Antoine Walker, Michael Jordan
It’s easy to find incidents of Michael Jordan‘s competitive mentality. But one of the more interesting ways to illustrate Jordan’s character was through the narrative that Antoine Walker told on the Dale & Keefe Show. Walker had the opportunity to spend time with Jordan as he prepared for his last two seasons with Washington Wizards over the summers while they were both working out in Chicago. However, the former Celtic made the error of arriving at the facility in a car that caused Jordan’s mentality to ignite.
No athlete on earth was safe from Michael Jordan’s intensity and passion, much as Antoine Walker experienced the same emotions when attempting to compete with Jordan off the court, and the story didn’t end well. According the Walker, he chose to exhibit his Ferrari while working out at the gym and Walker’s attitude annoyed Jordan, who was at the same gym. He resolved to out-flex him since he took it personally. MJ didn’t find Walker’s attempt to be the “alpha” admirable.
Michael Jordan is known for taking things personally!
Being one of the first basketball billionaires in the world, Michael Jordan is no ordinary man. Jordan made billions of dollars through his brand contract with Nike, and he also assisted Nike in edging out the competition. In 2019, Nike made $40 billion to Adidas’ $16 billion, with the Air Jordan brand among Nike’s top-selling merchandise. On the court, Jordan was regarded as one of the best players ever. He has six NBA championships under his belt, six Finals MVPs, five MVPs in the regular season, ten scoring titles, and several All-NBA and All-Star accolades.
Michael Jordan enjoys winning so much that it isn’t even funny. MJ’s vicious personality is part of the reason why he’s the GOAT because he constantly appears to get the better of other people, no matter what the circumstance. This is true of everything from his early days on the basketball court to his incredible competitiveness to things like a simple putt on a golf course. But it’s quite another to always be on with that kind of killer attitude, with MJ hunting for every opportunity to demean another player.
Antoine Walker narrates the incident between him and MJ.
Jordan is famous for having a massive and stunning collection of cars and for having a particular fondness for Ferraris. So, when three-time NBA All-Star and Chicago native Antoine Walker sought to flaunt his new Ferrari, MJ saw it as the ideal chance to tease him. Jordan continued to show up to the gym the next week in seven various Ferraris and he matched his jumpsuits with the cars as well. A breakthrough of epic proportions was achieved as nobody, not even Antoine Walker, can match what MJ did when he performed the ultimate flex. While Jordan’s NBA career before last retirement only lasted two years, Walker gained practical knowledge from him that will last a lifetime.
Jordan currently earns $145 million annually thanks to his purchase of the Charlotte Hornets. In comparison, Antoine Walker used up the entire $110 million allotted to him in his career, which makes it easier to see how successful Jordan’s brand grew. We all know that Michael Jordan enjoys defeating opponents, if there is one thing about him that is well known. And even if it wasn’t through outclassing them on the basketball court, MJ would still come up with inventive methods to completely screw someone over for his own entertainment.
