#1 Michael Jordan in the 1992-93 NBA Finals vs Phoenix Suns

Michael Jordan in the 1993 Finals

Finals averages: 41.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, 6.3 assists, 1.7 steals, 0.7 blocks per game.

What, did you really think anyone else could be the Numero Uno when it comes to Finals performances?

Michael Jordan cemented the Bulls' three-peat with a 4-2 series victory over the Phoenix Suns led by Charles Barkley, who won the regular season MVP trophy that season. Jordan, who felt slighted that his statistically superior season did not get the accolade it deserved, proceeded to show the world exactly who the Most Valuable Player on the planet was in a well-contested Finals series - despite winning 4 games to the Suns' 2, both teams were tied in total points scored through the series.

His Airness never scored less than 31 points in any game of the series, and he played some of the best defense of his life. Air Jordan's best performance during the series was in Game 4, when he dropped 55 points on a luckless Suns team that could not find any way to stop his jump shooting, and lost despite Charles Barkley's 33-point triple-double! John Paxson's shot to seal the game and series is one of the greatest clutch shots of all time.
