You don't like alot of people, first abe now Michael Jordan. What gives?
It's the civil war that I don't like... But Jordan is overrated. He was the worst fucking ball hog the game has ever seen and the Bulls didn't win shit until Phil got him to start playing team ball.
His teamates, to a man hated his guts. Even Horace Grant, a gentle soul, threatened to kick his ass....once, in practice little Steve Kerr fouled Jordan and Mike punched him in the face. How do you think that went over with his teamates?
As far a Pippin goes, he and Mike always guarded each other in practice and it was a wash. And as you know, Jordan never won a ring w/out Scotty, and vi ca verca. If I was to chose a team, I would take about 10 guys before Mike....West, Oscar, Bill, Wilt, Barkley, Lew, Petit, Magic, Clyde and a couple more whose names don't come to mind.
On a personal note, I know for a fact that he is a scumbag. He came to gamble at my Casino once when I was working. I talked to the Pit Boss at lunch and he recounted this story: Jordan was playing Blackjack in a roped off erea, betting big bucks. He played for about 6 hours. The dealers were exited because huge bettors are rare in Tunica MS Casino's.
They quickly lost their excitement when they realized that he was a stone stiff, not tipping a red cent to any dealer, even if they put him on a heater. Finally, said Pit Boss asked him why he didn't tip. "It's tip enough for them to just deal to me"
