The man is the greatest sportsman EVER! What a pro.

Haven't followed basketball too much lately though, not since the Hawks got rid of Mookie Blaylock, Steve Smith, Mutombo etc.

Dominique Wilkins, what's he up to now? He was my hero when I was a kid, The Human Highlight film.

How is MJ doing?

Isn't he hangin' out with P sometimes? I remember pics of that.

I have to admit - about the time MJ left the Bulls...I left basketball.

I'd love to see him play in a team with other superstars, but that isn't what he chose to do - instead he followed his heart - which I respect.

I was one of the lucky ones who watched his games from way back when he was on the Olympic team...what a great player.

I've lost touch with what's up with Mike. If you know what he's up to, and it wouldn't be much trouble - I'd be interested in reading about it.

The NBA needs Michael Jordon I think. Isn't it going downhill financially? Or was without him?

Is it still Stern in charge?

Is Jordan still playing? My brother loved Jordan and would constantly play videos of Jordan, The Bulls and the NBA. It was either videos of Prince or the NBA in our house!

Michael Jordan fucking around is his wife's problem, not the NBA's...

Yep, both MJ's had a terrible week.
Jackson almost killed a newborn by hanging him
out of a window..
and Jordan's mistress opened up to the court
about their affair. He sued her for extortion,
and she spilled the beans.

Not good to be an MJ lately...

How's Magic Johnson?

Michael Jordan Plays for the Washington Wizards.He is a Co-Owner of the Team.lets say He is on His Last Legs&His Team is just kinda there IMHO.He is One of the Greatest Players Ever IMHO.but it's the Laker Show&Shaq's World now.

mistermaxxx said:

Thank you mistermaxxx for the update!

LaVisHh said:

anytime.He wears Number 23# on the Wizards but it isn't the same.He is playing off the Bench nowadays as a 6th Man.His Coach is Doug Collins.His Coach back in Chicago before Phil Jackson took over.

No

mistermaxxx said:

But actually he's not a co-owner of the team anymore. Once you become a player again you have to divest your financial interest in the team, tho he will be co-owner again when he finally hangs up the sneakers for good.

Wolf said:

not on Paper but everybody knows He is running that team.He brought Stackhouse there&Doug Collins there when He came there.Jordan runs that Team&It shows.pretty much everybody from last season is gone.

mistermaxxx said:

He made those decisions when he was in position to make them. As a player he's not since he has to defer to others in the front office.

Wolf said:

He Brought Stackhouse in this Year long after He turned in the paper work.MJ still controls that team.

mistermaxxx said:

Yeah dude, he turned it in when he wasn't a player.

Wolf said:

Mike is still Pimping that Team.

Man the grizzlies just got their FIRST win of the season against the Wizards!

Wolf said:

&Jerry Stackhouse says that was the worst Loss too have.

SuperiorTe said:

Magic is doing Great.still Associated with the Lakers though He was trying too Buy Stock into the Seattle SuperSonics.He has His Magic Johnson Records Company distributed through MCA Records.His Stock in the Magic Johnson Movie Houses with Sony.He has His Stock in Starbucks Cofee,Burger spots,&He also was the Executive Producer on the Film"Brown Sugar".Magic is a Very Busy Cat nowadays.He also has a Interest in a Bank.Magic has Probably made even more of a Impact in his Post Retirment Career than in his Playing Days it could be Argued.

SuperiorTe said:

the NBA is taking it's cue from baseball making a Stronger Pitch overseas.the NBA doesn't really need Jordan anymore.going by His Play&the Success of the Wizard it's just another team.but the Image of Him helps with Selling out certain palces.but folks just pay too see Him but they aren't expecting much&going by what I have seen not much is gonna happen with Him there IMHO.

I'm going to see Michael Jordan and the Wizards on December 4th here in Detroit. I hope he plays - last year he didn't play in the game I went to. (He didn't even show up).

He had the ultimate retiring moment: a 3-pointer, in the last seconds of the last game of the series, that won the game.

He shouldn't have come back to the NBA as a player. He is part owner of the Wizards, but he should've stayed on the sidelines.

Actually it was a 2 pointer. And it came on the most blatant push off of a defender for a non-call that I've ever seen to win a game.

Supernova said:

Don't Faint We are in Actual Agreement about Something WOW!!!not too mention that Howard Esley's 3-Pointer Beat the Buzzer in the 2nd Quarter&got called off.and How in the World did Jordan get away with knocking the ball out of Karl Malone's Hands in UTAH without a Foul being Called??No Foul on Jordan in Utah??very suspect.

mistermaxxx said:

We agree about many things. Though, not lately.


I don't remember those specific plays, but superstars get most of the calls - except for Kobe Bryant, it seems. It's been that way in the NBA as far as I can remember. And late in games I've noticed that refs don't like to make big calls that would be the last play of the game, or potentially change the outcome - witness game 5 of the WCF last year after that ball went out of bounds and was given back to the team that sent it out of bounds.

Supernova said:

Glassy-Eyed Webber lost that Ball&Knew it.Bobby Jackson Mugged Kobe's Jersey¬hing was Called.Peace
