I’m talking about what he is wearing now. It’s definitely not up to times. I haven’t seen a seashell necklace in over a decade.

Fair points.
He was a dick and that likely doesn't work with everyone but it worked pretty damn well.

When Jordan said “There might not be an I in team, but there is an I in win”
I’m generation x and Im flabbergasted I’ve never heard that phrase before.

My favorite parts were definitely Dennis Rodman.
Dude celebrated Scottie Pippen returning to the lineup by taking a 3-day booze trip in Vegas to do drugs, party butt-naked, and bang Carmen Electra.
He managed to 1-up himself by taking time off during the middle of the NBA Finals so he could take part in a WWF and wrestle with Hulk Hogan.
Nobody could really say anything about him tho, because when it came time for tip-off he was ready and played his butt off.

I like how they glossed over that asskicking Shaq and the Magic put on the Bulls.
It's obvious and there's no argument Jordan is the greatest. Like his teammates say, yeah he was a jerk and an a-hole, but he wanted to win and if you wanted to win you were welcome to put in the work and win with him.
Almost done watching this over the past week and it's been fun to go back to the 90s. The world was so much better back then. If nothing else, the politics. Jordan explains it so well about just focusing on his craft, frick getting involved in a Senate race in his home state or anything else.

He was putting in the work for a lot of years and before Phil Jackson showed up for business he hasn't proven anything beyond he was a volume scorer. The Celtics and Pistons would make them quit.
But you said it best, for all of MJ's scoring prowess, he wasn't much of a teammate or human being. That documentary further alienated his teammates even more. MJ slapping threatening to slap Grant on that plane was science fiction. That was never Jordan, all 6'6" and 200 lbs of him. He constantly cheated on his family, was a habitual gambler that nearly cost him his NBA career. He won't speak to Barkly to this day because he criticized the job he was doing in Charlotte.
People can take their heroes where they find them, but the only thing I could ever do with MJ is to enjoy his basketball skill, the rest of him was all ego.

Oh his early days were obviously just scoring. I always chuckle about what ever he scored on the Celtics. Guarantee you Bird and the gang laughed all the way to the next round. They stomped out Jordan and the Bulls.
And then the Pistons kept it going. That shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that watched the NBA even in the least bit.
I grew up on 80s NBA basketball and you had to be tough in the playoffs. Jordan took long enough to learn that lesson.

that will be lebron's final nail in the mj coffin.
after retirement he will take over a team as gm and lead them to a title
he's been doing it for years already.

you stupid fruit loop, go watch this and see how absolutely laughable the NBA is now.
You have guys, Lebron included, dribbing into defenders and flailing about and the refs are calling fouls each and every time. Hell, the Lebron foul the defender doesn't do a damned thing to him.
THAT is you all time great?! That dude is a pathetic whiny bitch would be ground to dust in all previous eras. He would be a laughingstock.
The NBA is a shadow of itself now. It's pitiful.

So, like me, you actually watched the games. If Phil hasn't gotten that ball out of Jordan's hands and started it moving they were going nowhere fast. Jackson put in the Triangle offense and on a different level they were attacking defenses. Otherwise, he was a bigger, better Allen Iverson.
Phil Jackson did the exact same thing for the Lakers. Kobe and Shaq were getting nowhere until he organized a plan of attack. The triangle was the ultimate sharing is caring offensive approach. Kobe Bryant before that would do just what earlier Jordan did, shoot you in or out of games. Phil Jackson was the genius of both those teams.

I was lucky enough to see a Bulls game at the old Chicago Stadium in 1992 and while it didn't have the amenities of new arenas it was the loudest few hours in my life. Unbelievable crowd noise in that old place.

shite talking Isiah.

Maybe it's just me, but what stood out to me is that Jerry Reinsdorf came off like a gigantic piece of shite.
Basically spent the entire documentary attempting to enhance his image, take credit for the good, dodge blame for any bad, and letting a dead man take the blame for that team breaking up.
Reinsdorf is a notoriously cheap owner, both in the NBA and MLB. He knew damn well he wasn't footing the bill for those guys to come back. But he tries to let Krause, a guy who's dead and can't defend himself, take the blame.
And just lol at the absurd, fictitious reality he spun about how he tried to talk Pippen out of signing that deal.
The most laughable aspect was how Reinsdorf spends the entire doc basically acting like he was some low level employee with the front office who was just a passive observer to the drama and had no power in any situation.

Phil’s genius wasn’t tactical game design, he was just the goat at working with whatever egos showed up at his doorstep, using them for the best without trying to change anybody.
A lesser head coach would have a hell of a time watching Rodman do Rodman things and not do the authoritarian thing and try to “do something”.

You guys need to do yourself a favor and watch it. I also passed but decided to watch the first episode this last weekend and ended up binging the entire series. It was fabulous.
Sure they glossed over some of the marginal shite but hey, it was supposed to be about him and that's understandable. There is no question that he is the greatest and it's going to take someone better than LeBron to knock Jordan off the throne. Dude was wired like no other. Wished I had watched it sooner.
