?Michael Jordan Is a Sensitive Guy?: Heated Charles Barkley and Kevin Durant Saga Compels Ex-NBA Star to Drag MJ Through the Mud and Fans Agree With Him

The beef that started in 2022 between the Phoenix Suns guard, Kevin Durant, and the Philadelphia 76ers legend, Charles Barkley recently got reignited as they exchanged some harsh words. This time, Barkley called him and this generation’s players “sensitive”. Durant replied to this by saying he would never respect the words uttered by the Sixers legend. Meanwhile, a former Chicago Bulls player who does analysis on live TV recently weighed in on the beef by bringing up the name of NBA icon Michael Jordan.

The player-turned-analyst Jay Williams recently dragged MJ’s name through the mud while giving his take on the recent beef. This, in turn, elicited the attention of fans and prompted them to reflect on the affair on social media.

Jay Williams indicates Charles Barkley’s remarks are baseless by taking the name of Michael Jordan

In the latest episode of ESPN’s?First Take,?Williams wanted to give his two cents about the recent beef between Charles Barkley and KD. He started by saying that he loves Chuckster and he was his guy. Subsequently, he added, “But when I hear him call our generation of players ?sensitive,? the only moment I?m going to have where I drop the mic is?Michael Jordan.”

The Bulls player continued, “The guy who was tougher than nails itself refuses to talk to Charles Barkley because of a criticism he had against him as it relates to being in ownership.” The 41-year-old finished by saying, “Maybe this is all players of all different generations who use criticism and sensitivities to motivate us to be better.”

Jordan and Barkley were best friends, but now they don’t share a good relationship. MJ stopped talking to the Chuckster after the 11x All-Star criticized the six-time champion over a decade ago. His Airness, who was considered to be one of the toughest personalities, got offended after receiving the criticism.
