    If he is selling the home because he is losing money on Bob Cats, why doesn't he just sell the team?

    and you surmised by that that I speak for everybody in the world? pretty large leap considering I said I suppose, which would also indicate that it was a guess and that i could be completely off.

    but okay. Well let me make it clearer, I realize my opinion of the place and his reasons for purchase are completely subjective to my own fallace opinion.

    He didn't buy it, he had it built, FWIW....


    I really doubt that's why. He surely has other investments, which make him a lot of money, not to mention endorsements.

    More than likely he's got no need for it, like someone else mentioned. His real home is Carolina, not Chicago. Probably spends too much time away, so the money to maintain is being wasted.

    Jordan isn't in financial trouble,his kids are grown and since he owns the bobcats,maybe he moves to charlotte. I don't see the big deal. For those saying its too big or not warm enough, f that. That house looks incredible to me.

    he probably hasnt lived in it in 10 years or even set foot in it for some time (maybe Cha @ Chi games, that's about all).

    He doesn't live in Chicago.

    Or they haven't seen LerBon's house he recently built. I think it has a golden statue of his head or something, a bowling alley, and his own starbucks or mackdonalds.
