For all those that like to compare LeBum to Jordan....................How about averaging only 3.5 points in the fourth quarter of the six NBA final games?
What a goofy comparison. What were the scores going into the 4th quarter, how much were they up by? Did he need to score more or did he get the job done earlier in the game? If he only averaged 3.5 and they lost all six finals or even most of them then that would be bad but THEY WON THEM...He didn't need to score more.
Notes:
Jordan also scored 18 consecutive points, all in the fourth quarter, against the New York Knicks on November 21, 1986.
Jordan is the only player in NBA history to record back-to-back 50 point games in the playoffs, scoring 50 and 55 in Games 1 and 2 against the Cavs.
