Michael Jordan is as
close to a perfect athlete as I have ever seen.
He may be the only guard/forward/center ever to play in the NBA, where
his accomplishments are legend. Had
someone cut off an arm, Jordan either would have sewn it back on to make the
winning shot or just played with one arm.
Oh, and he would have made the winning shot that way, too.
But Jordan the NBA team
owner (of the Charlotte Hornets) sure sounds different than Jordan the
player. Owner Jordan thinks super teams
are “going to hurt the overall aspect of the league from a competitive
standpoint,” he told Cigar Aficionado magazine in an upcoming interview. “You’re going to have one or two teams that
are going to be great, and another 28 teams that are going to be garbage.” You don’t say.
Back when he was a
player, Jordan had no problem being part of the U.S. Olympic “Dream Team” in
basketball. All those NBA pros made
fools of the rest of the word in 1992 (with Jordan) and again four years later
(without). So, how exactly were those
teams any different from what owner Jordan is complaining about today?
