What’s amazing is bird also finished 2nd 4 times as well as 1st 3 times. He was as dominant in the 80s as any player was in any decade. People outside of Boston and la tend to forget how great he was.

Jordan with a 33 8 and 8 with 3 steals and 31 PER then follows up with a 34 7 and 7 with 3 steals again on 31 PER in an era defined by lockdown defense and not winning MVP has to be the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Maybe after Wilt not winning MVP with 50 and 25 😂

Basketball is much more than box score stats. But, Magic had pretty stats too those years.

The Yellow highlighting is kind of annoying, or the should be another colour to symbolise lead the league just not the best of the four/five being shown.
