I enjoyed the Michael special.
I try to sit back and compare it to today. Michael Jordan was in his prime, after coming off a three-peat and retired. The guy retired to play Baseball dude, how crazy is that?
Could you imagine if that happened today? If LeBron just quit after this year and decided he'd had enough, he's not motivated anymore, and he goes to play football.
Twitter would break down, NT would shut down, everyone would be astonished.
I know it kills Michael to this day that he retired in his prime because those numbers of championships could have been 8, instead of 6. Just as long as he was motivated enough. Maybe even 9 if the Bulls front office ego's didn't get in the way of the Bulls coming back during the 1999 lockout season. :x

An article from Wesley Morris from last year
The Rise of the NBA Nerd
Basketball style and black identity
No cliffs.. It won't kill anyone to take five minutes and read an article

Russ hates all the OKC media and beat writers, and deservingly so. They are all always so negative towards him, and Darnell for example (the light skinned guy who is holding the mic and kind of chuckles) loves asking Russ troll questions that he knows upset him.
