The 1993 NBA Finals was a showdown between two of NBA’s biggest superstars of all time: Charles Barkley of the Phoenix Suns and Michael Jordan of the Bulls.

They were also great friends who went golfing together in the middle of the championship series.

According to Bulls assistant coach Johnny Bach:

That one always cracks me :lol

But no offense to Chamillionaire, but he even admits he doesn't like taking pictures with fans.

Having to take pictures with people gets annoying after having to do it 100000000000x.

A lot of celebrities don't do it period. The only reason the girls got the photos is the same reason good looking girls go to the front of the line in any club ... because they're good looking girls.

You know it’s bad news when the Bulls released one of the few teammates Jordan liked and brought in a player from a rival team.

Bad news for that player, that is.

Eric Freeman of "Yahoo! Sports" noted:

"When the Bulls let Charles Oakley go and brought in Bill Cartwright, Jordan resented the loss of his friend and took it out on Cartwright, calling him “Medical Bill” and intentionally throwing impossible-to-handle passes at him in practice to draw attention to what he perceived to be his bad hands."

Cartwright went on to help the Bulls win three championship rings with Michael Jordan, defending the paint against elite centers on opposing teams.

Jordan may not have wanted to admit it, but Cartwright’s “bad hands” contributed to Jordan’s success in a big way.

I'm sorry but Cartwright sucked and the Bulls lost that trade.

They should have kept Oakley, that dude was one of the meanest mofos to play the game and was better than Cartwright by the time the Bulls had traded him. I have little doubt that

C - Grant/token 7 foot white dude
PF - Oakley
SF - Pippen
SG - Jordan
PG - Paxson

Would be just as good, if not better. Oakley was the better scorer and rebounder by a good margin by 1990/91, Cartwright didn't do sh*t to stop the Pistons from beating up on Jordan/Pippen, Oakley would've sent Rodman's ass to the ground for trying some of the stuff he did.

In the Bulls’ first-round battle against the Charlotte Hornets in 1995 after Jordan’s highly touted comeback to the NBA, Jordan didn’t hesitate to leave his mark.

According to former Bulls assistant coach Johnny Bach, Jordan was guarding Muggsy Bogues when this happened:

"On the biggest possession of the game, Muggsy had the ball with the Hornets down one. Jordan backed off of him and told him, 'Shoot it, you f***ing midget.' Muggsy shot it, didn’t come close. A year later Muggsy actually told Johnny Bach that he believes that single play ruined his career. His shot never recovered."

The next year, Bogues’ career certainly started to decline. Whether or not Jordan was the primary reason for this is up to debate.
You're a cruel goat Mr.Jordan http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/11111/111119363/3816676-0704928121-36645.gif

[QUOTE]Scottie Pippen? Nothing but respect for Pippen. Great teammate. Great player. He was a thug when he came into the league, but really came around and they talk regularly now. Pippen and Jordan together defensively was as devastating a duo as there will ever be. Scottie and Michael used to compete on everything. Jordan used always claim his hands were bigger, but they weren

After one of the Bulls' practices in 1997, Scott Burrell, Jordan's teammate, challenged Jordan to a game of one on one. They played and Burrell had a good chance to beat Jordan with the score tied at six a piece (going up to seven). Burrell had the ball, but Ron Harper who was watching the game on the sidelines called Burrell for traveling. Jordan got the ball back and without hesitation drove past Burrell and dunked the ball making it a 7-6 victory. Michael got the last shot to win, but Burrell was right up in MJ's face trash talking. MJ didn't say a word and just walked off the court. A few days later Burrell convinced MJ to play again, but Jordan won easily this time. Again, Jordan just walked off the court without saying a word. But Burrell couldn't keep his mouth shut. Burrell said to MJ, "C'mon, let's go back out there and finish this!" Jordan replied, "You just want to play so you can go tell your kids when they grow up that you beat Michael Jordan once. What am I gonna tell my kids? I beat Scott Burrell? Big deal. They'll slap the hell out of me."

everyone knows gary payton was one of the biggest trash talkers ever. one night, he was going up against jordan. Payton was telling Jordan, "you ain't special, Mike - I got my ferraris and mercedes, too." And Jordan replied, "yeah, but you have to pay for yours."

"You (expletive) flaming (expletive)," Jordan exploded. "You don't get a foul call on a (expletive) little touch foul, you (expletive). You don't bring that (expletive) here. Get your (expletive) ass back on the floor and play. I don't want to hear that (expletive) out of you again. Get your ass back and play, you (expletive)."

Burrell said to MJ, "C'mon, let's go back out there and finish this!" Jordan replied, "You just want to play so you can go tell your kids when they grow up that you beat Michael Jordan once. What am I gonna tell my kids? I beat Scott Burrell? Big deal. They'll slap the hell out of me."

My favorite MJ story comes from early in his career, during the Bull first championship run. Prior to that season, MJ was generally viewed as a tremendously talented player who was too selfish to ever have much post-season success.

SMITH: The clincher, Game 5 [in Los Angeles], was sort of the bookend to Phil’s season. [The Bulls] are up [three games to one], but the Lakers are in it. The Forum’s going nuts, and [there’s] a time-out with six minutes to go. [The Lakers are] trapping Michael all over the court, and he’s in a fury trying to win this game by himself. And, like Detroit used to take advantage of him when he was like this, now the Lakers were doing it.

REINSDORF: The score, I believe, was 93–93, give or take a point. Phil calls a time-out, and he looks at Michael and he says, “Michael, who’s open?” Michael gives him a blank stare. He puts his hands on Michael’s shoulders and he says, “Michael, who’s open?” Michael says, “Paxson.” Phil says, “Get him the ****ing ball.” Paxson scores 10 points after that, and we win going away.

Michael Jordan is extremely afraid of having his legacy left in tatters.

During the 2016 finals he gave the green light to a ten hour long "documentary" about himself saving the Chicago Bulls. He slandered multiple team mates in the ten hour documentary while trying to regain his somewhat forgotten acclaim. (His former team mates did not like this). As the GOAT was on his way to winning his next chip MJ green lighted Michael Jordan To The Max to be screened in theaters during a global pandemic. (Hmm...) When Space Jam 2 (starring LeBron James) was released Michael Jordan suddenly gave a rare interview to Australian media that was supposed to be about Luc Longley and their times together at Chicago but was mostly about himself because he is a very selfish person. He appears calm in public but is well known to be an alcoholic sociopath behind the scenes.

It's quite obvious.

Tatters? How do you see that happening? Which active player is going to claim the GOAT title and leave MJ in the dust?

Is MJ watchful over his legacy? Sure. He's a self-centered narcissist. In his mind the universe revolves around Michael Jordan. He'll take steps to head off any potential challengers to his throne. Whether it's a documentary or a HOF speech where the he's only concerned about himself, or an interview (2017) where he says that he ranks Kobe above LeBron. Well, we all know that MJ is better than Kobe, so if MJ says Kobe is better than LeBron... MJ must be much better than LeBron! It's simple logic!

MJ is not "extremely afraid". There are no contenders on the horizon to his title as GOAT. He is watchful, and if he sees a chance to kick a rival in the teeth, he'll do it.

He's a blatant troll. He used to blurt out that he wanted him dead already so he can sell his old cards for a fortune.
