May 4 news, today, Michael Jordan's documentary "The Last Dance" aired episodes 5 and 6. Episode 6 talks about Jordan's good bets, while former Bobcats player Adam Morrison mentions a little story about Jordan's bets.
The Charlotte Bobcats (predecessor of the Charlotte Hornets) drafted Gonzaga University small striker Adam Morrison in 2006 with a probing sign, for which he played for two seasons. And Jordan is the owner of the team.
Morrison's career has not been successful, especially jordan's offensive ability that would have been bullish on his NCAA leading scorer, averaging 28.1 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game. However, after entering the NBA, Morrison was unable to respond to a higher intensity rhythm and became one of the weakest "tandem" in history.
Morrison recalls making a bet with his boss that year, "We had an unwritten rule that most people liked." If your alma mater team (basketball or football) beats another team, you win a $100 bet. My rookie season, my alma mater, Gonzaga University, won at the time at the University of North Carolina (Jordan's alma mater), and I met Jordan at the team Christmas party and I said, 'Hey, you owe me $100!'" Actually, I just said it casually. But Jordan said, 'Oh well. He pulled about $8,000 to $10,000 out of his wallet and gave it to me. ”
In this regard, netizens said, "From wizards to bobcats to hornets, it can be said that Jordan's draft vision is really not good" "Dare to win the god of basketball? He spent ten thousand to buy your career" "At that time, bobcats really trained him, saying that the unlimited right to fire is not excessive, but this product is really not GOOD, how can not cultivate" "This corporate culture is really ... "This is probably a lot of income in my career" "Jordan: just bought a cigar without change, take it!" ”
