That load management sucks all day. Fans come in droves to see their favorite player play. I brings a wrong signal to future players that it's fine to load manage just to keep themselves fresh. Also what Krause and Reinsdorf did sends a wrong signal that the management has unilateral rights to control players actions during game time, specifically how many minutes a player can play.
MJ a real competitor. His heart will determination work ethic all his greatest attributes. What makes him the goat. Not to mention he's the most skilled player I've ever seen and best defensive player and rebounder and passer at his position in the history of the sport. Also the best leader I've seen.

The trade they are talking about at 2:10 mark is Bucks traded aging Legend Marquis Johnson and Junior Bridgeman for young Terry Cummings and Ricky Pierce. 2 old guys about to fall off for 2 young up and coming All Stars! Thanks Clippers this trade and getting Jack Sikma from Sonics made late 80's Bucks a force of nature! Early 80's Bucks was carried by Marquis and Bridgeman this was a passing of the torch.
Rick Barry is one of the best small forwards of all-time and Bill Russel (the greatest combination of mind and athleticism in the history of the game) is just an hair above Michael Jordan as the Greatest Player of all-time.
Bill Russell is one of the best to ever do it & a pioneer of the sport. However, he rarely had to carry the load of other all-time great players. Jordan, Wilt, Kareem, etc were not only the team's best defenders, but they were also the primary scoring options on their teams. That was rarely the case for Russell as he was often the 3rd (or lower) on the team.
RIP BILL RUSSELL..We will miss you!

Well, we know that Russell would certainly agree. lol!
Bill Russell is one of the best to ever do it & a pioneer of the sport. However, he rarely had to carry the load of other all-time great players.
Jordan, Wilt, Kareem, etc were not only the team's best defenders, but they were also the primary scoring options on their teams. That was rarely the case for Russell as he was often the 3rd (or lower) on the team.
Rick Barry is also a much better play by play announcer than I would have expected.
The Bulls' whole ball club was unathletic and lazy...MJ was playing five positions,Reinsdorf and Krause knew and hated it!
Jordan would not have gotten along with Greg Popovich very well 23 lived to play and win
I think Pop would have let MJ play as much as he wants. MJ knew his body and trained for the grind of the season at a high level.
It's a Bull run!
