Who assisted on highest proportion of Bulls FG's in playoffs during 6-peat?

[3ball]

Jordan did, as the stats show here.. This shouldn't be a surprise, since he led the Bulls in APG for most playoff runs.

The remarkable thing is that he led the Bulls in passing while carrying the biggest scoring load ever, BY FAR - no all-time great led their team in scoring for every playoff series of their careers, EXCEPT Jordan, who did so by an average margin of 15.4 ppg.

This is why it's funny when a new fan says that Jordan's teams were IDEALLY built around him - obviously, it isn't IDEAL for anyone to carry such a goat scoring load, while also leading the team in passing, while also being the best defender ever at their position.. Obviously, that isn't IDEAL..

6-peat.

1-9

There was no 6-peat, and Pippen led the Bulls in apg and assist% in the second 3-peat. You've done this before, but you're trying to apply stats from the first 3-peat to the second 3-peat to make it look like Jordan was the top assist man for each championship run. It's completely disingenuous.

GOAT gon GOAT tbh

I must admit, its f*ckin funny watching c*nts try discredit it...clearly jumped on basketball later than the Jordan era yet still have the audacity to try spin things to suit their poor version of events.

As you can see, JORDAN led the Bulls in assist % for both 3-peats, so he assisted on the highest proportion of Bulls' field goals during their 6 title runs

There was no 6peat

There was no 6peat

I used the term "6-peat" because that's the only expression that would fit into the title.

Nonetheless, it WAS a 6-peat if we're only considering full seasons that Jordan played, not seasons he took off, or seasons where he only played 17 games at the end.

Regardless of the semantics, Jordan assisted on the highest proportion of Bulls' field goals in the playoffs during their 6 title runs.

Ultimately, no franchise player should be required to have the GOAT scoring load (by far) AND lead the team in passing while also playing the best defense ever at their position - that is NOT a team that's built "ideally" around the franchise player.. (however, making this crucial point that the Bulls were NOT ideally built first requires showing that Jordan led the team in passing, hence the thread title).

Why would it be shocking with the #1 usage all time player.

[AirBonner]

Jordan was never REQUIRED to have the goat scoring load. His teammates were quite capable despite your slander towards them. It comes down to selfishness. Jordan was selfish and arrogant. That is why they won 50+ games without him.

Pippen led the Bulls in apg in '92, '96, and '98. He led the Bulls in assist % in '96 and '98.

Point is, Jordan was not the top assist man for every title run.

[COLOR="Red"]Point is[/COLOR], Jordan was not the top assist man for every title run.

Point is, when we look at the 6 title runs OVERALL, Jordan assisted on the highest proportion of Bulls' field goals during their 6 title runs, and therefore led the Bulls in passing when looking at the 6 runs OVERALL..

Obviously, overall is what matters.

Ultimately, no franchise player should be required to have the GOAT scoring load (by far) AND lead the team in passing while also playing the best defense ever at their position - that is NOT a team that's built "ideally" around the franchise player..

Jordan was never REQUIRED to have the goat scoring load.

We know for a FACT that Jordan was required to score that much, because his teammates played to full capacity alongside him:

PIPPEN 1992:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 21.0 ppg.. 7.7 rpg.. [COLOR="DarkRed"]7.1 apg[/color]
PIPPEN 1994:[COLOR="White"].[/COLOR] 22.0 ppg.. 8.7 rpg.. [COLOR="DarkRed"]5.6 apg[/COLOR]

GRANT 1992:[COLOR="White"].[/color] 14/10
GRANT 1994:[COLOR="White"].[/color] 15/10

Jordan simply added his GOAT production to what was already there, without diminishing anything - that's why the Bulls were a 2nd Round team without him, but the GOAT team with him..
