Five moments from the first night of 'The Last Dance' that gave NBA Twitter what it needed
The first two episodes of ESPN’s “The Last Dance” finally arrived on Sunday, and — for the first night in a month — the NBA fans of the world had what they wanted. For two hours, fans received an unprecedented look into the lives of Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and the rest of the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls.
Point blank, it was a question of how accurate the term “the Bulls traveling cocaine circus” really was. After a prolonged laugh and claiming he had never heard that nickname, Jordan led his response off with an incredible “Ahhhh ... look.”— CJ Fogler April 20, 2020 "ahhhhhh, look" JXSNAKSKDKSKZMXMSMSKXMDMM
— Jilly April 20, 2020 Jordan went onto explain how he once walked in on his teammates partying with, among other things, cocaine and women, then walking right out to preserve his career. Hey, it was the NBA in the 1980s, what did you expect?🔥👕 available only at:https://t.co/lsZcVzswgP pic.twitter.com/ck6WT0PgF3
They still had general manager Jerry Krause, though, and that was kind of the point. One thing that became very clear in the first few segments of the documentary is how much Jordan reviled Krause, and who followed his lead. — Ky Carlin April 20, 2020 There was also Jordan’s casual bullying of Krause on camera and the infamous drama between the GM and Jackson.— Hoop Central April 20, 2020 Not sure any team in NBA history has had a unifying force greater than those Bulls did in their collective contempt for their own GM ...
— Jessica Smetana April 20, 2020 Some noted it was a bit unfortunate that Krause, who died in 2017, wasn’t around to defend himself.— Hardwood Paroxysm April 20, 2020 Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Phil Jackson, Steve Kerr vs A dead Jerry Krause pic.twitter.com/jgJWnSg5iP Pippen explained he signed the deal because he needed the security in case of a debilitating injury. That justification was supported by an upbringing marked by poverty, as detailed in the documentary.
