Ron Artest:"[Michael Jordan] was the only player who called me [after the brawl]."

tried to get Ron Artest out of the season suspension back in the day but David Stern shut it down

Metta World Peace: The last time I spoke to (Michael Jordan) was after the brawl. He was the only player who called me. He said, ‘Don’t worry, young fella, I’m gonna try to get you back.’ When he said that, I thought, ‘Wow, if MJ believes in me, I’ll be back.’ But not even Michael could fix things with David Stern. He was tough.”

Because Ben would whoop his ass if they went to fight, that's why.

Nobody wanted no smoke with guys like Ben Wallace, Nene, etc.
