Michael Jordan:  DWS: 64.13

What can you say about the G.O.A.T.?  From the moment he hit the jumper in the NCAA finals to down Georgetown, M.J. racked up:

Rookie of the Year (1985)

9x All-Defensive first team

10x Scoring Champion

Defensive Player of the Year (1998)

10x All-NBA fist team

5x NBA MVP

6x NBA Finals MVP

6x NBA Champion

14x NBA All-star

3x NBA Steals leader

You won’t get a lot of argument that Mike is the best the game has seen, much of that based on his work on the defensive end.
