Jordan is the highest-volume scorer in NBA history and the competitive standard of his era. Thirty-point-four points per game in 1995-96, the peak of his refined operating window at 32 — when post-up mastery and mid-range precision had fully absorbed the pure athleticism of his earlier seasons. He led the Bulls to 72-10, the most wins in NBA history to that point. The return from his baseball sabbatical in March 1995 produced a Jordan who had added ten pounds of muscle and converted his drive-and-dunk game into the complete post-scoring arsenal that distinguished his second three-peat from the first. Nine First Team All-Defense selections, one Defensive Player of the Year award, six championships with six Finals MVPs. His late-game record — 6-0 in Finals, documented 5.7 PPG higher in clutch situations than non-clutch across his playoff career — is the most analyzed in basketball history. Phil Jackson's triangle offense was built around his tendencies and his documented ability to read and react without prescribed decision trees. His 1995-96 season is widely analyzed as his most complete: the historic team record, the most dominant defense of his era (99.7 defensive rating), and a scoring average that matched his career standard.
