So, what now, right? Well, you can watch all 10 eps of The Last Dance over and over again, or you can check out these cool sports documentaries available on various platforms. (This is not an exhaustive list, just some of my recent favourites)
Formula 1: Drive to Survive (Netflix)
Equally engaging and illuminating. Go behind the scenes of the super fast world of Formula 1. The great news is - there are TWO seasons already available on Netflix. And oh, do turn up the volume for this one!
Kareem: Minority of One (HBO)
A more contemplative character, Kareem Abdul Jabbar also won everything during a dominant 20-year career in the NBA. Fun fact: The College Basketball Association (or whatever it's called), actually BANNED the slam dunk just to stop him from steamrolling over everyone.
Make Us Dream (Amazon Prime)
The story of Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard. Fierce and prodigious on the field, reserved and sensitive off it. The Istanbul scenes are guaranteed to give you goosebumps. Yet again.
Iverson (Netflix)
Another excellent bball documentary. Iverson was the bad boy destined for both greatness and destruction. A powerful story, this.
Senna (Netflix)
The heartbreaking story of the greatest F1 driver ever who lost his life on the track at his peak. And Formula 1 was wild back then, man...
Free Solo (NatGeo)
There are mental people who climb up rocks and mountains with no ropes whatsoever. And this guy, Alex Honnold, who conquered the famed El Capitan is one of the best. The dude's freakin' nuts lah.
Undertaker The Last Ride (WWE Network)
OK, this is the only one I've yet to watch. But it's about the Undertaker - so it must be awesome! And yes, wrestling IS sports. Wanna fight me?
