That's one of those questions that sports fans can debate endlessly. How do you measure it? Time played? Points scored? Turnovers? Or the stakes — was it a regular season game, or a playoff?
ESPN has a great breakdown of Jordan's career stats. Argue away. Among others making cases for various lowlights is Sportster, which suggests that a sure-thing contender for the questionable honor of Jordan's Career Worst has to be the 1992 playoffs against the Knicks. In Game 6, Jordan took 25 shots, but only scored with nine of them. The Bulls lost that game. On the other hand, his mojo was back for Game 7, when he scored 42 out of the team's 110 points for the win.
He had another off-night during playoffs, this time against the Utah Jazz. He took 27 shots; he scored 22 points. Even worse was his performance in 1997 against the Miami Heat in the playoffs. On May 26, he played just 45 minutes, and tallied one assist. That's it. He made nine out of 35 shots that night — including a miss on all eight from the three-point line. Not a great night, by any standard of measurement.
