First of all.....I love it. Jordan is the GOAT and it seems to be perfect written.

I have also noticed a couple f-bombs dropped. Seems different to be on cable

Maybe after watching this documentary some of the younger kids will realize that mentioning LeBitch in the same sentence as Jordan is blasphemy

Love this documentary... Perfect timing. Anyone know if they rushed this to get it aired or is this like the most perfect timing ever w/ covid19 forcing everyone home?

Jordan was a piece of shit. Would never have won anything without PIPPIN. Lets call him THREE STEP JORDAN. His father was killed, because of him.

It’s solid. Was sorta boring.


Want to hear about Jordan having to retire because he was betting on the bulls lol. Not the baseball shit. And David stern covered it up for him. Doubt they touch on that but we’ll see.

Rather follow Dick Bavetta and how he screwed the jazz out of a championship that year.

This is the part where i would LOVE to know Mob's actual age so we can know if he truly appreciated MJ. I always figured Mob was NO OLDER than 33 years old so probably never truly watched him until OLD MJ played for his local Wizards team

I suppose if you missed out on following the Bulls the 1st time or the subsequent books or other docs on the Bulls then yeah it is cool. Or if you lived under a rock.

Just wasn't really a history lesson I needed. Same with the Celtics/Lakers doc, it has been done to death.

IMAX did this 20 years ago lol

Im under that. I saw plenty. I saw him live when he played for the wizards too lol. Think they played the bucks...was down 1 or 2...and RIP took the last shot he missed.

Started watching in about 95. First finals I have recollection of was the bulls/Sonics.



Kobe still the goat in my book.

Ok. This is why you rank Kobe number 1. You started watching in 95 and Kobe came in 96 and "did his thing". You MUST have loved the Kobe/Shaq dynasty as well. Probably why you took Kobe's tragedy so hard

You missed the "Bad Boys" pistons and then Jordan's bulls finally taking them out.
You also missed those classic eastern conference playoff battles with the bulls (yes, the east was good then) and Jordan being the SOLE reason why many Hall of Famers DONT have rings

Also during that time, players who became STUDS in the NBA, played in college for at least 3 years and made college hoops awesome as well

Bobby Knight on Jordan after he coached the Olympic team and before Jordan played in the NBA - the best player he's ever seen play basketball

“The kid is just an absolutely, great kid. If were going to pick the three or four best athletes I’ve ever seen play basketball, he’d be one of them. I think he’s the best athlete I’ve ever seen play basketball, bar none. If I were going to pick people with the best ability I’ve ever seen play the game, he’d be one of them. If I were going to pick the best competitors that I’ve ever seen play, he’d be one of them.So in the categories of competitiveness, ability, skill and then athletic ability, he’s the best athlete, he’s one of the best competitors, he’s one of the most skilled players. That to me makes him the best basketball player that I’ve ever seen play.”
