Twenty Years Apart, Signature Moments for LeBron James and Michael Jordan

Posted Jun 22, 2016
Twenty years apart, Michael Jordan and LeBron James wept unashamedly after winning an N.B.A. championship on Father’s Day. When tears for a title flow, the heart of the game is bared, and those who form its soul become clearer in focus. Largely in sorrow, Jordan sobbed on the locker room floor of United Center in Chicago on June 16, 1996. (New York Times)
