The Official Michael Jordan Thread??? Vol. 2020 ESPN Documentary

damn i didn't realize how bad Pippen was paid...you don't pay attention to these things when you young cuz MJ was a damn walking statue....

No wonder NIKE got that shout out in his hall of fame speech...they was looking out $$$.
 
I always knew Pippen was underpaid..but compared to today..it’s crazy to think what these players make..

Honestly seeing the old footage blending in with 1997-98 footage was a good look to me

this documentary is fire. first off loved that ESPN allowed the curses. I thought was dope and gave it a "real" factor

2nd man Pippen was severly under paid for what he did and his rank in the NBA at that time.

Jerry should have paid the man 3-4 years into his contract before knowing he would have wanted more to avoid that problem

and LOL at the Jerry kruase jokes through the first 2 films LOLZZZZ

Yet, we cry about “AAU culture” :rollin

The difference was they didn't bring it to the court, they were still out for blood.

Anyone who claims that players back then weren't friends or didn't hang out doesn't know what the hell they're talking about, just parroting the nonsense they hear on television.
 
documentary makes me long for the days when the signature players wore the shoes that Nike put out. something beautiful and simple that MJ wore the HGG for home games the white/red for road games and then the black playoffs for home and black/red for road. loved that style instead of Lebron wearing 145000 different color ways

Same stuff. The league ain’t “tougher” back then or “softer now”

That’s my point.

CBA....different times. Timing is everything, even today. It’s how Evan turner or Allen crabbe can make 18 mil a year with the revenue bump in 2016...and two years later....better players can’t scrape 10 mil a year.

Scottie had to do him

Bruh... nice try :lol:

That's BEFORE the game, once the balled tip'd, Magic and Zeke were out for blood.

The point is, friendships didn't get in the way of on-court rivalries. That's why there have been very few REAL rivalries in recent NBA history, these kids don't know how to turn off friendship after the tips.

Jordan and Ewing were great friends... OFF THE COURT.

ON THE COURT?

Scottie gettin nothing basically for being #2 in da league is why Jordan got rings.

im old enough to see it with a sober eye. Pippen is basically da forrunner to LeBron James... straight swiss army knife.
