    Not a huge Basketball guy but Jordan was the best in my opinion so I think I might give it a shot

    Michael Jordan and other Chicago Bulls cards have gone up in price recently, and it has been noticed by the members of the trading card section of the forum. There is speculation that this documentary has something to do with it. This should be a good one, and we get to hear all of the behind the scenes shenanigans and dirt, with exclusive interviews!

    I don't pay for cable but I should be able to find somewhere online to watch it even if its the following day after it each show airs. I will say though that I'm definitely loving the increase in price that his cards are now selling for. I decided to sell off quite a few of items from my PC and it's already gone much better than expected hopefully this documentary keeps it going for awhile.

    Not even if it was on free TV, certainly not going to pay for it.

    He has as good a claim to the GOAT as anyone. I like Wilt a little better as the basketball GOAT, but Jordan was certainly right there.

    Nothing to do with his ability, just not into Basketball and tired of the focus always being on the GOAT.

    For all you Bulls/Jordan fans out there..........ENJOY!

    i mean 10 (ten) parts? Come on now.

    But i guess to Jordan junkies who can't get enough, they will watch all of it...not that there's anything wrong with that.

    As interesting and exciting was the Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl championship to me, there's no way i could sit thru replaying 10 parts of it. LOL

    For some reason, I keep seeing articles pop up everyday, giving me updates on the latest war of words between Jordan and Isiah Thomas. The latest verbal jab between them states that Isiah Thomas says that Jordan is the 4th best player that he ever played against. Ahead of Jordan on Isiah Thomas's list of players that he played against are Jabbar, Bird, Johnson and Dr.J

    There is also a story floating around online about Jordan blackballing Thomas from the 1992 dreamteam. It's getting juicy! That's just how I like my sports wars, juicy and ugly!! Come on fellas, don't hold back, tell us how you really feel about eachother!!

    The story about the Dream Team isn't new and has been confirmed multiple times. It was retaliation for Isiah supposedly freezing out Jordan during an early All-Star game.

    So do I. The whole Piston team should have been suspended for 3 years at least!!

    The drama between Isiah Thomas and Michael Jordan just keeps on going. David Robinson says it was necassary to keep Isiah off of the dream team because team chemistry matters, and Isiah would have disrupted the team chemistry on the dream team due to his style of play with the Pistons. Meanwhile , Doc Rivers has come to Isiah Thomas's defense, saying he doesn't appreciate the way Thomas is being portrayed on The Last Dance, and that Thomas was no different than any other champion as far as attitude about winning is concerned.
