“A**hole” Isiah Thomas Exposes Michael Jordan’s Lies; Caught Red-Handed With 32 Year Old Stinging Truth

Isiah Thomas delivered a bombshell on ‘The Draymond Green Show’ recently. It was about his opinions on Michael Jordan’s contentious omission from the 1992 Olympic “Dream Team.” A long-standing schism between the two basketball legends was revealed by Thomas’s comments. The information presents a sharp contrast to Jordan’s story, which was emphasized by his appearance in the documentary series ‘The Last Dance’, in which he discussed the process of choosing the Dream Team.

Speaking on ‘The Draymond Green Show’, Isiah Thomas discussed the fallout from the Dream Team unveiling and Michael Jordan’s later account of what happened. Thomas voiced his disappointment with Jordan’s alleged dishonesty. He expressed, “I am pushing back now, but it really was nothing to push on at that time because I didn’t make the team. Rodman didn’t make the team. Rodman was a three-time defensive player of the Year. Joe Dumars didn’t make the team. Joe Dumars was you know ’89 NBA finals MVP. I was ’90 finals. We are the only backcourt that’s ever been back-to-back NBA finals MVPs.”

“This dude got on international television and called me a**hole, somebody who’s been really good to him. … If you didn’t mean it, say it publicly. If you meant it, I understand. I’m good with that.”

During those days, there were speculations that ‘MJ’ said that he would only participate if Thomas was left off the roster. But it never crossed his mind that Jordan could have been involved in his exclusion. Jordan had maintained his claim that he never explicitly asked for Thomas to be eliminated from the team.

Now Thomas’s current issue with Jordan stems from ‘The Last Dance’ documentary. From Thomas’ perspective, he thought he was on good terms with Jordan; that was until he watched the series.

Thomas and Jordan have a long-standing rivalry that dates back to their competitive days as players, which is highlighted by Thomas’s comments. Sincere remarks like this from Thomas serve as a sharp reminder of the ongoing hostilities and unsolved problems that have existed between the two basketball giants.

What did Michael Jordan say about Thomas?

The continuing discussion around the legendary basketball squad has become even more complicated with his claim that Jordan distorted the facts behind the Dream squad selection. Further, his former teammate Scottie Pippen was a very vocal critic of Thomas and once even described him as ‘horrible’.

Now, Jordan and Thomas have been at odds for decades, but their feud has flared again with Isiah Thomas’s latest disclosure about Michael Jordan’s alleged dishonesty. Thomas wondered why Jordan made it look like he didn’t have a problem with him, while his comments in the documentary were contrasting. But what exactly did Jordan say in the documentary that got Thomas all riled up? “The reaction of the public has kind of changed his perspective… You can show me anything you want, there’s no way you can convince me he wasn’t an a**hole,” ‘MJ’ stated.

Thomas’s open comments expose a controversial period through ‘Draymond Green Show – Isiah Thomas’ in basketball history and cast doubt on Jordan’s tale about the Dream Team selection process. Thomas’s viewpoint adds an intriguing level of nuance to the current discussion around one of the most renowned teams in sports history as the argument rages on. What do you think?
