Michael Jordan learns less is more as NBA owner

Posted Nov 10, 2014
Just as he did during the championship stages of his playing career, Michael Jordan has gotten better as an owner by allowing himself to fade away. In the former case, it was adjusting his game and learning to pick his spots offensively. In the latter, it has been stepping back from day-to-day decisions involving the team he owns, the Charlotte Hornets, while allowing his basketball people to build a quality roster. (U-T San Diego)
