Since their days on the court, things have changed between Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan. They are no longer cool like that.

Barkley opened up about why he is not friends with Jordan anymore on “The Seth Davis Show,” according to sportingnews.com.

“He was offended by some things I said about him on television,” Barkley said. “I said Michael wasn’t doing a good job — he’s doing a great job now, (the Hornets have) gotten better,” he said.

He added, “they’ve made some great signings — but they weren’t doing good and I thought he didn’t have good people around him.”

He continued with, “and I said that, because I was asked that question. Your job is to be an analyst. It’s not to protect your friends … no, he’s not feeling that.”

Back in 2012, Barkley discussed how Jordan reacted to him criticizing his abilities as a general manager. He didn’t take the news too well.

“I thought my name was SOB and MF,” Barkley told USA Today Sports. “Dude I can’t get on the radio and tell people you’re doing a good job … Michael is as cheap as they come.”
