Almost every player's averages shrink in the playoffs. When defenses get more physical and teams game-plan for the star player, they are less efficient and score less. Michael Jordan’s stats ROSE in the playoffs. Teams tried to double and triple him to stop him, yet he kept dropping 33-50 on them.

33.4 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game in 179 playoff games. This scoring average is the HIGHEST in NBA postseason history.
