Michael Jordan Wouldn't be Loved if Social Media Showed His Bad Side while He Played (Part 7)

Part 8: • D.L. Hughley: Muhammad...
Part 6: • DL Hughley on Biracial...
Part 1: • DL Hughley: The Worst ...
--------
In this clip, D.L. Hughley shared his thoughts on Michael Jordan and "The Last Dance" documentary, which D.L. said he's not sure Jordan's reputation will survive. He went on to explain why he thinks both Kobe and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar are both better than Jordan, and D.L. stated that LeBron is the most principled athlete of the modern era. To hear more, including D.L.'s thoughts on Muhammad Ali being accepted by the world when he was sick and weak, hit the above clip.

The difference is white people don't tear down Wayne Gretsky, Joe Namath, Michael Phelps, Jack Nicklaus and other giants in their sports who wanted to win was much as Michael did. Black super athletes are under the microscope and dissected in ways that their white counterparts aren't. I would never put any person on a pedestal no matter what their talents are, but I can recognize their extraordinary contributions to the industry they represent. I wish Michael was more socially conscious and culturally aware. However I lived in Chicago from 1990 until the beginning of 2001. I saw up close and in person what MJ went through especially right after his father died. I work in the entertainment industry and I don't know that many athletes or entertainers could have handled the personal/professional pressure cooker he was in. Add to that the BS his sister pulled-- it's a miracle he didn't lose his mind. There is no question MJ GLOBALIZED the NBA in a way that made it a mega-profitable powerhouse. As a fan I'm grateful I had a chance to witness the phenomenon that is MJ. This is coming a rabid LeBron James fan, but I can give credit when and where credit is due.

Truth. I remember in the early 2000s a story came out that Jordan was paying off a woman to keep quiet about their affair. He was paid her like $250K. Then she tried to extort him, demanding $5 million to keep the secret. Jordan came out instead and admitted to it. This was like 2002, so it was kind of mentioned then glossed over. Another story, porn star Kylie Ireland said she had met Jordan at a hotel. She asked her boyfriend if she could do Jordan as he was obviously a huge celebrity and a once-in-a-lifetime hookup. The boyfriend (probably a porn star himself) said sure go ahead with it. Plus many other stories that you would have only heard about if you read certain magazines you find in the grocery store, or stayed up for Entertainment tonight at 11:30pm. That's the way it was for all male celebrities, and that's why the older ones (like Cuba Gooding, Jr.) are catching cases.

[@thedmo8437]

Lot to unpack in this segment! Let's start with Ali. I grew up in a white flight suburb of Chicago, and Muhammad Ali was beloved by my generation (late boomers). My dad, a WWII vet, loved him. Ali was the most popular athlete and most famous person in the world for a long time. (Ali, Jordan, and Walter Payton remain my all-time favorite athletes.) Hughley's contention that Ali wasn't accepted until he got sick seems to me a tremendous overstatement. Craig Hodges' virtual absence from the Last Dance saddened me. He was more key to the first two championships than some of the role players featured in the documentary. He also had an effect on the game itself, although The Last Dance (like the 30 for 30 featuring NY v IND), reminded me how much more entertaining the game was before the 3pt shot became dominant. Back when Jordan played, I was very disappointed when he declined to assist NC Senate candidate Harvey Gantt at all, neither in 1990, nor in 1996. It was a personal disappointment: I'd worked on the 1983 Southern Crusade, a very successful black voter registration campaign that, while it did not show the results we'd hoped for in 1984, was crucial in the election of black candidates at all levels over the next ten years. The photo Dolores Jordan asked her son to pose for may very well have unseated Jesse Helms. We could be living in a different world. Jordan's comment about shoe buyers stung. But there are few great athletes, artists, writers, musicians or filmmakers whose personal lives can match their achievements. The works live on (even in sports: in the record books, and in the modern era with ever-improving preservation of the great moments of sports); the persons do not. I have chosen, with a few egregious exceptions, to separate the art from the artist. That's contrary to cancel culture, but I think great art will outlast cancel culture, just as it survived its critics and time itself. And, although he seemed super-human at the time, Mike is human, he has the right to live his own life. I'll always love him for the joy his indomitable will to win gave me, my friends, my erstwhile city. When you do find an athlete or artist whose life can stand with or even above their achievements, it is a rare and wonderful thing. In the always personal argument about the NBA GOAT, in my heart and mind only two players vie with Michael Jordan: Kareem Abdul Jabbar & Bill Russell. I'm not talking favorite (that would be MJ, though I love the other two), it's about the GOAT. Kareem has a strong case that Hughley articulates as well as anyone, but so does Russell. If it's all about rings, crown Russell, with 11. He also had to win them face to face against the most dominant player of his era, Wilt Chamberlain (who is not on my short list because...Russell). While I don't agree with everything DL says, he's a thoughtful and engaging interview. Thanks.

[@Bellthorian]

I grew up in Maryland with two progressive parents but my Grandparents were life long Southerners living in North Carolina since before the early 1900's. Needless to say when we visited there was a certain comfortability with the N-word in my Grandparents house. My Grandmother was a hard core Republican and thought Jessie Helms could walk on water. I remember when Harvey Gantt was running for office. I was visiting on leave from the military. I would ask my Grandmother if she was voting for Harvey....I can't repeat what she said but I would counter that we were in the privacy of her home and she could admit she was voting for Harvey and I wouldn't tell anyone and she would really flip out. My dad would ask me why I loved to wind her up so much. All I could say was I like using her racism against her and tormenting her in the process. I thought it was hilarious.

Honestly I have and still remain firm on my stance toward MJ. One of the greatest ever but a horrible person. All those years kids in inner cities were murdered behind his shoes that negro never said a word. You never saw him give any of his time for anything or anyone charitably. I use to think Kobe was the same way until I saw countless videos of him and his children, showing up to speak to other pro athletes, supporting women's basketball and laughing with other ball players. Right now MJ is trying to save his legacy by all of the sudden getting involved with the black lives matter movement when really it boils down to preserving his sneaker sales. MJ never stood for a damn thing and no one else. He doesn't even appear to be a good friend to his adult children. You never see him with his kids or hanging out with his sons. The proof is in a man's actions.

Imagine a female bossing other females around acting like a straight up B because she thinks she's better then other females. I'm pretty sure most men won't like that female and most people won't like that female, same as Jordan. Men are supposed to put are bias to the back( meaning the bias towards Michael Jordan because he is a great basketball player and wealthy, give me a break. We see where the wealthy privileged and Powerful got us in the world today right.....okay then) and understand right is right and wrong is wrong and teach our young men/boys and females how to act and treat someone, instead of all this chaos we have today with people purposely disrespecting others thinking they are tough or they are right because they're passionate or because they may do something better than someone else but when it comes to being an actual human being, there probably the worst on the Earth. It's time for us real men that are top firm but also wise and logical to show people how things really should be done instead of all these narcissistic emotional lustful never contempt with anything wanting it all type of people running things showing people how they think the world should be ran. Too many of these Michael Jordan Donald Trump type of mindsets out here with men acting like females not understanding how to treat people, thinking their way is the right way because in there psychotic conceited Minds they are the top of the food chain and everyone else shouldn't bow on their knees to them. Plus in my opinion Scottie Pippen made those teams stick Like Glue together, not Michael Jordan. It wasn't until Scottie Pippen matured into the player he became giving those Bulls team the opportunity to mature and become a team. Michael Jordan's way wasn't working, he could only bring them so far because he wanted all the shine without giving anybody else an opportunity. It was not until Phil Jackson pretty much forced Michael Jordan to allow Scottie Pippen to grow and the team took off. Perfect example when Scottie Pippen had that migraine game 7 against the Pistons, the Bulls got smoked. Michael Jordan couldn't bring that team together but as soon as Scottie Pippen was completely healthy the next season they took off and Scottie Pippen was pretty much closing out the games. Of course Michael Jordan got the last shots to win the game but Scottie Pippen was doing the work to take out those teams, especially against the Pistons and Lakers that first year they won that championship. Pippin should have gotten Finals MVP when they beat the Lakers but even though the NBA is a basketball game it's still nothing but politics and they had to give Michael Jordan all the glory because he was the face of the NBA. A blind man could have seen that if you are old enough to remember those times. Now I broke down what a man is and how Michael Jordan over glossed his so-called right hand man for people could view him like some God. He was nothing but a flawed man(like all of us)that was extra competitive with some type of mental illness( because he doesn't know how to let things go and forgive, usually that is somebody with bipolar) and a psycho mindset.

Trust me being Black,African & Muslim has to be the hardest thing ever living in the west😢

Aww

Lol stop complaining !!!

[@joshuainadagbo4771]

Jordan did what he wanted and he did things in silence folks forget he gave spike money to finish Malcolm x movie

[@kondwanimande7567]

But who told him to do that, bill cosby.

[@joshuainadagbo4771]

Not true... spike called him personally and asked him and made it competitive told him how much magic contributed and mike contributed more

[@kondwanimande7567]

@@joshuainadagbo4771 nah bra it was cosby that pushed him jordan, magic and other celebrities at that time to contribute, cause cosby was always outspoken.

[@livelaughlove2366]

Kareem was also 7ft , didn't dribble around the court, didn't shoot jumpers and 3pointers , just stayed in the paint , I'm saying it's more impressive for a guard like Jordan to accomplish what he did without being the tallest and scoring under the bucket every time down court ..that's just my take.

[@allaboutthemurzic]

Kareem has the unblockable shot though

[@allaboutthemurzic]

And he’s more accomplished Jordan just got the media machine

[@HashbrownGokusan]

They tricked us making it seem like they’ve always accepted Ali Now I see as a younger black male the bull.

[@triandiscrim558]

Just a side note, the majority of whites hated MLK, and used many brutal tactics aganist him. They began celebrating him decades after he was killed. Like DL stated they celebrate you when you're no longer a threat.

[@CSUnger]

No one celebrates a threat. Why should they?

The bulls wouldn't have as many rings if not for Jordan's *"BAD SIDE"*

[@mikekirkland2487]

Facts bro! Teams got the best players to play with the team's best/player. MJ brought out the best in his teammates! He demanded greatness from them.

[@marcmason165]

Nah.. he jus got rings when everyone got old... Y'all really overrating the 90's.. not as good as people think

[@bariimuzik]

Why the bulls don’t get the credit Jordan didn’t do it alone

[@shawnjones1994]

They woulda had 8

[@shawnjones1994]

They would of had 8 instead of 6

The DL in the past was either holding back and pretending, because this DL today is incredibly intelligent and smart.

@@deborahcannon2077 No! To the contrary, I'm delighted to see DL intelligent creative skills at work, I have always enjoyed his comedic performance, but hearing him articulate his worldly political wisdom truly have caught me my surprise, this is a side of DL I just didn't realize, but I love it.
