Being ardent followers of the game, hip-hop icons never miss a chance to give their two cents on the NBA and the hot topics that revolve around the league. Recently, hip-hop superstar Lil Wayne turned heads by choosing LeBron James over Michael Jordan, and Kobe Bryant in a GOAT debate. Now, another famous rapper has revealed how much he admires the legendary Michael Jordan and the former Bulls coach Phil Jackson. While doing so, however, the rapper got a reality check about his favorite coach, Phil Jackson.

The revelation about MJ’s former coach came as a shocker for the rapper. Later, however, he would go on to let out a hilarious take on the Houston Rockets‘ recent major move.

Boosie Badazz, however, was shocked to hear one of Phil Jackson’s past remarks. As the host puts it, Phil Jackson had said he stopped watching NBA games, ever since the league and some of its players extended their solidarity towards the BLM movement. The host iterated that Jackson stopped watching NBA games after players wore?“justice and stuff like that,”?on the back of their jerseys.?“Damn! not my favorite coach,” said Boosie Badazz in sheer disbelief.?“You disappointed right now? Your favorite coach ever,”?the host asked Boosie. Boosie responded with a nod.

When Ime Udoka came to the conversation, Boosie at first asked the interviewer to refresh his memory. He remarked that Udoka was the guy whom the Celtics sacked. “Oh Nia Long. I don’t know about Houston, they got lotta pu*** out there. He might be in the wrong city,”?Boosie said.?“They got some pu*** out there. I don’t know he should have went to Minnesota or somewhere. He went to H-town. He didn’t even go to Utah or some sh**.”
