Posted on | Friday, April 29, 2011 | No Comments

Bobcats owner Michael Jordan doesn't frequently give interviews, but when he does, the former NBA icon has plenty to say. Among his comments in a wide-ranging, season-ending interview with the Charlotte Observer:

• He said he's not cheap about player payroll and, "I want to spend money on a team that gets us into the top four. I would love to do that. That's all we think about."

• He believes the team had no choice but to trade Gerald Wallace, since it had hit a plateau on the fringe of the playoffs and there was no other way to proceed.

• He said the Bobcats would have reached the playoffs had Paul Silas started the season as coach.
