ESPN's "The Last Dance" came around at the perfect time. Seeing all sports are on hiatus due to the coronavirus, we were all drawn into this deep dive of the Michael Jordan-led Chicago Bulls dynasty.

But the worldwide leader in sports probably had no idea that it was sitting on a treasure trove of footage that would be ripe for glorious memes. From the reactions by Jordan in interviews, footage from the team's 1998 championship run for a sixth title, the random appearance by Leonardo DiCaprio after the Bulls won the NBA Finals in 1998. There was so much to make into memes from its 10 episodes.

Here are the best of the best from "The Last Dance":

Michael Jordan reacting to what Detroit Piston rival Isiah Thomas said in the docuseries was the first big meme from the show.

There would be many memes launched from Jordan's interviews, like this look at the camera.

And there's the laugh he gave when watching an interview where Seattle Supersonics star Gary Payton said he gave Jordan problems when they faced one another.

Dennis Rodman explaining his rebounding technique also led to fun memes.

And people got a kick out of Barack Obama being called just a "former Chicago resident" when he first appeared on the show (he would be called president in later episodes).

But the footage from the 1998 season also had meme-worthy moments. Like the reaction by one of Jordan's security guards after beating him in a dice game.

And his huge competitive drive to win that made him hate his opponents.

Then there's just stuff that the internet can't pass up. Like Jordan jamming out to music on the team bus (there's a twitter account dedicated to it now).

The screaming Indiana Pacers fan.

Leonardo DiCaprio randomly appearing outside the locker room after the Bulls won the title in 1998.

It led to the activation of the Leo pointing meme from "Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood."

Some great memes came after Jordan talked about the infamous "flu game."

Basically, "The Last Dance" is undeniable proof that Jordan is a living meme.
