Does that change your opinion on Jordan? Or this season? Because every trade the Bobcats have made since Jordan has been here has worked out to their benefit.

Wise thinking by the GOAT.

If you guys would've signed Iverson your team would have gone downhill. This is coming from a guy who grew to appreciate him, but he became the textbook definition of a 'team cancer' these past few years.

I've always thought that crossover was overrated. Yeah, Jordan bit on the fakes, but he still contested AI's shot pretty well.

One of the few smart moves Jordan's made. Charlotte's where they are because of their defense. Iverson subtracts from their defense. Charlotte's a very weak offensive team. Iverson is not a good offensive player. Further, he has become a sideshow in recent years. He had absolutely nothing to offer the Bobcats.

Yeah, good call by MJ. His trades in Charlotte have been decent too.

He desperately needs to let someone else make the calls on the draft though. I mean..... damn. Adam Morrison. Gerald Henderson. Jury's out on DJ Augustin, but it's not looking too good.

Easily a smart move...you dont even have to say in hindsight its a smart move. After his season in Detroit I was kinda surprised any team signed him.

And what exactly has Dirk won?

Iverson crossing MJ out his drawers will be shown long after anything of note Dirk has done.
