Michael Jordan talks Luc Longley, Chicago Bulls, The Last Dance | Full interview | Australian Story 

What a great doco that was. Luc an absolute legend. Definitely needs to be on tv aswell. All of Australia needs to see this

Can you put up the scottie pippen interview?? Please

Thank you for this documentary. Luc Longley deserves his contribution to be known.

Can you please upload Phil Jackson’s interview please?

@@brentmonkhouse6638 its 3 hours long. ...and there's no more content than what was in the doco 😂

NEVER BE ANOTHER JORDEN EVER🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀 G O A T 100%

Yes I love that, he's a great guy, so is Luc we love him here in Australia also MJ the goat he is loved greatly here, MJ is the reason I'm a lifetime Bulls fan. Can't wait for the upcoming season with us getting Lonzo Ball & Demar Derozen.

He took it personal when Netflix omitted Luc from The Last Dance, so this is his classic MJ instant revenge... for Luc

✊🏿

@@killswitchfuzzy This presentation had to be made, for Luc. Longley was a good center. He could shoot, he could rebound. Luc was just a good fella. The other teams were trying to beat you every single night. You had to be consistent. That is why teams do not repeat in sports. Teams take a shot at you because are number 1. They measure their performance against you, the world champions!

lmao

Lol 😂

I scrolled all the way down surprised no one made a "took it personally" joke until I found it. Every Jordan video now has this played out joke.

Lmao

Hahaha

To call him the greatest athlete of all time, is blasphemy, and utterly disgusting. He barely enters the top 10. On my list he is waaaaay, waaaay down there. Around 50 maybe. After all, were talking about a small sport, that not many care about.

@@la8pv737 your just a hater. Mike is the 🐐

@MidnightCaller it was a small sport before Jordan. It certainly isn't anymore, it's arguably the 2nd biggest sport in the world.

@MidnightCaller Basketball is the 2nd biggest sport in the world right now in terms of how widespread its played

@MidnightCaller pipe down no one cares about your opinion.

Ha I loved that too. He really got off on that so Luc was on the money

But didn’t matter enough to be in his documentary. MJ is making up for his neglect.

@@ladylynnmaree 'The Last Dance' was Not Jordan's documentary.

​@@ladylynnmaree It was 10 parts. You know who else wasn't highlighted? Ron Harper, one of his closest friends on that team, and someone considered to be 1a to MJ earlier in their careers. Every single guy mattered, regardless of their place in a documentary.

I am shocked and I love this.Mike is an unreal winner but he has respect.

Happened over Zoom during COVID. Couldn't really interrupt him much.

Also with that sweet Aussie accent❤

its not about Michael coming off arrogant, its more so your mind attaching that to him, and whoever else u attach the label to

You used the semi colon wrong. You should've used a colon.

I couldn't agree with you more!

EXACTLY!!! I never saw "arrogance", I'd always seen CONFIDENCE on a myriad of levels!

Did you say arrogant and egotistical. I don't see it.

Like an apology.

Yes it means, he is just promoting his Jordan brand in Australia. Australians buy shoes too lol.

@@Joseph-lz5er so do Republicans 🤣🤣🤣

Though I agree wholeheartedly with this comment I'm not going to like purely for the sake of keeping the number at 23.

@@YourSoleIsMine Nice!!! Lol…took me a second! Lol

I stopped watching the NBA after Kobe retired….the game now is nowhere as competitive or intense.

Shut up old man

YES! Being G.O.A.T is more than just skills!

He knows because he didnt. Pippen was crucial to come

At one point in his career they let go everyone else on the team and he averaged 40 points a game. Wasn't enough to win, so he knew they needed other tools.

@@innosanto nah. He knows because that's what Dean Smith taught him. That's what Bob Knight taught him. MJ was an NCAA champ and an Olympic gold medalist before he entered the NBA. He knew how to win on the biggest stage.

It’s a team game.

@J Gnot sure why you would comment that here, but soccer players diving and acting hurt is so lame.

@J G and nobody asked...

@J G: Lithuanians and many Eastern Europeans disagree with you. And the Chinese. Also wtf you saying that here?

@J G that only prove that 240 countries are stupidest then the other 40 :)

Boring to watch. So slow unlike basketball there's a possible goal every possession. Soccer is well played more because it is cheap to play and can be played wherever.

I wish more interviewers were like that. It's about them, not you.

YES. She arrived prepared, asked questions that were about Luc. But cleverly asked about Jordan's retirement in the context of Luc's post-pro struggles. And had the class and good sense not to bring up meaningless controversies.

@J G What the hell is wrong with you? You're in every thread with this rubbish lol

I kind of felt like every question was just a variant of “can you say something good about Luc?” . I started to cringe after a while

@@Praying_ManTas It's a documentary *about* Luc and your feelings are wrong.

He said Luc helped him grow as a person

@@dominiquejones3805and Micheal helped luc grow as a person as well. That’s the mark of a good friends and good teammates.

MJ is so genuine as a person just like he was as a player, very inspirational.

The is really an underrated comment/observation but spot on!

u nailed it

This is one of reasons he was the player he was

He's an Aquarius

Yeah his understanding and appreciation of personality types and what we can gain from contrast is, great interview.

There is alot of players in the NBA who could learn from that

Original Mamba Mentality

This is what people do t see when they talk about goat in the nba. This is why is undisputably the goat.

that separates him from being goat. He never got scared of missing a shot

@@shinglesshingles nope, originally it's black jesus mentality and evolved into mamba mentality.. Lol peace

Hard to explain that to someone who didn't grow up watching MJ. People don't realise how huge his global popularity was in an age when the internet and social media did not exist

There are a lot of good cases for the GOAT. Watch Clayton Crawley's making the case videos here on RU-vid. I grew up with MJ, but I know there are other educated opinions that also make sense. Anyway, the GOAT conversation can never be proven or won.

@@atomsk1972 you cant speak every again

Except that the whole Jazz story doesn't fit. They played the Jazz twice that year in the regular season and Scottie played in both games and Luc had a total of 2 blocks in both games.

Food poison game

Your job now is to become so successful that one day you will be able to meet him personally and im pretty sure that by you winning you would be thanking him

​@@tuko5717riiìiiìght

Wow thats amazing. Graduating in 3 years? Thats crazy. Ya I ALWAYS think about that food poisining game whenever im trying to accomplish things. I sometimes go on youtube to watch that game to re- inspire myself.

Jordan was one of the top inspirations to the Millennial generation. We were very fortunate to have had the opportunity to see him play the game of basketball and win six championships in the form of two historic three-peats in eight years all while being very philosophical and determined never to let anything or anybody stand in his way of success each and every year no matter what the obstacles. I too model Jordanesque values in my jobs and when I was in school also. Michael Jordan was a role model not only in basketball but also in life! ❤

And leadership.

Or is guilt

Mike has no basketball guilt. He just has respect.

Right on

It’s called fear. Luc would have thumped him.

We're talking about a guy who is probably a billionaire with hundreds of things on his schedule day to day, and he's sitting down for 30 minutes talking about Luc Longley (that's only the portion we see, the whole thing probably took hours to set up and complete).

@@logicaldude3611 MJ is a billionaire not probably

He wasn't featured in last dance think my repaying it back to the luc

@@quentincassell840$1.6 Billion as of 2020

Luc Longley what a legend lol 😆

I went to the no bull tour Melbourne show. Luc didn't bury michael or say anything negative about him. An neither did Scottie pippen they were all nothing but humble.

The way MJ speaks of him. It certainly would be upsetting if Luc actually went on the tour and bashed him.

Luc was there to keep an eye on Pipp and Grant 😅

This has nothing to do with The Last Dance, it was added to the title for clout. No biggie though, Jordan taught a generation how to win at anything. All we have to do is listen and watch.

Yes one of the few documentaries that i didn't want to miss 1 min.

@J G ok?

@J G fascinating, but why are you posting this here?

@J G and?

exactly what you said on both fronts. MJ is the GOAT. Grew up in chicago during the bulls dynasty. Plus being a massive fan of playing/watching the game. What a great time to be alive for sure.....

Wilt Chamberlain didn’t say that, though.

@@chriswebster24 Nobody said he did...

Exactly, especially towards some bum who averaged 2.3 ppg

I think the question is, for a lot of his answers, the whole point of this interview was to throw Luc a bone and say some nice shit about him, how genuine is he being?

Extremely strong interview.

Spot on

And the greatest lie to not lose your business in a whole continent.

@@bensytaccount I didn't want to say it but LeBum is a billionaire too 😂😂😂

"Utmost". You're not Kali Muscle, are you? XD

Well said. When I saw that thumbnail plus running time my click finger was trembling.

Jordan never failed to recognize the contributions of his teammates. You can really feel the gratitude he has for everyone who played hard and contributed to his goal of being the best.

I think Luc being left off of the last dance has been somewhat rectified with this. Kudos to Jordan. I have amazing memories being a 16 year old watching The last dance season. Just beautiful

Not just upmost, but also utmost

I remember one of the videos I saw a long time ago, it was MJ chewing up Luc for his misassignment in the game, MJ was furious at Luc on their way back to the bench, but as they came out of the timeout, MJ told Luc that they needed him to win. That's leadership. Luc was not just a pawn in their championships run. He was a core piece.

He wanted to teach him to dominate. He led by example.

💰 💰💰💰😎

luc

Mj sucks. Bron better

@Michael Jordan Bill Cartright was never a superstar on the Knicks

@@da11king ABC Australia has no money. Big budget cuts. That was an authentic, sincere interview..👍🇦🇺

Yes, and passion for life.

Yes and I think I'm just as fascinated everytime I hear him talk because it takes me back to that era each time of what the energy was like in the Chi when the Bulls played.

He almost sounded like he was going to cry talking about losing that regular season Utah game haha. Some early season game with nothing on the line and you can tell it still stings for him.

@J G I don’t think anyone cares about your soccer comment.

for sure, I think it was on the Last Dance when he said one of the things he rues the most is that they never got a chance to go for the 7th championship as they got split up. I'm sure he is still hurt that he never got a real chance to play again with his boys. Washington doesn't count

He is humble to begin with. He didn't brag and doesn't proclaim himself the goat unlike Lechoke James. He never once brag about his accomplishments nor how he's the greatest player of all time.

Pay attention 2 how Mike says he changed his hard leadership on Luc. He said Luc helped him grow as a person

Exactly that was his game in his mind, if you believe Michael is missing something you lost the Game!!

underrated comment

Luc's life matters!

hahahahaha

yes

@@user-pb2jp2ib3r alongzo morning, hakeem, mutombo

Totally as he said he didn't necessarily like being the way he had to be but that's the thing he had to be like that cause if not it meant they more then likely wouldn't have been as successful as they were.

@@TupacNation Yep!

@Hi-Tech292 That's not true.

Just a country boy

Very insightful.not a typical interview,he dug into himself to not give complimentary answers.he sounded like a caring father.

What a terrific summary. I agree with everything you just said.

Loss makes u realize you rather do it now instead of saying I shoulda went it was too late

It's more about LeBron being called the greatest by Gen Z. Michael is and will always be the most competitive person ever.

I have never heard him being THIS self aware and so utterly understanding of himself. Of who is was as a person then when he was at the height of achievement at the highest competitive level with the perspective of a man 20-25 removed from that level of intensity and having all that time to psychoanalyze himself in, now, a stress-free environment [not referring to his personal life, which i know nothing about. I just mean things, pursuits, probably aren't seen as SO life or death. I see no better evidence of this than his time being president of basketball operations and minority owner of the Wizards. Things had not been good for that franchise really at all in his time there, which was right after his final retirement and lasted 3.5 years. He still had that same mentality he's referring to - a ceaseless desire to be involved in competition and be great. When he failed at that, he did not take it well. But he was 40, still freshly retired, and was still doing everything in his power not to have to shed and retire that "armor." Several years of self reflection and honest personal appraisal later, he is at peace with that experience as one of the most important chapters of his growth beyond and transition away from his life of being so directly responsible in shouldering the burden for a basketball team competing at the highest level. He, just from an outside observer's prospective - one that has followed and studied his life and career as someone not personally close to him ever could, seems as close to a finished product in terms of finding balance and peace as a human being can achieve In relation to Luc: he knows that the very strengths of his demeanor, character, and personality were positive and 100% necessary to achieve all the success that they did were precisely the ones that made the relationships with more "Type B" people complicated at times and perhaps rubbed them the wrong way on occasion. He acknowledges that, and talks about how he changed his methods/approach with Luc without sacrificing an ounce of the message he was was being sent. Luc's lifelong empathic nature and open-mindedness, a willingness to adapt as best he could, combined with Jordan's newfound understanding as to how to meet him halfway meant they were ultimately perfect for each other and both benefitted one another from their strengths and weaknesses alike. Obviously, the results are undeniable proof of how successful all of it was; not only in terms of basketball success(es), but perhaps even more so in their mutual enlightenment as people This endeavor to tell Luc's story in a thorough and honest way was sorely, even tragically, neglected until now. It is greatly appreciated.

1 in 7 billion

You mean "I took that personally!" 🤪

“It became personal with me”

You mean ESPN ….

It makes perfect sense for MJ to do this and not claim full responsibility for leaving him out of one of the biggest documentaries of recent time, which he 100% did. It was his documentary and he was the executive producer. He knows he screwed Luc over and this is him rectifying his reputation to us Aussies. MJ's a pro.

@@waynelivera8333 I cannot disagree with you on this.

@@waynelivera8333 even longley said he lived over seas so they couldn’t interview him

@@secoTheSonicFan The only reason people spread that fake info around is to try and assassinate MJ's character. A lot of MJ haters showed themselves with the last dance doc. Even though the director of the doc said that MJ's camp had no control over the doc, people still spread around things saying MJ had FULL CONTROL of the narrative of the documentary, BASED on nothing but their own bias against MJ.

@@secoTheSonicFan Go look up what "executive producer" means. I love MJ but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out Luc was deemed not important enough to him for his story. If it was Dennis Rodman living in Australia, budget would have been allowed. Wake up, I'm not a hater.

Luc & Rodman made the sickest passes

I think these Bulls are creating a Chicagoverse😮

Really? This interview is why MJ is the goat? It’s basically an “I’m sorry” interview (from MJ) for not including his starting center at all in his own 8 part documentary.

@@grillbuster1519 werent you listening? MJ didnt have creative control or are you calling him a liar?

longley wasnt just a role player. he was the starting center back when the league was dominated by centers. ewing, alonzo, shaq, mutombo, hakeem, duncan, etc. value isnt only measured in points

@@carlholland3819 MJ is a billionaire with all of the control he wants. “The last dance” turned into an MJ documentary mostly, instead of the Bulls. They couldn’t even release it without MJs approval. And yes, he’s a liar. For example, said that he wasn’t the cause of Isiah being left off the dream team, until a recorded convo surfaced. Only after the backlash did MJ decided to try to fix totally omitting discussing his center.

@J G random comment lol

No bro the reporter sounded brain dead reading off a damn script lol u more delusional than the real Scottie pippen 😂

@J G not a chance in hell, AFL will always and I mean always be the top sport in Australia by a wide margin. Basketball isn't very popular here right now. Yes it has its fans but the AFL fills 50,000-100,000 seat stadiums while basketball (10,000-14,000 when full which isn't often) and soccer 5,000-15,000) don't even compete. UFC is fast becoming the second sport here, but soccer will never be on the same level as AFL in Australia doesn't matter if it's 2050 or 3050 AFL will always rule here

Yes. Very obvious, he felt really bad about it in this interview.

What happened?

somehow they left Luc for the Last Dance.... @@billblaski9523

​@@billblaski9523 everybody gets butt hurt over nothing these days. they all won championships, got rich and famous. thats what happened

Right! MJ must have a soft spot for Luc or Australia, or both.

MJ is old-school. No social media presence and he keeps his life private. He would speak on rare occasions, but he has his life to live and his life does not revolve around his fans

His privacy and staying away from virtually everything is adds to the ora and makes it that much more special when he talks. It's been this and Kobe's funeral basically for the past 5 to 10yrs. He is in such a unique position, he was so good and such an icon that his presence let's say in media or commenting about current games, players, or let's say playoff series would over shadow the damn game. Jesus, ESPN has filled a 1/4 of the past decade hyping the rediculous boat Convo just for raitings. Every interview would just end up being about him. Then the next show they would break his comments down and debate if he was playing on the loosing team instead of a certain player they would have win instead.

exactly, to be HIM, and stay sane over 6 championships deal with that PRESSURE, thats emotional IQ big time. A lot of gifted dunkers and athletes have graced the NBA, none have done an MJ. What really revealed his character and maturity was the 3 years getting smashed by Detroit, yet his resolve and commitment only grew.

As opposed to passing blame, claiming your all stars' are all 'bums' and walking off on them...actions of a child.

@@Lizards_Lounge that's what la queen would do meltdown and choke vs the mavericks the. Run and join superstar teams

you dont get to be GOAT at anything if youre not an all around genius

Agreed 1000% mate!!!

Amen, brother.

This video shows why he is the goat, his level of intelligence, deep thought, inner drive and understanding of what it takes, his humility and genuineness sets him apart from others. There will never be another Jordan ever…

Agree!!

That a fact. Nobody better.

I guarantee you he is the greatest leader as well.

I understand, and I agree! Never have I, nor will I ever, feel anything remotely similar to that by listening to LeBron give an interview. It's a travesty that people even try to compare the two. MJ exudes greatness, mastery, brutal honesty, intensity, integrity. He is without a doubt the greatest athlete of my lifetime at least.

Hell yeah. Every single person on his teams mattered.

Meanwhile LeBum goes ring chasing by jumping teams and trading the entire roster, but still can't get enough LeHelp. 🤣 Funny how Bronsexuals can't help themselves try to defend their fake goat. 🤣

he spent much of it talking about himself, fanboy.

@@JohnnyBGood-vm7rx He goes chasing the rings and he seems to get them hmm. The end goal is to get the ring. You want a player to not aim for that? Initially Cleveland wasn't doing shite for Lebron. I'm sure Lebron didn't want to be another Allen Iverson. (Have him do everything, not provide him some help and in turn kind of stunt his growth) *By stunting A.I's growth I mean not being able to rely on his teammates, because for the longest while he had nadda. *Oh and guess what, Kobe was ready to leave if the Lakers didn't provide him any help, people seem to forget that. *Lastly not Lebron's fault people want to play with him lol. He had to go against that staked Spurs/Golden State teams (and possibly soon that ridiculous Brooklyn team). Dealing with that you need all the help you can get.

@@kenlen8029 I'm really surprised that besides your comment here, I haven't read any other opinion on this video that agrees with this blatantly obvious truth. Surely, in this large comment section, I would expect to see a balance of people liking this interview and cringing at this interview; but alas, not the case! Round of applause to the interviewer; she started off asking MJ about Luc, but when she realized that MJ is only interested in talking about how MJ's competitive obsession produces greatness, she started asking MJ about MJ!

THIS is leadership. Understanding the people around them. Their motivations. Their skill sets. As opposed to the so-called "making team-mates better" by just dishing out assists so that they score more.

MJ always give great interviews. He just doesn't do many of them. There's a reason why whenever he does an interview, people make great memes out of it, because they're impactful. MJ crying meme, MJ taking it personally meme, MJ laughing at Gary Payton meme etc.

@@micsunday14 Dont know enough about boxing to comment but Bradman and Jordan both changed the rules of their entire sport with Bodyline and Hand-Checking.

Lol exactly!!! In an era where centers were beasts! The league had Shaq, Alonzo, hakeem, dikembe, ewing, David Robinson etc...these guys were owning luc and Bill wellington. Jordan did it in the earlier 3 peat with bums too....will Purdue and cartwright lol

Luc was a pretty good fit in the triangle offense. He was serviceable as a defender and rebounder and his weaknesses there were helped by having Rodman probably the greatest defender and definitely the greatest rebounder at the PF position in NBA history.

His time is money. Literally he gave hundreds of thousands or dollars in his own time to do this interview. The Greatest Of All Time!

It seems like a Chicago Verse, First was MJs Then Lucs, Waiting for Kerr's and Toni's, Pipp and RodMan are in the works I think.

Fr, because MJ doesn’t even really do interviews

Thanks for that comment. That's real.

@B. Chan i hate to be the bringer of bad news here, but i think you're wrong. see the thing is, whoever you give jordan, in his prime, as supporting role, jordan would've been the same to them, pushing them to their utmost potential. and of course this is a team sport, but jordans mentality and leadership propelled these guys to levels they never knew they could reach. i would say that without coach jackson and the triangle, it would've been a different story for jordan.

@B. Chan Great thought.

@B. Chan lol, everbody know who is Tony Kukoc before he went in NBA trust me people who know who is Toni

All those players would have been great on any team. Bulls had a 55 win season when Jordan quit that one year.

@@Starch1b2c3d4a and then they were .500 the year after that. MJ turned that team into a 72 win team in 96 but no one sais that.

MJ is a cut above all others, not just in basketball. We are blessed to have been able to experience him & the Bulls. Coming from a mavs fan

Bang on there bloke 🤙

But he did it. It says a lot. By the way, the guy who worked on they doc explained that he didn’t finish it and he planned to do much more, but cuz of COVID, he put it out early.

jordan was tough on his teammates .. but he cared about them .. he felt bad that Luke wasn’t included in the last dance .. i watched luke in college and i watched all the bulls games and he was an important player.. he was a starter for 3 years and that’s big

It’s Luc who doesn’t want to be in the Show. It was said he had to change phone numbers to avoid the producers’ calls

No offense, but MJ didn't make the documentary. Ultimately it was Jason Hehir decision what he puts in his (lets not forget) artistic documentary. At the end of the day, might have been an artistic choice. Maybe not enough materials. Maybe something else. But ultimately I think it was the fact that he worked on this thing for 10 episodes for decades. He had no way to predict 2 things. That it was going to be received this well (and that everybody wanted it longer), and covid. However, now the door is open. And tons of people are making more content about that time. We're watching it. So Jason documentary might have not covered everything, but left an open door for others to cover it. Personally i enjoyed every minute of this interview.

he always had recognition. everybody that played minutes on that team did. they cant all be MJ

Notice how he emphasized being the Physical leader of the team so that they can execute whatever the coaches damanded of them. He respected his coaches and knew his role as a player was to execute the coaches gameplan.

Wasn’t a very genuine dude when he punched his teammates

@@averagegoslingenthusiast2033 He was genuine about winning. By the end of the day, with a championship in the hand, that is all that mattered.
