‘T

he Last Dance’’ was superb entertainment — a 10-hour starburst of nostalgia that showcased the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls in general and iconic basketball player Michael Jordan in particular.

But the series focused its Jordan-centric lens only through June 1998, when Jordan was 35 years old and once again standing at basketball’s mountaintop.

Jordan is 57 now. But the ESPN documentary only contained six words in its tiny postscript about MJ’s last 22 years: “Michael

Jordan went back into retirement.”

There’s been a lot more to Michael Jordan’s large life than that. He un-retired one final time, playing two seasons for the Washington Wizards. He bought the Charlotte Hornets. He got divorced, got married again and had twin girls. He gave a Hall of Fame speech in 2009 that provided a glimpse behind the disrespect curtain that this documentary then pulled back for good.

But the great question

JEFF SINER Charlotte Observer Michael Jordan the player won six NBA titles, but admits ‘it’s harder to do that now when I’ve got a suit on’ as an owner.
