Six-time NBA champion Michael Jordan is regarded as the GOAT by many. The NBA legend helped in popularizing the game throughout the world through his balling skills. He didn’t just retire from the game as a legend, but also as a trash-talking king. ‘The Last Dance’ documentary, which revolved around his life, showed various trash-talking stories of the Bulls legend.

Giving an example of something he said to Jordan to cook him up, he said, “He was too small. We all, we talked. He told me, he made me run around the game, I was out of shape. S**t like that ‘You out of shape man,’ ‘You’ll get tired chasing me.’ I told him, ‘Man, you too small’. He was like, ‘a** man, you lighting a** bro’,” Carmelo said.

“But you can’t win the argument with him. And you can’t argue with somebody who’s knowledgeable of everything. Like he knows s**t about you that you may might not even. He throwing at it to the arguments. He was like, ‘damn they got you’.”
