Michael Jordan is the GOAT for most NBA fans. His achievements at the highest level are hard to dispute, Jordan dominated the 1990s, leading the Chicago Bulls to six NBA championships. In his career, he also won MVP five times and was Finals MVP in all six of his title wins.
Off the court though, Michael Jordan did have moments that led to people not liking him. His sole motivation was to win and be the best, and that drove him to extreme lengths, punching his Chicago Bulls teammates and being unlikeable. Rapper Willie D called him a b*tch and in 2021, he explained why.
“The bottom line is, the dude is selfish,” Willie D said on Vlad TV. “If you look at the way he move, yeah he’s a great basketball player, you can’t take that from him. I’ve always said that he’s the greatest basketball player I’ve ever seen play. But as a human being, that’s what concerns me. I’m more concerned with what type of person a person is than what they do for a living.
“Jordan has a history of being an assh**e. I heard that he said that he said that, he thought that the documentary would make him look bad. This is what he said. These are his words, so I say to that, he don’t need the documentary to make him look bad. He can handle that all by himself, and he has handled that throughout his life.”
Those are strong words, and it’s hard to deny that Michael Jordan was all about winning at the cost of being a nice guy. But no one except for him reached the heights of success that he did, so it’s hard to dispute his methods. There will always be people that don’t like Michael Jordan, but that’s unlikely to ever faze him.
