ESPN's The Last Dance |OT| MC: 88 | A 10-part "Citizen Kane-like biography of Michael Jordan", premieres April 19 on ESPN and Netflix globally
- Thread starter RastaMentality
- Start date
I hope it covers his time playing for the Toon Squad. Not enough people talk about that part of his life.
I just went to the ESPN app and searched The Last Dance and they were just sitting there, and I watched them for free. I don't think I'm subscribed to ESPN. I'll have to check again tomorrow, either way I watched both episodes.
Edit: I'll just check now I have no idea how I watched these lol

ESPN+ is probably the most purposeless streaming service. They have no idea what to do with it.
In Celebration of the 20th Anniversary of 'Space Jam,' Take a Look Back at This ESPN Docucomedy
Tuck into '30 for 30: A Space Jam Game.'

needs to be the focus of one of the 10 episodes TBH
Anyone else shocked at how old J.A. Adande is? Lmao I ain't realize he's been around that long.
I wonder if this documentary is gonna go to the reasoning why MJ temporarily retired to play baseball.
Or will we just never find out

Not finding it on Netflix yet...
Oh fuck, I just realized it's outside the US only.

Kind of silly that we even had the LBJ vs MJ arguments, some people really needed this doc. as a reminder, I don't like comparing players in the first place but MJ was just a different animal.
Obviously there are 8 episodes left so who knows, but I kinda wonder if Horace Grant will really figure in this at all given the project's focus, and the story of the 90's Bulls without him just feels kinda weird. He was really fucking good in his prime (and better than late 90's Rodman as a third wheel to Jordan and Pippen imo)
They mentioned him a little when discussing Krause drafting him, but given this is focused on that 2nd three-peat team, I doubt it. Time has healed some wounds, but I know a lot of Chicago hated Horace when he left. We all remember the Magic carrying Horace on their shoulders when the Magic beat the Bulls when MJ came back in 95.
Arent the generally accepted reasons his grief over his father's death, or to avoid a one year suspension for gambling, or some combination thereof?
Man, reading all the comments, this sounds hype as hell. Cannot wait for another 12 hours and this work day to pass to finally be able to watch this.
If you have the espn app on your phone or on ps4 you can watch both parts and a replay of the bulls celtics playoff game in 86 on thr watch section of the app. I first tried watching it with my account signed it for espn plus and it worked. Same with being signed in through Xfinity.
I'd be super interested in the Orlando FA fallout though and what Reinsdorf/Phil/MJ/Pippen/etc. had to say about it. Just feels weird to ignore it totally when Pippen/Grant was actually a more common OG Bulls slash line than Jordan/Pippen.
yep. was thinking too, they could do an entire hour on this game alone and jordan's career-long relationship with MSG. which is crazy that ten episodes doesn't seem like enough to capture everything! but that's reality. imagine doing this shit as a rookie! smfh
Is anyone else getting Wizard vibes when they cut to MJ wearing blue during the interview segments?
If you like soccer Plus is fantastic and easily worth the $5 a month.
Made even doubly so where Jordan didnt get ownership as intended
I was looking into getting ESPN+, and it seems worth it just for the 30 for 30 documentaries.
Also, I wish ESPN would upload the music cues/montages on YouTube because they were fantastic
it did!, and i watched almost every one of those games lol
Those are deep fakes. It's amazing what you can do with technology.
It's going to go by too fast(just like the Bulls dynasty), especially with them playing 2 episodes a week.
We moved to Chicago in early '86 when I was in 2nd grade and did we love the Bulls. It sounds stupid, but as fun as those championship teams were, especially the first 3-peat, those years of frustration at the hands of the Pistons were just as fun. We HATED Isiah Thomas and Bill Laimbeer with a passion.
Boston kid checking in... still to this day, we can't say Bill Laimbeer's name in our house. My dad will go livid about him.
I've softened on Isiah and Dennis for obvious reasons, but I still think Laimbeer is a douche.
This was really good, can't wait for the next episodes. Loved seeing that Celtics / Bulls footage, wish there was more from Larry.
Also feels like one of the first "group events" I've taken part in since the lockdowns.

There has always been a subsection of NBA fans that believed MJ retired bc of some antigambling conspiracy.
just watched and man. this is going to be a ride. Already see the GM being a menace. and MAN the jokes they had on him no wonder he thought he could do it again by himself without a once in a life time talent, a generational talent like Pippen and a once in a generation head coach lmao.
