IT was one of the few players to ever get the better of MJ in their careers (he was 36-29 against him). As competitive as those two were (they were both assholes on and off the court), not surprising that the hate is still very much there. [Reply]

It's actually a great watch so far.
he had final cut. Jordan decided what went into the documentary and what was left out. At least they were open about it and fully disclosed it prior to the release. [Reply]
Lest we forget..... Karl Malone was a pedophile. Got a 13 year old pregnant. Refused to take care of the kid even after DNA confirmed it was his kid. Dragged into court to get him to pay a lousy $200 a month in child support. Kid looks exactly like him.
Guess you can get 13 year old girls knocked up in Utah without consequence. [Reply]

What MJ did, and the defenses he did it against, was unworldly.
If there are people not familiar with the era itching for more, Magic and Bird: A Courtship of Rivals is very compelling. . . Also, the 30 for 30 on the Pistons, Bad Boys. [Reply]

It was a great time and definitely love the personalities etc. Definitely brings back great memories as a teenager. [Reply]

Back then I believe the age of consent was 13 or 14. Mormons. [Reply]

Isiah and Pistons knocked Bird and Jordan out in one year. And almost knocked Magic out as well. [Reply]

And they left in a lot of people openly criticizing MJ. [Reply]
So far this is a great watch. The fact that Jordan only signed with Nike because of his mom was great. To see his competitive nature on the court and off was fascinating. But also just to relive those days, and be impressed again by just how good he and the Bulls really were. This was the best basketball team to ever take the court. Can't wait for Sunday. [Reply]
