Talk your talk big Ze
THE PIVOT PODCAST LET'S MAKE SURE WE GIVE OUR BROTHERS OVER THAT SIDE CREDIT
Love Zeke
I stand with Zeke , MJ been on some punk shit but y’all in media love to protect & give passes to ya hero 🤷🏿♂️
Why is this man sitting hear trying to explain why The McLean Ruckus is causing some old ruckus again! He too old for this💩. Hey Zeke your peers just didn’t like you bro🤷♂️😩
All this sounds so familiar, same way some of y’all try to discredit the Warriors’ championships🤷♀️
DETROIT
Bad Boys
If you don't want them to talk about it stop asking them questions
They (Zeke and MJ) just need to just go ahead and 🥊🥊! 🤷🏾♂️
Zeke still talking about this shit? Get over it.
Please do a segment on that Donavan Mitchell interview about Utah. LOL
Jordan felt dismissed and in unacknowledged at the moment he finally arrived when the Pistons refused to shake hands. He’ll never stop showing them the same disrespect. The man just holds grudges. 🤷🏾♂️
Can somebody help Ishiah remember when Michael and the Bulls finally did beat him and the Pistons they sat there and walked off the court and didn’t shake they’re hands bc they were sore losers but you wanted this man to give you flowers and respect after that? Isiah gotta stop playing that victim role when it comes to this rivalry.
Detroit had one of the greatest defensive games
This is the Zeke I know and love!!
Remember when Isiah said to the media, "if Larry Bird was black he'd just be another good player"
Isiah Thomas is such phony, this guy had beef with all the greats of that era something he will continue to lie about even today.
A big part of the rivalry that goes unspoken is Isiah was from Chicago and actually wanted to be drafted to the Bulls, there's a story that he came to visit his nephew in Chicago and saw him I'm Jordan gear with posters in his room, he was pissed to say the least (pretty sure this was before they even played in the playoffs)
Keep trying Isaiah and Pistons fans. You can't undo JORDAN as the goat or HIS AIRNESS GREATNESS🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. And Isaiah from Chicago, but Jordan is more loved there than him. Hilarious
Jordan's not talking. He's gone on with his life. Isaiah's yelling at the clouds. Must be rough for him trying to get attention yet continues to get ignored by him.
this is a crying shame, cats trying to erase Michael Jordan from all of basketball history and misleading a whole generation to fall for it…….cats can't focus on the current NBA, but are being swayed to keen on what happened 35 years ago….this is almost 2023 and cats trying to disect what happened in 1988 and STILL get it all wrong…
Your absolutely correct. People think Jordan's words are gold.. When the pistons walked off the court without shaking their hands showing hood sportsmanship that drew the line
Zele always been a sucka. He dissed his kissing buddy Magic, he bankrupted the CBA , he got run out of NYC. The Pistons had a great team and were back to back champions. Pippen doesn’t headache out and the Bulls probably win a year earlier.
After 2020 they still acting like this?? They're both too old. Isiah helped freeze Jordan out the ASG and didn't shake hands after the sweep, and Jordan said he wouldn't play on the Dream Team with 'Zeke. They could've put him on the team and left Jordan off, they still would've won. Be mad at Rod Thorn and the NBA for not marketing the Detroit dynasty the way it should've been. They both just need to box it out and move on.
Notice, Isaiah Thomas talks about this so-called rivalry more than Jordan ever has. Isaiah Thomas is jealous and bitter clearly. He’s big mad that Jordan has the GOAT status to this day.
Isaiah is like the ex gf who can’t let shit go. You done moved on, got married, kids and you still upset. Jordan lives rent free in his grad and heart
Isaiah race baiting . Ok..
Zeke keeps giving that lame story that he's the only one to beat all 3 (Bird, Magic, and Jordan), while ommitting the fact that all 3 of them beat him also. Bird and Magic beat him before he beat them. So that argument always amazes me and no one ever calls him on it.
They tried to hurt MJ and that wasn’t 🏀 period.
Are y’all sure dude is from my city because we don’t cry like Bs
Cry me a river 😢😢😢
The only Jordan I ever owned was Jordan 1 and 2. Never wore another pair. Jordan don't like black people.
They made Isiah the villain because they used M.J. to carry the league……they just want everyone to believe that Jordan can do no wrong…. perfect guy. Put some respect on the Bad Boys accomplishments…… Great champions
It's a lot Isiah Thomas hate. Jordan talks about the all star game freeze out as the beginning of the hate. But all the guys they mentioned that supposedly help Isiah freeze him out was on the western all star team. Lol make it make since. Look who was on the east squad and tell me why no one in that team has ever been questioned about it? Doc, Moses Malone, Bird, McHale etc … I think Isiah even gave Jordan a couple of assist in the game. Jordan is a lair.
Bill Simmons put it best- The Pistons were what Larry Holmes was in heavyweight boxing. He wasn't Ali, he wasn't Tyson, just a really good fighter in-between those 2 eras that the public just didn't love bc of their style and lack of charisma. Is what it is.
That AllStar game freeze out was a complete lie though
That was a real foul. It’s sad dudes are calling that a phantom foul. That era shot the most free throws since nba/aba merger.
Pistons injured Pippen in 1989 game 6, injured MJ in 1990 game 1. Laimbeer shoved that 1 guy on Bucks, as he was catching the ball, he blew out his acl. Tv commentators tried to not show the Laimbeer push, as the guy was catching the ball, trying to protect the NBA’s image.
What about when the Celtics did it to the Pistons when they got defeated finally in 88 🤷🏾♂️ nobody talks about that
MJ as a solo player DOMINATED the Pistons. They had to whoop his ass to win. Didn't IT play until 94? What happened all them years? IT been jealous. MJ is more loved in the Chi and he can't stand it.
Far too many people be riding Jordan's schlong!
Zeke need to quit crying
It bothers me when this guy said that the pistons played within the rules. They were trying to cripple MJ. They got away with murdered. And MJ never complained on the court. He keep coming. In every lost he when and look for Isaiah. And check his hand. Even embrace him once. That MJ happens to go to the media and said that they need to clean the game. He was right. When Isaiah sprained his ankle,it wasn't that Kareem put his foot on purpose so Isaiah can sprained his ankle. You had a bunch plays that they could of end up MJ career. Show me one time on those series when Isaiah was thrown to the floor like they did MJ.Theres pictures with evidence. There is picture of a played when Isaiah grabbing the ball from behind MJ neck,that was physical. But you saw a rodman,putting his knee on MJ growing and punching him on the stomach. Other time,he was driving to the middle and 3 pistons crown him.but you saw rodman again throwing MJ on floor. Even the last played on the last series they could of end up Scottie career. When lambeer throw his entire body with force. Hitting Scottie right on his jaw with his forearm,and them rodman came from behind and throw him to the ground. Scottie could end up being seriously hurt. That's playing within the rules. And Isaiah was the captain,He should of said to lambeer forget about that. We went to war, and every time we won MJ always look for me and check my hand and show me some respect. We going to do the same. But no you let your teammate, dictated your decision. And you ruined your reputation not lambeer because no one like your teammate or respect your teammate. They respect it you. The only reason that the Boston Celtics didn't shake your hand. It was because of your dirty teammate. Did Isaiah forgot that lambeer on a played,almost broke Larry's back. And you saw Isaiah with a smirk on his face. Like laughing at the indecent. You saw how mad Bird was. And the last straw that keep you for playing with the Dream team. It wasn't not shaking MJ hand. It was the comments that you made to your mentor magic Johnson. When he got the HIV virus. You said on national television that the only people the contracted that virus are homosexual. Insinuating that your friend and mentor was gay. And we didn't see you on that press conference or show any support for your friend. That's what the last straw that kept you from playing on that team.
