Who is his airness

I remember the posters on my wall, the need to have the new Jordans, and wishing with all my heart that he one day might become a Piston.

To me, and many others like me, Michael Jordan was a god amongst men. He was "that guy". Shooting around by myself on the basketball court, like many of you, I mimicked his every move. Sticking out my tongue as I drove to the basket, hitting the game winning shot, he made it look so easy.

Hard to believe that he was cut from his high school basketball team as a sophomore, isn't it? Second all-time in steals, fourth all-time in points, and he tops the list when it comes to "clutch performances". Down by a bucket with just seconds left?

On the occasion of Michael Jordan's second retirement, the NBA were again tricked into thinking it was final and made another video to sum up his career and impact on the game.

Looking back at his return a few years later with the Washington Wizards it was perhaps just as well because this film is able to feel like the man went out at the top of his game with great timing rather than having to deal with the issue of the misjudged return. I saw this film after watching a few other of the NBA-produced Jordan films Air Time etc and a bit narked that the film yet again takes the "corporate video" approach with a narration that is overly earnest and heavy.
