Shaq did it in 99-2000 with the Lakers.

Jordan did it for all 6 of his titles.

I find this fascinating.

What it says to me is that if your team is centered around one guy scoring A LOT - you better hope that guy is the best center ever or the best player of all time (with leeway for LeBron)

Basically - that man better be dominant to an extreme.

Because of this, I don't think it's worth it for teams to invest in shoot first guys like Durant/melo/harden/going back all the way to players like Dominique Wilkins...

Anyway - that's all.

nice stat. handily jibes with basketball lore on it being about more than basketball.

unless of course Jordan shows up.
