Surprised noone made a thread about this but what was everyones though on Jordans HOF speech? I felt he kind of bought back old grudges and took shots at people...From what I hear from people that met him, they say hes an arrogant a**hole, I know people are thinking, he has the right to be as the best player to play the game, but IMO the speech could have been worded better, But thats just me.

For someone who is constantly being called the greatest ever, it doesn't surprise me that he would develop and ego off of that.

His HOF speech seemed to explain what it took for him to be that good...I mean great

If you havent heard, from most people that know Jordan personally, this was typical.  Can you really expect the man entitled the "greatest ever" to show a bit of humility and grace? Maybe not.  He went as far as to bringing Leroy Smith to the speech (the man who took his spot on his highschool bball team) to prove a point.  I for one liked the fact that Jordan displayed his arrogance; it was like Jordan Raw (no homo).  I dont think he was up for pretending to be something he's not up there, being himself like he has been all these years.  And Greatest Line of the speech: "Theirs no 'I' in team, but theirs an 'I' in Win....Classic Jordan
