If there is one thing that ‘The Last Dance’ documentary showed, is don’t ever offend Michael Jordan. And if you do, you better hope that he doesn’t take it personally. But one of his own teammates, Scottie Pippen, forgot about that and ‘His Airness’ took it personally, leading him to drop 100 points on Pippen’s team.
