@@robertmitchell9529 no lol. Because at this point Mike is 60, and this all happened when he was like 25-30. After 30 years, you definitely lettin it ride to the grave
If he hasn’t spoken to Barkley in over 15 years , an that was his best friend at one time. What makes you think he will apologize to Isaiah . That will never happen .
Obviously Isiah knows Jordan meant to say he hated him. He's calling Jordan out to explain WHY he still carries that irrational hatred in his heart. If Michael doesn't deal with his demons, they'll continue to eat at him.
Isaiah's the one who has a beef with Michael Jordan and always have Michael isn't going to kiss Isaiah's ask which is what Isaiah wanted Michael to do he is not going to apologize to him because Isaiah started the whole damn thing I know how it all started it started because Isaiah was always jealous of Michael Jordan especially Michael Jordan's Nike contracts and everything else this is why him and Michael have beef it started when Isaiah told his teammates not to throw Michael the ball on the Olympic team and that was why they had a beef and the beef escalated because of the fact that they were in the same conference and played against each other for a number of years the bad boys were exactly that the band boys they trying to hurt people and Michael and the Bulls did not like that but Michael and the Bulls eventually whooped Isaiah and his bad boys asses! But Isaiah knows damn well he started the whole beef not Michael!
Doesn't sound like he is asking Mike to squash anything. He is cool with it but what he is saying don't low key try to fix it when he didn't lowkey break it. That's what I'm hearing .. but my hearing could be off since I really don't know the story.
@@sophiasmith5949 nah Zeke is rehashing the past about something he started... Zeke is from Chicago and has been bitter ever since Jordan was embraced by the city.
@@29larron I don't watch blk people play b ball nor b ball at all Karen 🖕 MJ is a basic player and that's why Alan Iverson crossed up that washed up 🙉 Now how many fanboys want to attack me👀👀
People love praising Jordan and Kobe for their competitiveness but when people are competitive against them it makes those players had people. Jordan lost against IT and then bitched about it, that's not being competitive that's being a sore loser
Isiah literally had the whole Pistons team trying to end MJ's career through injury.... I'm sure MJ has rewatched some of those Finals games and it probably solidified his hatred towards him even more
@@Xavier-389 Ok but MJ loved Chuck Dailey.. Those boys wanted to hurt him.. they even said it.. it was Isaiah plan not the coach but the coach went along with it.
@@rucianapollard7098 Especially since Isiah Thomas was better than Magic. That's the crux of the "Dream Team" controversy. Magic was given Isiah's spot, even though Isiah had surpassed Magic years before. Jordan played against Isiah Jordan far more times than did Magic. Isiah and the Pistons were Jordan's Bulls nemesis. That's the source of Michael Jordan's hatred for Isiah Thomas
@@jebidiahmorales227 Nobody took Isiah's spot. Isiah's spot was given to Magic. Stockton was given the backup point guard spot. I used to think Magic was the greatest point guard until 1986, when Isiah clearly surpassed him. When Isiah led the Pistons to back to back championships, he cemented his hold on the #1 spot. Zeek owned Magic and the Lakers. He also owned Stockton.
Then what did Isaiah mean by "having your friends apologize for you"? Has MJ tried some weak, back-door apology in private... or do you believe Isaiah made up that what he said?
@@donarthiazi2443Isaiah is a known liar he likes to say shit like that to ppl think mj tried to reach out to him,he said some shit about bird and then claimed he didn’t say it but the reporter played the tape of him at a press conference when he was showing fake love to bird smh he is a liar and a snake
@@Allen.Christian means you a sore looser, u gets no respect...u think MJ goes about his day talking about Isaiah 🤣🤣🤣....couple times a month Isaiah on some show or podcast talking about Jordan...he lives in his head rent free, when the last interview MJ talked about Thomas vs the last interview Thomas talked about MJ
Isiah is not asking Jordan for his hand in friendship. He's seeking clarification as to why Jordan still carries hatred in his heart for him. Isiah and the Pistons were Jordan's Bulls nemesis. Why allow the Pistons domination 35 years ago consume you.
@@Patton001 HaHaHa yeah right... with the tons of shit MJ has had on his plate since then... having a family, winning 6 championships, managing a multi-billion dollar empire, trying baseball, his father's murder, writing books, owning an NBA team, annnnnd... oh yeah, leading the Dream Team to Olympic gold in Barcelona. There's not much space for Isaiah to live in there rent-free or otherwise 😁
Isiah took dude under his wing in Chicago. Isiah Thomas chilled on this subject for 20 years after he got snubbed for the dream team. Zeke forgave them then he was called an asshole in a forever documentary Zeke has his brand to protect at this point. That is what he's doing.
Zeke has to understand that MJ hates him and absolutely meant it but he should take pride in the fact that MJ respects his game and holds him in high regards to rank him 2nd best pg behind magic. I love Zeke because I'm from Detroit but he has to let it go and leave it where it lay.
Isaiah Thomas Pistons owned MJ Bulls eliminating them 3 straight years from the playoffs and Jordan couldn't do anything about it except go to the NBA League Office and beg for rule changes to help him.
@Tank White. 🤣 LMFAO! Jordan couldn't do nothing and went to the league for rule changes lol!?!? The Bulls swept those same Piston 4-0 in 1991 and never looked back winning 3 straight championships, the fuck you talking about lol!?
I really don't think MJ "hates" Isaiah. I honestly don't think the man cares, certainly not to the level of hating him! History played out in Jordan's favor; there's no reason for him to care about how Isaiah or fans of the Pistons feel! I honestly believe it is just that simple!🤷🏾♂️
I love both these dudes That was Michael's way of complimenting him.. MJ never walked off with out a 🤝 handshake. MJ wasn't a part of a team that intentionally hard fouled every second play. These are facts, Zeke got my respect it was a different time. But has he ever apologized for the MJ rules? Has he said to MJ 'nationally' we shouldn't have walked off?? Maybe I missed it.
They wernt mj rules lol watch how they punished bird man he got it even worse. Thats just a media twist see thru the bullcrap. The whole Isaiah and pistons narrative is jordan using his status to gaslight them as he is a straight up narcissist
@Ajeet Choudhary Celtics didn't walk off without shaking hands purposely. Their head coach had them go to the locker room with 8 seconds left in the game for security reasons to avoid the Pistons' fans storming the court to celebrate.
Why should he apologize. The Pistons repeatedly brag about how they had the Jordan rules. He feel like he feel and he acknowledged that your great. He was telling the truth and they walked off on him win he finally beat him. He should hate him.
Why be jealous of Michael Jordan when you beat him more than he beat you. Isiah Thomas was Michael Jordan's nemesis. That's why Jordan expressed his hatred of Isiah. Isiah is just smoking him out till he confesses.
IT needs some deep soul searching and finally realize that accountability is kryptonite for him. Letting go is hard when you think you're owed something.
Isaiah need a therapist to help him move on from this! It's really said at this point because Isaiah comes across as a scorn girlfriend, just let it go already!!!
Agreed however it's more like Chicago was I.Ts GF and MJ stole her from him and he tried to sabotage the relationship but they went on to have a glorious marriage
He meant it and Isaiah deserved it. With that being said, basketball was WAR back then and that's just what it was. I grew up watching in the 80s and the 90s. Best basketball ever played, period.
The fact a 60 year old man would still be bothered by this is insane to me…. I can’t imagine letting someone else live rent free in my head for that long
Love Zeke's integrity here. Only apologize if there's a misunderstanding. Don't apologize if you mean it. And apologize just as loud as your mistakes. That's fairness.
What?! That dude sound like a clown brah. He crying over that shit but never shook hands after the games ( very disrespectful ) and was trying to end that man's career everytime they played from trying to injure him. But he wants an apology for that shit? TF kinda shit y'all niggas smoking 🤦🤦🤦🤡🤣
@@kazimcmorris6125 Why the fuck you lot always pushed what the Celtics did when MJ shook their hands on all of those time they lost to the Pistons in the playoffs...
@@kazimcmorris6125do u see Larry bird on podcasts complaining about Isaiah?smh like mj,bird dnt care about Isaiah,mj ain’t the one asking for no apology either so I dn5 knw why Mr bad boy Isaiah asking mj to apologize for smh
Isaiah got a point, if MJ called Isaiah a A-hole and hates him. MJ should’ve apologized , it’s takes a big man with good ethics to apologize for his mistakes. If he doesn’t his ego is getting in the way. Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real.
Yo you guys were literally trying to hurt him and then y’all walked off without shaking their hands. Zeke should’ve approached him at the 75th anniversary gathering and said “look man, we was in the wrong for that and I apologize”
Why Isiah was the GOAT. Strong will but mostly strong mind. Wasn’t born with the gift of glide, and the rules didn’t change to carve the way. He made his own. Didn’t ride in on a swoosh.
MJ didn’t call him an a*hole like that, he said he was ahole for walking off, which he was - even he admits it in not so many words. 😂 Isiah is deluded as usual
Michael Jordan told Dennis Rodman to beat up every other high scoring player but he feels that he's the exception to the rules. Jordan is a great player but his ego is as big as Texas.!!
I hope Jordan lets it ride. The more Isiah talks, the weaker Jordan gets. Isiah is educating an a generation about his era of basketball. they have been sold and told a "Larry, Magic and Michael" fairy tale.
The Bad Boy Pistons leader Isaiah crying now while they were playing WWE Wrestling on the hoop court on national TV. The Pistons tried brutalized and end MJ career Night after Night but you didn't see MJ crying, MJ kept playing with determination. It was ridiculous what the Bad Boy Pistons were doing. Like my grandmother used to say, "YOU MADE YOUR BED, NOW LAY IN IT."
Every time I see this, I can see more & more that Zeke is truly hurt!!! Nevertheless, MJ gives absolutely zero-fxxxks & will un-live before he apologizes to Zeke! Zeke, move on, let it go!!!
I agree with Zeke. Pick a side and stay there. But, the apology must take place where the infraction took place. In public. If not, keep it where it’s at.
