Purchasing the Bobcats is the culmination of my post-playing career goal of becoming the majority owner of an NBA franchise.

[Jordan, 42, said he could still make a contribution to an NBA team.] Even though, physically, I can't do it, the mind says, 'Yeah, I can still do it,' and I still think I can do it better than most in the NBA, ... Driven From Within.

Jeff Malone was one of the toughest guys I played against during my career,

'I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot... and I missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that's precisely why I succeed''.

It's hard to say if the NBA is hurt by the influx of younger players, but it's definitely impacted the league.

I never experienced this ever in my career. Not just my NBA career, but my career overall. It just gets worse. It seems like we can't stop the bleeding. Just constant, constant, constant bleeding. We haven't found a Band-Aid to patch it up yet.
