[@CELTAHelper]

First time I feel like I have seen an interview where MJ is able to really be himself. Interesting

[@YoogiNation]

CELTA Helper TV probably had something to do with that glass of hard liquor in front of him

[@CELTAHelper]

They should have called this series 'Michael Jordan: Unguarded'

[@CELTAHelper]

​@@YoogiNation He likes a drink all right. I listened to this audiobook last year and it paints what seems like a fairly accurate picture of MJ (warts and all) amzn.to/2T1Y1Ml (and yes, that is an affiliate link - alternatively, just google 'michael jordan books' and you will find it)

[@eastsiderider9762]

He's always himself fuck you mean

[@RollyFingers]

@@eastsiderider9762 nah...he's always politically correct, guarded, and safe in his interviews. We all saw a different side of him in his HOF speech. This interview is just like his HOF speech, very candid.

[@Wis_Dom]

You didn't hear the interview at all, did you? He said he interviewed him 12 years ago. So clearly they are old buddies. Why would he be? You idiots comment based off of their emotions rather than logic. You don't like Jordan...we get it!

[@ChimcharrNo1]

This guy probably met Castro thats why lol

[@timothylarkin4916]

Wis Dom calm down potato. Where did you get that he didn’t like Jordan. Just because he interviewed him doesn’t mean they’re friends, it’s an interview. He was just commenting how the guy wasn’t star struck like a lot of other people who’ve interviewed him and he’s right. No one said anything about not liking mike😂

Some of it was adidas fault. They lost big on mj so they were looking for the next “mj” and groomed Kobe to be like that

he studied him *a bit* too much

[@JSB-2Z-2K]

@@YEE941 Kobe took the opportunity with adidas, but it goes beyond that, Kobe really wanted to be the greatest for himself not just to show off for adidas. The guy was litteraly studying Jordan tapes, his moves, his mindset, behaviour with other players, and constantly asked Mike's advises for everything. And he was very smart to do it

[@greatomeister675]

[@plainnsimple78]

I die laughing each time I see that part of the interview. Jordan's finger is like slowly coming into view, waits for a millisecond to see if the guy will hand him over the lighter, Jordan is like "pass me the lighter fool" the guys is like, "My name aint Scottie Pippen, fuck you, this is my show, I ain't passing you shit, stop interrupting my cuba story" LOL

[@TraumaER]

The guy is showing who is alpha at the table. Especially when Jordan asked if he ever been to Cuba to measure how much better he is to him. Then the guy says "many times" and puts Jordan in his place.

[@plainnsimple78]

Yes very true. Jordan thought he had him and the other guy was like "Bitch please, I am the Wilt Chamberlain of Cuba and cigars"

King Greg no, just isn’t supposed to char half of one side of a cigar. The ideal light is to toast the foot (the part you light) and just barely around the edges of the foot. Once that is done, you make sure you get a nice even burn. To aficionados like us, doing that to a everyday cigar is bush league, doing to a $100 plus pre embargo Cuban is worse than killing puppies.

kben is that all you mj stand have to say? You’re still talking about his 2011 finals like if it was the only year of his career. Why you don’t talk about the way he beat a 73-9 team in the finals 30ppg 9apg and 11 rbg. You mj stans are so delusional it’s crazy lebron is way more complete than mj. Lebron wasn’t mentally the best while he was younger but now he’s the best ever. You guys don’t understand the constant pressure that athletes have to go through with social media. Mj didn’t have this pressure.

[@Frostshokula]

Solomon S Did he really beat a 73-9 team or did he beat a shadow of it? I mean they had injuries and a suspension.

I like how Jordan still says "I want to..." dude is a billionaire and still has things to do.

[@mergiemerge1120]

1:54 my man, that's why Jordan is the GOAT.

[@236santi]

I am not even into cihars or anything, just watched it because Jordan is in the video, which is super rare as he never appears on interviews

[@AD-kv9kj]

0:42 - Yeah, why not destroy the foot of that ancient and expensive cigar rather than light it properly? Good plan.

[@matts6551]

I know right, him and MJ really screwed that one up. Plus they’re indoors why not use a soft flame

[@PatrickPierceBateman]

His hands make that cigar look like a cigarette.

Michael is wearing a very interesting and unique watch. It’s the Urwerk UR-202S.

[@alanthesalamander2327]

How can you tell so easily lol.

[@peteng13]

Alan The Salamander I’ve seen him wearing it before and am a lil familiar with watches in general 😉

[@spongymcfonsworth]

Yea i jus googled that watch hot dam $200,000 plus watch that is jus amazing and motivating from my middleclass view holy shit!

[@Cables_]

I'm Canadian and have been to Cuba multiple times, watching people make cigars by hand is extremely interesting

[@tommycarrizal1656]

Wow where's the full interview this was epic

[@bjduncan9704]

“I wish I could buy one of those old cars and have it shipped back here” lol you can MJ. You’re a billionaire

[@JS-te4gz]

Hilarious how he charred almost half the cigar😂

[@xx7legion7xx99]

I was going to say the same thing. And this guy is doing an interview for cigar aficionado.

[@matts6551]

Not only did he char it up, MJ did as well. He had a triple torch completely in the delicate tobacco. Why not use a match or a soft flame lighter, which burns cooler and is more controllable

[@TommyTomTompkins]

Jordan skin looks so good his complexion is really nice

[@officialstevencrowder2278]

Black dont crack

MJ needs to do more of these chats like this smoking cigars and just hanging out.

[@rudy1999]

I like how he comes out time to time to talk about something that is never basketball related lol

[@r_a_]

0:45 look at it this way. He's fully immersed to tell his story so he didn't notice that sir Jordan needed the lighter. It can happen to the best of us.

[@jasonism123]

jesus christ..those huge hands..hands of the GOAT.
