Although they are still considered one of the best teams in basketball, the Bulls were at their best between 1991 and 1998, when they won all of their championship titles. Much of their success in that era is due to head-coach Phil Jackson, as well as to players like Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan. The latter is one of NBA’s all-time scoring leaders, with over 32 thousand points scored in his career. Michael Jordan is considered by many to be the greatest basketball player of all times.
