I saw Len Bias' mother speak at Norfolk St. U . She said that after Lenny died, the first flowers her family received were from Michael Jordan.

"he was too much handle" of course on that particular game Jordan was too much but it does not mean that Len bias is easy to handle-he scored 16 points so jordan and team mates can not easily handle len bias. words can make one so superior like saying that Jordan is too much to handle. if it is true. Jordan could have scored hundreds or even 50 points in that game.

It's hard for people who weren't alive then to understand how much Len Bias' death shocked and changed the sports world. College basketball was more popular than the NBA back then and Bias was a star. In the aftermath, every college and every pro sports league started aggressive drug testing. It also helped those wanting harsher prison penalties for drug dealers to get legislation passed.

Everytime I watch a video regarding Len Bias, I get emotional. I lived about 10 mins from him, he was about 4 years older than me and I can remember like it was yesterday when the news broke about him passing. It was like a weird fog of silence, sadness and disbelief over just about all the ballers in the area. It took a while for that "fog" to lift. It's hard for folks who weren't born or very young to appreciate just how good and fun to watch Bias was. I'm going to say, at that time, he was just as good as Jordan and may have been better had he lived. But I'm sure I have a great deal of bias, no pun intended. RIP/RIJ (rest in Jesus).

Thanks for making such a great video that showcases the greatness of both Lenny and MJ. I played against Lenny on a playground at Central High School in DC in '78. 3 on 3. And it was intense. We were the same age, end of 8th grade. Lenny was the first guy to ever dunk on me - shoelaces went by my face. Great player but even better person. His competitive fire was off the charts, too.

I grew up right by the University of Maryland and was in high school when Len Bias played for MD. I was active duty Navy - coming back home to Maryland from my deployment - when I got off the subway. People were weeping at the bus station as I walked from the subway. That's how I found out about Len Bias' death. I was crushed. Obviously we can only dream about what his career may have been. Videos like yours give him the respect I think he continues to deserve.

Then the news we all couldn’t believe, Bias was gone at 22 yrs of age! So heartbreaking for his family and friends and then the hopes of another Celtic dynasty surpassing the Lakers was also DEAD!!! Even tho we got to finals in 87’ the Lakers were the better team and if they had had Bias Celts would of swept, just the most agonizing and awful tragedy in the world of sports!! Bias had so much potential, he would of been right there with the GOAT!! RIP LB

I was a Duke student from 1982-1986. Len Bias was, and remains, the best college player I've ever seen. With all due respect to Len's teammates, he CARRIED the Maryland program at a time when the rest of the ACC (Duke, UNC, Virginia, NC State, Georgia Tech, etc.) was stacked. Further, had he not died tragically, the Celtics surely would've had another two or three championships. If you never saw Len play in person then it's hard to understand just how much of a talent he was.

Grew up in one of the projects in DC called 'Simple City'! His father Butch Bias and his mother Lonise Scott lived two doors from each other. I was about 9 when Lenny and my little brother were born about 2 months apart. My mother would babysit Lenny and sometimes Lenny's mother would babysit my brother. We put a basketball hoop on a light pole that had asphalt on it between the end of two of the rows of houses. Lenny's grandfather and uncle on his mother's side we're about the same height as he became. One of his mother's Brothers about 2 years older than me,, tapped me to play in the NBA when I was about 10. I was basically King Hooper of the little guys. Lenny's uncle had serious game. I moved away when Lenny was about four but during my visits the kid would be on that little Court and I remember them calling him Scooter or something. I started to hear about Lenny at northwestern. One of my nephew's attended the school at the same time and some of the boxers at the Takoma Langley gym attended there too. I was helping the coach with the boxing team. Although I followed Maryland basketball closely I didn't know he was the same little Lenny until after he died. I was training at a job about two blocks from Colefield House when they were having the funeral. One of my sisters called me that night and said she saw a lot of our friends we grew up with at Lenny's funeral. It was his mother father uncles and aunts brothers and sisters. Lenny's father's mother's name was Mrs Beale. She apparently had Lenny's father before she was married therefore the 'Bias' name. I did notice he had that straight up jumper that all of us had in Simple City but I didn't make the connection. I did make it to his brother Jay's funeral and I taught their little brother as a substitute teacher at Northwestern. I introduced myself to him. I was really sad to hear what happened to Lenny even before I knew who he really was. The guy who supposedly supplied the drugs to Lenny I don't remember him because he's so much younger than me but I knew some of his older siblings as well as another guy who I believe was shot at some point. By then we had moved to Northeast DC from Southeast DC. It was good to see this documentary but also kind of sad. It's always a big; 'what if'.

Michael Jordan’s athletic prowess was always upfront and wonderful, amazing to see. The talented, competitive, virtual superhero of a player who seemed to defy the laws of physics. But he had another side that many people never got to see. His kindness towards young kids, especially the disabled fans who came to see him play. After having 5 girls my Uncle and Aunt Ron and Jane Axium decided that they were called to adopt or foster 4 disabled kids. The first was my cousin Christopher. When Chris was adopted doctors told my aunt and uncle that Chris would never walk, might never talk clearly and would almost certainly die before 25. That was in the early 80’s. My aunt and uncle brought in half the neighborhood to pattern Chris, move his arm and leg muscles in ways that would increase nerve connections, help speech and coordination and hopefully extend his life. It worked. They did everything they could to mainstream and give Chris great experiences. One of those was taking Chris to Bulls games. By then MJ was a superstar and an amazing phenomenon to watch. Beauty in motion, top of the world. But somehow, he noticed the families with disabled perks and got to know them. Chris was 4’8? Jordon towered over him. But he especially liked these kids who showed such raw adoration for him. He got them great seats, near the team, so he could see their reactions, gave them signed posters and basketballs and on one special day gave Chris a full Chicago Bulls Uniform complete with shoes, socks, trunks, shirt (#24) and a personally signed basketball. For as long as I can remember whenever I walked over to their house, Chris was outside in uniform dribbling that ball. As time went on his coordination got better and better and he eventually took drum lessons at a music shop around the corner which would have stunned those early doctors. Of course, Chris is a wonderful human being who I admire for his joy and love of family. Here’s the thing though. In all those years in Chicago, I never saw a press release or story about Jordan’s acts of kindness to Chris and young fans like him. He had an impact on Chris’s life and transferred some small part of his drive to Chris. Enough so that one chilly fall Chicago night while Chris was sleeping on the back porch, “camping out” which he liked to do. He woke up when a disturbed kid who tried to set a number of churches on fire also, set their back porch on fire possibly because the kid was cold. Chris heard the back doorbell ring because the flames of the back porch working their way inwards and shorted the wires ringing the bell. This woke Chris, who rather than just running out the front door in panic, woke up his parents then his sisters and brothers upstairs. They all got out of the house literally seconds before a flash back from the open back door engulfed the interior of the house with flames. The kid with Downs Syndrome had saved 11 people’s lives that night. How much of that was enabled by Jordan’s kindness? I don’t know. Much of the credit goes to his immediate family and the many dozens in the neighborhood who volunteered helping to pattern The 4 adopted and fostered kids. But he certainly didn’t hurt.
