Charles Barkley Reveals That Michael Jordan Still Isn’t Talking To Him

Michael-Jordan-Charles-Barkley

NBA legend Michael Jordan used to count TNT analyst Charles Barkley as one of his best friends. But all that changed a few years ago following comments Barkley made critiquing MJ’s decisions with his NBA franchise, the Charlotte Bobcats – currently known as the Charlotte Hornets – the friendship quickly dissipated.

In a recent interview, Sir Charles revealed that he and Jordan still aren’t friends and shed more light on the situation.

“I think that Michael was upset by some of the things I said about the Bobcats,” he told Bensinger. “Which, number one, they were true…I’m gonna be honest, and I’m gonna be fair.”

“He’s doing a much better job,” he said. “But a couple years ago, when [the Bobcats] were vying for the worst record in NBA history, Michael had not done a good job. And he took it personally.”

Charles Barkley was absolutely correct in his assessment, but as a friend, I’m sure Jordan felt betrayed
