Jordan guarded by John Starks

Not only was Jordan the epitome of spectacular basketball, he was also the personification of basketball consistency. Evidence of this is the fact that in 179 playoff games through the course of his career, Jordan never recorded fewer than 15 points - not once. With all due respect to the likes of LeBron, Kareem, Magic and Bird, to name a few, every single all-time great has had a game or two in which they've been outrageously bad and detrimental to the play of their team.

Not Michael, however. On top of playing his heart out on defense on a nightly basis, he put his mind to developing a scoring repertoire like few others in the history of the game and made sure the box score reflected this. Every. Single. Game.
