Interestingly enough, this happened to be one of the seasons when Jordan signed a huge contract with the team after being in low salaries for the entirety of his career.

Incidentally, this happened to be the season where Jordan posted the lowest numbers during the entirety of his career. He averaged 28.7 points, 3.5 assists, and 5.8 rebounds. Stats like these can only seem underwhelming when someone is of the stature of Michael Jordan.

The Bulls had an insane defensive rating of 99.8 thanks to the efforts of Jordan and Pippen. The duo got their ninth and seventh selection to the All-Defensive First Team, respectively.

Despite not being at his absolute best, Jordan turned up during the postseason. He clocked an average of 33.45 points during the 1997-98 postseason. Although Jordan and Pippen might take most of the credit, Dennis Rodman had his fair bit of contribution.
