Reggie Miller claimed Michael Jordan was the only opponent he never trash-talked

MJ surely does not have the best of memories when it comes to Miller. The same can be said about Miller, albeit in a slightly different fashion. A regular trash-talker, Miller has revealed that he never talked trash to MJ during games.

“He might have been the one player I didn’t talk to. Coz he might be the one player who could really embarrass you. He could come right back at you. He is cut from the same mold as Magic Johnson, and when I say that, and Larry Bird. Win by any means necessary,” Miller revealed.

Therefore, he thought it was better to not talk to Jordan as he was a player who could easily embarrass him. The Pacers legend talked about Jordan’s famous winning mentality, claiming that he could only remember Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, who like MJ, wanted to win ‘by’ any means necessary.

That, however, did not translate to a desire to play alongside MJ, perhaps owing to the kind of rivalry they shared. “And if Michael Jordan ever would have called me and tried to sway me to come to Chicago, I would have told him to go f–k himself! ‘I’ll be coming to see you on I-65 or whatever that highway is there. I’ll be down to see you,’ ” Miller claimed of his playing days back in 2021, according to
