NBA fines Jordan for comments on labor situation
NBA Hall of Famer and Charlotte Bobcats owner Michael Jordan might have more in common with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones than you may think. Jordan has been fined for making comments about the current labor situation in the NBA. Jordan recently stated that the current system in the NBA is broken and that revenue sharing is needed. It was just two years ago that the NFL fined Jerry Jones $100,000. for his remarks about the NFL CBA. However, Jones unlike Jordan, called for the end of revenue sharing in the NFL.
