I’ve had tendinitis since college.

There’s only one Michael Jordan.

I like control.

Being Michael Jordan means acting the same as I always have.

In college I never realized the opportunities available to a pro athlete. I’ve been given the chance to meet all kinds of people, to travel and expand my financial capabilities, to get ideas and learn about life, to create a world apart from basketball.

It is nerve-wracking watching my kids’ games.

In any investment, you expect to have fun and make money.

It’s absolutely wrong that I don’t want guys to challenge me. And the people who say that aren’t in the room.

Do I need my number retired throughout the course of the league to acknowledge what I’ve done? No.

I will not quit this game because of what the media has done to me.

I never thought a role model should be negative.

In reality, I never want to grow up.

I wasn’t really a work-conscious type of person. I was a player. I loved to play sports.

I won’t have any competitive instincts in any sports, other than golf. I can’t see being competitive in sports any more.

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