Michael Jordan nearly broke down to tears discussing his competitive drive in the latest episodes of 'The Last Dance'.
Transcript
00:00Was Michael Jordan competitive?
00:01One wouldn't know from watching The Last Dance.
00:03Just kidding. Kind of a theme.
00:05As is the idea that MJ could be kind of mean to his own team,
00:09from antagonizing Scott Burrell for being too nice
00:12to punching Steve Kerr in the face
00:14to not letting Horace Grant eat.
00:16But eventually, his Bulls teammates did feast
00:18to the tune of two separate three-peats.
00:21So while Jordan's leadership style may not be for everybody,
00:24it certainly worked for them,
00:26at least when it comes to results.
00:29However, it was kind of unfair for MJ
00:30to think everyone could be as driven as him.
00:33That's rarefied air,
00:35which is why the idea of be like Mike
00:37was always kind of a farce,
00:38because in order to be Michael Jordan,
00:40you'd have to be harsh.
