MVP Record in NBA Finals
The record belongs to Michael Jordan, who is a six-time winner, from 1991 to 1993 and from 1996 to 1998.
Anybody who really loves basket is familiar with His Airness history but, once in a while, it’s good to refresh your memory about his exploits.
His career start was a bit difficult, if we can put it like this: Jordan was constantly criticized because he wasn’t able to bring the ring to Chicago. Things changed when an angel, answering to the name of Phil Jackson, became Bulls’ head coach.
Within two years, the team found its own balance and MJ’s fate, already written, came true: he won 6 NBA championships, along with 6 Finals Most Valuable Player Award.
