All Ainge was doing was playing good defense on him. Jordan wants a foul called every time even if you're near him. Prima-donna.

A bitch move by Jordan with elbow, but Danny Ainge was equally a bitch by selling it so much.

Jordan has always been a dirty player and this is just one of the many incidents.

@kennygriff24 I disagree with your opinion about Jordan, but I have to say you have an awsome user name. Griffey is one of the best ball players to ever play the game and I'm not even a Mariners fan. Also, he is a class act (unlike Jordan IMHO). And since MLB is so much better than the NBA, I'd say our similarities outway our differences.

@kdleal I don't know how you can infer that Jordan thinks the game of basketball revolves around himself. That's a pretty difficult claim to make considering it is probably only backed up by things you've seen on TV or heard about from other people. Also, he's not a pussy. In this instance he did cop out and pretend like Ainge was instigator but this individual act does not make him a pussy. In fact, I consider him to be tougher than most superstars that played before him and most that play now.

@reno93535 he was holding his arm before the elbow lmao

Watch it in slow speed and pause it there before it goes to 1:07. You'll see the initial contact with Ainge pressing down on the should used in the elbow. Yea, MJ shouldn't elbowed him, but it wasn't totally unprovoked.

Plus, both players were playing, rough, and dirty the whole series, especially Ainge who was playing like a desperado.

Jordan was (and still is) under the impression that the game of basketball revolves around him personally. He is an arrogant prick who thinks he can get away with whatever he wants. This is just one of his many cheap shots. Then whenever the opposing player responded, he would become outraged and pretends that HE was the victim. What a pussy. It was almost comical to watch so many fans, commentators, and refferees line up to kiss his ass. I'm pleased that Ainge was not part of that line.

@at1212b he held on after the foul buddy. watch it in reg speed.
