i love the shit about phil jackson coaching in puerto rico. out in the middle of nowhere. random nowheresville towns. guy shoots a guy in the leg. just totally caliente. what do you think PR was like in 1985? P Jax must have carried a switchblade

Trailer for Last Dance 5&6 - MJ is just ice cold man, being offended with comparison to Clyde Drexler as the two best players in the league.

I’m offended because the two best players in the league at the time were both actually on the Bulls.

I read an article today about how he basically ended Mugsey Bogues career by telling him to "shoot it, you fucking midget" at the end of a playoff game (Mugsey missed). The argument from the writer was it destroyed Mugseys confidence forever to have MJ mock him.

Probably the only time Mugsy was called a midget. I bet it was soul crushing.

That's what I was thinking. Was he just extra butt hurt bc they were in Space Jam together and he misread the friendship?

Really loving the Last Dance. As mentioned before - the old footage really brings me back to my high school and college days...

Yeah it's a questionable conclusion to draw by whoever wrote it. Maybe it was being called a "fucking" midget that got him?

I loved watching him play, but let's face it, he's a dick

Makes for a cute little story though.

Now Ehlo and Price are saying Harper wanting to D Jordan on The Shot wasn't really how they remembered it. I don't even know what's real anymore.

Harper should consider himself lucky he wasn't D-ing up Jordan on that shot.

I’m loving all the revisionist history.

I'm still not sure how you allow Jordan to even get the ball on an out of bounds play in that situation.

Ricky is one of my favorite writers and almost single handedly got Garpax fired. This is what he was writing before SB Nation furloughed him. It's brilliant.

He's into season 8 on his substack site now and I don't want to spoil it but the Leathernecks really start to make some noise in the big dance.
