If there is one player who was genuinely bigger than the sport itself, in any sport across the world, it is Michael Jordan. Having grown up during times when every great play I saw on television was met with the same old 'That's Jordanesque' reaction from fans around me, I didn't really realize that this man was better than all the hype and hoopla around him till I actually bothered to look up game tape and relive game after game on which Jordan stamped his authority.

Universally recognized as the greatest to ever step on the hardwood, Jordan holds the record for points per game for regular season play, playoff games as well as the NBA Finals. He was the definition of clutch when push came to shove, and the fact that he never even had to play a Game 7 in the Finals kinda stops any chatter about him not occupying that hallowed position atop a sport with several legendary players through the past 70 years or so.
