Times Michael Jordan DISRESPECTED NBA Players.. The level of fear that he inspired in others was insane. It didn't matter. He wanted to come in and kill you. Now Michael Jordan and reggie go. These are the times that Michael Jordan disrespected NBA players and Jordan's beef with his own teammate. Steve Kerr got so violent their own coach had to get involved. It was 1995 and Steve Kerr was playing in his first practice game with Jordan. For some reason, coach Phil Jackson decided to have Jordan and Kerr guard each other. At this point, Jordan didn't know who Kerr was so he had no respect for him. Jordan started talking trash rough and Kerr up and surprisingly Kerr was talking trash right back. Now if you know Jordan, that's not gonna slide. So he decided to make this practice physical.
