7. Michael Jordan, Chicago Bulls (1995-96)

Some eight years and three rings later, Jordan took home his fourth most valuable player award at the age of 32. Yielding .317 win shares per 48 minutes, Jordan did it all. On a true shooting of 58.2%, including 42.7% from three, he led Chicago with 30.4 points in 37.7 minutes a game.

For the eighth time, MJ led the NBA in points per game. But, he also added 6.6 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 2.2 steals for a box plus-minus (BPM) of 8.6, which placed him 2nd in the league in the '95 campaign.

This time around, Jordan's regular season MVP was followed by a Finals win and his fourth Finals MVP. After this historic Bulls team finished the regular season with a then NBA-record 72 wins, they capped off the year with their 4th title in 6 seasons.
