Can’t take away from how talented he was, (I personally think he was better than Kobe or Lebron), I’m just not sure about him as a person. Some of the things, I’ve read since the documentary has come out, don’t paint him in a very good light.

I think he was kind of a bully the way he pressed his teammates, but in the end turned out fine. They almost all like and respect him now. He was just consumed with winning.

First off, degenerate gamblers are people that can't afford to gamble and lose it all and destroy their lives. The guy is worth something like 1.5 billion or whatever. Also, you have always stated that you love adulterers. What's the prob now?

I personally don’t know. Just stories passed around on the boards. He played us like a bad fiddle,

Like we ever had a chance with him. We were going to get a NC kid who was a UNC fan from Dean Smith?

Lot of folks thought we had no chance with CJ Spiller, but we got him. I know, football, basketball, two different sports, two different eras, but anything can happen. I like to think we have a chance with any of these guys we recruit. At that time, there were people that thought we had a chance with Jordan.

Jordan was an amazing player but a pretty crappy person.

It’s funny that he was concerned that this documentary would cause people to view him poorly. Those of us who were big basketball fans in the 90s already knew that. But I suppose some people watching the documentary who only knew him as the McDonald’s, Gatorade, and Space Jam guy might be surprised.

slightly more nice when he was younger. I just assumed he was always an a--hole. Looks like it developed over time. and honestly, it seemed to come to him naturally. he was that good.

No he isn't. It is clear he is calling out Jordan and the so-called documentary as inaccurate.

It's not as if Horace is the only one making these or similar comments.
