Air Jordan's return still is unknown
The Associated Press
DEERFIELD. Ill. — The Chicago Bulls might be on trial, with Michael Jordan serving as judge and jury.
"I don't know if money's the issue," Chicago coach Phil Jackson said Monday of Jordan's much anticipated — but far from official — return to pro basketball.
Michael Jordan
"Maybe he's making the
decision as to how good this team can be when he plays with them. It's a challenge, maybe, to this club to play well enough so that, if he came back, we could have a chance."
If that's the case, the Bulls need to improve if they want their all-time star to come back. The Bulls took a 31-31 record into last night's game at Washington.
Jackson said that Jordan's discussions with club owner Jerry Reinsdorf would play a bigger role in Jordan's decision.
"The impediment might just happen in that area — not on the court, not on how well he plays and maybe not even on how well this team could do," Jackson said. "Most of all, probably, it's up in Jerry Reindorf's hands right now. I have a feeling that they've got some things going on there."
Reindorf said Sunday that he hadn't spoken with Jordan since last week, when Jordan told him he was giving up baseball.
However, the Chicago Tribune and Newsweek reported that there had been discussions between Reinsdorf and Jordan, who is seeking assurances that Scottie Pippen will stay and be financially satisfied.
Jordan's agent, David Falk, didn't respond to telephone messages.
