The NBA playoffs and regular season would be the talk of sports right now, but due to the Coronavirus pandemic fans are not able to see the tradition in 2020 as of yet.
ESPN has pushed up a documentary about the legendary 1997-1998 Chicago Bulls that were led by the iconic Michael Jordan. The Bulls went down as one of the greatest teams ever, but this documentary may shed a different light on the image of Michael Jordan.
