 Legendary NBA coach Phil Jackson has coached 2 of the greatest NBA players to have ever played the game. For years he's dodged the primary question most sports fans & reporters have desperately wanted him to answer. Now that he's making the media rounds promoting his new book, Phil Jackson is finally speaking out. Phil Jackson compares Air Jordan to the Black Mamba in the above video of his interview with Jay Leno. Jay referenced Jackson's book, Eleven Rings: The Soul of Success (due out May 21, 2013; available for pre-order at Amazon) in guiding their talk in this direction. In it, and in the above clip, Coach Jackson declares that both Jordan and Bryant are world class competitors; matched up in several aspects, but there are key differences, according to one of the few men in the world who can really say so. Coach 'Zen Master' also talks about how he set up a meeting between the two and his near-return to the Los Angeles Lakers' bench. Kobe recently took to twitter & didn't exactly seem too pleased with his former coach's comparisons. I'd have to agree with Phil though....

Magic Johnson decided to jump on the Michael Jordan bandwagon and give his two cents on Lebron James' decision to leave Cleveland and join Wade and Bosh in Miami. Johnson agreed with his fellow Hall Of Famer, stating they would focus more on beating their rivals than joining them.
"We didn't think about it cause that's not what we were about," said Johnson
While he agreed with Jordan, Magic also gave Lebron James a compliment saying James, 25, has a bright future once his NBA career is over.
"I think he will be, one day, a great businessman," Johnson Said Send Blog · Share on Facebook · Bookmark on Delicious Michael Jordan Looks like this took place at a camp. What do you think???

He's not back in the game quite yet.
Despite Tiger Woods' imminent divorce from wife of five years Elin, 30, an insider tells Us Weekly his legal team told him he can't date until the split is finalized.
"Elin's building a character case (based on his serial philandering)," the insider says. "Elin's team is watching (Tiger's) every move."
Her goal? "She wants more money than Michael Jordan's ex got," another source says, referring to the former NBA star's $168 million payout to his ex-wife.
As for custody of the kids Sam, 2, and Charlie, 15 months, "They'll share it," says the insider.
Send Blog · Share on Facebook · Bookmark on Delicious  CHARLOTTE, N.C. - He has been called the NBA's greatest player and one of the country's top pitchmen.
Now Michael Jordan is ready for a new title: NBA owner.
With minutes to go until his exclusive negotiating window was to expire, Jordan struck a deal late Friday night to buy controlling interest of the Charlotte Bobcats, putting the six-time NBA champion in charge of the money-losing team in his home state.
Owner Bob Johnson announced in a statement that he's agreed to sell the Bobcats to Jordan, who has been a part-owner of the team since 2006. Jordan has been running the team's basketball operations.
The purchase price and details of Jordan's ownership group -- called MJ Basketball Holdings LLC -- weren't immediately available. A spokeswoman for Johnson and a spokesman for Jordan said neither was available for comment early Saturday.
The league's owners must approve the purchase.
Jordan was in competition with former Houston Rockets executive George Postolos, who also had an ownership group together to buy the team. But Postolos said Jordan had the exclusive right to buy the club until just before midnight Friday night.
Jordan hit another last-second shot - reaching a deal minutes before the deadline.
"I remain committed to becoming an NBA owner, and I'm glad that Michael will continue to bring his talent to the sport and the league," Postolos said in a phone interview with The Associated Press. "He's very, very committed."
It will end Johnson's stint as the first black majority owner of a major professional sports team. Jordan becomes another black owner in another milestone for the Hall of Famer, but one that comes with many challenges.
Jordan, a five-time NBA MVP and 14-time All-Star, has made millions selling sneakers, apparel and other items. Now he'll begin a completely different role trying to make the Bobcats a winner, and the franchise and Charlotte's downtown arena profitable.
After paying $300 million for the expansion team that began play in 2004-05, Johnson has accumulated about $150 million in debt and the team is expected to lose tens of millions this season as they struggle to draw fans and find sponsorships.
Johnson, the founder of Black Entertainment Television, shook up management several times before recruiting Jordan to be a minority investor while giving him the final say on all basketball decisions.
Jordan, who turned 47 this month, has had a unique role with the Bobcats. General manager Rod Higgins runs the day-to-day basketball operations and Jordan has rarely attended practices or games, or worked on the marketing side of the operation.
Jordan has had some missteps - drafting the disappointing Adam Morrison No. 3 overall in 2006 - but he was also able to lure Hall of Famer Larry Brown to become coach at the beginning of last season.
Jordan and Brown have made seven trades involving 21 players since the start of last season. The November acquisition of Stephen Jackson from Golden State has helped Charlotte get into playoff contention in the Eastern Conference.
But attendance has still lagged, and Jordan has been criticized in Charlotte for rarely being seen - despite his iconic status in the state.
