When The Last Dance released a few months ago, people across the world got a better glimpse at Michael Jordan and his legacy. Throughout the docuseries, fans saw Jordan’s passion and mentality, which left thousands inspired. Recently, YouTuber and social media influencer Logan Paul watched the series and shared his experience.

He said, “I can’t remember the last time I was inspired to change the way I live my life by something I watched. But I had no idea how special this human was, both on and off the court. His dedication to the craft is unparalleled.”

Jordan set the bar for players in the league when he played, and even after he retired. Many players modeled their game based on him because they wanted to emulate the greatest. Kobe Bryant was the best example of it.

“The thing I noticed that solidified him as the GOAT is that he knew when and that he could rely on his team,” Paul said. “He wasn’t a ball hog; he was down for the cause at all times.”

Similar to Paul, many fans admitted that watching the series just confirmed that Jordan was the GOAT for them.

Paul says it was the perfect story for Michael Jordan

Two three-peats, he won six NBA championships all with the Chicago Bulls and retired after his last win,” Paul said. “It’s the perfect story of the greatest athlete of all-time.”

After his sixth title in 1998, Jordan bid adieu to the game for the second time. He wanted to come back for a seventh title, but the Bulls refused to retain Phil Jackson as the head coach. Displeased by that decision, Jordan called it quits and ended on a high. He came back for a two-year stint later with the Wizards, but it was a forgetful one.

The Last Dance showed how committed Jordan was to winning, and how he refused to settle down before he achieved his goals. His drive and passion also pushed his teammates to work harder and be better. This resulted in a fantastic 6-0 NBA Finals record. Only four other players have a better record.

He was one of the rare players that rivals wouldn’t mind losing to because they knew they were losing to the best. Such is the greatness of Michael Jordan.
