NBA: Charlotte Bobcats-Press Conference

NBA Hall of Famer and Charlotte Hornets owner Michael Jordan isn’t a fan of the NBA’s so-called superteam era.

“I think it’s going to hurt the overall aspect of the league from a competitive standpoint,” Jordan said in an interview with Cigar Aficionado magazine. “You’re going to have one or two teams that are going to be great, and another 28 teams that are going to be garbage. Or they’re going to have a tough time surviving in the business environment.”

Jordan is likely referring to the concentration of talent on the Golden State Warriors’ roster.
