For fans of Netflix's The Last Dance, this is the definitive
account of Michael Jordan's spectacular and disastrous return to
basketball. As one of the greatest, most celebrated athletes in
history, Michael Jordan conquered professional basketball as no one
before. Powered by a potent mix of charisma, near superhuman
abilities and a ferocious drive to dominate the game, he achieved
every award and accolade conceivable before retiring from the
Chicago Bulls and taking an executive post with the Washington
Wizards. But retirement didn't suit the man who was once king, and
at the advanced age of thirty-eight Michael Jordan decided it was
time to reclaim the court that was once his. Having closely
followed Jordan's final two seasons, Michael Leahy draws a
fascinating portrait of an intensely complex man hampered by
injuries and assaulted by younger players eager to usurp his
throne. In this enthralling book Jordan emerges as an ambitious, at
times deeply unattractive character with, unsurprisingly, a
monstrous ego. WHEN NOTHING ELSE MATTERS is an absorbing portrait
not only of one athlete's overriding ambition, but also of a
society so in thrall to its sports stars that it is blind to all
their faults.
