Current Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers interestingly picked legendary Michael Jordan over one of his former players in a virtual head-to-head bracket which featured random NBA players.
The 62-year-old coached the Boston Celtics for nine seasons where he worked with one of the franchise legends Paul Pierce. Later, Rivers went on to work for another two seasons with the 2008 NBA champion at the Los Angeles Clippers as well.
However, in a virtual head-to-head, Rivers decided to pick Jordan over Pierce. Interestingly, he earlier picked Chris Paul over his current player Damian Lillard but later picked Pierce over the current Golden State Warriors player.
Jordan remains one of the greatest players in the history of the NBA. He ended his career after playing 1,072 games where he averaged 30.1 points per game, an incredible feat to say the least.
Jordan finished his career after winning six NBA titles (1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997 and 1998) and all of them came while playing for the Chicago Bulls. In all of those title-winning campaigns, he was awarded the NBA Finals Most Valuable Player.
On the other hand, Pierce won a solitary NBA championship and that was with the Boston Celtics. In that title-winning campaign, he was named the NBA Finals MVP as well.
