“The Last Dance,” ESPN’s 10-part documentary on Michael Jordan and the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls’ run to their sixth championship, came to its thrilling conclusion Sunday night with a finish worthy of one of the greatest teams in history.
The final two episodes turned focus primarily to the 1997 NBA Finals and the end of the 1998 playoff run, which included a vicious seven-game series against the Pacers. Reggie Miller at his peak was no pushover, and the same goes for the Karl Malone-John Stockton era Jazz.
But this was ultimately a story about Jordan and the Bulls’ final triumph before their breakup, and it was incredible to watch.
