That time Michael Jordan took things personally and taught Vince Carter a lesson

Posted Sep 22, 2021
Michael Jordan, being the alpha dog, wanted to prove to fellow Tar Heel Vince Carter he still had plenty of basketball left in his tank, and he did just that in one regular-season game between the Toronto Raptors and Washington Wizards on December 16th in 2001. Remember that was a 39-year-old Jordan. Jordan taught him a lesson he would never forget. (Basketball Network)
