Bill Simmons doesn’t think Dennis Rodman, former most interesting man in the world, is very interesting

MIKE NELSONThe world needs another story about the Jordan-era Chicago Bulls about as much as it needs to the leader of the free world to keep telling his desperate, uninformed constituency that drinking Clorox will kill the coronavirus. It's Monday afternoon, less than 24 hours after the premiere of episodes three and four of 'The Last Dance,' and The Loop alone is already up to three Bulls-centric posts and counting. We say counting, because when Bill Simmons fired up the Twitter oven on Monday afternoon and the warm, comforting smell of terrible take cake began wafting through the house, we had no choice but to go ahead and finish off the quartet with a doozy. Go ahead, Bill. Do us the honors.

We didn't want to do this. Really, we didn't. We were this close to holding off too, but then ol' Bill circled back for more punishment, clarifying it was everyone else's fault that he's an idiot…

Eminem once jokingly threatened to dunk on Michael Jordan, nearly torpedoed shoe deal

Kevin MazurAlright, we're going to level with you: Every Monday for the next month, you're going to get absolutely flattened by Michael Jordan stories. We're talking straight-up steamrolled. You can blame ThE dAMn mEdIA or you can blame ESPN's 10-part documentary 'The Last Dance,' which airs every Sunday night with a new clip of Michael-Jordan-was-the-most-competitive-SOB-to-ever-walk-this-earth stories locked and loaded. This week, those tall tales centered around the Bulls' battles with (and eventual vanquishing of) the Bad Boy Pistons and, of course, Carmen Electra, but the most telling story of the week wasn't part of 'The Last Dance' at all. Instead it came by way of one Eminem, who recently appeared on Sway in the Morning with this gem about the time he once joked about dunking on Michael Jordan to Michael Jordan's face. First mistake, last mistake, as they say.
I don’t know Paul [Eminem's manager Paul Rosenberg], if you..

No one has ever enjoyed anything as much as Horace Grant enjoyed calling the Pistons ‘straight up bitches’

The first two episodes of “The Last Dance,” while very good, left a bit to be desired. We were promised tons of behind-the-scenes, never-before-seen footage, candid interviews and a whole bunch of profanity. What we got was some background on Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, and highlights from each of their careers. It was still better than most sports documentaries, but viewers were left wanting more.

We got it and then some on Sunday night in episodes three and four, which chronicled the intense rivalry between the Chicago Bulls and the Detroit Pistons in the late 80s and early 90s, as well as both Dennis Rodman and Phil Jackson's eccentricities. But the star of the night had to be Horace Grant, who played power forward for the Bulls from 1987 to 1994 and was a part of the franchise's first three-peat.
While Jordan took much of the brunt from the “Bad Boy” Pistons, Grant took p..
