Mike shot 41% over the course of the 1996, 1997, and 1998 finals

. The Bulls didn't ever face a team that was anywhere near as good as these Warriors from 1991-1998, and they never faced zone defenses, which Mike himself has said wouldn't have allowed him to have the career he did. The last 3 title teams in Chicago had a pair of offensive liabilities in the starting lineup in Rodman and Harper. Against a great team that's allowed to use zone principles, that would have meant a trouble for Chicago. Mike had a knack for showing up in big games, but he had his stinkers too. He went 5-19 in game 6 of the 1996 finals with a bunch of turnovers, he shot I think 7-22 in game 7 of the 1998 ECF against Indiana, the
Bulls were less than a minute away from game 7 of the finals in 1993 and 1997 before other players made the plays on both ends to win it, as well as Portland blowing a 15 point 4th quarter lead in game 6 in 1992. Takes a team effort to win it all, and nobody is flawless late in games. Everyone messes up at some point.
