THE LAST DANCE STREAMING, NETFLIX

IT’S hard to imagine a time when the Chicago Bulls basketball team weren’t one of the best known sporting brands on the planet, such was their dominance through the 1990s when they won six NBA titles in eight years, spearheade­d by the peerless Michael Jordan (pictured) on his way to becoming what Oprah Winfrey professed to be “the most famous man on the planet”. This fascinatin­g doco is a deep dive into the turbulent final season of the Bulls second “three-peat” in 199798 and is not just a celebratio­n of one of the finest sporting teams ever assembled, but also a warts-and-all examinatio­n of the machinatio­ns that happen behind the scenes of a huge franchise when millions of dollars are at stake. The 10-part series is compelling viewing for basketball tragics and casual fans alike.
