My only problem about the " beef " is that now isiah is constantly asked questions about Michael jordan but when isiah answers he's constantly gets attacked with being called " obsessed " when he just answers the questions.
They don't like each other ; That's it so of course asking questions about each other is going to not have a positive response

Well if I was a basketball player on their level, and Isiah even though very talented, did to me what he did to Jordan all those years, I would hate his ass too!

[topsonskymendes-englishfor]

Isahia was a punk, a dirty player. MJ has his reasons for not liking him. I know I wouldn´t.

[jimjones]

I see why MJ refuses to play with Thomas on the first dream team

[richprokop]

IT JEALOUS THAT GOAT MJ GOT 6 RINGS IN CHICAGO... HIS HOMETOWN.

[karthikramani]

Thomas deserves the snub! Am glad he did not get to be part of the dream team

[tlawengmophosho]

i think michael hates isiah for his winning record against him. now you know Jordan uses hate as motivation

[LanierHale-oqdr]

Who cares? Isaiah doesn't burn as bright as Jordan's star---on any magnitude. Ask an astronomist.

Isiah Thomas is a great player and a diva.He was so jealous of MJ.Almost nobody want to play with him.Great player, bad personality.

Why is it no one complains about Boston walking off the court when Detroit beat them in the playoffs in 1988 but it is totley wrong when Detroit did it in 1991.

Hell Mike won't patch things up with his ex best friend Charles. No way he and Isiah will patch it up.

[eaglesavage]

It all truly goes back to when Bobby Knight coached Team USA MJ's rookie year. He called him the best player he ever seen. Knight had already coached Isiah at UI lol no one ever brings that up.

[AnthonyWilliams-xzdi]

To correct you. Zeke never said He hated Jordan

[rpesik]

Isiah Thomas deserved a place int The Dream Team.
Here is why:
1. People say MJ and many other players does not want Isiah Thomas in the team because of Bad Boys way of playing. This does not make sense. Yes Isiah was a Pistons and the captain, but the strategy came from Chuck Daly. And mostly wasn't Isiah who give the beatings. On the contrary, opposing players beat Isiah Thomas because he was the smaller guy. Why we never heard "I am not playing if Chuck Daly is coaching"? Lakers, Boston, and other teams also played hard physically. Remember when Kurt Rambis was tackled dangerously by the Boston Celtics? Magic Johnson and Karl Malone elbowed Isiah Thomas on the face.
2. Walk away before time ends. Boston did that. Lakers fans just went into the court before the clock ended.
3. Thomas had 2 championship, back to back that time. Jordan, had 1 only at that time.
4. Why put that college guy in while not including Isiah.

Whoever excluded Isiah Thomas, wasn't thinking for the best of the interest of US.

Disclaimer, I am a long time Lakers fans since Magic-Kareem, hated the Bad Boys for beating Lakers. Put MJ as (one of) the best player of all time.

Isiah Thomas always praised and admired MJ when he was a commentator

True story, though heard it 2nd hand from someone who played with Isaiah in HS. There was a home game against a rival, so things were very heated on the court and in the stands. Isaiah was the youngest brother of like 7 or 8 boys. He was always very well protected by his brothers. So during this game, fights broke out to point at least one of the brothers got directly involved in a fight and was ejected from the building. So things settle down, and they are ready to restart the game, except Isaiah tells Coach Pingatore he will not play unless his brother is allowed back into the building/gym. Lot of back and forth, but Isaiah got his way. Even with Indiana and Bob Knight, Isaiah initially had a lot of trouble with Knight until he eventually caved to him being in charge. But before that point, one of his brothers threatened to beat the crap out of Knight .. this one was a well documented incident.

This is how he has always rolled.- .. always well protected and almost always got his way .. until Jordan took it all away, and now Isaiah is on a mission. Jordan is no saint by any means, but Isaiah is far more deceitful and never truly fought his won battles. He always had a lot of "help".

Isaiah is still a top 5 PG ever ... right up there with Magic, Oscar, Stockton, Kidd, Nash, and Chris Paul. Only ones clearly ahead of Isaiah are Magic, Oscar, and maybe Nash once he went to Suns. So not going to deny his talent. But Jordan was far classier and fought his own battles.

Bottom line, despite the mutual grudge ... in the end, Jordan shook hand after every series the Bulls lost to Pistons. Isaiah, as usual, schemed behind the scenes to get others to do his dirty work ... he told everyone to walk off without shaking the Bulls hands. Only Dumars and Salley refused to listen to Isaiah.

Again, this is how Isaiah has always rolled .. no matter what he did or Jordan did. It is Isaiah;s nature.

This looks like a one way hate fest if you ask me...

[tonth]

Isaiah Thomas is the only one who still talks about Jordan. Jordan has moved on with his life he's not thinking about Isaiah Thomas. This so-called beef is being kept up by Isaiah who's talking to anybody who will listen about that s***. Jordan made some remarks in the Last Dance documentary which was about 3 years ago and he is still talking about remarks that Jordan made in the documentary. let it go b****.

[Dickey]

IT crossed the line about Larry Bird saying hes only good cause hes white 😂😂😂😂😂

[aaronstark]

“Hate is a strong word”

Didn’t stop Jordan from using it.
