If you've watched The Last Dance, then you know that the series focuses just as much on Michael Jordan's basketball career as it does his relationships - both on and off the court - with his teammates. ESPN's 10-part sports documentary revolves around the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls season (which is considered the peak of Mj's career), and some of Michael's former teammates are definitely not happy with how they were portrayed, including Horace Grant, Bill Cartwright, Craig Hodges, Ron Harper, and even Scottie Pippen.

“I would say [the documentary was] entertaining, but we know, who was there as teammates, that about 90% of it [was bullshit] in terms of the realness of it,” Grant said. “It wasn’t real — because a lot of things [Jordan] said to some of his teammates, that his teammates went back at him. But all of that was kind of edited out of the documentary,...
