Great player, team-mates, coach & spirit of the game that made every kid on the court try to replicate his signature shots. MJ - truly one of the very best.

I don't know the first thing about basketball, but that was the most amazing, awesome, gravity defying, beautiful, display of human ability, I've EVER seen.

Class act on and off the court.

Charles Barkley had a great anecdote about he and Michael walking down the street in Chicago. A guy on the street, didn't look homeless, didn't look like he was in trouble, asked Barkley for some change. Barkley went for his pocket and Jordan stopped his hand and said: "If this guy has the energy to ask for spare change, he has the energy to ask 'Would you like fries with that?'"

I don't know why, but that one always sticks with me.

no mention of Space Jam? shenanigans!

As a freshman at Wilmington's Laney High School, Jordan tried out for the varsity basketball team and was cut. The next year he was cut again soon after the season began, while his best friend, Leroy Smith, made the team. Jordan told Reader's Digest that when he discovered he had been dropped from the varsity again, "I went through the day numb. After school, I hurried home, closed the door to my room and cried so hard. It was all I wanted--to play on that team."

He added: "It's probably good that it happened. It made me know what disappointment felt like. And I knew that I didn't want that feeling ever again."

Him on the floor in the locker room made me sad. I remember that live.

Why is this video produced to look like an obituary?
Why are they talking about their "last memory" of him? ffs the man is still alive!
