Rasheed Wallace spoke on his ‘Sheed X Tyler’ show about Michael Jordan . He noted that while Jordan had lost the signature athleticism by the time he was with the Wizards , his veteran wisdom and ability to defend made him a better player than he was on the Bulls .
“Phenomenal player then, but I think he was a little more dangerous when he was with the Wizards. He didn’t have the athleticism that we were used to seeing MJ have… His angles were a little bit more sharp, he wasn’t going to move but he was a strong two-guard, he wasn’t just going to move up lightly. His shot became more dangerous, he became more solid as that veteran player when his years in Washington (ended).”

This is certainly a hot take from Rasheed Wallace. Michael Jordan’s years with the Bulls are looked at with a great deal of reverence. Many consider his stint with the Bulls to be what put him at the top of the mountain as the greatest player in NBA history. Whereas his stint with the Wizards is actually looked at quite poorly…
