Adam & Noah react to episodes 9 & 10 of The Last Dance and give their final thoughts on the entire documentary. The guys question the legitimacy of the revelation that bad pizza (and not the flu) was the reason behind Michael Jordan's illness during Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals. They have intriguing thoughts about the remarkably large list of people Jordan has a vendetta against. Noah thinks Toni Kukoc deserved more love during the doc. Noah also wants the league to bring back awarding MVP trophies before playoff games, tries imagining big NBA playoff games without fans, and has one last question about Jordan's cigar smoking. Adam thinks Jerry Krause deserves credit for how he surrounded Jordan with shooters and appreciates Steve Kerr's self-deprecation. They also praise the broadcasting work of Doug Collins and Bob Costas during Jordan's iconic performance at the end of Game 6 in the 1998 NBA Finals and praise John Stockton for being John Stockton. And they reveal what they'll be doing now that The Last Dance is over.
