Jordan ends his caree
amid team turmoil
By Joseph White
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — Michael
Jordan surely expected a differ
ent ending, not a finale amid the
turmoil of his self-assembled,
crumbling team.
Jordan finishes his NBA play
ing career — part three — in
Philadelphia on Wednesday
night. His Washington Wizards
teammates will probably try to
send him out a winner, but there's
no telling what to expect after the
tongue-lashing some players got
from coach Doug Collins at
Jordan's last home game.
After Monday night's 93-79
loss to the New York Knicks,
Collins criticized some players
for showing "insidious" disre
spect to the coach. He implied it
could lead to a roster purge in
the offseason.
"It doesn't matter how much
money you make or what you
do, you still respect the people
who are trying to bring the best
out in you," Collins said.
"Somewhere along the line,
that's been lost. And I sure hope
we can get it back, not just here,
but in all cities in the NBA."
Caught off guard by Collins'
remarks, Jordan supported the
coach but said the timing or the
method might not have been
the best.
"These are things you have to
deal with," said Jordan, who
plans to return to the Wizards'
front office. "I'd rather for them
not to be out for everyone's opin
ion. Those are things I'd like to
field internally, but I think Doug
felt very disrespected."
At least this is helping the
40-year-old Jordan with one
wish: He didn't want a big,
somber fuss over his retirement.
Instead, he's got a big mess.

His next job probably will
be to fix it and continue his
quest to turn around a franchise
that hasn't won a playoff game
in 15 years. Even with Jordan
on the court, the Wizards have
had back-to-back losing sea
sons marred by bad chemistry.
He'll sit down with team
owner Abe Pollin after the season.
"My ending is going to be
when this team is successful,"
Jordan said. "I am sure every
body would love to see me hit

finals. Sometimes not being
