Michael Jordan dominated the world of sports on his arrival to the scene. The was arguably one of the biggest icons in sports history and earned himself the tag line if being the best basketball in the world.

Michael Jordan was one of the best trash talkers in league history
Michael Jordan certainly had a well looked over reputation for his talent. But one attribute about his character that many have come forth against is apparently his tendency of being condescending towards his opponents. He has always pushed people to work past their limits and he even did that with Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman as well.
Some even consider Jordan the best trash talker. This reminds us of the time he called out Dikembe Mutombo during a game, said, “This one’s for you,” and drained a free throw with his eyes closed. There have been several instances of the player asserting complete verbal dominance getting into his opponents minds.
NBA’s Shortest player of all time has complains over MJ

“MJ always likes to f*** with me. Even till this day, he’ll put his hand up high for me to give him a high five and I’ll put out my hand down low, you come down to give me a low-five… He always called me lil fella or lil a**,” he said. Bogues played in the league for 14 season and mostly with the Hornets. He was never as good at Jordan offensively or defensively but his presence certainly was required on his teams as well.
