It has been eight seasons since Michael Jordan finally hung it up and most retirees usually let themselves go and settle into life after sports, not MJ. At the morning session of the Charlotte Bobcats basketball camp, Jordan was asked by a camper if he could still dunk. MJ, who never shied away from a challenge, took the camper on and drove to the basket for a simple jam much to the amazement of those attending the session. Let us know what you think about “His Airness” still having it and head over to NBA.com to see the dunk for yourself.

The Charlotte Bobcats made headlines earlier on draft day by trading Stephen Jackson, Shawn Livingston and the 19th pick for Corey Maggette and the Bucks’ 9th pick. It all worked out for the best as Rich Cho drafted Bismack Biyombo and Kemba Walker with the 7th and 9th picks respectively. Biyombo played in Spain last season but turned heads at the Nike Hoop Summit where he recorded the first triple double in the event’s history. He is a tenacious defender and a presence on the inside, something the Bobcats desperately needed.

If you haven’t heard of Kemba Walker by now, you might be living under a rock. Walker took the nation by storm during the Big East Tournament and NCAA Tournament and was named NCAA Tournament MOP after his UConn Huskies won the national championship. He brings leadership to a team that needs it and has been compared to Chris Paul with his ability to get to the basket and dish the rock. To complete their draft, the Bobcats selected Jeremy Tyler in the second round. Overall, the Charlotte Bobcats had a successful draft that addressed their needs.

Michael Jordan’s Charlotte Bobcats franchise are amidst a pre-draft trade that would net them the 7th overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft as well as veteran forward Corey Maggette – a Duke alumni. The Bobcats, who already have the 9th overall pick, would give up veteran guard Stephen Jackson, and the 19th overall pick.

With the NBA Draft more than a week away, Michael Jordan sought out help and brought in Rich Cho, someone with a proven track record. Cho will serve as the Charlotte Bobcats’ new general manager replacing Rod Higgins who was promoted to director of basketball operations. Before becoming the first Asian GM in the NBA, Cho was an engineer and lawyer. Prior to being fired by the Portland Trailblazers at the end of their 2010-11 season, he was responsible for bringing in Wesley Matthews, Gerald Wallace and acquiring an additional 2011 first round pick. Cho’s expertise in legal matters and cap management will be crucial for the Charlotte Bobcats as they look to build toward the future. Continue reading Jordans Daily for all Jordan related news.

The upcoming 2011 NBA Draft could be the most important draft in years for Michael Jordan and his Charlotte Bobcats despite it being one of the weaker drafts in recent history. They acquired the 9th and 19th picks in this year’s draft from the Portland Trailblazers when they traded forward Gerald Wallace. The Bobcats worked out Morehead State’s Kenneth Faried, who scouts say is one of the few NBA ready players in the draft. Other players that worked out for the Bobcats included Markieff Morris, Alex Stephenson, Gary Flowers, LaMarshall Corbett and Demontez Stitt. via TheSacramentoBee.

Now that the 2011 NBA Draft Lottery has come and gone, its time to look at the Charlotte Bobcats’ needs. Unfortunately for Michael Jordan’s franchise, they didn’t land the #1 pick as that, along with the #4 pick, went to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Bobcats need help especially in the frontcourt and with Arizona PF Derrick Williams likely to go into the top three, they’ll have to look elsewhere from the talent pool. At the ninth pick, Kansas PF Marcus Morris would be a solid selection as he has the ability to stretch the floor and rebound. With the nineteenth pick, if Jordan Hamilton is still on the board, its a great pick as he is one of the best scorers in the draft and as a rebuilding franchise, you can put pieces around him. To see what Jordan does, tune into the NBA Draft on June 23rd.
