Gotta give Isiah some credit to say that directly to Draymond

Why should MJ apologize to Isiah for telling the truth about how he felt at the time?. Isiah needs to move on it's 2024

Having Jordan on Club Shay Shay would be even bigger than Katt Williams interview. Make it happen Shannon.

Mike minding his own business. And has the whole internet going crazy. 😅

Unc is trying to steer the pot! He completely ignored Gil’s point about MJ shaking hands when he lost to Isiah and wanting the same in return. That was what was disrespectful to MJ. Unc is overlooking that because he likes Isaiah.

Your the real GOAT when you hardly do interviews, hardly in the news but is always mentioned by everyone all the time 😂

Gil perspective spot on….talking about petty, men are petty, at this point Isiah go to sleep at night, sometimes you have to let it go…MJ standing on bidness like Gil said

Gill is correct about the feud with MJ and Isaiah but Sharp still looking for an excuse.😂

Gil right about KD sacrifice did hurt KD's legacy and cemented Draymond, Clay, and Steph

Which story is bigger? Isiah Thomas crying about MJ or public PED accusations about Lebron? Why haven't you touched that story yet?

Michael's issue is that when Detroit beat Chicago in 1989 and 1990, Jordan and the Bulls shook hands and congratulated them - regardless of the physical beating that Detroit put on them. But when the Bulls finally beat Detroit, they chose to walk off.

MJ doesn’t even think about Isiah! You’ll get an apology when hell freezes over

When Gilbert Explained that Isaih didn't shake Jordan's hand personally after Jordan shook his... I understood exactly what the beef was about. As a result, Isaih wasn't in the Dream Team.

Shannon got so much hate for Jordan

That was a fantastic interview, Thanks for the info,🏀🏀😎🤙

Thank you Gil for saying what it really is. Idc what others do to you GIVE ME THE RESPECT I GIVE YOU

Michael Jordan is not trying to talk to Isaiah Thomas

MJ said he's lost all respect for Isaiah, personally, after he ducked his way out of Chicago FINALLY overcoming their biggest obstacle. MJ shook their hands and Boston's every year since his rookie year, and, of all players, Isaiah handled it like a [Insert Too $hort sample].😂

Bro like Bron didn't leave Cleveland twice and Miami.

LeShannon mentions "the media" like hes not one of them 🤣

Why doesn't Steph get any hate for flying to NY during the off-season and begging KD to come to Golden State? He deserves just as much hate, it was a weak move on his part too

Shannon, why you mad bro? 😂

Thank you for saying it zeek!

Its about Having the best team but chemistry is a factor too

IMHO, Gil is spot on with his assessment on the friendship (Zeke and Mike) of why Jordan didn't like the fact that Zeke walked off. Great convo

Shannon "Shay-Shay" Sharpe,stop with the Jordan hatin' already😂😂😂

They wanted Jordan, and he wouldn't play with Thomas. This isn't rocket science - if the cost of getting MJ is not taking IT, everyone makes that deal. And Thomas, afaik, is the only person from that Pistons team that still complains about not being liked because he was on that Pistons team. They were heels and it won them a lot of games, but everything has a cost.

I hate how NO ONE SEEMS TO REMEMBER LEBRON LEAVING CLEVELAND TO GO TO MIAMI BEFORE KD LEFT FOR GSW

Shannon, it's called sportsmanship. You know all too well about that. If I beat you and you walk up to me and shake my hand, you're telling me congratulations. I was the better man today (nothing personal). When I lose and I walk past you after years of beating you, and you finally beat me, and I don't shake your hand, it's giving personal animosity.

Mike lives in Isaiah's head. 😂

I give Jordan credit for staying quiet though this

Great point Gil...

Idk why people are so confident that the Warriors would be done without KD. Like they beat the Cavs the previous year and were up 3-1. Why is it a stretch to assume they wouldn't beat them the following year?

I’m going to say this and I can believe this since the KD moved I always thought that the Warriors were always try to upgrade over Harrison Barnes because he had a historically bad finals and if they could upgrade that position to like an all NBA level dude they would win more rings, but they upgraded to another superstar so that he was always gonna be unbeatable

Ironic thing bout Unc. He hates on MJ but he wears Jordans. 😅

That sacrificing one legacy to boost 3 take from Gil was spot on

Isaiah Thomas full of poo… he been publicly talking crazy about Jordan for years and Jordan didn’t say much until The Last Dance

Gil was on point with the Warriors' legacy argument! 👏

The sports world needs MJ. Dude is the only sports personality that gets spoken about at least once a week (if not daily), without dropping an interview, tweet or post. I don't even know how this can be considered a beef. MJ said what he said and left the building. Dude has been living rent-free in Zeke's head since that Olympic snub. And let's be reasonable, MJ gave the USAB an ultimatum, they could have chosen to go with Zeke and MJ would have been cool with that, because he wasn't really keen on playing in the Olympics. The USAB and NBA didn't take no for an answer because he was the most marketable star they had. In the end, it all came down to business.

Going back to the no handshake thing with pistons I was a kid watching that series and game I remember something before in media bulls trash talked them and hometown or something so it was animosity over that

Shannon say they would've never beat the Cavs again. Bru, they had them down 3-1!! They should've never lost that one. I'm falling out of love with sports because of stuff like this. Smh😔. Can't trust it no more.

Well said Gil I paid u respect pay me my respect

+Nightcap Bulls first 3peat wasn't a super team

Let me just say. This interview was a very thoughtful and well paces conversation. I don't think it's rekindling any beef, but it's defining what was. IT energy says he is at peace ✌️

KD’s legacy was tainted???? He is now known as a champion instead of being ringless. Meanwhile Steph was being ridiculed until he won in 2022. All I know is Steph has won without KD, and not the other.

Mike has no fcks to give! Billionaire GOAT! The lion doesn’t concern himself with the opinions of the sheep!

Shannon is talking about when teams drafted and developed their players, traded for players/signed players in free agency when the former team didn’t want to resign them as apposed to players joining/creating super teams and demanding trades while still under contract

Great point Gil!

Shannon is missing the point of someone being a competitor and going to join such an over stacked team that has already won. It shows that player's mentality

See Gilbert Arenas explained why Jordan was upset the fact that he shook Isaiah hand every time they lost, but once Isaiah lost, he walked off the court without shaking Jordan hand and Shannon Sharp ignored it because he didn’t want to hear that because he’s a LeBron guy and he wants to blame Jordan every chance he can

Great take by BOTH UNK + GIL

I love how we recognize what doesn't exist anymore in terms of the game, when we compare era's but forget what did exist back then when we do the same.

Where is the segment about lebron and Balco?

But warriors won in 22 finals.

This legacy thing is starting to get annoying 😂 kd is one of the greatest to ever touch a damn ball

I don't get why him amd pippen are so mad about mj .... he said he was a ass... and selfish in those situations, and they really were ... mj never said isaiah is a asshole or pip is selfish , but in those situations they were

Isaiah needs to let that shit go, lol Jordan said what he said...🤷🏾‍♂️

Gilbert won't mention how Jordan and Pippen trashed the pistons calling them undeserving champions to the media before the series was complete.

90s Bulls were not a Superteam, lbj legacy is jumpshipping legacy

They done with the 80s & 90s then go back and reference it to make a point for their narrative 😂

The 90s never done being petty with their grudges. We need GOAT intervention show, Unc!

Jordan is not even think about that man

It's completely flawed thinking to say "Warriors weren't gonna beat the Cavs again." - They lost in game 7 by 4 points - Across the entire series GSW only lost by 4 points(703 - 699) - They lost their backup center to injury - Draymond was suspended for a game In addition, the 5 years before these finals(2015-16), we had already seen 2 teams lose in devastating fashion, then return to win in the following year. - 2011 Heat vs. Mavs (Lebron 'Frozen One') --> 2012 Heat vs. OKC - 2013 Spurs vs. Heat (Ray Allen buzzer beater) --> 2014 Spurs vs. Heat (Largest avg. margin of victory in Finals history) I am by no means saying Golden state would definitely win, but to say it is impossible is intellectually dishonest and a hypothesis passed off as fact to support these 2 narratives: 1. KD was not a reason the Warriors won 2 championships, he was THE reason. Despite the fact that the Warriors have now won before and after KD. 2. Lebron is so great because he would have had more championships otherwise. This is ultimately the narrative which Lebron pundits want to saturate in the public sphere. Lebron is good enough to be judged by what he has done, not by what he theoretically could have done. - Could Lebron have won more if KD hadn't gone to the Warriors? Possibly. - Could Jordan have won more if he hadn't played baseball? Possibly. - Could the Warriors have won if Draymond hadn't been suspended? Possibly. To say 'the Warriors definitely weren't winning' is a weak assumption not supported by historical evidence nor by the series data itself; ultimately designed to push narratives which are self-serving.

Definitely a powerful statement to make grown man style right to the source great conversation I agree with the dialogue Isiah on point draymond respect his opinion at least he didn’t say it after he left the podcast

Shannon hates KD!! He’s Lebron’s 3rd son

Without those rings. KD would be TMAC with longevity. Carmelo, but on better teams.

They all still had to show up and play. But that extra Sniper and a little Defense to.

Anyone notice how they didn't say that MJ had all these top 75 players or great teammates...just shows how special and great MJ was to win like he did with not as much talent as all these other players.

Rekindling? LOL! Zeke, as he's been doing for years now, is talking to himself. Jordan won't ever respond to him, and that's what burns him up.

Isiah did NOT rekindle the beef. Draymond rekindled it, with the question to Isiah! Isiah just answered Draymond's question. But expecting an apology from Jordan is delirious. Jordan, for whatever reason I won't get into, will NEVER EVER apologize.

All those teams were organically put together by owners and GMs Lebalco James started the players empowerment/entitlement movement followed by KD.

Thomas needs to get over it...MJ not even responding to him. Thomas /Pippen is having these one-sided beefs is hilarious...lol

Isiah was just jealous MJ took over his hometown

people forget about the The 2003-04 super team with the Lakers that included Gary Payton at point guard, Kobe Bryant at shooting guard, Devean George at small forward, Karl Malone at power forward and Shaquille O'Neal at center AND Phil Jackson as head coach. Why? Because they couldn win, and shaq and kobe were in their prime. That was the best super team ever assembled

Right before game 4 Gilbert.Before Chicago swept Detroit in 1991 Eastern Finals.Jordan stated the way the Pistons who those 2 Championships was a bad brand of basketball the style the Pistons played. That is why Isiah felt disrespected and didn't wanna congratulate or shake the Bull players hand

John Havilicek coming off of the bench is wild. I didn't know that. If more people looked at his stats, he'd be in the top ten argument.

*How can Isiah say that when they lost to the Bulls in the playoffs and didn't show Jordan or his teammates no respect an didn't shake their hands & Tech fouls never got called at all during the series the Pistons lost to the Bulls*

Unc, that laker year when kareem got traded (which the bucks wanted and not kareems decision) wasnt a super team. Magic was still a rookie and kareem even missed crucial games on that finals. Real fans arent mad when the team who won a championship was BUILT ORGANICALLY EITHER THRU DRAFT OR TRADED BY THE MANAGEMENT AND NOT ORCHESTRATED BY THE SUPERSTARS THEMSELVES TO JOIN EACH OTHER. That 2011 Heat was a superteam with a stacked bench players and the following year they got Ray Allen. Even NBA former and current NBA players said that what Lebron did was a weak move. What KD did was a residue on what lebron did. KD would have not done that if Lebron did not started that superteam. Real basketball fans praises a team who wins even if thats not the team they are rooting for...BECAUSE THAT TEAM NEVER CHEATED THE GAME. BOTH LEBRON AND KD RING CHASED...BASKETBALL HOF's SAID THIS. WHY THE 2007 CELTICS ISNT REALLY A SUPERTEAM? BECAUSE ALL OF THOSE 3 PLAYERS WHERE AT THEIR 30+s AGE WHEN THEY JOINED TOGETHER AND THEY ONLY WON ONCE. FUN FACT: Lebron never won a single championship without "ATLEAST" Two Superstar/Allstar on his team and yes a stacked role players of his choosing. #FACTS

Tiny Archibald was not on any Celtics team championship as I remember. SS says he was. I recall the guards being Ainge and DJ.

I've yet to see an interviewer directly ask Zeke: "Why do you think MJ hates you?", or "Why do you think MJ didn't want you on the Dream Team?" His response would be very telling..

Guys Ocho doesn’t watch basketball. Gil knows his hoops and understands todays game and the history. Salute Gil! 🔥🔥

Warriors might’ve lost to Houston too without KD

Draymond should've asked Isiah did u go in the locker room & congratulate the bulls since the protocol was to go in the locker room and congratulate them after the loss

Shannon is low key trying to downplay MJ to build LeBron’s pitiful GOAT case….he’s not slick! Jordan wasn’t the only one who didn’t want Zeke on that team, Even Magic Johnson didn’t want him on there

The warriors fans punching the air right now

It’s absurd for ‘zeke to even put that out there as far as MJ.

Isiah embarrassed himself when he didn't shake the Bulls's hands

ZEKE IS DEFINITELY TELLING THE #TRUTH! 💯

KD didn’t go there and ride their coattails, bro went and won Finals MVP.

Kevin McHale big upped, dapped up, and every other up you can give Isaiah Thomas on the court when the Pistons beat the Celtics to go to the Finals for the first time. No one walks off the court before the game is over, the Pistons did that to the Bulls...look these two moments up.

Isiah also remembered as the dude left off the Dream Team by Jordan

KD would of been viewed the same as Dame. Nah Unc!

Dude yall know the difference between super team and teams that are good. No one decided to go to a team with great players in free agency. Now a owner doing it is way different

Zeke is still mad his nephew and his own family loved Jordan more than him !!!!

Helped Kerr too as a coach!!!!

You & Gil are the wrong ones to talk about MJs issues.

They keep saying KD went to Golden State when actually Dremond Andre klay & Steph went to the hamptons to get KD to joining the warriors

Yall whole superteam argument solidifies the argument that competition was tough back in the day. There were more COMPLETE teams built then. As opposed to today where its usually a one or 2 man show.

Joe Dumars and John Sally congratulated Jordan after the game, so Arenas is correct, it had nothing to do with team protocol. It was personal.

I guess when Lebron moved to miami d-wade saved his legacy as well let that be known
