Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley are two of the greatest players to ever grace the NBA, but they just don't get on. Barkley has had his say, explaining why the two legends have a celebrity feud, and why they can only respect one another's basketball ability, but not each other. The Chicago Bulls star was considered the greatest of all-time, but it seems Barkley thinks other wise. Yet again, this poses the question: Which star had the better career, and which was the better player?

Barkley himself recently said Jordan doesn't like me anymore." Strangely, the two were once friends, but now they no longer get along. Barkley explained:

"I think that Michael was upset by some of the things I said about the Bobcats. Which, No.1, they were true. I can't -- you know, I told you earlier, I'm going to be honest and I'm going to be fair. And the Bobcats -- first of all, he's doing a much better job. But a couple years ago -- I want say three years ago -- when they were vying for the worst record in NBA history, Michael had not done a good job. He took it personally."

He continued "I think that everybody got -- I wish it would be that simple, to be honest with you. I always love him like a brother, but I'm going do my job, first and foremost. Because I can't get on TV and be dishonest with people. They know when you're being dishonest and disingenuous. I'm going do my job, plain and simple."

It's clear the rivals were once friends, and one can wonder, can they repair the distance between them, or is it best for them to go their separate ways and forget one another.
