I always assumed the "white men can't jump" was about white people believing in team work over individual show boating from dunking.

For example; Jordan's one man team on the Bulls up against shorties like John Stockton and Jeff Hornacek. Those Jazz vs Bulls games were the last good games I ever watched. Jordan fouled the fuck out of them so he could retire with that ring but the Jazz was the superior team by far.

Edit: on a side note, when they say he was an it if nowhere rural boy... They aren't lying. I lived in Utah and drove by his house every time in the way to my Grandma's house. Easily a 15 minute drive to his neighbor's house from where he grew up.

Going off childhood memories but pretty sure it was his childhood home that was just way off the side of the road surrounded by a bunch of desert.
