Detroit Pistons legend Isiah Thomas has challenged Michael Jordan to appear on the "ALL THE SMOKE" podcast to address their longstanding feud.

Thomas and Jordan's feud dates back to their NBA days when the Pistons beat the Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals in 1989 and 1990.

Jordan had referred to Thomas as an "a**hole" during Netflix's "The Last Dance" documentary and suggested that the Pistons always tried to "hit Jordan out of games."

Thomas believes that his Pistons were the most misunderstood team of all time and wants Jordan to apologize for his comments.

During a recent episode of the "ALL THE SMOKE" podcast, Thomas named Jordan as the one person he would want to make an appearance on the show.

[{"selector":"#anim-0020549c-afa0-4058-936d-739c8ee3e3b1 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a3d5a20b-051e-410a-a888-479e2819620d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-9bdae934-9906-4577-a062-fb3fd152023f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 182.02835%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Thomas believes that as Black men, it is their responsibility to help each other and that Jordan needs to come on the show and answer some tough questions.

Thomas wants to have a real talk with Jordan and clear the air on their longstanding feud, which has lasted for decades.

The "ALL THE SMOKE" podcast has been known to tackle controversial topics and bring on guests who are willing to have frank discussions.

[{"selector":"#anim-7e907b9d-e94d-4e61-8920-33ff42091ae1 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(0%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-03bf7491-08db-4f41-b173-7fcd2db69ea4","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f4e482a2-6d77-49ae-8785-2b1bdce71cc1","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 168.65572%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

It remains to be seen whether Jordan will accept Thomas' challenge and appear on the show, but it would certainly make for a fascinating episode if he does.
