<div class="quote_poster">Quoting :</div><div class="quote_post">"It was an atmosphere on edge," Abe Pollin explained in his first in-depth interview since dismissing Jordan five months ago. "It was not a healthy atmosphere to produce a happy organization or a winning team." Given Jordan's lack of success in Washington, the actual decision to get rid of him didn't prove as unpopular as the means.</div> http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2003/bask...n.ap/index.html

I watched that game against the Knicks !! MJ scored 39 points I think and the wizards still couldn't win !!! he was doing everything ... and I mean everything .. and the others ( Dixon + Hughes + Kwame ) couldn't even run the plays right ... and I think it was very honest statement when he said ... : " It's sad to see a 40 year old man ... runs and gives effort more than the 20 + year old players "
