Episode 5 Of ‘The Last Dance’ Is Dedicated To Kobe Bryant

 

Ever since the premiere of ESPN Films and Netflix’s joint production ‘The Last Dance’, a 10-part documentary about Michael Jordan and the 1990s Chicago Bulls, the basketball world hasn’t stopped talking about Jordan, Pippen, Rodman and their teammates.

In Episode 5, that will premiere this coming Sunday, another NBA legend will be in focus though; the late, great Kobe Bryant.

 

“Episode 5 is dedicated to Kobe Bryant. His interview was filmed at his office in Costa Mesa last July and they edited it a week before his passing. They went back and looked at it after but it was perfect; nothing needed to be changed. The only edit was the dedication at the top.”

 

 

It is no secret that Bryant, who was tragically killed in a helicopter crash on January 26, molded his own game around Michael Jordan, perfecting his moves, taking on the same persona, studying every single aspect of his game, mirroring his killer mentality – Bryant obviously was more than just a copy of Jordan, but watching him on the court was truly reminiscent of the Bulls legend.
