I could have watched 20+ parts of this documentary it was fantastic.
Yeah it feels so weird that it’s over now. Now what do we do?
Real talk 👍
I haven't watched one single episode but tbh I kinda already knew what they were talking about. I lived thru the era so I saw it live first. Didnt need to see it when i lived it
Paul wid it there are some behind closed door incidents you should watch it honestly.
@@paulwidit3792 me too but so much stuff i saw we didnt bc its first time they have many moments on cam
I’m 22 and never saw Jordan play. This documentary showed me why MJ is considered the goat
🐐
If you're 22, I'm sure you saw Kobe.... Now take Kobe's intensity and multiply it by the highest number you can think of. I've only seen him play live 4 times. I just wish they had HD tv back in the 90's!
But it didn't show him get swept in the first round TWICE? And what about the other 10 years he played in the NBA. He ain't no goat. Bron the goat. Open your eyes bro
Bron had lost more finials than Jordan won. Jordan ain't one of the goats without PIPPEN
@@williambaldwin6241 2011 finals that's all I gotta say
This was the greatest sports documentary I've ever seen.
Its probably the only one uve seen
It is definitely the 'Michael Jordan' of documentaries...figuratively and literally.
I agree
‘Hardest to follow documentary I’ve ever seen’. Why not just do it chronologically? So much jumping around between years.
Jay said what documentaries?
Steve Kerr's story broke my heart💔
I lived through the 90s bulls, first time I heard Kerr's story.
1st time hearing what happened to his dad
Shaun Wallace I never knew about his dad, how sad and heartbreaking 💔
@@sicily7220 me as well
@@jacquettediggs4633 same
Jordan’s interaction with Malone and Stockton was shocking. After killing them in Game 3 Jordan still shook their hands and gave them a little side hug.
Malone goes into the Bulls bus after the championship and gives Jordan a handshake and says it was poetic. Deep moments.
I never knew that happened. It was surprising to me too because back then I'd say most of Chicago respected but hated the Jazz.
True Sportsmanship what Isiah and pistons never had.
DiCaprio said it was poetic not Malone
Exactly. People want to act like back then players hated each other. Not true. They hated each other on the court for the most part they respected each other. They didn't need to be friends or buddy buddy. They were gladiators.
@@jasonkim6606 I wouldnt show sportsmanship to a guy who essentially called you fraudulent champions either
Last dance deserves an Oscar!
It probably will win because of bias, that’s what a lot of the award shows do. This documentary isn’t Oscar worth, trust me I’ve watched some incredible documentaries
Emmy*
Relax
shaunbir klair L
shaunbir klair Like what? Tiger King? 😂
The mind of the GOAT. That's what I learned.
Yessir
And he should have played more seasons.
@@tomiturkki979 he def would've gotten at least 3 more rings
Thats what i tell people, IF MJ would’a stayed longer in the NBA he woulda had more insane records & rings ect ect
Yes the mind of mj is what I was analysing the most throughout this documentary. I learned that he is the most alpha guy I think Ive ever seen, he never switches off and always dominates the room. I learned about his crazy work ethic, his borderline mental disorder competitiveness, and his ability to stay in the present moment and focus, hence his clutchness
Already knew MJ was the GOAT but now I just see why people loved him so much. If I was alive during that time he’d my favourite player so easily. Used to think lebron was the goat until I learnt my history
The first NBA highlights I watched for basketball was the 98 finals game 6 on vhs that my aunt recorded at the time I replayed that last shot so much it just gave me chills. Jordan just gives you the feel hes the goat and tbh its not close
ZBT I respect your opinion, but I never saw him play so I’m not gonna be a sheep and follow the crowd. My GOATS are Lebron and Kobe Jordan isn’t on my list
shaunbir klair yeah u a cornball goofy mcnoofy 😭😭
Lol I applaud you not that many people could have said what you just said. A lot of players today especially LeBron James the media is hyping them up for example there's been so many players in the past that was built like Zion Williams
@@ShaunbirKlair24 I respect you
This was the best docuseries I’ve ever watched. Man, those bulls had some crazy issues that would never ever occur in todays game. Dennis Rodman for goodness sakes likes to RASSLE
iOnsteins Engineering bro they let kawhi load manage
@@LanceG007 lmao that's nothing
@@Kingsley114 Michael Jordan is and has always been my favorite athlete. But I have to agree. OJ Made in America was the best documentary I have ever seen.
This was next level better then ojs
@@Kingsley114 OJ most def committed the murder. He got away from being a black fella. A well known black fella who doesn't want to be around black people
MJ just had that persona to match the talent and yes he made millions later on in his career but he deserved and worked hard for all that, He’s work ethic is impeccable and that shows in every performance and game he played the level of respect that many other athletes is well deserved. He is the innovator and the only GOAT!!
Jordan made his money with Nike.... he wasn’t as concerned about nba salary. (Not to mention sponsors from McDonald’s, Gatorade, hanes.... ect).
The way it ended when MJ sat on the bench with his cigar and get up and walked away, classic, i got up and give him a salute job well done 👏 👏👏
I applauded!
I am 39yrs old and i will never forget the 96,97,98 bulls. I have watched lebron,kobe,kd,kawhi but man.... i wanna be like Mike!!!🐐
Preach!!!
I'm with you man.. 41yo and saw these games live on NBC.
Only kids say LeBron is the GOAT because they don't understand what we saw
phil g no you can still watch full games here on UA-cam. PRIME Lebron has another 5 years to separate himself to solidify himself as the goat without question. Us old heads sensationalize Michael because of the nostalgia it creates. Lebron is the better basketball player though
phil g as much as I want to say mj, Lebron is better. Longer prime and a higher peak
@@untilyoupuke higher peak lmao FOH
Still thinking about The Last Dance episode 7 ending. Absolutely incredible.
Same! Amazing ending. Goosebumps
Best part
If you don’t wanna play that way, don’t play that way....... Break.
There is no fact to prove that Michael Jordan is the number 1 the Lakers
Had to watch the ending again after your comment.
This documentary is super inspiring. To see MJ’s drive to be the very best at what he does. All his sacrifices. MJ is undoubtably the GOAT
The greatest Sport's Documentary ever tbh...
It’s good but it’s not better than OJ Made in America
The Kids Nice yes, oj made in America was amazing
Nah, definitely not. So wish MJ wasn't involved because his bias and snubbing of the importance of certain players was so apparent.
Hoop dreams is up there. With both being basketball it’s hard to put one over the other.
facts
It's 2020 and people still want to be Mike let that sink in
2020 and we still going crazy for Jordan’s like it’s the 90’s.
LeBron is still the GOAT though.
@@willritter4076 3-6 vs 6-0 I think the person that has 6 Rings and is undefeated is the goat or unless you're delusional
Will Ritter How can LeBron still be something he never was?
LeBalding is a JOKE
I started following the NBA around 2001 and grew up idolizing Kobe (even tho I hated him back then), T-Mac and especially Vince.
Never understood the hype around MJ and those 90's Bulls tho.
This documentary really showed everything I need to fully respect, what Mike, Scottie, Phil and all the other people involved accomplished at that time.
What the Bulls managed to do, what Jordan managed to do...it's unreal. Truly inspiring.
This 10-part feature was brilliant from start to finish.
Been following the nba since 96-97. I had the privilege of watching MJ put in work. I still remember that swish to win game 6 in 98 lol. Kobe was the next closest thing to MJ. Lebron is more of a Magic/Scottie type in my opinion. MJ just had that aura. He put doubt, fear and intimidation in the minds of his opponents. And he did it not only the MUCH tougher, more physical era, but he did it a Russell Westbrook type energy and on both ends lol. He got a DPOY. Averaged 37 for a whole year!! That's like averaging 50 in today's game lol. Teams were only scoring like 80,90 points a game for a minute there with the bad boy pistons and the celtics were a little dirty, same as the Knicks. The pacers.. to me stats is like money, over time the numbers are gonna rise lol, so you need to account for inflation 😂. That's why what Lebron is doing, an impressive hall of famr career no doubt, but you can't lose 6 finals!! 🤦♂️. If you're going to call yourself the goat smh. 6 and 0 for MJ and you can see all the internal bull he had to get through. Can you imagine Lebron playing those bad bay pistons squads?!? Oh my.. and I know your post wasn't about Lebron but I still say a prime Scottie Pippen would've shut him down!!
you have to include rodman whether he likes him or not in a list is in the sixth position of players who most won titles in the nba
Man I could not agree more! Vinsanity, TMac, A.I., and Kobe were the guys I was looking up to when I first started watching, weirdly enough about the same time. Well said! The G.O.A.T convo contraversy seems to grow even more with time, but I will undeniably crown Mike any time its brought up. Granted I only personally witnessed his game at a much later point in his career.. I will say however, Mamba is the next best thing, in the modern era at least. Simply put... No one, or their likeness for that matter, could hold a candle to Mike's legacy, much less remain as relevant for as long as he has/will continue to.
You missed out on lots of good basketball. The NBA was better before 1999.
@@ejlea The 90s early00s was the greatest era ever.
The Jumpman logo is as recognizable as the Apple logo. I've seen those same MJ plays at least a thousand times. I can watch them a thousand more and never get sick of them. MJ is the most rewatchable athlete ever.
very well said
Definitely agree 100% GOAT debate definitely dead
He's the greatest of all time it's not even an argument - Stephen A Smith
We knew The Last Dance ending was going to end in triumph and admiration because we already knew the actual basketball results from 22 years ago. Michael Jordan is the alpha and the omega of G.O.A.T talk.
Absolutely
MICHAEL JORDAN: I want the Bulls to be respected as a organizations just like the Lakers, Celtics and he did that! Without a doubt! With flying colors!
too bad that ended as soon as he retired lmao. they got unlucky with rose but theyve been terrible ever since
We respect those teams not the organization
@Marcus Schultz MJ did his part - indeed at the time of his retirement from the Bulls, they were mentioned in the same breath as those franchises
76ers, he said also
@@yallaretrippin8604 Naw they are very well respected Globally more then Lakers and Celtics because of MJ. When Rose was bringing the Bulls back to glory you had people overseas from places you never heard of saying "The BULLS ARE BACK!!!"
I remember Rodman being on WWE but I didn’t know he skipped practice to do it. I was in tears laughing actually watching it & to see him sneak out the back to avoid the press 😂 classic
Nah that wasn't even wwe he went to rival brand WCW 🤣🤣🤣
Here's what The Last Dance gave us
- Management underpaid their players
- Bulls were nobodies before Jordan arrived
- Jordan light up the league with his greatness, but couldn't capture a 🏆 yet
- Jordan matured and nobody could stop him at his peak
- Tragedy happen to Jordan the main character and Bulls moved on
- A spark rejuvenated Jordan's love for 🏀 and he came back
- Jordan's tactics as a leader were brought into light, but he wanted to bring the best out of his teammates potential
- Jordan's game evolved from having one of the greatest mid-range shooting the game has ever seen
- Jordan overcame tough obstacles to become the 🐐
In conclusion, Jordan had a strong work ethic to become the best he can be. He was a flawed character in some peoples' eyes, but still won. Tragedy struck and had to leave the game. Came back and nobody could stop him except retirements🏀🏆🐐
We must’ve not watched the same series
@Marcus Schultz You didn't make a point.
@Marcus Schultz any team is beatable with just 1 good player
Always that 1 dope head who staggers into the comments.
Marcus Schultz the bulls made it to the playoffs before pippin and played the celticss what are you talking about. Before Jordan even came the bulls never even had a winning record
There will never be another MJ
Naw... God ain't finished creating awesome players...@ 70 just hope I live long enough to enjoy another of God's sports Masterpieces.
I will
RON SASANO 💀🤦🏻♂️ wrong
Kobe is the closest to MJ you can get. Bacause Kobe is MJ's student.
there will never be another lebron i can do this all day
As a NY Knicks fan that lived this era, this was a great look inside a dynasty and MJ's drive.
I'll never get over the fact that this championship team was dismantled from within. They deserved to continue and defend their title. SMDH, at both owner and GM that couldn't wait to rebuild
Last dance deserves an Oscar!
ASAP
Review it Q can get an emmy but can’t get an oscar unfortunately
All facts
💯💯💯
I agree
Perhaps, the Nobel Prize.
I'm hoping that this motivates the league today to play harder and with more passion. I'm tired if seeing 135 point games with wide open 3's and open "Globetrotter" lanes.
Z Moe haha especially with their sky high salaries
Unfortunately with the rule changes they've made thats the league going forward. They want more scoring and less defense.
Correct, these commentators today don't do any research. 2000s are the roughest decade sinces early 1970s, this rule changes narrative started one year after Lebron james came in the lead 2004-5 league why in 2003-4 The defensive efficiency rating was the best since 1976 102.5 very important stat field goal percentage was as low as the 70s 43.9 and points as well 93.4. Also Pace 90.0 per 100 possessions. 2000s also lead in blocks and the 3 second violation and zone defense was add after that actually offset the hand checking rule. In 2010 to 2014 the league's defensive efficiency rating was better than the 1990s as well, until 2018 the Pace of the game changes, no like the ridiculous Pace of when Michael Jordan walked into the 103.5 vs 100.2 today. Fans need to do better research before we attempt to use fallacious hyperbole as a narrative.
@Two Three I'm to old now homie...but I wish I could.
@@anthonyanderson9303 That's true, but a good defender can strip the ball or get a clean block regardless of rule changes...the passion just has to be there...I use to tell young kids when I coached, "offense takes practice and talent... defense takes practice and passion"....and defense wins championships.
amazing how one person can inspire billions of people even to this day.
MJ was GOAT before this documentary now he’s GOATE Greatest Of All Time Ever!
Doesnt GOAT “greatest of all time” speak for itself? Why throw in the extra “ever” lol 😂
Facts
@@chrisbeach423 lol 😏😉 we all know that...
Not really, maybe after 100 years or 200, maybe there will be another or greater than Jordan, but believe me it is not Lebron, LBJ could be on top 5 but not the GOAT.
@@rogerflores2145 LBJ is easily top 10. Top 5... we'll see after this season eventually completes but personally he's a top 10 player OAT
"Some can, some can't"
The Utah Jazz has left the chat.
They really tried to take Jordan out the game with Food poisoning smh
5 guys to deliver one pizza. Yeah, something was up. His friends should've eaten the pizza first to check if it was alright.
@Jigga Man major facts
Utah, what do you expect. Lol only black person that should be living in Utah are Utah Jazz players
I highly doubt that. I'm pretty sure that was dramatized. Intentionally poisoning someones food is a criminal offense, not to mention that pizza parlor would lose a good amount of their business.
@@leeqthe2nd721 they tried. It was intentional
The thing that stood out to me the most is when MJ just went up to coach Larry Bird and cussed the man out
Then on top of that he says work on ur golf game 😆
They are friends but that was funny. Also when he told Tex I am going to slide another ring on your finger tonight, that's all you need to be concerned about. Lmbo
That's becuase you love any story that has to do with Michael Jordan where he seems like the guy to you waters
That was a term of endearment . Not confrontational at all. He respected Larry .
They go way back and respected each other... that’s why he could talk to him in that way. Love it!
Didn't want it to end!! This docu is 🔥🔥🔥
I lived in the Chicago area during these championship seasons. It was as epic and exciting as the documentary portrayed. They never lost a Finals, never made us experience that pain. Once in a lifetime stuff.
Couldn’t have agreed more! It was a time to live in the Chicagoland area during this time, watching this great team.
I was a kid at the time. It was magical to watch and experience
I never saw Secretariat, Seattle Slew, Affirmed, and Spectacular Bid race. I wasn't alive yet. But I know what icons they were in racing. I know how legendary Lucille Ball is. You don't have to be in a certain generation to see greatness.
The Last Dance is the best thing to come out 2020
Because Hollywood can’t touch it that’s why
2019 Joker
Better than COVID
It was as better than last year at this time n watching game of thrones.. it was awful
It was as better than last year at this time n watching game of thrones.. it was awful
That documentary could've went on forever really to be honest it wasn't enough!
DId you notice it said the Last Dance SEASON 1?? Is there going to be a SEASON 2,3 ??
This documentary only confirmed why Jordan is the GOAT no question!!!
There's always gonna be a debate because, people are going to say Kobe did that Jordan didn't, or Kareem did this, or Bron did this. This debate won't end
Jamaal Chaudhry it was already confirmed that he was the goat to be honest. Think of all the past and current players that call him the goat that says it all
@@xavierwoodley but its so easy to see MJ is the GOAT I dont have to throw out accomplishments just watch his game he was an artist painting a picture every night. Jordan was just differnt the only one who compares in skill and mentality is Kobe and theres still things kobe didnt have that MJ did like his hands and his hang time and 48 inch vertical
@@antoniogreen9176 The debate still won't end. Because like I said, People are always gonna bring up stuff Kobe, Bron, or Kareem did.
@El Dio I meant to say reinforced but very true
To all the people saying that MJ never beat a 73 -9 team and never faced a dynasty, that’s because he was 72-10 and he was the dynasty
Indeed, That's what I've told people, but I think what people get at is the competition MJ faced. MJ faced guys who were traditional where Centers were under the basket and such. Bron, however he's in an era where Centers can literally everything. So, the issue here that tons of people are gonna say, Jordan didn't truly face anybody, because I think he faced a different team every year he went, meanwhile Bron 7 of his nine trips were against the Spurs and the Warriors all of which were Squads were he wasn't the favorite
MJ is the goat and better than Lebron. But please don’t act as if MJ’s finals opponents were anywhere near as tough as lebron’s. We just saw UTAH score 54 in a finals game. The warriors score that easily in a half.
@@eldio2124 Jordan has beaten the most 60 win teams in nba history inthe playoffs
@@eldio2124 but don't act like lebron didn't have an easier road to the finals. If he played in the west all those years he made the finals. He doesn't make it to the finals all those years in a row.
Stephen A Smith: I've known Jordan for a long time, and this is why he's the GOAT.
When he shot that final shot in Utah, it was an equivalent of thanos getting his sixth stone. lmao
Reinsdorf still has a reputation of being cheap it's the reason ths bulls and sox didnt compete for years sox are lucky the landed big pieces in trades that will finally compete wherever the season starts
Reinsdorf business model is obsolete. Rick Hahn is doing something different on the Sox. Thank God! Let's see what happens with the Bulls.
Moet Chandon there will never be another Chicago Bulls
@@scuppo I hope you're wrong. Reinsdorf is no longer running the bulls. His son is. His son hired a new GM with better rapport with players that happens to be black. He's going with the Sixers process because the Bulls are cheap. The Bulls have a solid core. They need solid role players and coaching to be competitive again.
Jordan says what the reality was at the end of the doc
Michael Jordan was also tired and he could have came back if he wanted to then and the management was smart to start fresh while they were still ahead then
Greatest Sports Documentary ever for the greatest Basketball Player/Sports Athlete ever for the greatest Sports Team Ever!!! 🐐
Even when max isn’t wrong, Stephen a manages to make it sound like he is
Stephen a is max boss. Max have to agree with Stephen A. Stephen A isn't right all the time. Stephen A pay the cost to be the boss. I can't do Stephen A. These are his thoughts only.
Olda Lewis at some point it gets played though. Max basically said the same thing that Stephen A said and he still disagreed lol
the last dance was better than the nba season. need to cancel the nba seasons and do docuseries every year
🤣🤣
Kobe Bryant: The Last Helicopter Ride
@@Julian-xp4ub bruhh still too soon🤦♂️
This season at least. Just give the trophy to Jordan....he wins this season.
This documentary help Jay realize, Jordan really is the GOAT😂
Made everybody change their minds
@Greg A It is not debatable at all.
EBHS00 not everybody the majority knew Jordan's the Goat
Majority knew that earth is globe... like Jordan as the goat....
But there are some people who cherry pick data and claims the earth is flat... like Bron as the goat..
It makes us proud being from The Windy City that MJ and Co in the 90’s dominated the world of basketball... watching and reliving those wonderful years was chilling and emotional! Sadly I doubt in our life time or even next we will see someone as great as MJ and I’m glad those who never seen him play or weren’t even born yet got to see a glimpse of our Chicago Bulls Dynasty! A lot of cities Hated the Bulls for basically beating them! But one thing is for sure the love that MJ has the respect that MJ has is Universal and in the game of Basketball 🏀 MJ is above them ALL
Watching this made me realize that players nowadays don't have that drive except for a few to get that ring. They need load management to get through the season while mj played 44 min when he was sick
Agreed. Aside from Kobe nobody has that nasty, insane, I-cant-believe-you-just-said-that attitude and drive. MJ and Kobe were maniacs on the court and with the drive to win. And for both to stay with one team until retirement speaks volumes.
There’s a few with the Jordan mentality, for sure money has ruined much of it, but you will miss on the next MJ if you’re not watching, but I do understand where y’all coming from
@@eddiebrock9183 the only team after the bulls era that I enjoyed was with lakers of shaq and kobe and spurs of duncan, parker and Ginobili.
In 10 years time there will be Space Jam 2 and docuseries called “The last flap”.
Lol
True that...
The Last Excuse
The last flop
Your already right about the space jam 2 😂😂😂
This documentary proved MJ was the goat.
Ur right but used the wrong word...was is past tense making room for a successor...micheal IS still currently the Goat! Young bucks were only fooled & fueled by the fanboy media = kd was right 🤣🤣🤣
I'm from the UK and grew up hearing about MJ or catching a glance in magazines or on international news on cable. Then basketball came to C4 and I'd record every game.
This documentary was brilliant I want to watch it again, this was pure hunger, drive and killer instinct to be the best but also he wanted his teammates to be the best they could be.
As he got older he realised that if he could rely on on his teammates when the moment came, they'd deliver.
I love the fact everytime someone crossed him on the court, that was pure motivation for him to excel even more.
Unbelievable series. Not long enough series, and the Greatest competitor I've ever seen and he is undoubtedly the Greatest ever to lace them.
This documentary just proved that MJ is The Greatest Of All Time! 👑
Mark my words, the last dance will win an oscar
I don't know they got another documentary coming out about the racist X owner of the Clippers
Golden Globe and Emmy. Not sure if it would be eligible for an Oscar
No it won’t, it was underwhelming and had a lot of dry spots honestly
Its not a movie
Anthony Planzo dont have to be a movie to win an oscar
Us Chicago area people age 35 and older were so blessed during the 90’s. We can relate to this documentary the most! Thank you MJ for putting Chicago on the map!
I felt like a kid on Christmas every Monday morning I woke up at 6 AM so I could watch the episode as soon as possible,
Breaking Bad was the last thing on screen that did that to me. Now that's what a good documentary or TV show does,
that you can't wait till the next episode airs !
Best thing on TV I've watched since Breaking Bad, and that is saying something.
Breaking bad is my #1 tv show ever better than last dance. I still enjoyed last dance because of MJ though.
I've been fortunate to watch Jordan, Kobe, and Lebron. It's rather insulting people constantly comparing Lebron to the goat Jordan. Not even close, Jordan had that gene that very few have in sports.
I never wanted it to end!!!
Amazing documentary, I’m a jazz fan and it hurt to relive those finals but come on, Jordan sheesh. He was to unstoppable.
All make good points but Steven A. hits home again about the difference in era's. This is why so many of us older crowds don't respect today's NBA. Maybe now the younger crowd sees what we were always talking about...
People still think LeBron the GOAT? I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT I will never say those words again. MJ the GOAT and it was never close.
LOL. Prisoner of the moment. When Lebron’s docuseries is eventually created it’ll be the same and people will call him the GOAT
3:00 Keep in mind Max the Lakers were there because of Phil Jackson. If he's still coaching the Bulls, the Lakers would have still been nowhere close to championship contenders because they didn't know how to share the basketball.
agree.. the mastermind was there..
Good point
Excellent point
The triangle was brilliant, phil did so much for the teams he coached.
All these guys mj faced were monsters in their own right. I never thought ewing, barkley and malone were that beasts!! Heck even penny was so good back then. Shaq as well
steve kerr's dad and mom were heroes
When MJ stole the ball from Malone and came down the court and scored the gaming winning pose shot to win his 6 finals, all within 6 game, it solidified him as the Greatest Of All Time GOAT. It was speculated before that, but it was a certainty at that moment forever.
Max sometimes waffles so much you just end up losing interest in what he's saying
Yeah, if you have a short attention span.
Waffles?
Israel Rosario Jr. nah I have a pretty good attention span and he literally just blabs sometimes
Facts he does. I was just wanted to hear jay williams humble his self.
Greatest sports doc ever. MJ is the GOAT. We knew it back in the day. Now its being brought to light for those didnt get to see him back in the day.
I remember absolutely despising Jordan and Bulls growing up. I was so resentful about them defeating Magic and my beloved Lakers in '91. It didn't stop me from being part of the Jordan fan club, or having his posters all over my room, though (the teenage years were confusing, you know?) I always wanted someone to pay him back for the Lakers. I was sick all the talk of him being the GOAT. I knew he was the GOAT, but I didn't want it to be so. But, this documentary, which is probably the best I've ever seen, really changed everything. How could someone watch this, and not root for this man; this team? I really appreciate what you have done, ESPN. I was hooked every moment. I truly believe everyone should watch it, whether they care about basketball or not. If nothing more, learn about the mindset of these larger-than-life icons. Every chance you get, whether you love or hate them, take time to listen to the words of these incredibly rare people to understand true motivation; the ability to transcend any goal, regardless of the odds.
Saw Karl Malone came personally to Bull's bus to congratulate every single one of them..
class act
Last Dance was one of the greatest documentary because it answered a lot of questions we all had back then. 💪💪💪👌👌👌🙌🙌
Your comment is interesting and I respect it you can't tell me a lot of this footage you've never seen before or maybe you haven't
This thing is gonna win the Oscar for best doc, no competition whatsoever. This is the Michael Jordan of documentaries.
I would like to say that I am not a sports person but I believe The Last Dance was the best sports documentary I have ever seen. I was glued to every segment and could have watched many more.
I really don't know how other sports docs will follow this one up? I doubt it will be topped. Like I know a Kobe doc might be next but his death still hurts. I can't even watch him spending time with his kids without shedding tears!
That’s the difference between MJ and these dudes today they just can’t be present in the moment...
Jordan was on another galaxy Compared to the divas in the NBA today
NO JAY WILLIAMS THIS IS THE BEST DOCUMENTARY EVER PERIOD !!!!!!!!!!!
That documentary was amazing. It was great to see what kind of person Michael Jordan is and why he is a true GOAT not only i basketball but also in sports history in general. I think that documentary was especially great for younger audiance who didn't have a chance to see MJ and the Bulls play and didn't see how different and much tougher NBA was back in a day.
Would have been nice to see San Antonio play the Bulls in 99 for the title and the 4pete
THIS WILL WIN AN AWARD
That play vs the Celtics the between the legs dribble is so sick. MJ23 is the goat, by far. Period.
Ready Player One came out in 2018. I saw it when I still had MoviePass. Directed by Steven Spielberg. The story is in the 2040s but so many late-70s/80s references! It's like the content from those decades will never ever die.
Jordan the GOAT but some of these millineals will still deny it.
1 shot and my life is on the line it’s MJ no second guessing 🇺🇸💪👍
I'll take bird
I'm taking Larry Legends all day
IM 21 and have grown up only with LeBron. Im a heat fan and for the longest time I truly believed he was the true GOAT. After watching this series I can easily say MJ is a breed of his own. there isn't a debate as to who the best is to me anymore MJ is a different breed
I still have goose bumps from watching it! Jordan is the G.O.A.T.
The real debate should ve who's the #2 NBA player of All-Time there is only 1 #23
Exactly
i still say wilt is the greatest. michael is greatest guard . it could be a tie.
@@albundy8192 na Wilt would have issues against Shaq & Akeem the Dream he only got his against lil white dudes I believe Bill Russel played in the same era we see who got all the rings..Wilt is a good pick tho
Jay Williams is like a ghost I see everywhere
Even in 2k myteam. They somehow gave him a good card
Ive always been a fan of the bulls, but not because of Jordan, mainly because of Derrick Rose. I was born in 95 so I never really got to experience the greatness of Jordan firsthand. Though I always respected calling MJ the goat, this docu-series grew that respect even more. Thank you ESPN for this series. Basketball fans everywhere needed this.
best ending of any sports documentaries: a young athlete that just made it to the pro, talking about wanting respect and achieving success. Then the scene shifts to his present self with a cigar in hand walking away with a swag of an OG.
Dennis is a legend. WcW
Maaaan I remember actually seeing that episode
MJ is the GOAT, there is no debate.
The debate will never end. That's the true fact. People are gonna make a case as to why, Kobe is better or Bron or Kareem or Bill Russell. This debate is far from over
playing against plumbers in the 90s with handchecking is goat status.
LeBron goat🐐🐐🐐🦁🦁🦁💯💯💯
This documentary is the best out there perfect for current former or future NBA fans
Rodman leaving after the NBA finals game 3 to join Hulk Hogan in WWF and then come back and win the series has to be the GOAT move
🤣🤣, fantastic player, he gave it all on the court. I laughed when he was running away from the media through the backdoor
This documentary showed me how good MJ really was and how important it is to have good role players.
summary - NO BIRTH WITHOUT PAIN 🏀🏀
it's the best documentary ever not just sports, or at least top 5. I even went through a list of top 100 documentaries before posting this
How great was the music... Amazing. Everyone’s comments are on point.
The part I thought stood out the most for me at least, was when Jordan broke down in the change rooms after winning his first championship after his father was murdered. The emotion Jordan showed laying on the ground alone with the game ball really hit home 😢
It’s a strange thing , the franchise owner killing his own franchise. Or sat back as it was being dismantled.
The fact most of this footage was shot 22 years ago and NOTHING was done with it until last year, is amazing to me.
Ahhhh the 90s days were soo lit! NBA & RnB 🔥🔥
