Apparently, There Was A Chicago Bulls Player Who 'didn't Like' Michael Jordan
JAKARTA - Michael Jordan achieved so much success with the Chicago Bulls, but had to make some of his teammates uncomfortable.
This was revealed in the documentary film The Last Dance. As it turned out, not all of Jordan's former teammates were willing to accept his tactics.
Robert Parish pointed directly at Jordan, when he revealed in an interview with ESPN in 2012.
"I told him, 'I'm not hooked on you like these guys, I also have some (NBA champion) rings'," said Parish. Launching Marca, Friday, May 22.
"At that time he said to me 'I'm going to kick your ass'.
"I walked closer and said 'no, you really wouldn't'.
"After that he didn't bother me."
Robert Parish played one season in Chicago, in 1996-1997, after being released by the Charlotte Hornets. Playing his final NBA season with Jordan entering his second post-retirement season, Parish won his fifth NBA title at the age of 43.
He is the third oldest player to play in every NBA game, behind Providence Steamrollers 'Nat Hickey and Dallas Mavericks' Kevin Willis. On August 25, 1997, Parish decided to retire.
