“The Last Dance” brings back Michael Jordan memories

I have watched “The Last Dance” episodes that have aired a few times already, and it has been great to see Michael Jordan being himself on camera again, which no one has seen in a long time. It’s also fun to relive my Jordan obsession I had when I was very young. In middle school, I read the book Eleven Rings which is an autobiography written by Phil Jackson, the coach of the Bulls for all of their championships in the 90s, and I didn’t get much out of it back then. Now, I’m rereading it as the “Last Dance” episodes are airing, and it has been cool to see the stuff that came up in the book over the past week show up on TV that Sunday. It has also helped me appreciate the true genius of a basketball mind that Phil Jackson had.
