Michael Jordan: Chicago Bulls
Jordan played 13 seasons for the Bulls, generally as a shooting guard. But his height (6'6", or 1.98 m), skills, and physical conditioning made him a versatile threat who could also play 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 -- a feat not likely to ever be duplicated. He also earned the elusive MVP triple crown (league, finals, all-star game) twice when he won All-Star MVP in both 1996 and 1998 (he also won in 1988). Only Willis Reed (1970) and Shaquille O'Neal (2000) have won all three MVP awards in the same season. In 1997, he also recorded the All-Star Game's only triple-double.
Jordan's #23 jersey was retired by the Bulls upon his retirement, and when he made his return in 1995, he did so wearing #45, the number he wore for the Birmingham Barons minor league baseball team. But he broke out his old #23 jersey during a second-round playoff series against the Orlando Magic, and continued to wear #23 for the remainder of his NBA career.
