Larsa Pippen was not happy with Michael Jordan's comments about her relationship with his son, Marcus. The NBA icon was recently asked about the relationship between the ex-wife of his former teammate Scottie and his son.

Larsa was married to Scottie Pippen for over 20 years but finalized their divorce in 2021. The couple have four children together and first separated in 2016 after 19 years of marriage. Jordan and Pippen won six NBA titles together at Chicago Bulls

Larsa angry with Jordan

On a recent Separation Anxiety episode, she had quite a few things to say about Jordan's comments, according to TMZ.

"I didn't think it was funny," she said. "There's nothing funny about it. I was kind of embarrassed."

The 49-year-old was surprised by Jordan's remark since she thought the Jordans were fine with her relationship with Marcus.

"I was like traumatized," she said. "I'm like, 'Oh, my God. What are we going to do?' People think I lied."

Marcus said his father was a little intoxicated when he made the comments, and his father even texted him after he answered the paparazzi.

"Obviously, we knew ahead of time because he texted and called me and wanted to make sure I didn't take anything the wrong way, but when the article came out, he texted me again and said he never said 'hell no,' that's not what the implication was," via ET.

Scottie calls Jordan a terrible player

Sports Brief earlier reported on Scottie saying Jordan was a terrible player when he joined the NBA in the 1986/87 season. Jordan averaged 37.1 points in that season.

"He was a horrible player. He was horrible to play with. He was all one-on-one, he's shooting bad shots, and all of a sudden we become a team and we start winning and everybody forgot who he was."

In the three seasons before, Jordan won the Rookie of the Year award in the 1984/85 season and led the NBA in scoring (37.1 PPG) in the 1986/87 campaign.
