The Last Dance

[snap infraction]

i enjoyed episode 6 b/c i was a big charles barkley fan. he was my fav player growing up. i was a lil disappointing that the documentary didn't mention that one of phoenix's top players, cedrick cebballos was injured in the western conference finals. he was averaging 20+ pts that season and i think the suns would have defeated the bulls if he were able to play.

My observations from episodes 5 and 6-----

1)Jordon had/has a serious gambling addiction. Watching him pitch coins with the security guy was funny, especially when the security guy won and taunted Jordan a bit. Dude does not like to lose at anything.

I have a friend who has played golf with Jordan a number of times.
He claims that while MJ is okay, he is not a great golfer.
Put his competitiveness together with the gambling issues on the golf course where he is not that good and my friend claimed it was like taking a lollipop from a child to bet during the round.

After finally watching 10,
Ive come to the conclusion that anyone who thinks LJ is better than MJ, obviously was to young to appreciate MJ when he played. Jmho

You aren't alone in that opinion.

I started watching the Lance 30 for 30 last night. He makes MJ look like a saint. Holy smokes!

As amoral as anybody I've ever seen...he'd make a great politician. Or football coach.

MJ is the goat without a doubt. but the players in the league today are superior than the players in the league in the 80's and 90's.  it's way more difficult for lebron.

I won't argue that the players are superior physically because they are but I would certainly argue the point that they are superior overall. Far better shooting and fundamentals (e.g. less turnovers) back in the 80s and 90s than today... FAR better. But regardless of time frame, Jordan was head and shoulders better than the rest of the league during a time when the talent pool wasn't as diluted as it is today. And if that wasn't enough, he made his teammates better along the way, as The Last Dance chronicled.
