To challenge one of those points, that wasn't a push off at all. Dude was already falling before MJ touched him.
I truly don't know how anyone can watch that and come to the conclusion that Jordan pushed off on Russell.
I remember watching it live and not buying that. Still don't buy it. Russell was already going that direction and off-balance.
Okay but what about the other 4 things which were way funnier, and thus more important, than the push off thing.
Zeke is an awful human being. He stabbed Magic Johnson in the back. He always had something shitty to say about MJ and Pippen. He started fights on the courts only because his goon squad team would keep him safe. He was a coward through and through. Factor in him being a douchebag to Bird about being white and all that...plus he lost a sexual harassment lawsuit...dude is trash.
No one likes him. It's because he sucks.
Yep.
And if you really think about it prior to the Olympic team the Pistons had just lost to the Bulls and walked off the court without shaking hands. That is poor sportsmanship, does anyone really think that the people arranging the Olympics wants that kind of player representing the country? Not likely. I think the only reason why Isaiah eventually got on was because people started to feel sorry for him but i dont blame anyone for not putting him on that first team after the way they handled their loss to Chicago.
Jordan was/is widely credited with changing the drug culture in the NBA. That's a different can of worms but he basically took over the league and when his teams weren't partying insanely and winning, other top stars started demanding that out of their squads. It doesn't mean that he did/didn't partake from time to time. But, some of the old NBA party stories are eye opening. There was so much cocaine in the league you'd have thought Jerry Jones owned every franchise.
