SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame should induct Michael Jordan every year. Then again, he might not be able to take it.
Overcome with emotion before an entertaining induction speech Friday night, a teary-eyed Jordan singled out former adversaries, including Isiah Thomas, Magic Johnson and George Gervin, along with ex-Knicks coaches Pat Riley and Jeff Van Gundy, for bringing out his competitive fires that became legendary.
He even went after old foils John Starks and Bulls GM Jerry Krause for what Jordan perceived as slights.
