According to Iverson, Michael Jordan is still not over that moment. During an interview with Shannon Sharpe, Allen Iverson narrated an interesting story.

“I went to a Charlotte Hornets game, and he had me come in, and me and him just sitting back and drinking and reminiscing or whatever, and I was like, ‘Man, I love you, man.’ And he was like, ‘You don’t love me, you lil b****. You wouldn’t have crossed me up like that if you did’,” said Allen Iverson.
