And being Michael Jordan means being the best. He means the challenge of leading a team to a championship, of willing a team to a title. I doubt he can do it. He can't defy time. Call me foolish if you will, but I'm going to go way, way out on a limb here and say that Jordan is human.
Humans get old.
Jordan was the best player of all time, but that doesn't last forever. You could see him aging in his final season, when he was still the best but not the overwhelming force of nature he had been. That was three years ago. There is another issue here, too. Jordan is currently president and part-owner of the Wizards.
