The basketball world has finally gotten some level of excitement back, albeit in the form of a documentary. But let’s be clear, this is not just a documentary, this is the documentary we’ve all been waiting for. Houston Rockets fans have also used this ESPN special as an opportunity to shoot down the narrative that the Rockets wouldn’t have won titles without Jordan’s surprising retirement, which is a narrative that really needs to be put to sleep.
One thing that’s already been displayed during the first two episodes of The Last Dance is the power struggle that ensued between then Chicago Bulls general manager Jerry Krause and Michael Jordan.
