OJ Mayo wants the full video of his game against Michael Jordan
OJ Mayo has actually been a good sport about the story of him getting schooled by Michael Jordan going viral this week.
To recap, MJ did an interview that corresponded with the release of NBA2K14 on Tuesday in which he shared a story about how he schooled Mayo when Mayo was a cocky high schooler at his basketball camp in 2006. Jordan recalled the events from that night at his camp almost exactly as it played out. MJ boasted that he taught Mayo a lesson that night.
“If I could ever share you that film … ask him what happened,” Jordan said.
Well ask and you shall receive, MJ.
Larry Brown Sports was able to obtain the video of Jordan schooling OJ that night, and it played out exactly how Jordan described it. But there is one person who still isn’t satisfied with the video. Mayo.
Mayo responded to our tweet that we had video from the night by asking why we only showed Jordan’s offensive clips.
@Danny_Vertuno @Jay_DeHaan @KidColee @AEhioba whyd you just show his offensive clips?!?!!

Mayo then defended himself for going after Jordan at the camp by using Russell Westbrook’s line of “why not?”

Mayo is so desperate to prove himself, he said he had $10K to pay if someone could deliver the full tape.

Alright, OJ, we’re working on getting the full tape. And we’re going to hold you to that $10K, too.
And just to clarify: MJ schooled Mayo in a 5-on-5 pickup game setting, not a game of 1-on-1. But Jordan matched up with Mayo 1-on-1 throughout the game, so I suppose the point is the same.
Here’s the full story including Mayo’s side of what happened.
