"“The Last Dance” will have the full participation of Jordan"

This is going to be great for those who worship at the altar of MJ. But if he participated, you already know how it's going to be framed. This is going to be Come Fly With Me - Extended Edition

I would love for MJ to elevate to the level of a Wilt, a Russell, a Kareem and give us several autobiographies and memoirs on basketball theory and an up front account of his life. It would be dope. To my knowledge has left his followers 0 manuscripts or bball bibles like the GOATs. Just a few fluff pieces with pics.

Lol I think they're going to do it like their oj documentary last yr. That was about 10 hrs long if you included the commercials. Probably break it down by childhood, highschool/college, and then his pro career and retirement. They're the best in the business so it's going to be amazing

If they dont break down or include his last 8 years as owner and the challenges he faced itll be wack.

Only way this could be worth the watch is if they truly expose all of his dirt.
If not, make the shit an hour long, show the same highlights, unnecessary right to left hand switch layup against the lakers, Craig Ehlo jumper, etc.​

I hope not.

cause in the end it will just be doing HIM a disservice.

They need to talk Isiah and the dream team and bad boy pistons and his fathers death and the rumors surrounding it, the gambling, baseball, the Jordan rules, David Falk,
the mind games on and off the court, the Knicks, losing that record setting scoring game, his relationship with Magic, Larry, ESPECIALLY Ewing, Oak and Barkley, his hall of fame speech, his long list of clones, Kobe, Lebron, his lack of active and visible involvement in social change for Black people.

ALL these things are part of his legacy and WILL be reported eventually and he will have NO SAY SO.

Just do it NOW fully and completely on as much of your terms as possible.

It would be funny if they include that segment where hes at all star break in Charlotte and some kid comes up to him asking for an autograph and pic and Jordan screams I don't take pics with no fags...than the kid starts crying and Craig Hodges gives the kid a sweat towel to wipe his eyes...than you hear the kid go fuck you Jordan I loved you now I'll find some other player to love and worship..even if it takes 20 yrs I'll find a replacement and even GIve him a pet name ... Yo if they include that segment best documentary ever

I enjoyed watching Jordan play ball but he's not playing ball anymore. I can't see myself watching 10 hours of old Jordan footage, with some weak story inserted between clips. Y'all can have it.

10 hours what else can we learn that we already know about Jordan in 10 hours?

It better be some untold secret shit not ever heard of about Jordan.

If its not a "warts and all" documentary that shit will be nothing but a 10 hour Air Jordan commercial.
