Michael Jordan has lived his life as a battle of wills against the whole world. Why would he surrender control now? david_j_roth recaps the final two episodes of TheLastDance
For as long as people have been telling stories, they have told them about gods. Most of these stories imagine them as being more or less like people—sometimes generous and often casually sadistic but mostly caught up in their own petty affairs. They squabble and feud and take stuff that isn’t theirs and wreck things out of spite, behaving with the absolute abandon of beings that believe themselves to exist beyond consequence.
These last two are among the more overtly fun episodes in the series, as it happens, and devote most of their running time to Jordan’s last two championships, both of which came in six games against the Utah Jazz in ’96–’97 and the Last Dance season of ’97–’98 and which feature some of Jordan’s most memorable individual performances.
There are only so many of these, both because they’re not really a part of the story that Michael Jordan wants to tell — that one is about the time that someone said or maybe just thought that Jordan wouldn’t be able to do something and how he said “okay, that’s your opinion” and then went out and fucking did it — and because there really may not be that many of them to find. Jordan gave himself entirely to his pursuit, and everything he had went into the furnace to fuel it.
