ESPN’s Michael Jordan documentary “The Last Dance” debuted to the masses on the weekend that was originally scheduled for the start of the 2020 NBA postseason. The untold story of Michael Jordan‘s final season with the Chicago Bulls has been one of the most highly anticipated viewing events over the past several years. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, it arrives at a time when many around the world are encouraged to stay safer at home.
The first episode touched on topics such as then-general manager Jerry Krause’s polarizing positions and Michael Jordan’s rise from the University of North Carolina to his rookie season in Chicago, while the second episode covered Scottie Pippen‘s arrival to the Bulls and his controversial 1997 preseason, as well as Jordan’s childhood and second NBA season.
And the anticipation finally ended …
