    Default The Greatest Post-Season Series Ever

    Single single post-season series by an individual player. You can include as much circumstantial evidence as you like (such as individual opponent, team opponent, etc.)

    Maybe Jerry West's amazing 1969 finals. He even won finals MVP on a losing team. It's a shame his big man choked away the series

    West's '69 Finals performance does deserve a mention. A seven game series against the GOAT Dynasty.

    37.9 ppg
    7.4 rpg
    7.4 apg

    Four games of 40+, with a high of 53. Game seven of 42 points, 13 rebounds, and 12 assists.

    LeBron vs 2009 Orlando Magic in ECF

    38.5ppg 8.3reb 8ast on 48% FG and 59% TS



    This was against the #1 defense in the league, in a modern slow-paced era, with a MUCH tougher defensive scheme than any other player ever faced.

    Wilt's First Round demolition of the Royals in the '67 playoffs.

    28.0 ppg, 26.5 rpg, 22.6 TRB%, 11.0 apg, .617 FG%. (A Triple-Double series.)

    The .617 eFG% came in a post-season NBA that shot an eFG% of .424...or nearly 20 percentage points higher than the post-season league average.

    Two Triple Doubles in a five game series...

    37-27-11
    16-30-19 (and with an estimated 20 blocked shots.)

    High game of 41 points.
    19 assists in game three tied the playoff record at that time.

    The starting center for that Royals team was a 6 foot 9 Connie Dierking.

    Kobe sure made history that season. First FMVP to never shoot better than 50% in any game in the series
