His offensive repertoire was most refined in the mid-'90s
His offensive was improved but his decline in defense was more pronounced. His assists went up because of the type of players he had as a supporting cast.
quote:
He was more efficient.
He was a marginally more efficient shooter from the field, not from the free throw line though.
quote:
His PER was highest from 1992-1995
PER doesn't measure defensive performance.

that's when he won his championships
That's also when Jordan was out of the league and he had his best supporting casts.
quote:
The first time he won the championship he was the only superstar on the team.
True, but he had a damn good supporting cast in Thorpe (near All-Star level PF), Maxwell, Smith, Horry, and Cassell. His teammates stepped it up big in those Finals against the Knicks and made it hell for their guards/wings.
You're wrong about this. There's more to the game than PER.

There wasn't a decline in his defense. In 1992-93 his Defensive Win Share was 8.0 and in 1993-94 it was 7.9, the second and third best of his career. Don't tell me you're only looking at his blocked shots averages?
To add to that, his overall Win Shares for those two seasons were 15.8 and 14.3 respectively, BY FAR the best of his career.

Better FG%, TS% (or total shooting %, if you will) and eFG%. Better across the board.

Defensive statistics are factored in. Which should matter to you since you're only using blocked shots to measure his defensive prowess.

Jordan has absolutely nothing to do with this. They were in different conferences.

You're an idiot, Gamecock, as usual. I've actually watched his games and statistics back me up.
