"The Last Dance" Michael Jordan & Chicago Bulls Docuseries

[Magic33]

averaged 9.3, 3.5. , and 2.9 assists respectively in 97-98. Made all rookie team and a 5x champ. Slightly above average while playing on some great teams ? He was definitely a bum in 97-98, b.

How much did you put up in the NBA?

 

[Magic33]

Jordan doesn't say anything cause he's on the other side. Jordan is MAGA all the way.

That's why he did a fundraiser for Obama?

 

[colosneakerado]

that’s the best you got?

[Magic33]

that’s the best you got?

Yeah, because you're a kid who probably can't even touch the nets calling a NBA player a bum. Are you even old enough to have seen Ron play?

I do know the he is deathly afraid of pissing that demo off, considering his team is in Charlotte NC. If he ever spoke through Black consciousness, he’d be vilified by the right.

 

[goledensilence]

Y’all expect Jordan to be moving by street ***** codes out here
Jordan was super square, he walked in that room on them boys like

So square that he was putting hands & feet on his teammates at practice. He was like a quiet but ruthless mob boss on those NBA streets.

 

[goledensilence]

Watching this documentary made me think of how the dynasties I watched left a few rings on the table as well....
Kobe, pulled a Jordan & snitched on Shaq which caused him to leave...
Lebron let those bums in Ohio guilt him into leaving the Miami Heat
KD twitter finger *** was jealous of Curry for being the MJ of the group...

He was an important ROLE player on those teams.

Bum? Nah, find a better word.

Intangibles aren't on any stat sheet. If Harper was a "bum", they would've shipped him off with Pete Myers in '95.

I did and you quoted me. “ slightly above average” and played on some great teams. He he was a role player and my initial use of the word BUM was more for his actions during the Paris tournament in 97’. Harper was acting foolish with Burrell and MJ wasn’t having any of it. Yes, Ron Harper was a journeymen NBA player. No, he wasn’t a bum but he was also just a guy.

I wouldn't call him a journey man. Up until his last stint, when he was done, he played for every team for at least 3 seasons.

Harper was a dam good slashing wing.

But I HATE when people say, "_______ would have been like/better than Jordan."

Man please. That is one hell of a claim. People do it with Len Bias. People do it with Ron Harper.

Just stop.

 

[Mark Antony]

Yup, y'all opened the door to pure stupid. Can't be mad when it takes over the thread.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

No, he wasn’t a bum but he was also just a guy.

Nah.

You can't call someone, "just a guy" that played a vital role on a championship team. Calling him, "just a guy" insinuates many others could have easily been plugged into HIS spot and the team wouldn't have missed a beat. He is a specific skillset catered to THAT squad.

Stop belittling role players on these teams man.

 

[Mr Dink]

Jordan is not obligated to speak on political issues if he doesn't want to. Stop it.

 

[Mamba4life]

When Ron was in Cleveland, he was a stud. In LA he was a stud. He was a stud until his knee injury. Him being able to come back from that injury and contribute to championship squads is a testament to how good he was.

While it is never too late, we can also speak to not striking while the fire is hot.

Bulls merchandise has always sold great and even moreso now since this documentary. Glad I got some of the title winning locker room t shirts before this.

this is fair and one hundred percent how to debate. Harper was the starting PG on that last 3-peat so you’re definitely right. I do remember him being a great defender and his stats suffering have more to do with Phils offense than anything. His stats “ look” average/ just another guy-ish during his Bull tenure but his role can’t be looked at like that.... you right

The fire has always been hot, but it was still a completely different world back then."Shoulda, coulda, woulda" at this point. There were millions of people telling him how he should use his power and influence, and very few of them were actually in it for the benefit of more than their own self interests. "Shut up & dribble" was a real thing during his time. The world doesn't fit that mold anymore. Just because his moves weren't publicized, it doesn't mean he wasn't making them.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Didn't stop them and they did it in a much "tougher" time.

But on the other hand, I do agree it IS easy for us to say what Mike should have done.

We can hope someone BLACK, with THAT platform, would have been on the front lines though.

He wasn’t. The Craig Hodges situation is one example of how MJ dropped the ball.
