Before the 1987-88 season, the Chicago Bulls began building a championship calibre team around Jordan. Scottie Pippen was acquired in a draft day trade and they drafted Horace Grant. That season, Jordan won them all: All Star MVP, Defensive Player of the Year and Most Valuable Player (for the first time). Jordan averaged 35 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.9 assists and 3.2 steals a game.
