<< 1997 1998 1999 >> -------------------- August 31, 2004 Michael Jordan: 1998 NBA Most Valuable Player
Born: February 17, 1963. Brooklyn, New York, USA. College: North Carolina NBA start: 3rd overall pick in 1984 NBA draft. Size: Height:6'6" - Weight:200lbs MVP stats: gp:82 - mpg:38.8 - ppg:28.7 - rpg:5.8 - apg:3.5 - fg%:46.5 - ft%:78.4 Team standing: Chicago 62-20, first in Central division. Claimed NBA title against Utah 4-2. Comments: The Bulls couldn't quite live up to the standards they had set for themselves, but even despite their numerous "C" games, they were good enough to be #1 in the East. Michael Jordan almost had to be voted season MVP. His heroics in the previous season's finals proved that he can never be discounted - though Karl Malone too did have a superb campaign. The confidence payed off as he did a double take of last year's finals performance - and retired. -------------------- << 1997 1998 1999 >> Back to MVPs' list Back to NBA almanac |
