[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 995361, member: 58362"] I was a big fan of basketball around the time of the second three-peat, so I know enough not to get confused, but it has struck me as weird / annoying. I suppose this was always going to be necessary in order to tell other player's stories almost entirely within a single episode. Super high achievers are always going to have people throwing stones at them, but over the years I'd heard enough stories about him being a dick that I expected not to like him. His demenour on camera has improved my opinion of him. Saying that, as someone who never saw him play live, watching this has opened my eyes to just how good Isiah Thomas was , which makes Jordan's role in him missing out on the Dream Team harder to make my peace with. Pippen has awlays struck me as a sullen individual and this did nothing to change my opinion. I wonder if the documentary makers majored on how hard done by he was as it fitted with his demenour, I imagine many will take a more sympathetic view of him given the sob story. I agree that Rodman came out of it very well too. I'm watching episode 7 while I type this, so can't comment on Kukoc. I don't know what we have yet to come, but I hope there's plenty more on the upporting cast. It seems weird that there hasn't been any mention of the four headed monster, with only the odd comment from Bill Wennington featuring (who seems like a super nice guy). In an era with so many superstar centres, the approach of having four big bodies (a bit unfair to Luc Longley) and 24 fouls surely merits note if only for how it enabled them to deal with the Magic.
