You think MJ would've given Scott some slack as the only 2 baseball pro's on the Bulls......but MJ probably couldn't handle that Scott was a way better baseball player than him and a 1st round MLB pick....
I guess SB was used to the treatment as a former Husky:
“I just hope people don’t look at this movie the wrong way and think he’s a bad person, or a mean person,” Burrell says, “or he’s aggressive. He just tried to motivate guys so they prepare, just like coach [Jim] Calhoun.”
