Whatever you call him, Michael Jeffrey Jordan can be considered one of the greatest basketball players of all time. During his career, Jordan won six NBA championships and was a fourteen-time All-Star, five-time NBA MVP, and six-time NBA Finals MVP. To say Jordan was dominant during his career would be a severe understatement.

Charles Barkley
Hubie Brown
Robert Parish
Terry Porter
Jeff Van Gundy
