Jordan ready to upgrade Bobcats
Posted Jun 23, 2006
Michael Jordan owns a chunk of the Charlotte Bobcats. He wants to see his money put to good use, and that means he wants to see it go toward upgrading the roster and winning more games. In his first public interview since it was announced last week that Jordan had bought a share of the team and would be the team's "managing member of basketball operations," Jordan was outspoken about the need for the franchise to focus more on basketball success and less on business success.
