According to multiple insiders, Jordan is not returning to television to relive his six championships, nor to prop up the endless GOAT debate that’s fueled ESPN, YouTube debates, and barbershops for two decades. Instead, Jordan is coming back to dismantle the toxic narrative surrounding his name.
“Mike thinks the game has evolved,” one longtime associate shared under condition of anonymity. “But his fans haven’t. And he sees that as a problem. A real problem.”
“He’s said it before in private,” said the NBC source. “That the narrative of ‘6–0’ has become toxic. It ignores his losses. It ignores the teams that helped him get there. And worst of all, it punishes the greatness of today just because it’s different.”
Jordan’s new NBC role, while still being finalized, will reportedly include long-form sit-down interviews with current stars, feature breakdowns of past vs. present playstyles, and a multi-part special examining how basketball greatness has evolved since the 1990s.
“This isn’t about just showing old clips,” another insider said. “This is Mike trying to reframe the conversation. He’s coming to set the record straight.”

imagine Mike come out with some super hate
or the gambling/parlays bit![]()
Jordan and Jokic interviewNeed that Jordan/Ant interview.
Gilbert Arenas was saying Jordan isn't a hater and loves the new guys. He said a lot of talking heads are gonna be scrambling when they see how much love he shows LeBron.
That's not what his stans think.He doesn't have a reason to hate. They literally are putting money in his pockets keeping his brand alive with the NBA. This man might be a billionaire 10 times by the time he dies.
