If he was warmed up and everything I wonder what kinda of specialty dunks he could do. That dunk in the video was probably easy for him.

During his hall of fame induction, the man said and I quote,"don't be suprised if you see me playing ball at 50".....Well, ill tell you what, I don't think we should take his words lightly because in his mind he is still a competitor and I know he still has his jumpshot...He's not just an average anybody player that's retired, he's JORDAN, the one and only.....He may not be as good as he used to, but with the proper preperation I have no doubt that he could still be productive in the nba...He's JORDAN dammit and he can do whatever he wants...It would be the most amazing thing in sports history if he did actually come back again and has sucess...Definately interesting and entertaining for sure......Hey guys, don't the bulls still need a 2guard????????? Well why the fuk not????????..That would be sick as hell to have a Derrick Rose-Michael Jordan backcourt...I'm sure it ould be better than a Rose-Bogans backcourt........JUST DO IT, and bring back Pippen too..Pip can still dunk, shoot and handle the rock....

Jordan has too much pride...he can't do it anymore and he knows it. He bragged that he can beat anybody...on his staff. Big difference from the NBA.

Nice to see he still can dunk though. Good stuff.

even if he did come back it wouldn't be with the Bulls. It would be with the team he owns. Jordan probably still could ave 10-15ppg in the NBA. But ya he has too much pride to be a shell of his former self.


About his staff he actually practices with his players from time to time and dominates they say. But only for short stretches because he isn't in the best shape.

Jordan, Pippen and Rodman should all come back to the Bulls next season.

Probabely not happining but it doesn't hurt to imagine it..It would be fukin cool as shit......I just had a sick thought, maybe the whole 96 or 92 bulls team can get back together and create an expansion team named the oldschool bulls or somthing like that.....The old against the young would definately get a lot of tv coverage and hype.....I know it won't happen, but definately interesting to say the least.....

He looked like he could do that dunk without warming up (idk if he was warmed up in that video). If that's the case, he could definitely put a little flair on his dunks if he was all warmed up and whatnot. Definitely not anywhere close to the stuff he could do 20 years ago, or even 12 years ago, but still impressive. And he's probably out of shape too. xD

Michael would definitely want to play for the Bulls while also owning the Charlotte Bobcats.

I love that idea. Do you think we could barrow Bobcat players to fill out our depth charts too?

well... he's 6'6. if he extends his arms over his head, he can probably reach close to 9 feet. [when I put my arms over my head, the tip of my middle finger is 20 inches from the top of my head, and I'm assuming MJ's wingspan is a lot longer than mine]

so MJ had to jump a little over a foot to dunk the ball... which isn't that hard... but I guess for a 48 year old it's pretty good haha

I don't think he could own the bobcats andplay for a differant team...When he was a gm for the wizards, he had to play for the wizards in his seond comeback..I personally think he wanted to play for a differant team then..I'm no expert on the rules in regards to that, but I'm sure if he still owned the bobcats that's who he would have to play for...The solution would be to sell the bobcats and make a little profit..Even if he sold the bobcats and got back what he payed for them or a little less it wouldn't hurt him one bit.....HE IS RICH OFF OF HIS jordan name brand anyway and always will be for generations to come, and his many other endorsements like hanes so money won't be an issue for him..As a matter of fact, he would probabely get new endorsements with other products and advertinseing if he came back to play.......AND AS FAR AS HIM BEING OUT OF SHAPE, THE LOCKOUT COULD SERVE IN HIS FAVOR IN GETTING BACK IN SHAPE AS FAR A TIME IS CONCERNED...only having a 2nd half of a season would definately be a negative turning into a positive in Jordans 48 year old favor......Just sayin people.....Hey wait a minue, don't. The Bulls need a 2 guard that can actuaally put the ball in the hole....From what I hear, Jordan still has a wicked jump shot including the fade away.......I think a Jordan Rose backcourt would be better than a Rose Bogans backcourt....He may be old , but this is Jordan we are talking about and to air is not human...He could get us 12 points a game easily........
