Michael Jordan Gets Mocked By LeBron James’ Friend As His Brief NBC Broadcast Stint Ends

Michael Jordan has broken a lot of hearts after it was announced that the basketball legend will not be on NBC again. Jordan signed a deal with NBC for the previous season as a special contributor and this immediately got many raving, hoping to see more of the baller on-screen.

NBC did not first announce what exact plans they have with Jordan and what type of shows he will be on. It was only later revealed that Jordan’s special contribution would be a whole bunch of little segments from a huge interview, which was aired part after part throughout the campaign.

Nevertheless, it still delighted many fans who were excited to see Jordan on TV once more. CuffsTheLegend, who has been pro-LeBron James and therefore anti-Jordan for a long time now, could not help but poke fun at the situation, calling the whole thing a scam.

“Cigar Lungs and NBC really scammed us and had us thinking Mike was about to give us weekly basketball analysis and hoops talk on the couch… and they gave us one interview chopped into 17 mini pieces LMAOOO,” CuffsTheLegend tweeted.

Not just CuffsTheLegend, but numerous others too criticized both NBC and Michael Jordan of cheating their fans. It seems like most expected Jordan to be a special analyst with the network and delight fans with his unique takes on the game.

The network is yet to come out with a proper response and an explanation as to why things with Jordan went south. From here, it sounds like Jordan was the one to pull the plug and refuse to extend his deal with the franchise.
