      Are you stupid? They are called World Champions because any team who wins in the NBA is the best team in the world. Stupid.

      @jocriss LoL

      I bet you if you put WORLD WIDE TEAMS, many would beat NBA teams…

      And just look how much money Arabs, Chines, Europeans have in football… They EAT NBA team for breakfast.

      So in order to be a WORLD CHAMPION there need to be team from all around the globe, not just North American teams.

      They do have best players, but if there would be WORLD CLUB BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP, I bet you it would be a different 🙂

      Ohh ps: So whichever football club wins CHAMPIONS LEAGUES they should call themselfs WORLD CHAMPIONS in FOOTBALL 🙂 ?

    During that game Knicks fans were yelling at Spike, “STFU! You’re pissing him off” The more smack spoken to Jordan, the worst the beating he doled out & the sweeter the highlight reel. Great times!

    HIS IMPACT CAN BE TAKEN POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE. IT DEPENDS ON HOW YOU PERCEIVE IT. BUT HE IS UP THERE WITH THE MOST IMPACTFUL PEOPLE IN HISTORY

    I don’t think Last Dance confirmed MJ status as being the G.O.A.T. Most people already knew that…most athletes and harsh basketball experts will concur too… the Last Dance is just a reminder for young viewers and for the next generations to come how great MJ was a basketball player.

    Greatness should be judge by winning and leading your team. The higher the odds of losing means the bigger credit you’ll get. The Last Dance proves how MJ was so dedicated and committed to bring in the chip the MJ way.

    People have no idea how difficult it is to win 6 rings with better competition and do 2 3-peat. I think MJ would have emerge to a better all around player in this era. Who’s the big man who could stop him in the paint? Rudy Gobert? Porzingis? Jokic? Embiid? Anthony Davis? None of the great defensive players big man are as great as the 80’s and 90’s defensive elites. MJ face them all.

    Ewing, Shaq, Robinson, Mourning, Mutombo and Hakeem Olajuwon will be demolishing the league.

    You know when a song gets played out because of always being on the radio. That is ESPN with Lebron James, and now MJ. Over and over and over. It’s like waking up to the same day every day day

    fact: even people who never saw MJ play and only knew him by the popularity of his shoes as a culture trendsetter in fashion rock on the jordans..if you ever ask those guys esp women here around japan who are 35-31 below if they knew who jordan was and why they rock on those shoes most probably they cant answer the question and if ever they ever answer that is bcoz its popular or it looks cool…i have a few younger female friends who rock on the jordans and have no idea who Jordan really was or whats the story behind the iconic shoe trend…thats just one of those things that Jordan had impacted the world ever since he came to the league and even after his retirement and up to this day..his shoe brand are selling more compared to the other kicks out there… whenever you visit japan you can see alot of people rocking on Jordan’s and yet dont play ball at all…

    Jordan’s impact off the court? President Barack Obama said it best. When you’re the absolute best at anything on this planet, all around the world people will tell you : ” You’re the Michael Jordan of…”!
    That’s sums up pretty much his cultural impact.

    Jordan’s impact made Kobe Bryant becomes one of the great players in NBA.

    Everyone want to be like Mike, inside or outside of court.

    Can’t wait to see if The Last Dance gets followed up by The Last Dunce when Air Moron came back to the League and embarrassed himself with blown dunks…you all know that one…oh wait, everyone wants to pretend those seasons never happened, right…

    Something people may not realize. When I was a kid growing up, everyone wore Converse or Adidas. Nike was a nothing company. MJ signs with Nike and they come out with his red and white and black shoes.

    However, they were against league colors and the NBA told him to stop wearing them, which he didn’t. They then told him if he didn’t, they’d fine him $25,000 for every game he did. Nike said, keep wearing them! We’ll pay the fines! Everybody wanted to buy the sneakers that were so bad, even the NBA banned them! Phil Knight should kiss the ground that Jordan walks on! He made Nike!
