Michael Jordan's Comeback...Again:
Michael Jordan cannot make up his mind. He is the most competitive athlete of this generation but he can't decide what to compete in. Basketball, baseball, golf, acting, business, and who knows what next.
But of all his passions, basketball is what made him so famous and what he is best at. He has already done this before. Said he was done with basketball forever and changed his mind.
I am just tired of writers and sports experts telling Jordan to stay retired only because he made his last shot. If you still have that passion and are given the opportunity to continue it, I say why not.
Jordan, at 38, is still one of the elite players in the game. The Washington Wizards are now a .500 team and are competiting for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
Jordan has led the Wizards back to respectibility with a group that definitely would be hard pressed to acheive that feat on their own. Richard Hamilton, who has been out the past few weeks with an injury, is the only potential All-Star on the Wizards team.
There have been pleasent surprises, as Brendan Haywood has shown some of the potential that gave him first team all america honors at North Carolina.
But with the likes of Chris Whitney, Popeye Jones, and Hubert Davis getting key minutes for the Wizards, and young guys like Kwame Brown and Courtney Alexander riding the bench, Jordan has done something incredible this season.
It has given fans in Washington something to cheer for. It has given NBA fans a reason to attend a Tuesday night game against the Wizards. To see Michael one more time; If only for 48 minutes.
