“It was a little embarrassing that I was seen so often”

Steve Kerr It would have been nice to see each other so often in The Last Dance. Never a holder at the Bulls, the former back now coach of the Warriors appears more often than his former teammates Ron Harper and Luc Longley, both starters in the three teams of Michael Jordan’s second Three-Peat in Chicago.

“Honestly I find the documentary leans a little too much on me and a little too often. This is interesting because even though it lasts 10 hours, they probably could have gone on and up to 50 hours.

But I know a lot of us have felt that Ron Harper and Luc Longley should have been mentioned. They were holders in this team, holders of the three sacred champion teams even, and we had very few references to them. So it was a bit embarrassing to be seen so often.

But I understand that those who made the film had to focus on what they wanted and who was available, Luc is holed up somewhere in a remote corner of Western Australia… So yes there is things that I would have liked to see. Steve Kerr via ‘Jemele Hill Is Unbothered’ podcast

Regarding Longley, the director Jason Hehir explained that his absence was explained purely by a lack of budget. As for Ron Harper, he only appears once, to talk about Jordan’s ‘Shot’ on his then-teammate Craig Ehlo in 1989. Among the members of the Bulls of the time who did not appear in The Last Dance, we can also quote Craig Hodges.
