Pretty much the only thing the sports universe has going for the next month. First 2 eps were great but I really just needed a home for this nugget:

The thing where Jordan got hurt his 2nd year and got put on a 7 min running clock each half was pretty wild. Guess the Celtics had a great O but man they had some stiffs on D. Pretty funny seeing the likes of Danny Ainge and Bill Walton trying to check him.
That was very odd to me as well. I guess I never remembered that which I was not really old enough then to care lol

Wild stuff tho, you could tell he was super pissed haha
 
haven’t watched yet - I’ll catch up sometime this week... I did catch a small ad in the corner of the screen on ESPN flipping through channels last night

MJ, Pippen, Rodman, Phil... and Steve Kerr?

why in gods name is that communist being promoted with the rest of those guys?

The fact that they were clearly gunning for a better draft spot is kind of funny too. Pulling him with 30 seconds left in a close game when they had the last possession is probably one of the most blatant instances I've heard of.

This Krause guy is nuts huh? Does all this great work to get Michael all the pieces he needs to win multiple champs and then pisses his legacy away.

Kerr hates America. I’m glad Jordan punched him in the face...

Confession time

During the 93 Finals I was 9. My parents were watching the Finals to pull for Charles. They kicked me out of the room and I had to watch the Finals in the basement because I was pulling for Jordan and the Bulls. I had no idea who Charles Barkely was or why I should have been pulling for him.

The series made me a Jordan hater for about a year. I felt like Charles was as good as anybody in the world for that 92 to 93, Dream Team and Finals stretch. With good reason not everybody agreed with me. As a younger guy I let who I wanted to win and who I wanted to be the best determine who I liked and disliked instead of always appreciating greatness regardless.
 
Feel like we're deifnitely getting a real view into Jordan's character but this didn't need to be 10 episodes. Not complaining htough since there's no other sports to watch. But this ain't as packed full of cultural relevance or interest as the OJ docuseries.

Would've liked to have heard more from the kids .They just sort of popped in the doc at the end just to say that slc was a loud arena and that's it. Part of Michael's whole schtick was that he worked hard and sacrificed being liked to win. Wonder how that applied to his family life

The whole pizza gate thing is pretty unbelievable. Some good stuff on twitter making fun of it.

MJ was so damn cold to Larry guy comes to give him a good game after a brutal gm 7 L and MJ says F you for making it so close go work on your golf game lol.

I think I would have been more of a Jordan fan if my best friend growing up wasn't so obsessed with him. I was a big fan of Olajuwon and David Robinson.
