The Last Dance

[Angle Parking]

damn that was good
I left mine on and the tats on the backs permanent

I've read your prose for years and have restrained myself from asking for clarification but now I must,..... are you saying you have a bulls tattoo on your back, or symbolically asserting your stance to keep your Bulls sticker on your vehicle. And are you from Newfoudland? Who are the newfsy's?

[skifishbum]

I have a bulls tattoo on my back shoulder that was a bachelor party parting the windy city gift from my bros
if youre ever in a seaside bar in croatia and the tony k fan is the tender
drinks on the house
conversely I was tending bar downtown at a joint called pina that was the old twirly toy building for the last dance season and wearing mikes jersey didn't help fill the tip jar
the guy who at first called me a band wagon fan ended up being cool and leavin $20 on a couple drafts
I aint newfs
I just pick em as our furkids of choice

when mike says couda done 7
I believe
wife says media says 6 mil watched

So we did Roku/YOutubeTV / xfinity innernet 300MBPS terrabyte and it seems 2-3 times a week the "internet connection" on the roku just shits the bed, won't connect. So I just got through #9 last night.

Damn that Steve Kerr bit was awesome. The pressure to preform for MJ must have been off the fuckin charts. To do so in the biggest momment,...

I fast forwarded through the Steve Kerr bit. I was interested in the basketball. Some back story is good, but the ratio was out of whack.

By the end of this series, I just wanted it to get to the fucking point already. I thought all of the chrono jumping was really off-putting.

Contrast that to the Lakers/Celtics doc in ESPN, which had just as much backstory but much better flow. It was really just the intensity, charisma, and epic talent of MJ that made an otherwise flawed documentary as interesting as it was.

I don't follow B-ball but i couldnt figure out why was that portly little GM was so interested in firing the coach of a winning team pissing off MJ " the franchise" seemingly in advance ?

[iceman]

It was definitely in advance. Who knows, people are weird, I'm sure he had some explanation but I've never heard it. What's weirder to me is that Reinsdorf (the owner) went along with it. Guy's supposed to be a businessman. What puts more asses in seats, MJ or no MJ?

He tried, I think the portly fellow just ended up rubbing them the wrong way and they said eff it. MJ so wouldve come back for another year, so would the rest of em. 7 wouldve made it even better, but damn repeat threepeat

i think i watched the celtics lakers doc
but i dont remember 10 parts
so im not sure how they could have crammed as much back story into way less time
gus mattered to me and i didnt know that about kerrs dad
or if many shared a flawed view things you gots goin on but id reccomend
do not read the emerald mile its more than a story about a boat
in non cronilogical order

[RockChalk]

the fact he played thru & picked up your bar tab might be your first clue

Got randomly paired with James Worthy in a twosome when I was in Maui back in February - he not only covered the drinks but had some incredible MJ stories to share.

That's exactly my point. They managed to squeeze the backstory into 3 episodes.

Anyway, I really enjoyed both, and especially the fact that ESPN had several of the classic games available.

Larry Bird as a coach after they got knocked out by the Bulls walks up to Jordan and I forget the exact sequence but, "You Suck. Fuck you" or the reverse. And Jordan says something back about being able to practice his golf game now. That was gold!

[TahoeJ]

It's funny how some have misinterpreted that Jordan / Bird exchange. It was Jordan who said "You bitch, fuck you!" and it was him paying respect to Bird for pushing his team that far against him.

Kind of the way you can call a close friend an asshole (or some other term) but it won't go over so well with a casual friend.

Pull up a video of that. I don't recall it that way at all. But I agree with the fact that it was mutually friendly and mad respect going both directions.

watched it last night they were both smiling, it definaltey was a friendly thing

say what you will about the series or MJ the overwhemling thing that came thru for me is he did push everybody higher mostly himself and that wasnt always pretty

[skifishbum]

I wanted to see the part where Scotty walked past Malone at the line, and said: “the mailman doesn’t deliver on Sundays”.
