The NBA of the 90's was so watered down with mediocre teams, I guarantee you owners didn't want to see their cash cow sitting on the bench in foul trouble. Nor did they want to see him shooting 4-17 from the field with only 4 foul shot attempts.
Remember it took the greatest player "ever" 7 years to play on a championship team in the NBA. Not to mention his basketball owner letting him go play AA baseball for two years at one of White Sox MiLB affiliates amid rumors of gambling.
I'm not saying cheating, but the rules got bent plenty of times.
