    I am. I mean, they act like this guy was some kind of a Messiah or something. The dude was the flashiest player to come into the league: but hell, magic had 5 championships before he was 29.
    The dude had to retire at 31.
    They talk about the passing of the torch series with the Lakers. That Lakers team had two rookies in Eldon Campbell and vlade divac and worthy.
    Magic drug that team to the finals.
    Magic is way too nice about it: this is not about style points this is about championships.
    And frankly: Hakeem took out a primetime Lakers team and Jordan could never do that on his best day.
    but the point is is that Michael Jordan is the greatest fraud the NBA has ever seen.
    And frankly you could say that about LeBron James too. How many great players does LeBron have to play with to win some championships.

    The bulls fought out of the east to just run the table for that last 3 peat.

    Elements that I might normally agree, I have to completely reverse course because OP is wrong about damn near everything. Damn you OP.

    I ain't never liked Mike Jordan as a person or a player, I thought he was a ball hog most of his career and his overpriced Nike air Jordans and his questionable personality: his whatever money can buy infidelity. And this dude gets a circle jerk documentary. I love Bill laimbeer's ass - eff Chicago.

    Last dance does not excuse the sorry play of Charlotte hornets over last ten years under kemba walker, Batum, and Jeremy lamb.

    Lol, on the contrary, the Bulls showed that all it took for an average franchise is to draft some HOFers...

    Maybe there is hope for Memphis to get another pair of Gasaul Brothers at the same time.....:D

    You should actually be mad at the Celtics and Lakers, they were getting talents left and right without any intervention in the past.

    You have to switch angles, Jordan didn't join the Lakers or Celtics, that is a blessing in itself.

    The Detroit Pistons bad boys concept is much harder to make it come true.... the city itself is blue collar and hard working.

    Nope (not the only one). Although I guess I might not count, as I didn't watch a minute of it. Don't need a BB fix so bad that MJ telling me how great he is is something I need to watch.

    Jordan likely has 5 titles by 29 too playing with Kareem, Worthy, etc.

    He did watch it and he rolled his eyes, the emphasis on rolling eyes.

    Smh it's actually a fantastic sports docu/bio. Not only covers MJ and the Bulls but also a great era of basketball.
