So theres no doubt all of you have read the article stating that Michael Jordan is attempting a comeback. Lots of people want to just throw this to the side and say its never going to happen, but I'm not so sure. If it were ANYONE else, I'd agree, but this is Michael Jordan we're talking about. If anyone could do it, its him.

What do you think?

Here's the article for reference:
http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nba--could-michael-jordan-play-at-50--his-trainer-is-ready-if-he-does-003920978.html

Don't really see where it says he's actually attempting a comeback, but the media coverage of it would be like past Brett Favre returns on steroids. Even Tim Tebow would be wondering where his news stories were, and Manti Te'o's girlfriend would wonder what others on twitter are saying baout Kobe and DHoward's relationship.

Haven't heard he's attempting a comeback. He was in a lot of pain the day after beating gilchrist one on one. Don't think his body could handle the grind

He could average a point per minute if they kept his playing time below 13 min or so and I think a 50 year old could handle that much.

I play with old guys all the time that are that old or older. Their hands are still quick if not quicker. Its their feet that are slow.

^ Yeah, but those old guys weren't playing 82 games a year at the highest level in the NBA, not including playoffs and Olympics

That said, I still think Jordan could do it if he only played ~15 minutes a game, every other game
