The Last Dance on ESPN

[WarEagle24]

Has anyone else been following this documentary? Very well produced. It shows a side of Jordan that many people had never seen before.

I think it is a great documentary and brings back a lot of great memories during that time.. Jordan is the Greatest Of My Time Hands Down!!!

Agree completely!

[BPenrod]

Jordan is the Greatest Of My Time Hands Down!!!

Yep, but not all time.

I've been following it...didn't get to watch last night's episodes yet - but will this week.

I was born in '84...so I grew up watching Air Jordan...it's neat to look back and see all of things I missed as a kid

[mysuzytoo]

I've been watching. I recorded parts 5 and 6 last night and will watch today. Really good stuff!

It’s great for the generation that never saw Michael play. However, MJ had total control over every aspect of the production. All video shot was never to be released without his permission, he had final say on everything. So, to say it is a documentary is not true. Ken Burns makes documentaries, this is something far different.

I work with a Tom Brady super fan boy, maybe he saw this and brought up the question of “who’s more clutch” Brady or MJ? Of course he believes Brady is better.

They were both great in crunch time, but I will take Larry Bird...LOL. It’s a stretch to compare two great athletes in 2 entirely different sports.

I maybe alone on this, but Ken Burns makes snooze fests. I've tried watching his stuff multiple times, but they just drag on for so long.

Well, ESPN is advertising it as a documentary mini series.

Well, that’s because they produced it.... Do you think a real documentary allows the subject to control every aspect of the production?

[Bassman Ia.]

I have watched every episodes. Things haven’t changed—— the media has always been azzholes. Last night it was good to see And hear Barkley and Ewing‘s views on those days.

[Cajun Skeeter]

Yep, watched all 6 episodes. Good stuff. I have always been a huge Jordan fan.

Didn’t know MJ had complete control over this. But only watched a little. Some rough language

There was a discussion about this subject on the Dan Patrick Show. It was basically, “Documentaries are done without input or control of the subject, otherwise it is an infomercial.” I call this show good entertainment, but not a documentary because of the way it was produced. No biggie, but call it what it is.

[sc419795]

Yes, been watching. I grew up in Chicago. Was a great time to be a Bulls fan during the 6 championship run!

[dylanl]

I've watched every episode. I grew up a huge Jordan/Bulls fan so I've been looking forward to this for awhile. I'm glad we have something to watch while no other sports are happening!

[chaseerry]

Look forward to it every Sunday now.

Great documentary on Jordan and the Bulls. I got to see MJ play many times and he is in fact the GOAT
