Michael Jordan Preparing For Comeback At 50?

[NimzJ]

Skip Bayless and Rich Bucher believe the ball is in motion for MJ's newest and most miraculous comeback.

If you watch the video here, ESPN's First Take cast discuss a possible comeback:

So basically, MJ has been practicing in shorts with his team, the Charlotte Bobcats. This is just speculation that he is preparing to make a comeback. Personally, I think they are reading too much into this.

Imagine a 50 year old MJ in the NBA though!

No.

obviously from a basketball standpoint that would be terrible but since he is the owner i cant imagine a better way to increase ticket sales.

[futbol>>>IRAN]

it would be amazing but he shouldn't do it. he needs his legend to rest.

[Ridi-Q-Lus]

He should have never came back (with the wizards) and he certainly should not do it now.

I dont see how playing with his team means that he is making a comeback... the guy is a basketball legend obviously you're going to see him in that situation

It's obviously all speculation. The ESPN guys think he is working on a comeback (which I don't see ever happening). I just posted this for discussion purposes and the thought of having a 50 year old on the court.

Me and my friends watched the NBA because of him. It would be great if he could play like that again. I remember my friends tried to imitate his playing style.

[K.C.I.N.]

He would still OWN kobe or lebron, even at 50!

Stop the bullshit, the guy cant play some BB with his own team without ESPN all over his ass? I have seen the videos of his training with the team and MJ still got his jumshots I tell ya.

Hopefully this will inspire Ali Daei to come out of retirement and return to TM.
At 41, he's a youngster compared to Jordan.

save for the last game shit is almost head to head.(still 23 points for 40 years old not bad,Kobe had a great game) And do you realize 40 years old,knee injured,broken ribs Jordan vs 24 years old Kobe. (when he was getting championships) Kobe tried to guard jordan and failed. Get that weak stuff out of here!

I don't know what you are saying but I am saying he wouldn't own Kobe at the age of 50. Are you saying that? If so then GTFO here!
