1
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,116
What time is it?
Game time! Whoo!
2
00:01:34,199 --> 00:01:37,653
From North Carolina...
3
00:01:37,737 --> 00:01:45,145
at guard, six-six,
Michael Jordan!
4
00:01:54,094 --> 00:01:57,007
Everyday that I stepped
on the basketball court,
5
00:01:57,090 --> 00:02:00,211
even though I was on top of the world,
6
00:02:00,295 --> 00:02:04,665
I felt like I had something to prove.
7
00:02:18,650 --> 00:02:22,603
I wanna be like Mike
I wanna be, I wanna be like Mike
8
00:02:22,687 --> 00:02:26,349
Yeah, hey, hey
I wanna be I wanna be like Mike
9
00:02:26,433 --> 00:02:30,595
Yes, I do
I wanna be I wanna be like Mike
10
00:02:30,678 --> 00:02:34,631
Oh, oh-oh, ohh, yeah
I wanna be I wanna be like Mike
11
00:02:34,715 --> 00:02:39,501
Li-Li-Li-Like Mike
I wanna be like Mike
12
00:02:39,585 --> 00:02:41,874
You got to be like Mike
13
00:02:41,957 --> 00:02:43,871
Be like Mike
14
00:02:43,955 --> 00:02:45,911
You gotta be like Mike
15
00:02:45,994 --> 00:02:48,075
Be like Mike
16
00:02:48,159 --> 00:02:50,115
You gotta be like Mike
17
00:02:50,198 --> 00:02:52,778
Be like Mike
18
00:03:08,386 --> 00:03:10,841
After Michael Jordan's final season,
19
00:03:10,925 --> 00:03:14,504
the NBA gave him yet another
Most Valuable Player Award,
20
00:03:14,588 --> 00:03:16,336
and said the reason is simple.
21
00:03:16,419 --> 00:03:20,456
"After 13 seasons,
you still go out every night...
22
00:03:20,539 --> 00:03:22,453
and play like Michael Jordan.
23
00:03:28,864 --> 00:03:31,402
When Jordan would go out
for the spotlight introduction,
24
00:03:31,486 --> 00:03:34,024
he would look up into the stands
and he would realize...
25
00:03:34,108 --> 00:03:36,730
that there was at least
someone up there that night...
26
00:03:36,813 --> 00:03:39,601
who had never seen him before,
who would never see him again.
27
00:03:39,685 --> 00:03:43,680
And this would be the one
Michael Jordan moment...
28
00:03:43,764 --> 00:03:45,303
they ever had.
29
00:03:45,387 --> 00:03:48,383
And he would say he was playing
for those people there.
30
00:03:50,714 --> 00:03:52,045
We had a six-game road trip,
three cities in four nights.
31
00:03:52,129 --> 00:03:55,125
Michael had had some spasms
in his lower back.
32
00:03:55,209 --> 00:03:56,665
And we literally had to, you know...
33
00:03:56,749 --> 00:04:00,037
carry him off the bus,
off the plane to the bus...
34
00:04:00,121 --> 00:04:03,866
from the bus to the hotel.
35
00:04:03,950 --> 00:04:06,031
You know, it amazed me...
36
00:04:06,114 --> 00:04:08,153
He went out
and got 40 points that night.
37
00:04:08,237 --> 00:04:10,359
This is the kind of player he was.
He wanted everybody...
38
00:04:10,442 --> 00:04:12,190
to see his special skill.
39
00:04:12,274 --> 00:04:14,396
And he didn't want people
that loved basketball...
40
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,394
not to have that opportunity.
41
00:04:16,477 --> 00:04:18,058
When the playoffs began,
42
00:04:18,142 --> 00:04:20,223
in his heart Michael already knew...
43
00:04:20,307 --> 00:04:22,263
that these would be his last games.
44
00:04:22,346 --> 00:04:25,384
But this would be
no nostalgic farewell tour.
45
00:04:25,467 --> 00:04:28,963
He was determined to go out
on his own terms...
46
00:04:29,047 --> 00:04:30,378
as a champion.
47
00:04:36,788 --> 00:04:40,159
The Bulls' first-round opponents
were the New Jersey Nets...
48
00:04:40,243 --> 00:04:42,698
young and full of hope.
49
00:04:42,782 --> 00:04:45,653
Michael was dominant.
50
00:04:56,766 --> 00:04:58,305
It was a three-game sweep,
51
00:04:58,389 --> 00:05:01,760
built on mental toughness
as much as physical talent.
52
00:05:01,844 --> 00:05:04,590
And for Michael,
the way to develop the mind...
53
00:05:04,674 --> 00:05:06,588
had always been through the heart.
54
00:05:08,586 --> 00:05:10,791
A lot of parents ask me,
55
00:05:10,875 --> 00:05:13,455
"Well, what advice
would you give my kids?"
56
00:05:13,539 --> 00:05:16,785
And my advice would be
let them just enjoy the game.
57
00:05:25,443 --> 00:05:29,521
I think what they have to learn
more about at that young age...
58
00:05:29,605 --> 00:05:31,436
is their love for the game.
59
00:05:31,519 --> 00:05:37,678
And once they've developed that,
then the mental part is easy.
60
00:05:46,711 --> 00:05:48,250
I didn't really get instruction...
61
00:05:48,334 --> 00:05:51,497
until I was a junior in high school.
62
00:05:51,580 --> 00:05:54,909
First, I just loved the game
and I let my skills develop.
63
00:06:00,196 --> 00:06:03,317
So I believe in learning late...
64
00:06:03,401 --> 00:06:05,440
playing early, but learning late.
65
00:06:07,812 --> 00:06:10,017
Michael's love of the game was born...
66
00:06:10,102 --> 00:06:12,349
in his hometown of Wilmington,
North Carolina.
67
00:06:12,432 --> 00:06:14,929
during long afternoons
on the play grounds.
68
00:06:17,510 --> 00:06:19,882
His older brother, Lary,
helped Michael hone his game...
69
00:06:19,966 --> 00:06:23,004
in their epic battles of one-on-one
at their backyard hoop.
70
00:06:23,087 --> 00:06:25,251
But Michael's first hard lesson
would come...
71
00:06:25,335 --> 00:06:28,206
when he tried out for the
varsity team at Laney High.
72
00:06:28,290 --> 00:06:30,912
When I was a sophomore
in high school...
73
00:06:30,995 --> 00:06:33,866
like most high school kids...
74
00:06:33,950 --> 00:06:38,070
you get all the energy and all
the motivation and excitement...
75
00:06:38,154 --> 00:06:41,566
of making your varsity team,
which is a big thing.
76
00:06:41,650 --> 00:06:45,229
Status is a lot
when you're in high school.
77
00:06:45,313 --> 00:06:47,893
So you can imagine
the disappointment that I got...
78
00:06:47,976 --> 00:06:50,389
when I felt like
I should have made the team.
79
00:06:50,473 --> 00:06:52,429
but then didn't make the team.
80
00:06:52,513 --> 00:06:55,218
I'm crying,
I lost my emotions totally.
81
00:06:55,301 --> 00:06:58,630
My mother came to me
and said,"Use that energy...
82
00:06:58,714 --> 00:07:04,540
"to prove to the coach and to your peers
and your classmates...
83
00:07:04,624 --> 00:07:06,039
that they made a mistake."
84
00:07:06,123 --> 00:07:08,245
You give it your best.
85
00:07:08,329 --> 00:07:10,576
You try so hard
and you get to the point,
86
00:07:10,659 --> 00:07:12,032
"I know I can do it"
87
00:07:12,116 --> 00:07:15,112
And if you try one more time,
you are able to achieve it.
88
00:07:15,196 --> 00:07:17,235
It's going
one step farther.
89
00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:19,566
That's not giving up,
it's giving your best.
90
00:07:19,649 --> 00:07:21,771
I only will walk away...
91
00:07:21,855 --> 00:07:25,184
when I know I do not have
anything else to give.
92
00:07:25,268 --> 00:07:28,847
The disappointment
was so deep, like a cut,
93
00:07:28,931 --> 00:07:30,429
it struck the fire in me.
94
00:07:30,512 --> 00:07:34,174
to make sure that I never endure
that type of pain again.
95
00:07:34,258 --> 00:07:38,128
In these condround
of the playoffs...
96
00:07:38,212 --> 00:07:40,625
Michael returned home
with a vengeance.
97
00:07:42,083 --> 00:07:43,872
Playing the Charlotte Hornets,
98
00:07:43,956 --> 00:07:47,244
It would be Michael's last
professional appearance in North Carolina.
99
00:07:48,701 --> 00:07:50,615
It's always been a treat
to come back home...
100
00:07:50,698 --> 00:07:54,402
when you've grown up here and you go out
and become a man on your own.
101
00:07:54,486 --> 00:07:57,649
And then come back home to show
what's evolved of that person.
102
00:08:10,843 --> 00:08:14,921
For fans who had watched him
since his days as a Carolina schoolboy,
103
00:08:15,005 --> 00:08:19,832
what emerged now was not just
the skill but the will power.
104
00:08:19,916 --> 00:08:23,245
Those who remembered
his raw potential...
105
00:08:23,329 --> 00:08:27,532
now saw the results
of a lifetime of hard work.
106
00:08:27,616 --> 00:08:29,697
He would go to J.V.
practice and practice,
107
00:08:29,780 --> 00:08:31,486
and then he'd go to varsity practice.
108
00:08:31,570 --> 00:08:34,483
We'd play ball games,
and after the games were over,
109
00:08:34,566 --> 00:08:36,272
he'd run what we called "suicides"
or line drills...
110
00:08:36,356 --> 00:08:39,768
he'd run those by himself.
111
00:08:39,852 --> 00:08:42,765
I just maveled
at his work habits even then.
112
00:08:42,849 --> 00:08:47,885
With his competitiveness
to go with all that dedication,
113
00:08:47,968 --> 00:08:51,921
you know, it was something to see.
114
00:08:52,005 --> 00:08:56,832
The weakest part of Michael's game
on the offensive end...was his shooting.
115
00:08:56,917 --> 00:08:58,956
So he obviously mastered something...
116
00:08:59,039 --> 00:09:02,493
that everybody said he couldn't
do when he came out of college.
117
00:09:02,577 --> 00:09:05,199
And he didn't by shooting
and shooting and shooting...
118
00:09:05,282 --> 00:09:07,030
and shooting consistently.
119
00:09:07,114 --> 00:09:08,778
The other thing
that people told him...
120
00:09:08,862 --> 00:09:11,026
that he wasn't a really good
defensive player.
121
00:09:11,109 --> 00:09:12,648
And he found a way...
122
00:09:12,732 --> 00:09:15,312
not only to become
a great defensive player...
123
00:09:15,396 --> 00:09:17,976
but the best defensive player
in the NBA
124
00:09:18,060 --> 00:09:21,056
This guy said,
"Those are my weaknesses.
125
00:09:21,140 --> 00:09:25,010
I'm going to figure out how to
make those my strengths." And he didn't.
126
00:09:26,426 --> 00:09:28,631
I got a glimpse,
really, of Michael Jordan...
127
00:09:28,715 --> 00:09:31,628
and what he was all about the
first time lever coached him.
128
00:09:31,711 --> 00:09:34,499
About two minutes to go in
the game, I called a time-out.
129
00:09:34,583 --> 00:09:38,412
And we were down two... it was
right there in the balance.
130
00:09:38,496 --> 00:09:41,034
And I had some
little powder on my mouth...
131
00:09:41,118 --> 00:09:43,407
from where I chewed some gum
and chewed it so hard...
132
00:09:43,490 --> 00:09:44,905
that it really had become powder.
133
00:09:44,988 --> 00:09:47,485
And Michael grabbed a cup of
water and he handed it to me,
134
00:09:47,569 --> 00:09:49,358
and he said,
"Take a drink of this water.
135
00:09:49,442 --> 00:09:50,815
"Clear that stuff off your mouth.
136
00:09:50,899 --> 00:09:52,938
I'm not going to let you
lose your first game."
137
00:09:53,021 --> 00:09:56,558
The level of faith that
I have in anything in life...
138
00:09:56,642 --> 00:09:58,806
is taught to you from your parents.
139
00:09:58,890 --> 00:10:01,886
It is a trait that I would never
trade anything for.
140
00:10:01,970 --> 00:10:05,424
And if I can ever pass anything
on to my kids...
141
00:10:05,507 --> 00:10:09,585
it would be to be optimistic
about everything in life.
142
00:10:09,669 --> 00:10:13,664
He was only a freshman at the
University of North Carolina,
143
00:10:13,748 --> 00:10:16,619
but with the 1982 NCAA
Championship at stake,
144
00:10:16,703 --> 00:10:19,991
his team's fate was in his
hands, And he never hesitated.
145
00:10:21,615 --> 00:10:25,152
Goes back to Michael Jordan,
jumper from out on the left!
146
00:10:25,235 --> 00:10:30,354
The Tar Heels are going to win
the national championship!
147
00:10:30,438 --> 00:10:33,684
After I hit the shot,
my father came to me and said...
148
00:10:33,768 --> 00:10:35,682
this was the start
of something big.
149
00:10:35,765 --> 00:10:38,720
He didn't know what it was.
I didn't know what it was.
150
00:10:38,804 --> 00:10:39,927
But I did believe him.
151
00:10:44,547 --> 00:10:47,002
Good morning,
ladies and gentlemen.
152
00:10:47,086 --> 00:10:48,750
Welcome to flight 23.
153
00:10:48,834 --> 00:10:51,664
Please make sure your seat belts
are securely fastened...
154
00:10:51,748 --> 00:10:54,703
and extinguish
all smoking materials.
155
00:11:10,976 --> 00:11:15,637
when you wish upon a star
156
00:11:15,721 --> 00:11:20,132
Your dream will take you
very far. yeah
157
00:11:20,216 --> 00:11:22,421
Michael came along
at a time...
158
00:11:22,505 --> 00:11:25,751
when globalization
really was occurring...
159
00:11:25,835 --> 00:11:28,248
and an explosion
in media was occurring.
160
00:11:28,332 --> 00:11:30,454
And he helped drive
that explosion.
161
00:11:30,538 --> 00:11:31,578
Yo, Mike,
what makes you...
162
00:11:31,662 --> 00:11:33,077
the best player
in the universe?
163
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:34,075
Is it the haircut?
164
00:11:34,159 --> 00:11:35,074
No, Mars.
165
00:11:35,158 --> 00:11:36,697
Is it the shoes?
166
00:11:36,781 --> 00:11:38,653
There have been so many things
that he has popularized.
167
00:11:38,737 --> 00:11:42,399
the shorts, the shoes...
"Must be the shoes."
168
00:11:42,483 --> 00:11:45,229
Money, it's got to be
the shoes! Shoes! Shoes!
169
00:11:45,313 --> 00:11:47,310
I think Michael has transcended
every boundary...
170
00:11:47,394 --> 00:11:50,557
... of gender and race
and age and sport.
171
00:11:50,641 --> 00:11:53,054
I think he's becomes or of
a part of our everyday culture.
172
00:11:53,138 --> 00:11:54,886
Like Mike
if I could be like Mike
173
00:11:54,969 --> 00:11:57,341
I wanna be
I wanna be like Mike
174
00:11:57,425 --> 00:12:00,213
Like Mike
if I could be like Mike
175
00:12:00,297 --> 00:12:01,795
Oh, be like Mike
176
00:12:04,958 --> 00:12:07,954
I've missed more than 9,000
shots in my career...
177
00:12:08,038 --> 00:12:10,576
I think what made him
so specialas a marketing icon...
178
00:12:10,660 --> 00:12:12,616
is that he was natural.
179
00:12:12,700 --> 00:12:16,112
Today, when everyone
really tries to be like Mike,
180
00:12:16,196 --> 00:12:18,734
they're tying so hard
to invent a persona,
181
00:12:18,818 --> 00:12:20,274
I think that people
see through that...
182
00:12:20,358 --> 00:12:21,981
and it doesn't stand
the test of time.
183
00:12:22,064 --> 00:12:26,142
I've failed over and over
and over again in my life,
184
00:12:28,141 --> 00:12:31,429
and that is why I succeed.
185
00:12:31,512 --> 00:12:34,300
Good afternoon, everyone,
and welcome once again ...
186
00:12:34,384 --> 00:12:36,465
to Bulls basketball...
playoff basketball...
187
00:12:36,548 --> 00:12:38,670
as we move to the
Eastern Conference Finals...
188
00:12:38,754 --> 00:12:40,377
the Bulls
and the Indiana Pacers.
189
00:12:40,461 --> 00:12:43,291
These two teams were two and two
in the regular season.
190
00:12:43,374 --> 00:12:47,869
But the rival really begins on
a Sunday afternoon in Chicago...
191
00:12:47,952 --> 00:12:50,740
Miller and Jordan
and a cast of characters...
192
00:12:50,824 --> 00:12:53,237
that is not afraid to win.
193
00:12:53,321 --> 00:12:57,316
There's Michael, slips and falls
down, gets back up into the lane,
194
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,854
hops through, falls,
fires on the rim and it's good!
195
00:13:00,938 --> 00:13:02,686
The Indiana Pacers...
196
00:13:02,769 --> 00:13:05,973
with their outside shooting
and the physical play...
197
00:13:06,057 --> 00:13:10,010
were a team custom-built
to defeat Michael and the Bulls.
198
00:13:18,752 --> 00:13:21,249
In the first two games
of the series...
199
00:13:21,332 --> 00:13:23,995
even though the Bulls
would win both games...
200
00:13:24,079 --> 00:13:26,368
it was clear
that the Pacers would pose...
201
00:13:26,451 --> 00:13:28,323
their first real test.
202
00:13:44,848 --> 00:13:50,175
Rose backs in. Now, Rose,
stripped by Michael.
203
00:13:50,258 --> 00:13:51,173
To Harper.
204
00:13:51,257 --> 00:13:52,505
Harper on the run.
205
00:13:52,589 --> 00:13:55,211
Lead pass, Toni...
Kukoc to Michael.
206
00:13:55,294 --> 00:13:56,833
He dunks the ball!
207
00:13:56,918 --> 00:14:01,038
Oh, my!
208
00:14:03,410 --> 00:14:06,406
for the next two games,
the scene shifed to Indiana.
209
00:14:06,490 --> 00:14:09,986
On their home court, the Pacers
would win game three...
210
00:14:10,070 --> 00:14:13,358
behind their tireless guard,
Reggie Miller.
211
00:14:13,441 --> 00:14:15,563
Lead pass ahead for Mark Jackson.
212
00:14:15,647 --> 00:14:17,062
This is what Indiana wants.
213
00:14:17,145 --> 00:14:19,059
They run to Miller
for three...got it!
214
00:14:19,143 --> 00:14:23,346
In game four, the Bulls led
by a point in the final seconds,
215
00:14:23,430 --> 00:14:26,260
when Miller and Jordan
would square off again.
216
00:14:26,343 --> 00:14:28,923
Here we go...
McKey holding, looking.
217
00:14:29,007 --> 00:14:30,671
Here comes Miller
to the top.
218
00:14:30,755 --> 00:14:32,378
Miller, a catch.
219
00:14:32,462 --> 00:14:34,043
Miller, a look...
he hit it!
220
00:14:34,126 --> 00:14:36,997
Reggie Miller...
knocked it down.
221
00:14:37,081 --> 00:14:39,536
Four-tenths
of second left.
222
00:14:39,620 --> 00:14:42,533
Reggie, Reggie, Reggie...
223
00:14:45,905 --> 00:14:48,485
Toni,
out near the time line.
224
00:14:48,569 --> 00:14:52,356
Looking, looking, looking,
looking, looking, looking.
225
00:14:52,439 --> 00:14:53,854
Got it to Michael.
226
00:15:04,385 --> 00:15:06,632
And...
it went in and out!
227
00:15:06,715 --> 00:15:10,377
Hit the board and spun out,
and Indiana wins the game.
228
00:15:10,461 --> 00:15:12,167
With the series tied at two,
229
00:15:12,251 --> 00:15:14,581
fatigue was taking
its toll on the Bulls.
230
00:15:14,665 --> 00:15:16,829
And meanwhile, out West,
231
00:15:16,912 --> 00:15:19,658
the Utah Jazz were rolling
towards the finals.
232
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,569
Led by future Hall of Famers
Karl Malone and John Stockton,
233
00:15:25,653 --> 00:15:28,816
the Jazz dominated
the Western Conference playoffs...
234
00:15:28,899 --> 00:15:30,771
and would have
ten days' rest...
235
00:15:30,855 --> 00:15:34,725
while the Bulls and Pacers
continued to battle in the East.
236
00:15:36,973 --> 00:15:38,804
The Bulls lost another game,
237
00:15:38,888 --> 00:15:41,718
and would have to go
the full seven in a series...
238
00:15:41,801 --> 00:15:43,549
for the first time in years.
239
00:15:43,633 --> 00:15:46,338
By the end of game six,
doubters were saying...
240
00:15:46,421 --> 00:15:49,043
that Michael was finally
running on empty.
241
00:15:49,127 --> 00:15:51,416
Bulls trail by two.
242
00:15:51,499 --> 00:15:52,581
Here we go.
243
00:15:52,664 --> 00:15:54,495
M.J. one-on-one with McKey.
244
00:15:54,579 --> 00:15:56,618
Michael a drive,
tripped off his feet,
245
00:15:56,702 --> 00:15:59,324
and McKey stole the ball,
and that's going to do it.
246
00:16:00,780 --> 00:16:01,695
That will do it.
247
00:16:01,779 --> 00:16:03,152
Indiana's going to win it.
248
00:16:03,236 --> 00:16:05,150
He may have b33n
d3v4st4t3d th4t n1ght,
249
00:16:05,234 --> 00:16:07,647
and I assume he was, but
he had the ability to believe...
250
00:16:07,731 --> 00:16:10,228
that we were going to win
And he was going to do well.
251
00:16:11,685 --> 00:16:13,349
Probably one of the
most remarkable shots...
252
00:16:13,433 --> 00:16:16,804
that everybody remembers is the
shot he made against Cleveland.
253
00:16:16,888 --> 00:16:18,719
The in-bounds pass
comes in to Jordan.
254
00:16:18,802 --> 00:16:20,050
Here's Michael
at the foul line.
255
00:16:20,134 --> 00:16:21,049
A shot on Ehlo.
256
00:16:21,133 --> 00:16:21,715
Good!
257
00:16:21,799 --> 00:16:23,422
The Bulls win!
258
00:16:23,505 --> 00:16:24,670
They win it!
259
00:16:24,754 --> 00:16:26,127
But they don't remember...
260
00:16:26,211 --> 00:16:27,709
that the night before, he missed
three out of six foul shots...
261
00:16:27,792 --> 00:16:30,330
that would have sealed
the game for us,
262
00:16:30,414 --> 00:16:33,826
and we wouldn't have had
to go to the fifth game.
263
00:16:33,910 --> 00:16:37,156
A normal player would have said,
"Oh, I cost us this opportunity"
264
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,196
and probably beat
themselves up over it.
265
00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:41,443
Michael, the next day
that we played Cleveland...
266
00:16:41,527 --> 00:16:43,399
... got on the bus and said,
"Have no fear.
267
00:16:43,483 --> 00:16:46,105
We're going to win
this ball game."
268
00:16:46,188 --> 00:16:48,976
If we sit here and worry
about what people think of us,
269
00:16:49,060 --> 00:16:50,100
then we don't
have a chance.
270
00:16:50,184 --> 00:16:51,682
They still got to come
through Chicago.
271
00:16:51,766 --> 00:16:54,887
Utah, Indiana, they still
got to come through Chicago.
272
00:16:54,970 --> 00:16:56,967
I don't care what happens today,
273
00:16:57,051 --> 00:16:59,881
don't care what happened
in the other series.
274
00:16:59,965 --> 00:17:01,504
They still got to come
through Chicago.
275
00:17:01,588 --> 00:17:04,376
We will win game seven.
276
00:17:04,460 --> 00:17:06,457
and the ball...Michael a steal.
277
00:17:07,665 --> 00:17:10,911
M.J. on the run,
he will dunk the ball.
278
00:17:10,994 --> 00:17:13,990
Michael was facing
the ultimate elimination...
279
00:17:14,074 --> 00:17:16,612
lose, and end his career
on a note of defeat.
280
00:17:16,696 --> 00:17:18,818
But despite Michael's promises,
281
00:17:18,902 --> 00:17:21,565
the Pacers led
by 13 points early on.
282
00:17:21,649 --> 00:17:25,394
Then Michael led the Bulls
on a furious rally.
283
00:17:25,478 --> 00:17:30,056
He's loose, driving...
and dunks the ball, and a foul!
284
00:17:30,140 --> 00:17:32,429
It was the kind of run
that had led the Bulls...
285
00:17:32,512 --> 00:17:34,842
to their five
previous championships.
286
00:17:34,926 --> 00:17:38,255
But there was still
a half of basketball to play.
287
00:17:39,921 --> 00:17:41,544
Here we were
in the conference finals.
288
00:17:41,627 --> 00:17:42,875
In the seventh game,
we were down...
289
00:17:42,959 --> 00:17:44,540
going into
the fourth quarter.
290
00:17:44,624 --> 00:17:47,204
And I thought maybe... maybe
this is it...
291
00:17:47,287 --> 00:17:49,409
maybe we've had
the last hurrah.
292
00:17:49,493 --> 00:17:53,322
But something rose up in
these players, led by our hero.
293
00:17:56,902 --> 00:18:00,439
He's the type of man that
could get you to jump off a bridge...
294
00:18:00,523 --> 00:18:02,853
or at least think about it
for a few seconds.
295
00:18:02,937 --> 00:18:07,265
He has such a will
to accomplish a mission...
296
00:18:07,348 --> 00:18:09,970
that everyone follows him.
297
00:18:19,252 --> 00:18:20,708
Michael back to the top...
298
00:18:20,792 --> 00:18:22,498
and now the switch
made back by McKey.
299
00:18:22,582 --> 00:18:24,413
Michael to the lane,
jumped out to Luc.
300
00:18:24,496 --> 00:18:26,160
17-footer... bang!
301
00:18:26,244 --> 00:18:27,867
Down the well it goes.
302
00:18:27,951 --> 00:18:30,281
M.J. on the run,
to Kerr for three...
303
00:18:30,365 --> 00:18:32,778
Good!
304
00:18:35,151 --> 00:18:36,815
M.J.
305
00:18:36,899 --> 00:18:38,189
Fall away jumper shot is good!
306
00:18:38,273 --> 00:18:39,188
And a foul!
307
00:18:42,684 --> 00:18:44,307
They may have had tired legs,
308
00:18:44,391 --> 00:18:46,513
but Michael and the Bulls
grew stronger...
309
00:18:46,597 --> 00:18:49,010
in the game's final minutes.
310
00:18:58,209 --> 00:19:01,164
Bulls win, 88-83.
311
00:19:01,247 --> 00:19:07,157
They go to the finals again.
312
00:19:08,572 --> 00:19:11,776
Michael, you're a tired man,
aren't you?
313
00:19:11,860 --> 00:19:15,397
I'm exhausted. But that's what
it took to go where we had to go.
314
00:19:15,481 --> 00:19:17,437
I mean, everybody had
to leave it on the floor...
315
00:19:17,521 --> 00:19:19,768
and there's no tomorrow,
it's the last dance,
316
00:19:19,851 --> 00:19:21,723
so we got to give
everything we got.
317
00:19:21,808 --> 00:19:23,764
They're rested,
you guys are fatigued,
318
00:19:23,847 --> 00:19:25,178
but I know
you'll be ready...
319
00:19:25,262 --> 00:19:26,385
to play on Wednesday.
320
00:19:26,469 --> 00:19:27,592
Our hearts
are not fatigued.
321
00:19:27,676 --> 00:19:29,049
That's the most
important thing.
322
00:19:29,133 --> 00:19:30,589
All right, Michael,
great job.
323
00:19:30,673 --> 00:19:32,795
Before making his final exit,
324
00:19:32,879 --> 00:19:38,705
Michael had to take one more
walk through the spotlight.
325
00:19:47,696 --> 00:19:50,609
Move a side and let
the man go through
326
00:19:50,692 --> 00:19:53,230
Let the man go through
327
00:19:53,314 --> 00:19:55,561
Move a side and let
the man go through
328
00:19:55,645 --> 00:19:57,226
Let the man go through
329
00:19:57,310 --> 00:20:00,265
Move a side and let
the man go through
330
00:20:00,348 --> 00:20:01,971
Let the man go through
331
00:20:02,055 --> 00:20:05,176
Move a side and let
the man go through
332
00:20:05,259 --> 00:20:10,211
Let the man go
through, through
333
00:20:22,116 --> 00:20:24,987
Move up
and let the man go
334
00:20:25,071 --> 00:20:27,027
Let the man go
335
00:20:27,110 --> 00:20:31,937
Move up, let the man go
Let the man go through
336
00:20:32,021 --> 00:20:33,810
Move a side
and let the man go through
337
00:20:33,894 --> 00:20:35,975
Let the man go through
338
00:20:36,059 --> 00:20:39,929
Move a side
and let the man go through
339
00:20:40,013 --> 00:20:41,552
Let the man go through
340
00:20:43,717 --> 00:20:46,172
If you walk through
a crowd with Jordan,
341
00:20:46,256 --> 00:20:49,752
you see the same thing he sees...
you see all the eyes aiming in.
342
00:20:49,835 --> 00:20:51,999
And I asked,
"What do you see in the crowd?"
343
00:20:52,083 --> 00:20:54,705
And he said,"Sometimes
I'll see a father and a son.
344
00:20:54,788 --> 00:20:57,118
"They may not think
I've even noticed them,
345
00:20:57,202 --> 00:20:59,283
but sometimes,"
Jordan will say,
346
00:20:59,366 --> 00:21:04,193
"I wonder if they have any idea
how much I'd like to be them."
347
00:21:04,277 --> 00:21:06,482
Last night
we began the show...
348
00:21:06,567 --> 00:21:09,355
with the disappearance
of Michael Jordan's father.
349
00:21:09,438 --> 00:21:11,643
Tonight, the worst fears
have come true.
350
00:21:11,727 --> 00:21:13,475
James Jordan
was found dead...
351
00:21:13,559 --> 00:21:15,723
the victim of an apparent murder.
352
00:21:18,928 --> 00:21:23,922
When my father died,
I had him for 32 years.
353
00:21:24,006 --> 00:21:25,379
I was very lucky.
354
00:21:25,462 --> 00:21:27,168
I looked at it as being lucky,
355
00:21:27,252 --> 00:21:30,540
not as being disappointed
that he wasn't around anymore.
356
00:21:30,623 --> 00:21:32,953
I was lucky that he was there
when I needed him...
357
00:21:33,037 --> 00:21:36,949
that he could infuence
my life to look at situations...
358
00:21:37,033 --> 00:21:39,488
that I use to help make
my decisions to this day.
359
00:21:39,572 --> 00:21:42,943
Some kids never have that.
360
00:21:43,026 --> 00:21:45,023
Sure, I would love
to have him now, but...
361
00:21:45,107 --> 00:21:48,311
people are put
on this earth for a reason,
362
00:21:48,395 --> 00:21:50,309
and you utilize the time
that you're here.
363
00:21:50,393 --> 00:21:53,139
You never know when that's
going to be taken away from you.
364
00:21:53,223 --> 00:21:54,596
That's one thing
he taught me.
365
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,135
But while he's here,
or while they're here,
366
00:21:57,219 --> 00:21:59,882
they should make an impact
on someone's life.
367
00:21:59,966 --> 00:22:01,797
And he made an impact
on my life.
368
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,709
You're going to get it, man.
369
00:22:05,793 --> 00:22:07,915
That's for bringing me
into this world.
370
00:22:07,998 --> 00:22:10,120
After the third championship,
371
00:22:10,204 --> 00:22:13,908
my father kept kind of hinting
towards me playing baseball
372
00:22:13,992 --> 00:22:16,114
"Stop playing basketball.
373
00:22:16,198 --> 00:22:19,610
Why don't you give
your baseball a shot?"
374
00:22:19,694 --> 00:22:21,941
Because that's what he actually
got mestared playing...
375
00:22:22,025 --> 00:22:23,939
when I was six years old...
I played baseball.
376
00:22:24,022 --> 00:22:27,143
And he felt that
I could play baseball...
377
00:22:27,227 --> 00:22:30,847
and do it with the same
conviction and attitude...
378
00:22:30,931 --> 00:22:32,054
that I played basketball.
379
00:22:34,261 --> 00:22:36,966
Everyday, the first person
there before the sun...
380
00:22:37,050 --> 00:22:38,673
would be Jordan.
381
00:22:38,756 --> 00:22:40,462
And he was there
because he wasn't good.
382
00:22:40,546 --> 00:22:43,459
He would work
with a batting instructor...
383
00:22:43,542 --> 00:22:45,081
and work all day long...
384
00:22:45,166 --> 00:22:48,953
and be the last person to leave
every night also.
385
00:22:50,451 --> 00:22:51,075
Strike three!
386
00:22:51,159 --> 00:22:52,657
Money's no Stan Musial.
387
00:22:52,741 --> 00:22:53,656
But he's tring.
388
00:22:55,155 --> 00:22:56,694
Say, hey,
he's no Willie Mays.
389
00:22:56,778 --> 00:22:58,775
But he's tring, man.
390
00:22:58,859 --> 00:23:03,145
What it did teach me was,
don't be afraid to try.
391
00:23:03,229 --> 00:23:05,060
The worst thing that can happen...
392
00:23:05,143 --> 00:23:08,972
... is it doesn't...it doesn't pan out
the way that you envision it.
393
00:23:09,056 --> 00:23:12,219
But at least you know
that by giving it a shot.
394
00:23:13,634 --> 00:23:15,173
People were basically saying...
395
00:23:15,257 --> 00:23:17,920
that I didn't have no reason
being in the sport,
396
00:23:18,004 --> 00:23:21,208
and I was degrading the sport.
397
00:23:21,292 --> 00:23:23,581
When those negative things
started to happen,
398
00:23:23,665 --> 00:23:25,870
the only thing,
I wish my father was there...
399
00:23:25,954 --> 00:23:28,742
to give me the positive
reinforcements that I needed.
400
00:23:28,826 --> 00:23:31,489
I asked him what it was like
for him in the morning.
401
00:23:31,573 --> 00:23:34,111
And Jordan said,"I get up
before the sun comes up,
402
00:23:34,195 --> 00:23:36,567
and I make myself
some breakfast by myself"...
403
00:23:36,650 --> 00:23:38,023
he was down there alone...
404
00:23:38,107 --> 00:23:39,938
"and I get in the car.
405
00:23:40,021 --> 00:23:42,226
"And I'm driving
to spring training,
406
00:23:42,311 --> 00:23:45,599
"and there's no one, really,
out on the roads yet.
407
00:23:45,682 --> 00:23:51,300
"And I look at the seat
next to me and I see my Dad,
408
00:23:51,384 --> 00:23:52,507
"and I talk to him.
409
00:23:52,591 --> 00:23:55,920
"I think to myself,
Pops, we're doing this.
410
00:23:56,004 --> 00:23:59,167
We're doing this together."
411
00:23:59,250 --> 00:24:00,415
And the day would end,
412
00:24:00,499 --> 00:24:02,788
and he would say
to the batting instructor,
413
00:24:02,871 --> 00:24:03,953
"Can we do a little more?
414
00:24:04,037 --> 00:24:05,202
"I think I'm getting this.
415
00:24:05,285 --> 00:24:07,282
I think I'm learning this,
I think I'm getting this."
416
00:24:07,366 --> 00:24:10,862
And that's when Spors Illustrated
put him on the cover...
417
00:24:10,946 --> 00:24:14,608
saying that Michael Jordan
has embarrassed baseball.
418
00:24:14,691 --> 00:24:16,522
And as I would watch him
there ever night...
419
00:24:16,606 --> 00:24:19,269
as the sun was going down and
the other ball players had left,
420
00:24:19,353 --> 00:24:21,808
and I would see this guy
working to get better...
421
00:24:21,892 --> 00:24:23,848
Michael Jordan working
to get better...
422
00:24:23,931 --> 00:24:26,594
I couldn't help thinking that
if you ever have children,
423
00:24:26,678 --> 00:24:28,759
you ought to pray
that they grow up someday...
424
00:24:28,842 --> 00:24:30,132
to embarrass
you like this.
425
00:24:30,216 --> 00:24:32,172
Michael Jordan...
426
00:24:32,255 --> 00:24:34,003
hits a fly ball.
427
00:24:51,526 --> 00:24:55,355
I think that experience itself
kind of gave him a blessing...
428
00:24:55,438 --> 00:24:57,019
of coming back to basketball...
429
00:24:57,103 --> 00:25:00,723
and understanding the gift that
he'd been given for this game...
430
00:25:00,807 --> 00:25:02,430
that was so special.
431
00:25:02,513 --> 00:25:05,176
By the hand of the Almighty
432
00:25:05,260 --> 00:25:11,378
We fowered
in this generation
433
00:25:11,462 --> 00:25:14,833
Triumphantly
434
00:25:14,916 --> 00:25:17,995
Won't you help to sing
435
00:25:19,952 --> 00:25:22,990
These songs of freedom
436
00:25:23,074 --> 00:25:25,487
'Cause all I ever had...
437
00:25:25,571 --> 00:25:26,902
When Michael came back,
438
00:25:26,986 --> 00:25:30,731
and Jud and I were driving
down to the game,
439
00:25:30,815 --> 00:25:34,186
and I said,"Jud, you know,
does Phil start Michael?
440
00:25:34,270 --> 00:25:38,223
I mean, he hasn't been here for,
you know, 60 games, 65 games."
441
00:25:38,307 --> 00:25:40,055
And Jud looked at me
And he said,
442
00:25:40,138 --> 00:25:42,385
"Steve, as a general rule,
443
00:25:42,469 --> 00:25:44,508
"when you have your own
statue outside the stadium,
444
00:25:44,592 --> 00:25:47,255
you don't
come off the bench."
445
00:25:47,339 --> 00:25:51,501
There'll be other great players,
there's no question about that.
446
00:25:51,584 --> 00:25:53,290
But what he's done
for the game...
447
00:25:53,374 --> 00:25:55,954
I don't think anybody
will touch his greatness.
448
00:25:56,037 --> 00:25:59,616
and that's why everybody's
holding on here in the finish...
449
00:25:59,700 --> 00:26:02,322
to just be apart of...
if this is the last run,
450
00:26:02,405 --> 00:26:09,147
everybody wants to be
a part of it and witness it.
451
00:26:09,231 --> 00:26:11,728
The Bulls had gone
to the finals five times,
452
00:26:11,812 --> 00:26:14,891
and five times they had won.
453
00:26:14,975 --> 00:26:17,056
The fact that this might be
Michael's last chance...
454
00:26:17,139 --> 00:26:20,551
made these finals
the most anticipated ever.
455
00:26:20,635 --> 00:26:22,466
The Jazz had earned
the home cour advantage...
456
00:26:22,550 --> 00:26:24,173
on the strength
of their regular season.
457
00:26:24,256 --> 00:26:25,962
And now,
the world tuned in...
458
00:26:26,046 --> 00:26:28,543
to see if Michael
could beat the odds...
459
00:26:28,626 --> 00:26:35,826
and win one last time.
460
00:26:35,910 --> 00:26:37,574
Right here, right now.
461
00:26:37,658 --> 00:26:39,697
Right here, right now.
462
00:26:39,781 --> 00:26:41,487
Right here, right now.
463
00:26:41,570 --> 00:26:43,318
Right here, right now.
464
00:26:43,402 --> 00:26:46,024
Right here, right now.
465
00:26:55,222 --> 00:26:58,593
Michael circles, spins,
hangs, fires, scores.
466
00:27:01,132 --> 00:27:05,460
In game one, the Bulls
took the Jazz into overtime.
467
00:27:05,544 --> 00:27:10,039
But in the end,
fresher legs prevailed.
468
00:27:10,122 --> 00:27:12,660
The previous year,
although Utah had lost,
469
00:27:12,744 --> 00:27:14,242
they had proven to themselves...
470
00:27:14,326 --> 00:27:15,449
that they could play with the Bulls.
471
00:27:15,533 --> 00:27:17,780
and then they win game one.
472
00:27:17,863 --> 00:27:20,235
I thought Utah was going
to be the NBA champions.
473
00:27:22,900 --> 00:27:26,188
When everybody, in some ways,
didn't expect me to win,
474
00:27:26,271 --> 00:27:28,601
and the odds
are stacked against you.
475
00:27:28,685 --> 00:27:32,971
And for once in your life,
you are the underdog...
476
00:27:33,055 --> 00:27:34,803
You know,
that was beautiful for me.
477
00:27:34,886 --> 00:27:38,298
When he needed it most,
Michael didn't find comfort...
478
00:27:38,382 --> 00:27:41,253
in the championship banners
he helped raise.
479
00:27:41,337 --> 00:27:42,668
But rather strength...
480
00:27:42,753 --> 00:27:45,916
from the seven years
of defeat that came before.
481
00:27:45,999 --> 00:27:48,912
That was a long road.
482
00:27:48,996 --> 00:27:52,450
It kept me in the gym in the
summer, working on my skills...
483
00:27:52,533 --> 00:27:56,153
...trying to be the best basketball player
I could become.
484
00:27:56,238 --> 00:27:57,528
But at the same time,
485
00:27:57,611 --> 00:28:00,690
to show players who were
not on the same level...
486
00:28:00,774 --> 00:28:02,813
with the same
mental toughness...
487
00:28:02,897 --> 00:28:04,811
that,
if I'm going to do this,
488
00:28:04,895 --> 00:28:07,433
then you have
to keep up with the pace.
489
00:28:07,517 --> 00:28:09,764
And quietly,
it stared to turn.
490
00:28:09,848 --> 00:28:13,385
He was your hardest worker.
He competed everyday.
491
00:28:13,469 --> 00:28:15,550
That filtered down through your team,
so as a coach...
492
00:28:15,633 --> 00:28:17,963
you never had to talk about
the work ethic of your team...
493
00:28:18,047 --> 00:28:19,711
because your best player
always brought that.
494
00:28:21,002 --> 00:28:22,916
Michael's standards
were too high...
495
00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:24,498
for many
of his early team mates...
496
00:28:24,581 --> 00:28:26,870
but then
came Scottie Pippen.
497
00:28:26,954 --> 00:28:31,698
The infuence of Michael on Scottie Pippen
was almost from day one.
498
00:28:31,782 --> 00:28:36,152
Michael kind of helped him
get out there on the basketball court...
499
00:28:36,235 --> 00:28:40,896
and taught him some little things...
some of the small tricks that he'd use.
500
00:28:45,267 --> 00:28:48,804
as a consequence, the two of them
really played well together.
501
00:28:48,888 --> 00:28:51,177
It was
the Lone Ranger and Tonto.
502
00:28:51,260 --> 00:28:53,424
There's no doubt about it.
503
00:28:53,507 --> 00:28:56,337
Pippen became a star
in his own right.
504
00:28:56,421 --> 00:28:58,502
and then there was
the supporting cast...
505
00:28:58,585 --> 00:29:01,664
that Michael would
challenge relentlessly,
506
00:29:01,748 --> 00:29:05,119
knowing that they too had to be
ready when their moment came.
507
00:29:05,203 --> 00:29:06,826
He understood the fact...
508
00:29:06,909 --> 00:29:09,114
that everybody had
to share in the game,
509
00:29:09,198 --> 00:29:11,695
and that he was willing
to be part of this...
510
00:29:11,779 --> 00:29:14,609
to sacrifice some
of his own game for that...
511
00:29:14,692 --> 00:29:16,523
was the most
important thing.
512
00:29:18,688 --> 00:29:20,394
He comes off,
I'll be ready.
513
00:29:20,478 --> 00:29:24,140
I've gotten
a chance to play a lot,
514
00:29:24,223 --> 00:29:25,679
and play a lot
in big games.
515
00:29:25,763 --> 00:29:27,844
And I felt
the pressure, I think,
516
00:29:27,928 --> 00:29:29,800
and didn't
perform that well.
517
00:29:29,884 --> 00:29:33,671
And I learned how to play with Michael
and how to hit big shots,
518
00:29:33,755 --> 00:29:36,501
and how to relax myself
in situations like that.
519
00:29:36,585 --> 00:29:38,166
Michael, in traffic, to Kerr.
520
00:29:38,250 --> 00:29:42,661
Fifteen footer...
Yes!
521
00:29:42,745 --> 00:29:44,784
What a great experience,
you know, to go through,
522
00:29:44,867 --> 00:29:46,864
not just for basketball,
but for the rest of my life.
523
00:29:46,948 --> 00:29:48,945
To know that I can
face something...
524
00:29:49,029 --> 00:29:52,566
that's pretty difficult,
and deal with it.
525
00:29:54,315 --> 00:29:55,979
Back in Utah...
526
00:29:56,063 --> 00:29:59,351
the buzz was still about the
Jazz's series opening victory.
527
00:29:59,434 --> 00:30:01,639
But by the time
game two had begun,
528
00:30:01,724 --> 00:30:04,803
game one was history
to Michael and the Bulls.
529
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,212
If Michael enjoyed
being the underdog,
530
00:30:12,295 --> 00:30:16,581
he never let his team feel like one,
driving them forward...
531
00:30:16,665 --> 00:30:19,953
with the fair
and confidence of a champion.
532
00:30:21,535 --> 00:30:22,991
The Bulls won game two,
533
00:30:23,075 --> 00:30:27,237
and now the series would
move to Chicago, tied at one.
534
00:30:28,819 --> 00:30:32,390
I'd have to see someone beat
Michael Jordan four times,
535
00:30:32,473 --> 00:30:35,236
because, I said, to do that
you're going to have to dismember him.
536
00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:37,234
You're going to have to take
an arm and leg,
537
00:30:37,318 --> 00:30:38,891
and you're going to have to drag him
off the floor.
538
00:30:38,974 --> 00:30:41,197
He's not going
to go easily.
539
00:30:41,638 --> 00:30:44,093
These would be Michael's
last games in Chicago.
540
00:30:44,177 --> 00:30:48,963
And game three played out like
a thank-you note to the fans.
541
00:30:51,294 --> 00:30:54,249
Welcome to my world
542
00:30:54,332 --> 00:30:57,620
Where I feel
most at home
543
00:30:57,703 --> 00:30:59,784
Reasons will always change
544
00:30:59,867 --> 00:31:03,654
But the meaning
still stays the same
545
00:31:15,434 --> 00:31:17,723
Welcome to my world
546
00:31:17,806 --> 00:31:20,927
Where I feel
most at home
547
00:31:25,298 --> 00:31:28,953
Chicago's 96-54 win in game
three was the biggest rout...
548
00:31:29,036 --> 00:31:31,582
in NBA finals histoy.
549
00:31:31,666 --> 00:31:33,913
The Bulls were two games away
from the title.
550
00:31:33,996 --> 00:31:35,535
Pass the first time.
551
00:31:35,620 --> 00:31:39,199
People say a lot of things
about our physical tiredness,
552
00:31:39,282 --> 00:31:41,113
but our mental toughness
is there.
553
00:31:41,197 --> 00:31:43,319
And I don't think
that should ever be over looked.
554
00:31:43,403 --> 00:31:44,818
Okay, here we go.
555
00:31:44,901 --> 00:31:46,024
Okay, let's go!
556
00:31:47,606 --> 00:31:49,687
After dominating game three,
557
00:31:49,770 --> 00:31:53,349
the Bulls' physical resilience
would be tested in game four.
558
00:32:04,962 --> 00:32:06,710
Scottie looks.
559
00:32:06,793 --> 00:32:08,915
Dumps it to Michael... M.J.
560
00:32:08,999 --> 00:32:10,663
And turns base line...
561
00:32:10,747 --> 00:32:12,703
Fall away jumper...good!
562
00:32:12,787 --> 00:32:14,826
What a rainbow that was.
563
00:32:14,909 --> 00:32:16,282
Kukoc drops to Michael.
564
00:32:16,366 --> 00:32:19,487
M.J. spins along the base line,
goes up and scores.
565
00:32:19,571 --> 00:32:21,943
And Kukoc looking,
looking, looking.
566
00:32:22,026 --> 00:32:25,771
Luc to Michael. He catches,
two dribbles, spins in, scoops...
567
00:32:25,856 --> 00:32:27,728
and scores!
568
00:32:30,392 --> 00:32:32,764
Another win for the Bulls.
569
00:32:32,848 --> 00:32:35,636
The countdown to the
championship had reached one.
570
00:32:39,257 --> 00:32:42,336
Three-one...
571
00:32:42,420 --> 00:32:45,083
Do you still feel
like you guys are the underdogs?
572
00:32:45,167 --> 00:32:46,873
No, we're in
the driver's seat right now,
573
00:32:46,957 --> 00:32:48,705
and, you know, we
just have to come out...
574
00:32:48,788 --> 00:32:49,745
ready to play
next game,
575
00:32:49,829 --> 00:32:54,532
and, you know,
try to put it away.
576
00:32:54,615 --> 00:32:58,943
Before game five, the
celebration had already begun.
577
00:32:59,027 --> 00:33:01,773
I said, come on
578
00:33:01,857 --> 00:33:04,062
Baby, don't you want to go
579
00:33:05,978 --> 00:33:10,140
Back to that
same old place
580
00:33:10,223 --> 00:33:12,595
Sweet home, Chicago
581
00:33:17,923 --> 00:33:21,752
Can I ask you,
how big does that look on IMAX?
582
00:33:21,835 --> 00:33:25,997
Does look like a gigantic bucket
of popcorn on an IMAX screen?
583
00:33:27,537 --> 00:33:29,534
It's a whole mountain
of it, folks.
584
00:33:29,618 --> 00:33:31,699
All right, baby.
585
00:33:31,782 --> 00:33:32,947
Come on, man.
586
00:33:33,031 --> 00:33:34,362
...all for the heart...
587
00:33:34,446 --> 00:33:36,360
and lay it out
on the basketball court.
588
00:33:36,444 --> 00:33:39,190
When we come out of the court,
we're all celebrating,
589
00:33:39,274 --> 00:33:40,772
and Joe's going to be happy.
590
00:33:40,856 --> 00:33:41,979
Let's go, baby.
591
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,303
Before there was anything
to really celebrate,
592
00:33:50,387 --> 00:33:52,884
Karl Malone and the Jazz
found an answer...
593
00:33:52,967 --> 00:33:54,340
to every move
the Bulls made.
594
00:34:12,862 --> 00:34:15,775
In game five,
the Bulls came up empty,
595
00:34:15,859 --> 00:34:19,812
and Michael walked out of the
United Center for the last time.
596
00:34:22,726 --> 00:34:25,722
Back in Utah for practice
the following day,
597
00:34:25,806 --> 00:34:27,720
the defeat
was already forgotten,
598
00:34:27,804 --> 00:34:30,717
for here was another secret
to the spell Michael had held...
599
00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:31,632
over the rest of the league...
600
00:34:31,716 --> 00:34:34,129
ever since
his first championship.
601
00:34:34,213 --> 00:34:37,501
Even when the Bulls
weren't superior physically,
602
00:34:37,585 --> 00:34:39,582
they had
a philosophicaledge.
603
00:34:39,666 --> 00:34:44,119
I think Phil had a lot to do
with that with his Zen practice.
604
00:34:44,202 --> 00:34:46,599
His whole emotional approach
to a game of basketball.
605
00:34:46,683 --> 00:34:50,694
I've experienced
a lot of different coaches,
606
00:34:50,778 --> 00:34:54,731
but he gave me
the understanding about life...
607
00:34:54,815 --> 00:34:56,313
in a whole different frame.
608
00:34:59,394 --> 00:35:04,763
I think his teaching toward
the understanding of Zen Buddhism is...
609
00:35:04,846 --> 00:35:07,093
how you view yourself...
610
00:35:07,177 --> 00:35:10,215
to deal with the realities
of life surrounding you,
611
00:35:10,298 --> 00:35:13,627
and somehow be able
to correlate that...
612
00:35:13,711 --> 00:35:15,667
to a simple game
as basketball.
613
00:35:17,624 --> 00:35:20,703
This is something that we talked about
a lot as a basketball team,
614
00:35:20,787 --> 00:35:22,784
is about how to be
in the moment.
615
00:35:22,868 --> 00:35:26,197
Being able to visualize what
might happen in those times.
616
00:35:26,281 --> 00:35:28,195
Michael so embraced this,
617
00:35:28,278 --> 00:35:31,191
and I think that was
the beauty of his game,
618
00:35:31,275 --> 00:35:34,646
is that he had all these
abilities to adjust,
619
00:35:34,730 --> 00:35:37,560
not force his own
predetermined idea,
620
00:35:37,643 --> 00:35:42,013
but allow those things
to come together for his game.
621
00:35:44,302 --> 00:35:48,047
I tend to be calm,
things tend to slowdown.
622
00:35:48,131 --> 00:35:52,501
As I go into situations that
people don't know the out come,
623
00:35:52,585 --> 00:35:54,582
I've already
experienced them in my mind...
624
00:35:54,666 --> 00:35:56,788
just playing
tricks with myself.
625
00:35:56,872 --> 00:36:02,241
So it didn't seem new to me and
I wasn't afraid to fail with it.
626
00:36:02,324 --> 00:36:06,069
Once I began
to understand that,
627
00:36:06,153 --> 00:36:10,689
I became a master
of the game of basketball.
628
00:36:10,773 --> 00:36:13,519
Game six in Utah.
629
00:36:13,603 --> 00:36:16,724
for the Bulls, a win would mean
the championship.
630
00:36:16,808 --> 00:36:19,554
For Michael, it would mean
the cementing of his legacy.
631
00:36:26,173 --> 00:36:29,294
Harp looking left,
not there... backdoor lob.
632
00:36:29,377 --> 00:36:31,166
Michael goes up and scores!
633
00:36:31,250 --> 00:36:34,038
The Bulls were still feeling
the effects of game five...
634
00:36:34,122 --> 00:36:37,118
as a bad backgrounded
Scottie Pippen.
635
00:36:37,202 --> 00:36:41,821
Pippen knocked down And he's
struggling to get back up.
636
00:36:41,905 --> 00:36:46,025
Sets a screen. Michael hangs in the air.
His jumper, good.
637
00:36:46,109 --> 00:36:52,643
In Chicago, fans filled
Michael Jordan's restaurant,
638
00:36:52,726 --> 00:36:56,471
and 23,000 of the faithful
filled the United Center.
639
00:36:58,637 --> 00:37:03,090
Back in Utah, Michael
was operating on his own.
640
00:37:04,380 --> 00:37:07,043
The celebrated teamwork
of the Jazz was clicking,
641
00:37:07,127 --> 00:37:11,913
and Karl Malone and John Stockton
took charge of the game.
642
00:37:16,533 --> 00:37:18,614
After a grueling post-season,
643
00:37:18,698 --> 00:37:21,944
the Bulls could no longer match
up with the Jazz man for man.
644
00:37:29,228 --> 00:37:32,391
With a fourth-quarter lead,
the Utah crowd sensed...
645
00:37:32,474 --> 00:37:34,763
victory drawing closer
with every basket.
646
00:37:37,052 --> 00:37:38,425
for the Bulls...
647
00:37:38,509 --> 00:37:41,797
the last man standing clawed
his way back into the game.
648
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,959
Come on, Bulls!
649
00:37:45,044 --> 00:37:46,916
Seven on the shot box,
six, five.
650
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:48,539
Now Michael's got
to do it himself.
651
00:37:48,623 --> 00:37:50,162
Jordan backing,
backing, pumping,
652
00:37:50,246 --> 00:37:52,077
falling, firing, scores!
653
00:37:52,161 --> 00:37:55,532
And a foul!
Ohh, my!
654
00:38:11,889 --> 00:38:14,261
Harper back outside.
655
00:38:14,344 --> 00:38:16,966
Michael firing,
sticks another three!
656
00:38:26,206 --> 00:38:29,161
He had played nearly
every minute of the game,
657
00:38:29,245 --> 00:38:31,742
and scored more than half
of his team's points.
658
00:38:31,825 --> 00:38:33,489
But late in the fourh quarer,
659
00:38:33,573 --> 00:38:36,195
Michael finally seemed
worn out by his effors...
660
00:38:36,278 --> 00:38:37,609
and his shots faltered.
661
00:38:48,015 --> 00:38:49,180
Hornacek running.
662
00:38:49,264 --> 00:38:51,178
Hornacek for three.
663
00:38:51,262 --> 00:38:53,800
Got it!
664
00:39:01,376 --> 00:39:04,913
Still Michael kept coming,
kept shooting,
665
00:39:04,997 --> 00:39:08,909
kept getting to the line,
kept the Bulls in the game.
666
00:39:21,603 --> 00:39:24,974
You can do it!
Four championships in a row!
667
00:39:42,122 --> 00:39:44,952
It was as if everything
he had ever accomplished...
668
00:39:45,036 --> 00:39:46,992
had led Michael
to this one moment.
669
00:39:47,075 --> 00:39:49,031
And in the final minute
of the game,
670
00:39:49,114 --> 00:39:51,028
at the final minute
of his career,
671
00:39:51,112 --> 00:39:54,275
he would need everything
he had learned along the way.
672
00:39:58,521 --> 00:40:01,226
Pippen looking... dump to
Michael near the time line.
673
00:40:01,309 --> 00:40:02,557
M.J. at Russell.
674
00:40:02,641 --> 00:40:05,554
Michael a drive,
and the lay-up is good.
675
00:40:05,638 --> 00:40:07,261
A driving lay-up by Michael...
676
00:40:07,344 --> 00:40:09,991
draws the Bulls
to within one.: 86-85.
677
00:40:10,075 --> 00:40:12,172
And now you got a chance
for a stop here.
678
00:40:12,255 --> 00:40:14,627
Dennis and Karl are going
to get down on the post,
679
00:40:14,712 --> 00:40:17,542
and they're going to do all
their little necessary banging.
680
00:40:17,626 --> 00:40:21,414
Myself,
I focused on Karl.
681
00:40:21,597 --> 00:40:23,201
Hornacek screens across.
682
00:40:23,285 --> 00:40:25,823
Malone to the post.
683
00:40:25,907 --> 00:40:28,820
While he's
fighting with Dennis,
684
00:40:28,904 --> 00:40:31,983
he basically forgets
where the ball is,
685
00:40:32,067 --> 00:40:37,436
and so I choose this opportune time
to make my steal,
686
00:40:37,519 --> 00:40:39,641
and I came back
to strip the ball away.
687
00:40:39,725 --> 00:40:41,556
Malone stripped by Michael!
688
00:40:41,639 --> 00:40:43,137
To the floor,
stolen by M.J.!
689
00:40:43,221 --> 00:40:46,341
Michael a steal!
Sixteen seconds left.
690
00:40:46,621 --> 00:40:48,341
Bulls down one.
691
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,796
Crowd gets quiet.
692
00:40:50,879 --> 00:40:53,958
The moment starts to become
the moment, you know, for me.
693
00:40:54,042 --> 00:40:56,164
Once you get in the moment,
you know you're there.
694
00:40:56,248 --> 00:40:57,829
And when I saw the moment...
695
00:40:57,913 --> 00:41:01,117
the opportunity to take advantage of it...
I never doubted myself.
696
00:41:01,201 --> 00:41:03,823
knowing that this was going
to be the last opportunity...
697
00:41:03,906 --> 00:41:05,487
to either win the game
or lose it.
698
00:41:05,571 --> 00:41:07,443
Michael against Russell.
699
00:41:07,527 --> 00:41:09,233
Eleven, ten...Jordan.
700
00:41:09,317 --> 00:41:12,188
Jordan a drive,
hangs, fires...
701
00:41:12,272 --> 00:41:13,978
Scores!
702
00:41:14,062 --> 00:41:15,227
Bulls win the title!
703
00:41:15,311 --> 00:41:22,261
The Bulls are
the world champs again!
704
00:41:26,382 --> 00:41:31,043
If that's the last image
of Michael Jordan,
705
00:41:31,126 --> 00:41:33,040
how magnificent is it?
706
00:41:35,538 --> 00:41:37,827
Oh, my God, that
was beautiful.
707
00:41:37,910 --> 00:41:38,992
What a finish!
708
00:41:39,076 --> 00:41:41,115
I had faith!
I had faith!
709
00:41:41,198 --> 00:41:42,613
You bet you did.
710
00:41:44,112 --> 00:41:47,899
We've come a long
long way together
711
00:41:47,983 --> 00:41:52,686
Through the hard times
and the good
712
00:41:52,769 --> 00:41:57,264
I have to celebrate
you, baby
713
00:41:57,347 --> 00:41:59,552
I have top raise you
like I should
714
00:41:59,636 --> 00:42:02,133
His sixth MVP
this past season,
715
00:42:02,217 --> 00:42:07,169
and his sixth MVP in the NBA finals.
Michael Jordan!
716
00:42:16,368 --> 00:42:20,238
Michael Jordan's legacy
is authenticity.
717
00:42:20,322 --> 00:42:22,111
if you removed all the hype,
718
00:42:22,195 --> 00:42:25,150
all the marketing,
all the show-time glitz,
719
00:42:25,233 --> 00:42:31,101
he would be as 100% genuine as anybody
who ever played in a gym...
720
00:42:31,185 --> 00:42:35,971
or an armory
anywhere, anytime.
721
00:42:36,054 --> 00:42:37,302
There's never been a player...
722
00:42:37,386 --> 00:42:39,675
that's had that ability
that Michael Jordan's had...
723
00:42:39,759 --> 00:42:44,295
in the kind of way he did it
in this game of basketball.
724
00:42:44,378 --> 00:42:48,158
His legacy is a newborn child
ten years from now...
725
00:42:48,242 --> 00:42:50,988
and a father says,"I wish you
could have seen Michael Jordan."
726
00:42:51,071 --> 00:42:51,786
Thank you.
727
00:42:51,870 --> 00:42:53,243
The dignity and grace...
728
00:42:53,327 --> 00:42:55,865
with which you conduct yourself
off the court...
729
00:42:55,949 --> 00:42:57,447
those are important things,
730
00:42:57,531 --> 00:42:59,903
and I believe
those are enduring things.
731
00:42:59,986 --> 00:43:02,857
You figure there've been,
I don't know, 25,000 years.
732
00:43:02,941 --> 00:43:05,896
I don't know how you do
the math of that,
733
00:43:05,980 --> 00:43:09,392
but that's like out of all 50,000
top athletes...
734
00:43:09,476 --> 00:43:12,139
since, you know,
prehistoric times...
735
00:43:12,223 --> 00:43:15,178
brontosaurus and
pterodactyls included...
736
00:43:15,261 --> 00:43:16,509
he's right there.
737
00:43:16,593 --> 00:43:19,256
Ten years from now,
20 years from now...
738
00:43:19,340 --> 00:43:20,838
what I hear people saying,
739
00:43:20,921 --> 00:43:23,709
or I would want people to say,
and it's simple...
740
00:43:23,793 --> 00:43:26,664
that if Michael Jordan was still
playing the game of basketball,
741
00:43:26,748 --> 00:43:28,079
he would dominate.
742
00:43:28,163 --> 00:43:32,241
Welcome to my world
743
00:43:32,325 --> 00:43:36,445
No matter what happens
in this business of basketball,
744
00:43:36,529 --> 00:43:37,902
If we didn't get paid a dime,
745
00:43:37,986 --> 00:43:40,732
you still would play the game
of basketball somewhere.
746
00:43:45,769 --> 00:43:47,392
Welcome to my world
747
00:43:47,475 --> 00:43:50,971
Somewhere there's a kid working.
748
00:43:51,055 --> 00:43:53,177
He won't skip any steps.
749
00:43:54,925 --> 00:43:56,506
He will learn from my example,
750
00:43:56,590 --> 00:43:59,045
just as I have learned
from others.
751
00:44:03,499 --> 00:44:09,617
Welcome to my world
where I feel most at home
752
00:44:09,701 --> 00:44:12,489
There will be a player
greater than me.
753
00:44:13,904 --> 00:44:16,900
If you believe
754
00:44:16,984 --> 00:44:19,106
I know you can
755
00:44:19,190 --> 00:44:21,978
Make it happen for yourself
756
00:44:22,062 --> 00:44:24,059
I can see it in your eyes
757
00:44:24,143 --> 00:44:26,556
It's in your hands
758
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:29,137
So don't ever stop
759
00:44:29,221 --> 00:44:30,927
This is your destiny
760
00:44:31,010 --> 00:44:32,175
It's meant to be
761
00:44:32,259 --> 00:44:35,005
For you to have
what you want
762
00:44:35,089 --> 00:44:38,210
Hey, baby,
now is your time
763
00:44:38,294 --> 00:44:40,999
For you to win
for you to fly
764
00:44:41,083 --> 00:44:45,910
So let all your dreams
help you succeed
765
00:44:45,994 --> 00:44:50,821
To another way of life
The one you long for inside
766
00:44:50,905 --> 00:44:54,151
The one you thought
you'd never lead
767
00:44:54,235 --> 00:44:56,981
If you believe
768
00:44:57,065 --> 00:44:59,437
I know you can
769
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,809
Make it happen
for yourself
770
00:45:01,893 --> 00:45:04,806
I can see it
in your eyes
771
00:45:04,889 --> 00:45:09,009
It's in your hands
So don't ever stop
772
00:45:09,093 --> 00:45:12,214
This is your destiny
It's meant to be
773
00:45:12,298 --> 00:45:14,670
For you to have
what you want
774
00:45:14,754 --> 00:45:19,373
If you believe
I know you can
775
00:45:19,457 --> 00:45:21,829
Make it happen
for yourself
776
00:45:21,912 --> 00:45:24,325
I can see it in your eyes
777
00:45:24,410 --> 00:45:29,029
It's in your hands
So don't ever stop
778
00:45:29,113 --> 00:45:34,856
This is your destiny
It's meant to be
779
00:45:34,939 --> 00:45:37,810
For you to have
everything you want in love
