Jordan being rusty is part of the issue, but people gloss over the Bulls lack of interior depth more than anything from the 94-95 season. They had nothing down low after Horace Grant left. Not necessarily for scoring, but for defense and rebounding.

On a per game basis, their top two rebounders were Scottie Pippen (8.1) and Michael Jordan (6.9). Will Perdue was 3rd (6.7). he was also the top scoring interior guy, and that was after Jordan, Pippen, Kukoc, Armstrong and Kerr.

The biggest factors to the Bulls sweeping the Magic the following year were Jordan being back 100%, the addition of Dennis Rodman for interior defense and rebounding, and Horace Grant getting injured early in that series. I still think the Bulls take Orlando in 5 or 6 with a healthy Grant, but that wasnt a minor loss for the Magic.

Sounds like Jordan relied on his team as a crutch and without multiple HoF players around him couldn't do shit.
