Michael Jordan is one of the most beloved athletes of all time, grabbing the hearts of millions through his play. That said, everyone hasn’t been Team Jordan, and with love comes hate.
Isiah Thomas, A former NBA legend who has had his fair share of battles with Jordan, shared his thoughts on how the two could repair their damaged relationship. Truth be told, these two were never that close, with rumors speculating that it was Thomas who didn’t want Jordan as an All-star his rookie campaign to Jordan allegedly being the reason Thomas was left off the dream team.
Neither rumor was confirmed, yet when you add in the physical battles between Detroit and Chicago, it’s easy to see why the two players could be at odds. According to Thomas, he believed they were on good terms until he watched the last dance, where Jordan called out the Piston star, calling him an a-hole.
Those comments didn’t sit well with Thomas, and when appearing on the Draymond Green show, he made it clear what would need to happen for the two to get back on good terms.
It will be interesting to see if Jordan gives Thomas the apology he’s looking for or if he stands by his comments. One thing is for sure, we have never seen Jordan back away from a challenge, even if that challenge is an apology.
