Making a legacy is not easy, however, maintaining it is even harder. Michael Jordan is one of the few players who has made a legacy and maintained it as well. Known as the best player of all time, he is one of the biggest forces responsible for the popularity of the sport. The way he played attracted millions to watch the sport and follow it. The docu-series ‘The Last Dance’ showed how Michael Jordan and his team went and won the NBA championships six times.
Even in those six times, they divided it into two three-peats. Michael Jordan had a great team as well. With the support of Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman alongside him, he had other important teammates as well. However, some believe that Jordan has never been a good teammate and has put his teammates under the bus more often than every time. A former NBA star also spoke about it recently where he supported Scottie Pippen and at the same time while bashed MJ.

According to his former teammate Scottie and later many others, this is exactly what MJ has done. According to Scottie, in the docu-series, MJ has only portrayed his greatness and overshadowed the hard work of the team. Scottie also alleges MJ put him in a bad light in the series. While this has created a rift and thus two side- MJ and Pippen side, supporters have been vocal from both of them. A former NBA star recently supported Scottie.
Rashad McCants was recently headed in an audio clip supporting Scottie Pippen and bashing Jordan. Rashad talked about how Jordan had actually manipulated Isaiah Thomas’ place in the dream team. He said that there are audio clips as well where Jordan was seen clearly, saying that he doesn’t want Isaiah on the team because he didn’t like him. Also, McCants said that Jordan “Threw your teammates under the bus….That was the first red flag.” Here, he was referring to the Scottie Pippen incident and also how he took the limelight for the Championships.
