, and
for my money, it's today's most complete
player ? Michael Jordan.
Magic Johnson himself once admitted,
"Really, there's Michael, and
then there's everyone else."
Well said.
(Editor's note: Since this column
was written, Magic Johnson has
returned to the Lakers' lineup.)
