If this documentary was actually real.. then MJ's real reputation would be Messier than anybody would ever imagine! N if it weren't for Pipp- zero rings 👌
@@artofficialintelligence2875 Basketball is a team sport, off the top of my head, I can't think of any one team that won a championship with only a single HoFer. Pip was great, but not the unicorn Jordan was, so I believe with some other HoFer to compliment him, Jordan could still win some rings.
Art Official Intelligence Jordan won his first playoff series when Pippen only averaged 7.9 points per game lol. Jordan was also the MVP, defensive player of the year, scoring champion, and steals champion that same year. You’re just butthurt so naturally you’re in denial.
Stone Chen ur abs right I thought it was "tell Scottie to do his own documentary and i WONT be there for it" But now i see it says the opposite... anyway ur abs right its the ultimate Team Sport and ur abs right Jordan is the Best to ever lace em up (No Debate!) But being that basketball (like every other Team sport) requires a Full Team effort.. i found it puzzling (not surprising knowing the type of guy MJ is) that Scotties 2mins out of 10 hours of the series was spotlighted as a Great Player.. the rest of the series painted Scottie as this sorta selfish, unreliable player when He was SOO MUCH MORE!! So yes Ur right MJ may have some rings but not 6, and not without Scottie as a Teammate.. thats just my opinion.
It was supposed to be about the bulls as a team, yes mj was the main part but he controlled all the footage that was released and only allowed certain ppl to interview an he had to clear everything. If it’s about mj life then his kids and wife of the time are a big part of it. He just doesn’t want the real dirty out there. Which I hate, if you’ve made riches off of fame then that’s life an cameras will be everywhere. He’s lucky he didn’t grow up in the same era as LeBron, with social media mj would of been screwed. Lebron has never had real negativity ever even though there’s cell phones and what not everywhere. OneLove
Thank you for all the Scottie recognition. Clearly The Last Dance decided it would have been better to utilize Scottie's screentime by pointing out every mistake instead of highlighting why he was also great.
What about Ron Harper ? Am I the only being in the universe who noticed that there was virtually no reference to Ron ? As far as I remember, he was not only a starter but an essential member of the team as well.
Harper was like the league's best over-sized defensive point guard. He was an important peace to the Bulls' super team. For Jordan to not have anything in the documentary about him is disrespectful
Totally agree! I thought the same thing when watching it. Also, the ending of game #6 against The Pacers, when MJ fell and it kinda looked like a blown call by the refs. I remember the media hyping it up at the time, but wasn`t mentioned in this...
Also, Kukoc (95-96 Nba sixth man of the year) got like 2 minutes, and was cut out of the legendary photo in favour of Kerr... guess because nowadays Kerr is a public figure. Don't get me wrong, I love shooters, I love Steve Kerr but his contribution to the team cannot be compared to Longley's, Harper's or Toni Kukoc's
I think It was a marketing decision. Kerr is still a visible and current face in the league because of his time with the Warriors. It was a way to grab the attention of younger viewers who aren’t aware of the Bulls history in the 90’s.
Kukoc is from Europe,so they don't care.....do not forget how Scottie and MJ treat him... there are always two side of coin,one when camera is on and another one when camera is off.....but public like showoffs and they story
1992 was such a huge year for MJ that they left out a lot of things in episode 5. The Knicks taking the Bulls to 7 games in the playoffs, Michael Jackson's "Jam" music video, the Bulls trying to win 70 games, no Drexler interview, etc...
@William Allen They didn't even cover that in the Dream Team documentary. Also, I saw an interview where the director of The Last Dance claims that he has a source who said that the player being considered from the Pistons was Dumars, who had made the All-NBA 3rd Team in '90 & '91.
The Last Dance didn't do Scottie any favors and that makes me sad. He said there is enough material for a second season, and given how well this was recieved, I hope they go through with it.
Another thing they left out, but maybe not that important was MJ & Michael Jackson JAM video, probably he (or nobody) wants to be linked to Jackson nowadays
Why the hell not!!!! Because 2 white guys lied on him so therefore it must be true. Yeah I forgot what country I live in 🙄 Now seeing that Michael Jordan lied about Isaiah Thomas now noone will want to be linked to him now 😜
@Mahoneytheduke Duke Who the hell said he touched kids??? Oh, white people said so so it must be true. Tried and convicted without evidence or conviction. Only in America. Some things never change. You do know that accusations, no matter how many, doesn't make you guilty. He had his day in court and WON!!! Now he's gone and two money hungry losers who once defended him now want money. You people are a trip.
Exactly!!!! The director left out 4, 3 & 2. I remembered those moments. No wonder Scottie & Horace are ticked off. Maybe Scottie need to make his own documentary and call it "HIStory".Oh yeah you forgot to mention the fight that happened during that Knicks games before that bullshit called the ref gave to Scottie.
most of these 'BIG' things left out can be seen other MJ and Bulls documentaries....The Last Dance was meant to cover aspects that has not been covered in past docs.
This is a documentary. Watch jordan’s post press conferences. You’ll see how he gives credit to his team mates all the time. Don’t try to sound like the rest of the media by also leaving information out
I like how Karl Malone responded when he was asked about how it felt when he played Michael Jordan . He said, I never seen it as playing “Michael Jordan “. We were playing the Chicago Bulls. No disrespect to MJ , but it was never just MJ. It was the bulls who won those championships.
or, pippen could just have passed the ball to kukoc (the moment he became stagnant). i dont really see what changes so much when kukoc moves inside. then pippen is at kukoc's spot, and then what? doesnt look like he's gonna get a much easier shot there. he got stagnant before that, when both kerr and kukoc were in the corner. later kukoc is shortly free to catch and shoot, but doesnt get the ball and has only very little time to move. yes, he should have moved further but even if he moves with kerr, pippen is, as said, "just in the corner".. what i can see they could have done differently is to have both kukoc and kerr not there to begin with. but i guess the play wasnt designed. to call it "messed up by kukoc" is thus too big a stretch to me. had it really been messed up by kukoc, phil would have written sth different in his book.
All the points are valid other than Kukoc messing up the play before that last against the Knicks. He didn't mess it up, and that had nothing to do with the next play. During that season Kukoc hit several game winning shots and he was a far better shooter than Pippen, so it made sense to draw the play for him.
1- The Van Gundy story happened the previous season, in the regular season. So it had nothing to do in the documentary. Funny how people think it was a pro-Jordan documentary. They just didn't go into the details of the championships or the games (not even the great Jordan games), except the last one I believe and they weren't talking about statistics. The doc was about the big picture of an amazing story and the main character was (and rightfully so) Jordan. Otherwise, I can also tell you this: Did you know that the 1998 Bulls supporting cast is the worst scoring supporting cast ever in nba champion history? Jordan won in 1998 with the lowest scoring supporting cast ever in nba playoffs history (shot clock era). That's what you call carrying a team, but did they talk about that? No. Why? So, I think those criticisms are unfair, I think Jordan has been portrayed worst than Pippen (there's pretty much nothing you can do about his basketball exploits) overall. At least with Pippen, it was facts. Things that nobody missed if you were a fan in that era. With Jordan, there was a deliberate will to make him appear a certain way...there were some interpretations etc. I think Pippen is a great guy and a great player but everything they told about him were facts. And he had the chance to say something, he said " I would do it the same way, I don't regret it". I think at the end of the day, they made MJ teammates look like great players and that's not really true, relatively speaking.
I was surprised about leaving out the Van Gundy thing out as well. I wish they had done an epilogue episode about MJ playing for the Wizards. I think his second return was partly due to him not returning to the Bulls for the 99 season.
Correction: Jordan wasn't married to the game. He "divorced" it twice, went to play minor league baseball, loves gambling, etc. He did say some nice things at Kobe's memorial though.
This is why Pippen isnt happy with the documentary. So you can show him sitting out the last play when Jordan wasnt even in the Nba but you cant even dedicate 30 seconds to that heroic comeback against Portland. The documentary is only interested in depicting him as a sidekick
Hang on, some of this stuff has been in other MJ productions. I can't remember if it was Air Time or Come Fly With Me but that Portland story has been told. Is he supposed to tell every story again in any new material?
Totally agree . Best video of yours so far. By the way in game six Howard Eisley score 2 pts before time expired and reff didn't count and few min later Ron Harper score 2 pts after time expired and reff did count those ...ofcourse game flow would be different if things will go that way but its a 4 points different on the game that Utah lost by one
What documentary were they watching. They spent an entire episode jocking Scottie Pippen and Jordan gave him the highest praise possible. They showed how Pippen apologized to his team and they all got pass that. His teammates got plenty of praise. They went out their way to show how important the team saw Pippen
Great recap! In general i liked the Last Dance, but I felt many times during the series, the Bulls team mates were downgraded or not mentioned, i liked Scott Burrell but much more screen time, than, Harper or Longley... Kerr was major in the last episodes while pointing out 11pts from him,and not mentioned the same game Kukoc 21... i missed small things like why did Randy Brown was shouting in: What Time is it??
I said it before and I will say it a million times...That´s NOT a documentary it´s an AUTOBIOGRAPHY! Whenever the main focus of the film has so much control over the outcome, it stops being a documentary and it becomes an autobiography. Period!
I used to be the biggest MJ fan. But his Prima Donna attitude is his downfall. It’s all about him. Sometimes he forgets about Phil. Sometimes he forgets about Scottie. He looks down on his teammates. Will put other greats down unless they bow to him. No thanks.
Last Dance has only 10 episodes. If there were to be everything - all the stories, all the players, all the key moments, all the ex-wives, ....., for the years 1984-1998, then Last Dance would have to have at least 100 episodes. Most of the stories missing in Last Dance are on RUclips (matches, interviews, legendary trash talking, reactions of participants and possibly their versions of events .....) - your videos are proof of that. Would I like it all in Last Dance and have a documentary of 100+ episodes? Hell yes. But it has, unfortunately, only those 10 episodes. Unfortunately. But thank God at least for them.
Great comment! It's never good enough for some smh!! Not saying this in regards to the video maker cause he's just pointing shit out so nothin but respect to him, I'm just saying in general. I'd love to see the full 100hrs as well lol! I know 99.9% of the stories but I'll watch them 100% of the time
One other thing, The Last Dance "changed", was the fact it took the Bulls 4 years to finally beat the Pistons in the playoffs. The documentary made it seem like the 3rd time was the charm that the Bulls got passed Detroit. But they lost with Doug Collins twice, and then Phil Jackson... the 4th year though, is when they "put them in their rear view mirror" (as one of the players said in TLD).
The thing about not interviewing Luke due to budet reasons is BS . Its not like to cost of flying to Australia is is a huge expense , worst case they could have done it in other ways . As an Australian we are all very pround of Luke's achievements and he was very underated as a player
They even left out the stolen jersey game and when he wore number 12. Like come on how do you leave that out. Or even the two famous duels against Mutombo. When he shot the free throws eyes closed and the game when MJ finally dunked on Mutombo.
Agreed! The Last Dance should have been far longer especially during this iso restrictions and no NBA atm. Can't get enough of how great of an athlete MJ was.
I wish they would of extended beyond that a little and showed what happened to the players when the team was dismantled. Like Scottie finally getting paid in Houston, Kerr to San Antonio and winning a chip in ‘99 etc. Don’t have to go beyond that but just a little vs the text on screen we got at the end. As a Kobe fan I also wish they would of added him in more as he and MJ were close friends. I know the doc is about MJ but more side stories not being overused would of been nice.
In that 4th quarter rally vs. Portland in Game 6 of 1992 Finals, Bobby Hansen made a huge three-point shot and then made a steal right after that to ignite the rally from 15 points down. One other thing too was during a game in January of 1991, to acknowledge MJ scoring his 15,000th career NBA point in Philadelphia two nights earlier, the Bulls management had PA man Ray Clay announce Michael FIRST during the iconic Bulls introductions. That was the first and ONLY time MJ was not the last player introduced during Bulls home game in his playing days with the Bulls.
Point #6: Was in his HOF speech... Which has 19 million views. And he had told history 1000 times elsewhere. So... But last time you thought that Michael Jordan's yellow eyes from his alcohol consumption, where he wasn't confirmed at all, and Michael Jordan always had yellow eyes, but, your videos are pretty inaccurate and not really fact-based. Point #4: Could it possibly be that Michael would have made his teammates much better because he drove them so in training and during the game? And a thousand times Michael said that without Scottie Pippen there would never have been a Michael Jordan and he also praised Rodman in the documentary, he praised Steve Kerr and no idea who else. So that's completely pulled back by the hair. And you may forget that it's Michael Jordan documentary and not Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, Phil Jackson documentary. They gave all the interviews, but the documentary is about Michael Jordan. You are really looking for the hair in the soup just so that you can post any video. Absolutely ridiculous. Point #3: MJ has said well over a thousand times, even in his Hall of Fame speech, that without Michael Pippen there would never have been a Michael Jordan. In 1997, when they won the championship and became Jordan's Finals MVP, he brought Scottie Pippen over and both of them lifted the MVP trophy and held it together. You are really looking for the hair in the soup just so that you can post any video. Absolutely ridiculous. Point #1: Why Should You Interview Michael Jordan Ex-Wife? The emphasis is on ex-wife, she was once his wife. And she got hundreds of millions of dollars from the divorce, and Michael Jordan was right to sign a marriage contract with his new wife, where she would get much less if she got a divorce. Why should you interview such a GOLD DIGGER woman? and why should she want to participate personally? my god if you are so interested in her, then write her yourself and for an interview with her. You only get the video views and only the clicks here because you are making a video about Michael Jordan, if it weren't for Michael Jordan you wouldn’t get as many video views at all, but you’re just complaining and grumbling, gosh, really a real envy
@4:40 Yes, as much as they bring up the Air Jordan scored all 9 Chicago points in the 4th qtr of 93 Finals Game 6, before Paxson's trey (which was assisted by Jordan to Pippen to Grant to Paxson), the 92 Finals Game 6 was the "others" led by Pippen and the bench who ensured a Bulls victory and second straight championship... They were remarkable against Portland and it is one of my favorite BULLS moments.
MJ himself repeatedly praised Pippen and said he would not have been as successful without Scottie. The last dance went into detail about Pippen, Rodman and Phil backgrounds so the fluff stuff which anyone who has the “his Airness” dvd or other similar 1 hour dvd or vhs about Jordan and the Bulls first three-peat already knew about.
The only thing about Jordan when it regards Scottie pippen in the last dance is he showed him not going back in the game the ending of game 7 against the Knicks but he left off the horrible hue hollins call against pippen in game 5 against the Knicks that caused the bulls that game 5 that's really weird to me.
Seams to me I read somewhere that members of the Bulls (Jordan) didn't want to acquire Toni Kukoc, and didn't Toni come to the Bulls when MJ was off trying to play baseball?
1. I wish they would’ve included the Van Gundy story in the doc. The footage of what Gundy said is out there and would’ve been a brilliant story to tell. Always wanted to know what Jordan said to Gundy when he was screaming at him at the end of the game. 2. If the mass majority of people all have the same story but one is off, isn’t the one that’s off usually the lie detected?? Either way, we all know Jordan’s started with Nike and eventually became its own brand. 3. Depending on who you are as a person may effect the way you watch the series. Whereas we know this is aimed around the life of Michael Jordan, he very much gives props to his teammates throughout the doc. He said “People can say I won 6 championships but I didn’t do it without Scottie Pippen.“ He called Dennis Rodman the smartest player he ever played with. Gave Paxton his props for hitting shots consecutively and he’s highlighted for taking the final shot in the 1993 championship final. A lot of players are shouted out and given their props if people choose to actually LISTEN to what is being said. 4. Jordan’s ex wife not being in the doc could be down to her not wanting to do it. That too could be a reason.
Something else left out was how Dennis shutdown Shaq when the bulls played the Magic. He didn’t even get a mention about that great defense in the 1996 eastern conference finals
I thought it was the last dance referring to the final championship season. We know it's about Jordan overall but Phil Jackson called that final season the last dance for a reason. He should have named it something else then.
Being a die hard Sir Charles fan since the mid 80’s, this was great doc. Not my idol growing up, but Jordans easily the G.O.A.T. - #Anyonecanshoot-Ittakesbrainstorebound!#Moundroundofrebound #SirCharles
The biggest person left out was Luke Longley. He was the starting centre for the last 3 seasons, and he was not included. Very poor form because he and MJ just clashed. They were very different characters and that didn't suit the Jordan brand. 😢

He sure was, and Ronnie had been a star in Cleveland.
Right I don't uderstand that Harper most underrated player to many people are sleeping on Harp and his game

This truly is the most underrated hoops channel in YT. Hope you keep this going for a long time bro!
RUclipsr: They left out a lot on MJ's documentary.
MJ: Make your own documentary.
Casey saying "the mailman doesn't deliver on sundays" just doesn't have the same effect as hearing Pippen say it.
I know, I sounded so white 😆😆
Obvs not because Pippen was the one who originally said it.
Pippen’s baritone adds to the punch of the line IMO.

He was good but the way people talk about MJ like he didn’t have no flaws! So glad something like this is out
That pippen foul would be called every time in today's NBA 🤣🤣
Jordan just a great player who only won when he had the best team with the best coach. Great he is... but don't forget his elite teammates

I think at the end of the day, they made MJ teammates look like great players and that's not really true, relatively speaking.
I was surprised about leaving out the Van Gundy thing out as well. I wish they had done an epilogue episode about MJ playing for the Wizards. I think his second return was partly due to him not returning to the Bulls for the 99 season.
The van Gundy thing was in it, watch it again
I thought they did mention the conman quote... and those that are upset can always make their own documentary
orlando woolridge...he's the guy that scored 20+ game alongside michael jordan in his early years
Correction: Jordan wasn't married to the game. He "divorced" it twice, went to play minor league baseball, loves gambling, etc. He did say some nice things at Kobe's memorial though.
If he "Divorced" it twice...he must've been "married" to it...
🙄
This is why Pippen isnt happy with the documentary. So you can show him sitting out the last play when Jordan wasnt even in the Nba but you cant even dedicate 30 seconds to that heroic comeback against Portland. The documentary is only interested in depicting him as a sidekick
They didnt include Mike tyson and Michael jordan confrontation.
Hang on, some of this stuff has been in other MJ productions. I can't remember if it was Air Time or Come Fly With Me but that Portland story has been told. Is he supposed to tell every story again in any new material?
Boy, you really hate Kukoc, don't you
I just commented above, 47 sec before end Pippen misses easy 2p, then Ewing scores over Pippen, then Pippen misses again, and its Kukoc fault hahahaha
Tony actually averaged 15.2 against Pippens 15.7 in the 1998 Championship. Without him the Bulls would not make it that year.
Can you do a list of players that are retired but could potentially comeback like Monta Ellis
I hope you like my idea!!!
Totally agree . Best video of yours so far.
By the way in game six Howard Eisley score 2 pts before time expired and reff didn't count and few min later Ron Harper score 2 pts after time expired and reff did count those ...ofcourse game flow would be different if things will go that way but its a 4 points different on the game that Utah lost by one
Re #4; I disagree. I thought Paxson, Kerr & Pippen got a good amount of credit for their contributions.
I've just discovered your channel. Watched a couple of vids. I'm really liking what I've seen so far, excellent content.
What documentary were they watching. They spent an entire episode jocking Scottie Pippen and Jordan gave him the highest praise possible. They showed how Pippen apologized to his team and they all got pass that. His teammates got plenty of praise. They went out their way to show how important the team saw Pippen
Great great points mike was selfish hell talking about pippen 🙄💯
Great recap!
In general i liked the Last Dance, but I felt many times during the series, the Bulls team mates were downgraded or not mentioned, i liked Scott Burrell but much more screen time, than, Harper or Longley... Kerr was major in the last episodes while pointing out 11pts from him,and not mentioned the same game Kukoc 21... i missed small things like why did Randy Brown was shouting in: What Time is it??
The things you've mentioned are left out because it's a MJ documentary Scotty can mention the mailman in his documentary
I said it before and I will say it a million times...That´s NOT a documentary it´s an AUTOBIOGRAPHY! Whenever the main focus of the film has so much control over the outcome, it stops being a documentary and it becomes an autobiography. Period!
I agree, those are ALL significant issues not covered or left out. Jordan seems to be a control freak, especially how he's perceived...
I don' agree about the teammates but it would have give him more credibility; at the end MJ is still remaining as The GOAT
Oh, they left out Luc Longley took a dump before game 4. Paxson woke up at 8 am on game days. C'mon man. Can't put everything in.
Pippen said he would not have done anything different from the 1994 playoffs and that’s what bothered a lot of people.
I used to be the biggest MJ fan. But his Prima Donna attitude is his downfall. It’s all about him. Sometimes he forgets about Phil. Sometimes he forgets about Scottie. He looks down on his teammates. Will put other greats down unless they bow to him. No thanks.
Great work Casey! I’m shocked I just came across your channel.
Last Dance has only 10 episodes. If there were to be everything - all the stories, all the players, all the key moments, all the ex-wives, ....., for the years 1984-1998, then Last Dance would have to have at least 100 episodes. Most of the stories missing in Last Dance are on RUclips (matches, interviews, legendary trash talking, reactions of participants and possibly their versions of events .....) - your videos are proof of that. Would I like it all in Last Dance and have a documentary of 100+ episodes? Hell yes. But it has, unfortunately, only those 10 episodes. Unfortunately. But thank God at least for them.
Great comment! It's never good enough for some smh!! Not saying this in regards to the video maker cause he's just pointing shit out so nothin but respect to him, I'm just saying in general. I'd love to see the full 100hrs as well lol! I know 99.9% of the stories but I'll watch them 100% of the time
Harper is right this was pretty much Come Fly with Me 2.
I agree, couldn’t believe they didn’t even touch on the “mailman” line. Coldest, cleverest trash-talk line in NBA history.
There was No Legends without their great Team Mates..
One other thing, The Last Dance "changed", was the fact it took the Bulls 4 years to finally beat the Pistons in the playoffs. The documentary made it seem like the 3rd time was the charm that the Bulls got passed Detroit. But they lost with Doug Collins twice, and then Phil Jackson... the 4th year though, is when they "put them in their rear view mirror" (as one of the players said in TLD).
The thing about not interviewing Luke due to budet reasons is BS . Its not like to cost of flying to Australia is is a huge expense , worst case they could have done it in other ways . As an Australian we are all very pround of Luke's achievements and he was very underated as a player
They even left out the stolen jersey game and when he wore number 12. Like come on how do you leave that out. Or even the two famous duels against Mutombo. When he shot the free throws eyes closed and the game when MJ finally dunked on Mutombo.
Agreed! The Last Dance should have been far longer especially during this iso restrictions and no NBA atm. Can't get enough of how great of an athlete MJ was.
I wish they would of extended beyond that a little and showed what happened to the players when the team was dismantled. Like Scottie finally getting paid in Houston, Kerr to San Antonio and winning a chip in ‘99 etc. Don’t have to go beyond that but just a little vs the text on screen we got at the end. As a Kobe fan I also wish they would of added him in more as he and MJ were close friends. I know the doc is about MJ but more side stories not being overused would of been nice.
I totally agree. I thought we’d see a clip of MJ on the Wiz at least.
In that 4th quarter rally vs. Portland in Game 6 of 1992 Finals, Bobby Hansen made a huge three-point shot and then made a steal right after that to ignite the rally from 15 points down. One other thing too was during a game in January of 1991, to acknowledge MJ scoring his 15,000th career NBA point in Philadelphia two nights earlier, the Bulls management had PA man Ray Clay announce Michael FIRST during the iconic Bulls introductions. That was the first and ONLY time MJ was not the last player introduced during Bulls home game in his playing days with the Bulls.
Point #6: Was in his HOF speech... Which has 19 million views. And he had told history 1000 times elsewhere. So...
But last time you thought that Michael Jordan's yellow eyes from his alcohol consumption, where he wasn't confirmed at all, and Michael Jordan always had yellow eyes, but, your videos are pretty inaccurate and not really fact-based.
Point #4: Could it possibly be that Michael would have made his teammates much better because he drove them so in training and during the game? And a thousand times Michael said that without Scottie Pippen there would never have been a Michael Jordan and he also praised Rodman in the documentary, he praised Steve Kerr and no idea who else. So that's completely pulled back by the hair. And you may forget that it's Michael Jordan documentary and not Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, Phil Jackson documentary. They gave all the interviews, but the documentary is about Michael Jordan.
You are really looking for the hair in the soup just so that you can post any video. Absolutely ridiculous.
Point #3: MJ has said well over a thousand times, even in his Hall of Fame speech, that without Michael Pippen there would never have been a Michael Jordan. In 1997, when they won the championship and became Jordan's Finals MVP, he brought Scottie Pippen over and both of them lifted the MVP trophy and held it together. You are really looking for the hair in the soup just so that you can post any video. Absolutely ridiculous.
Point #1: Why Should You Interview Michael Jordan Ex-Wife? The emphasis is on ex-wife, she was once his wife. And she got hundreds of millions of dollars from the divorce, and Michael Jordan was right to sign a marriage contract with his new wife, where she would get much less if she got a divorce. Why should you interview such a GOLD DIGGER woman? and why should she want to participate personally? my god if you are so interested in her, then write her yourself and for an interview with her.
You only get the video views and only the clicks here because you are making a video about Michael Jordan, if it weren't for Michael Jordan you wouldn’t get as many video views at all, but you’re just complaining and grumbling, gosh, really a real envy
They left out Rodman kicking the cameraman in 97!
@4:40
Yes, as much as they bring up the Air Jordan scored all 9 Chicago points in the 4th qtr of 93 Finals Game 6, before Paxson's trey (which was assisted by Jordan to Pippen to Grant to Paxson), the 92 Finals Game 6 was the "others" led by Pippen and the bench who ensured a Bulls victory and second straight championship... They were remarkable against Portland and it is one of my favorite BULLS moments.
Great Video! Again.
MJ himself repeatedly praised Pippen and said he would not have been as successful without Scottie. The last dance went into detail about Pippen, Rodman and Phil backgrounds so the fluff stuff which anyone who has the “his Airness” dvd or other similar 1 hour dvd or vhs about Jordan and the Bulls first three-peat already knew about.
GREAT STUFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Scottie is one of the greatest teammates of all time.. Jordan lucky to get him so early unlike lebron
Agreed!
The only thing about Jordan when it regards Scottie pippen in the last dance is he showed him not going back in the game the ending of game 7 against the Knicks but he left off the horrible hue hollins call against pippen in game 5 against the Knicks that caused the bulls that game 5 that's really weird to me.
Seams to me I read somewhere that members of the Bulls (Jordan) didn't want to acquire Toni Kukoc, and didn't Toni come to the Bulls when MJ was off trying to play baseball?
Ron Harper! Where is he?
I wondered the same thing while watching it.
8:33 KAAHHRRL MALONE
Why did I click on this?? Did you even WATCH the doc??? #6 and #2 and #1 were all in there exactly as much as they should have been.
1. I wish they would’ve included the Van Gundy story in the doc. The footage of what Gundy said is out there and would’ve been a brilliant story to tell. Always wanted to know what Jordan said to Gundy when he was screaming at him at the end of the game.
2. If the mass majority of people all have the same story but one is off, isn’t the one that’s off usually the lie detected?? Either way, we all know Jordan’s started with Nike and eventually became its own brand.
3. Depending on who you are as a person may effect the way you watch the series. Whereas we know this is aimed around the life of Michael Jordan, he very much gives props to his teammates throughout the doc. He said “People can say I won 6 championships but I didn’t do it without Scottie Pippen.“ He called Dennis Rodman the smartest player he ever played with. Gave Paxton his props for hitting shots consecutively and he’s highlighted for taking the final shot in the 1993 championship final. A lot of players are shouted out and given their props if people choose to actually LISTEN to what is being said.
4. Jordan’s ex wife not being in the doc could be down to her not wanting to do it. That too could be a reason.
There's so much that could have been added. Maybe leave the rest for the books. At the end of the day it was about MJ and it was awesome.
theres also a story on brown and jordan tug o war between the ball on father's day game/championship
Today's Sunday, POOR MALONE
Kukoc did not mess. He was well guarded?.
Scotties line about mailman was in there
Something else left out was how Dennis shutdown Shaq when the bulls played the Magic. He didn’t even get a mention about that great defense in the 1996 eastern conference finals
*Good video, they are acting like Jordan never played terrible key games and choked*
Its MJ documentary, obviously the story will evolve on his side. Thats why its called THE LAST DANCE of Michael Jordan.
I thought it was the last dance referring to the final championship season. We know it's about Jordan overall but Phil Jackson called that final season the last dance for a reason. He should have named it something else then.
gerat video and details, very clear of the real situation, unique youtouber you are
It seems like on the replay that pippen didn't make contact on that Hubert Davis play
Nice video
Being a die hard Sir Charles fan since the mid 80’s, this was great doc. Not my idol growing up, but Jordans easily the G.O.A.T. - #Anyonecanshoot-Ittakesbrainstorebound!#Moundroundofrebound #SirCharles
The biggest person left out was Luke Longley. He was the starting centre for the last 3 seasons, and he was not included. Very poor form because he and MJ just clashed. They were very different characters and that didn't suit the Jordan brand. 😢
