I'm not saying that we need some sort of no-holds-barred investigative expose or anything but there isnt much point in a focused documentary if the subject of that focus controls the content.
Its not as though there were cheerleaders with pom-poms cheering Jordan on....wait...there were....thats not really the point though.
Its just not showing us anything that wasnt already known, in which case it really is just a puff piece, albeit an interesting and well put together one.
My favourite part of the entire thing has been:
"Barack Obama: Former Chicago Resident"
I think hes known for having done some other things since then. I cant quite put my finger on what exactly, but things...

I guess if the choice is no doc at all or what we ended up with, I would choose what we ended up with. Not a whole bunch new for anyone who was a fan or who at least was around at the time, but there were a few good nuggets and I think it will have opened up the eyes of a generation that didn't experience Jordan. He really was a game changer.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
