  1. This is the part that I clearly remember and try to let it be known when it comes to the Mike and lebron argument. At a certain point in his career you could not touch Mike at all without it being a foul. It helped him period.

  2. He was mad that he actually had to play basketball is what it sounds like. No where in the rule book even before the bad boys did it say it was legal to just RKO someone mid layup. I get it, it was hard nose basketball back then. But that don’t take skill. That’s why people now say players in this era would be legends in the older era. Because you got guys like Isiah promoting aggression and not talent. David stern was smart to understand that rough and aggressive basketball isn’t going to last. He got behind Jordan and watched him single handly change the whole landscape of basketball all around the world in 8 years.

    All in all. Zeke just mad he wasn’t better than Jordan. Simple and plain.

  3. He not right! Jordan complained about the "unnecessary roughness " fouls that Zeke others Pistons. YouTube videos where Zeke and Chuck Daly came up with FRAGRANT FOULS (Jordan Rules(! You and others Bad Boys except Dumars intentionally fouling him to inflict pain on him so he would come into the lane. You tried to purposely hurt a man because you couldn't stop him offensively. That's why he hates you! Tell the truth it's been too long!

  4. And some Jordan dick riders think LeBron James at 6'8 260 couldn't 🎉 play in that Era lmao 😂 it why I don't take Jordan fans serious lol

  5. Zeke be telling stories like no others. He is not afraid to talk about different aspects of the NBA.

  6. He's lying…MJ wasn't saying nothing…you can see the games …he got knock down but he got back up…

  7. Zeke stop, and even if he did you mofo's was trying cripple people on your way to a three peat. You were done you weren't winning a third title you'll were old your time had pass. Be mad at yourself for dumb mistakes against the Celtics in the 88 ECF. You wonder why nobody wanted you on the 92 Dream Team.😂😂

  10. This dude needs to let it go, enjoy your life. Mj not spending a second on any talk show or podcast. He’s fishing or golfing🤷‍♂️
