During the show, the host asked Barkley if he would have been able to play with Jordan on the same team if he had to. (Not including the time they played on the Dream Team together). To this, Barkley replied,
“You know he has selective prosecution over there, right? He knows who to pick on.”
Then Barkley talked about how even Jordan knew his limits.
“There are certain guys you can’t treat like that. Like you have to know what guys you can treat badly and they’re gonna accept it. Screaming at guys all the time, punching guys, come on man, there are certain guys that will whoop the hell out of you if you try doing that. He has selective prosecution. I mean, Scott Burrell and Steve Kerr. I mean, come on, man.”
