He did not hide his disappointment against Michael Jordan. The ex-basketball player Isiah Thomas, a Detroit Pistons legend, reissued ‘darts’ with the top Chicago Bulls idol.
Although a few days ago Thomas limited himself to questioning Jordan’s place as the best in history, elevating current figures such as LeBron James and Kevin Durant, this time the former Pistons doubled down on his bet and hinted at an alleged ‘double-sided’ MJ .
“He definitely treated me like a foolBecause we have seen each other later, and I never had that reaction from him, ”said the former player in dialogue with CBS Sports.
“He was always very nice to my family, and He even gave my son some slippers ”, complemented.
Thomas was surprised by the words of Jordan, who did not hide his eternal fury against the Pistons in the documentary The Last Dance, expressing that “he hated them and I still carry that hatred with me today.”
“I thought that competition we had on the field ended there, on the field. I have nothing against him and I admire him as a basketball player, “said the former‘ Badboys ’leader.
In relation to the same subject, Thomas also lowered his profile at the sporting level of the Bulls and Jordan himself. “When you put Michael and his team in the ’80s, they weren’t very successful.”
“They dominated the 90’s. But against those Lakers, those Celtics and those Pistons, they lost. It is that simple ”, he added.
Eventually Thomas crafted his top-5 and, predictably, the North Carolina native does not lead. “First Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, second Larry Bird, third Magic Johnson, fourth Jordan and fifth Julius Erving. None of them can adequately tell their story without the Detroit Pistons, “he concluded.
