The ongoing feud between NBA legends Michael Jordan and Isiah Thomas has once again resurfaced, this time due to comments made in the documentary series “The Last Dance.” Jordan’s former teammate Scottie Pippen has also been critical of the six-time champion, adding fuel to the fire.
During a recent appearance on “The Draymond Green Show,” Thomas expressed his refusal to forgive Jordan for calling him an offensive name on international television. The Detroit Pistons legend outlined what it would take for the two to reconcile, emphasizing the need for a public apology if Jordan truly didn’t mean the derogatory remarks.
Jordan, on the other hand, stood by his comments in “The Last Dance,” stating that Thomas’ reputation across the NBA during his playing days solidified his perception of him as an “a–hole.” The documentary also addressed the long-standing rumor that Jordan played a role in Thomas’ exclusion from the 1992 United States men’s Olympic basketball team, known as the “Dream Team.”
Despite the ongoing tension between the two basketball icons, Thomas remains a respected figure in the NBA community, having had a successful career as a player and coach. The feud between Jordan and Thomas continues to captivate fans and spark debate among basketball enthusiasts. Stay tuned for more updates on this ongoing saga.
