It's crazy how this doc is attacking a man that isn't alive to defend himself instead of exposing a cheap owner. And there's a lot of those in the NBA.
Reinsdorf made a billion, got 6 rings, snaked his way out of paying anyone, broke up a dynasty and got to pin it all on a dead guy. The guy is lower than dirt
@@fabricio2467 they're focusing on Krause because he was the one that told Phil Jackson that he didn't care if they went 82-0. He was not coming back to coach the Bulls, that idiotic statement along with others are why people hate him. Just look at whenever he was introduced anywhere in Chicago, he was always booed loudly.
Why does it matter? You treat ppl accordingly!! Every time mj lost, he shook hands.....so now zekes excuse is I ain't shake yal hand because Boston didnt shake ours?? That's like your girl cheating on you, because her X cheated on her.....dont make sense!! Settle whatever on the floor, and be men afterwards smh
IT and the Bad Boys were not favoured to win championships. So when they did and beating MJ , who was the poster child of the NBA, to get there, the league and the bandwagon media never forgave them. Handshake or not, there is no rule anywhere that says a man should be nice to anyone after losing a game. Yes, it shows good sportsmanship but it is the losers prerogative. It is not a crime, nor is it a rule. That we are here today talking about handshakes twenty something yrs after the fact just shows how petty MJ is and how uncritical the media is.
Stephen Searles II He doesn’t get over anything. Remember his saltiness in his hall of fame speech @ being cut from the varsity squad😂 he uses it as fuel but still!
Charles' delivery of "I've never been in the casino by myself" was perfect. The pause after made you think he meant that he had someone with him, to keep him in check... but then he pulls the swerve on the next line, lol.
As I was watching this Doc which is getting better and better with each episodes. It was crazy how players played defense. Every shot MJ and the Bulls made there were always crazy defense trying to stop them and vice versa. Jordan's defense was beautiful as his offense. I really think Jordan is the GOAT. Easily.
Zeke didn't make any political comments. He cosigned a racial comment that Rodman made about Larry Bird. Regarding Kareem, the man didn't say much during his playing days. He actually faced a lot of scrutiny for refusing to talk to the media. Kareem didn't start making political statements until recently. Stop trying to revise history.
Barkley? Live him or hate him, he's going to tell it like it is. He's never been the one to sugar-coat anything we need politicians like Barkley instead of these fake smiley people, that take us for granted.
I am so glad that Barkley bought up Jerry Reinsdorf the owner. In the documentary, it seems Reinsdorf is "getting a Pass" and Krause is getting all the blame. Reinsdorf deserves blame too. Reinsdorf just didn't want to pay all that money to Jordan, Pippen, Rodman, and even Phil Jackson.
Of course, the only big name to defend Isiah is Charles Barkley, because that's his thing. He's not afraid to speak his truth. There was SO much left out of "The Last Dance".. Even little things, in the last episode, they cut 2 seconds of a Converse commercial because Isiah was in it. Also remember, MJ wouldn't agree to do this unless he had final say (final cut).. I'm sure there was a lot of editing in his favor, and a lot against Isiah's. Even MJ said Isiah Thomas is the 2nd greatest point guard of all-time. Look at Isiah's record (regular season and playoffs) head-to-head matchups against MJ (36-28), or against Larry and Magic (both awful defenders, and Magic could barely shoot). Speaking of Magic, when he was on ESPN, he was saying not only should Isiah have been on the Dream Team, but he went on to say how only Isiah could still have the Finals record, scoring 25 points in one quarter, and repeated it, BUT, didn't mention he did it on one ankle (and a lower back injury). On a few plays, they put Magic AND Michael Cooper (great defensive player), but it didn't matter. The NBA wasn't going to allow that performance to de-throne the Lakers, so we all know about "The Phantom Foul". And here is what gets me. Many who comment (not just online, but the media) were too young to watch games. Highlights are there for sales. Listen to the people who watched all the games, but take the time yourself to watch the games. They are on RUclips and other places.
Those 80's athletes ran from the 60's athletes who did speak on political things. Jim Brown Kareem Bill Russell etc... The 80's dudes just wanted to take their money and run
MJ wasn't asked to be a politician. He would've been an influential black man who as a kid, along with his family and countless other black families in North Carolina, had to close ranks and become each other's village against the systemic racism in their state that Helms representated. Anyone having a problem with that has no issue with systemic racism.
Back when the Dream Team was formed and the Thomas question came up Barkley clearly had no love for him saying we have Stockton and Magic, we don't need him . He needs to quit complaining and lets be honest nobody likes him. Barkley and Malone went to Stockton , who was bothered a bit, to assure him they were happy he was there and not think about leaving. Barkley no longer speaks that way but he did when it mattered.
Exactly. They want to change their tune now that the NBA is a woke-a-thon. They act like Isiah's time in NY as an executive wasn't a total sh1t show either It's funny how sh1t shows just seemed to follow Isiah.
Reality. Even if mj shakes Thomas's hand he still wouldn't be on the dream team. Just bad blood no matter what. The team would have been divided behind the scenes. Just saying. Peace
It's not that they couldn't survive it. It was just a different time, they would have adjusted the same way people do now! It's all relative in the end.
I would have asked colin, do you as a caucasian white male have a responsibility to speak against the white establishment, my point is both questions are ignit, a person speaks on issues if it's in their hearts, some people dont wanna speak on issues, they just wanna do their jobs
I think it’s great when athletes/celebs share their opinions on social issues. I don’t think it’s a requirement though. If you aren’t informed, or just don’t care, then just say nothing. You end up looking like a hypocrite like Lebron with the China thing.
My problem is "honesty" is often subjective. You're usually discussing "your" truth, not that person's truth, who knows the back story to their own choices and actions. People don't like "the Truth" because it's more like "based on what I think, THIS is the truth". It usually comes with unsolicited advice, and that's why people often don't like "the truth". Let alone, your typically unskilled way of delivering "that truth*. People think the way they are out of the box should just fly off the hinges, in the face of"the truth" and that's bullshit. Even when you feel a sense of responsibility to discuss difficult conversations (race), that doesn't mean that all those who look like you must sign up for army of your race. Sure, there's context to consider, people who fought for you in the past, and any that is well and good- but in the same breath we talk about first amendment rights and freedom. If I want to discuss race, that's my business. If I don't want to discuss race, that's also my business. I don't owe anyone ANYTHING. Neither did Michael Jordan. You can't disregard a person's greatness because they don't want to do what YOU want them to do.
At that point it's not truth it's an opinion. Truth is something that is objective, for example the earth revolves around the sun, that's truth. An opinion would be me saying that the earth is flat (I don't believe this). But I agree nonetheless with your points
What sucks about Barkley is that he is lost in his own world. If he was honest with himself, He really would pick and choose who and what he talks about in his job.
What idiots fail to realize is Jordan couldn’t financially afford to make political statements when he first got into the league. LeBron was driving a Hummer to high school and had a 90 million dollar Nike contract on the table in high school..... NBA and NFL players are wildly overpaid right now so they have the financial freedom to make political statements. Plus the times are better now then in the 80s and 90s. Anyone can google the things Jordan has done for Black community..... he just don’t run around tweeting and bragging about it on social media 😂
I think all this publicity had ironically been great for Isiah. So many people bringing up how great he was & athletically deserved to be on the dream team. This has been so great for Isiah 's legacy. Also owner jerry reinsdorf was very loyal to Krause bc he took the hits for reinsdorf not paying people .
Colin said something here that bugs me. Yes, he does not know what a black person goes through. However, the problem with the world is that not enough non-black people speak up when they see and/or hear something wrong against blacks (or any race). They don't have to be black to do that. They should just speak the hell up and keep speaking until people listen. Just like men, of any race, should speak up and speak loudly if they see and/or hear about injustices being done against a woman/women. So being white doesn't mean you just stay silent and sit back. And yes, blacks should speak up too about how Asian Americans or other minorities are being treated.
@@realasitget3552 Yeah in '92 the Bulls went 67-15. Those teams were younger and more athletic and much better offensively. More importantly, Jordan was at his peak back then.
Every player now should give at least 10 percent of their contract to Jordan. He's the one who paved the way for player's getting these outrageous contracts now.
He didn't get a bad rap...I seen the Pistons in real time don't act like this was a nice guy that got over looked they used to low bridge guys knocked Doc Rivers teeth out just to name a few incidents it was trash basketball like the raiders version of basketball based on that style of play no he shouldn't have played on that team and nobody liked him he only has himself to blame period
The uproar about MJ and his gambling was partially because it stood out so drastically against the golden boy image he had prior to the gambling talk going public and people may not want to admit it but when somebody is constantly winning at everything and has no public flaws people start hunting for things to tear then down eventually. Once people had something they latched on to the thing they finally had. The other aspect is that the numbers that he was gambling to normal people are absurd but they don’t keep in context that the numbers he was wagering seem crszy to normal people but in the context of the income he was earning they were perfectly manageable amounts to be risking. For instance, the check he wrote to Slim for $57,000 is a crazy sum of money to be gambling on golf. But that amount of money in the context of the income he was earning was the equivalent as somebody who earns $50,000 wagering around $82. Even if he were wagering $1,000,000 that’s equal to the $50,000 earned wagering around $1,450. That is a more impactful thing but again it’s still something he can handle in the world of income that he was in. So that’s always something that will play into the perception of gambling and that it will come across as worse because he was wagering large sums of money but those sums were sustainable in his world because his financial world isn’t anything like the normal humans financial world. And clearly after all this time he’s worth has now eclipsed around $3B so it’s probably safe to say that it hasn’t been out of control to really damage his life even if the sums are incomprehensible to the average person.
People just didn't like him and wouldn't want to be around him. That's all. You're a damn good commentator, but do you think your peers want to hang out with you for two months straight?
Isiah Thomas addressed social ills. The black on black crime, he spoke on the racism in the NBA, and he foughtcfor players to have tge exorbitant salarues they have whuch cut the agents down. Hes hated for thst.
It's crazy how this doc is attacking a man that isn't alive to defend himself instead of exposing a cheap owner. And there's a lot of those in the NBA.
Reinsdorf made a billion, got 6 rings, snaked his way out of paying anyone, broke up a dynasty and got to pin it all on a dead guy. The guy is lower than dirt
I was thinking the same thing FIRST episode.
I agree I hate when people talk about someone who isn’t alive to defend himself
Krause was a p.o.s.
He had a Napoleon complex and prevented the Bulls from doing a lot more than they could.
Yeah, why don't they be straight up and talk about jerry reinsdorf. They both deserve criticism
He changed the subject from Isiah Thomas once Barkley defended him.
Charles is 1000% right about Reinsdorf!

What negative thing did he do. No controversies so I'm guessing you wanna be mad at him for having a bad back ?
Keith Moore like what?
Daniel Clark he has a daughter that he has practically ignored and didn’t shake Detroit hands when they beat his Celtics
Why don't they say Larry Bird was wrong for not shaking the Pistons hand??
Eric Holmes It’s the “Great YT” narrative. 😂
Because Isaiah Thomas didn’t have a big problem with it. MJ felt disrespected when Thomas didn’t do it.
Then it shows Mike is a petty man.

Imagine if Bird wasnt badly hurt with his back during the dream team practices ... yikes
Imagine if Dominique Wilkins hadn't ruptured his achilles and had played on the team. Drexler replaced him.

@@therealestmc85 You can do both if you choose to!
Your're exactly correct, Keep in mind that this was the start of the league starting to pay more. No making political statements.
Maybe people wouldn't have anything to say about Isaiah Thomas if he would keep his mouth shut.
The context is that Helms was a Senator from his home state of NC. Like MLK said, there comes a time when silence is betrayal
So MJ has to do what other people tell him to or what other people think he should? Why?
MJ wasn't asked to be a politician. He would've been an influential black man who as a kid, along with his family and countless other black families in North Carolina, had to close ranks and become each other's village against the systemic racism in their state that Helms representated.
Anyone having a problem with that has no issue with systemic racism.
He could have just said what LeBron said about Tamir Rice. What MJ said was dismissive.

Quote of the video....Being black is stressful - Charles Barkley 2020
The uproar about MJ and his gambling was partially because it stood out so drastically against the golden boy image he had prior to the gambling talk going public and people may not want to admit it but when somebody is constantly winning at everything and has no public flaws people start hunting for things to tear then down eventually. Once people had something they latched on to the thing they finally had.
The other aspect is that the numbers that he was gambling to normal people are absurd but they don’t keep in context that the numbers he was wagering seem crszy to normal people but in the context of the income he was earning they were perfectly manageable amounts to be risking. For instance, the check he wrote to Slim for $57,000 is a crazy sum of money to be gambling on golf. But that amount of money in the context of the income he was earning was the equivalent as somebody who earns $50,000 wagering around $82.

So that’s always something that will play into the perception of gambling and that it will come across as worse because he was wagering large sums of money but those sums were sustainable in his world because his financial world isn’t anything like the normal humans financial world. And clearly after all this time he’s worth has now eclipsed around $3B so it’s probably safe to say that it hasn’t been out of control to really damage his life even if the sums are incomprehensible to the average person.
