Michael Jordan was not a big fan of Bill Cartwright when he was aquired as part of a trade to the Chicago Bulls. Jordan made fun of Bill and called him Medical Bill because of his foot problems. Bill had small shoulders and a narrow frame.  Bill was a smart, rock-solid defender who could shut down Patrick Ewing and other big men. One time at practice we ran a drill in practice that ended up pitting 6'6" Michael Jordan against 7'1" Bill Cartwright. Michael was determined to dunk over Bill. Bill was equally determined to not let it happen. So they collided in midair and everyone held their breath while Bill slowly eased Michael to the floor. After that, Michael changed his mind about Bill Cartwright.
