WATCH: NBA Referee Once Believed Michael Jordan and Called a Foul After Being Intimidated by the 6X Champion
Unquestionably, one of the greatest athletes to ever compete in the NBA was Michael Jordan. When Jordan wore the Chicago Bulls uniform for most of his career, he had his finest years in the NBA. It was quite obvious that he was the best player of all time even back when he was still actively playing. He also has a spectacular playstyle, amazing agility, and overall skill, therefore it’s safe to say he’s an icon.
Michael Jordan exudes an extraordinary aura. And although he is a shady character who is rarely mentioned or seen these days, his aura was just as strong when he was playing.

Michael Jordan intimidates referee
Even though Jordan first asked for a foul call, the official soon agreed with him after reconsidering. The referee even said one of the most famous quotes. It is now unimaginable for the officials and players to work together on anything. Only what their eyes and minds tell them are they to follow.
And if a player attempts to persuade them for an extended period of time, they will only receive a technical. The officials appeared to overlook some opponent contact during Jordan’s third and last season in the NBA. Michael Jordan went and informed the referee that there had been contact. The official called the foul on the opposing player while admitting that he hadn’t seen the contact but had trusted Jordan.
