No one would dispute that Jordan is in the top ten of the all time great basketball players but I think he deserves serious consideration as being in the top ten all time worse sports managers/owners. The Wizards were brought to their knees with his meddling and advice...exhibit A Kwame Brown and the Bobcats just set a record for futility in the NBA: worst winning percentage. The Bobcats sealed the deal last night in Charlotte with the Knicks resting most of their starters. It was the 23rd loss in a row and mercifully the season ends before the Bobcats can set another record, although I guess carryover counts so they have a real shot at it. Certainly Jordan is perhaps the worst owner/manager in the NBA and probably in American Sports. Even Al Davis had some good years.

Shows you just how exceptional Jerry West was who would make the NBA top ten in both players and general managers though I guess some would quibble about his position as a player he was still one of the all time greats.
