摘要：
Jordan作為曾經的球員及現任老闆，
對聯盟縮時為44分鐘的實驗不予置評，偏向不贊成
但他認為如果要這樣做，並不適合把82場減少，
並且該考慮的是，場次減少、比賽時間減少，是否意味球員薪資也該斟酌減少呢？
記者提到Jordan完成82場季賽有9次之多，並完成67、69、72勝/82場的紀錄
這些都是Lebron待過的球隊未曾達到的，
以Jordan的球員經歷來講這件事絕對夠格，甚至以現任老闆來說
也提到了實際需要考慮的問題，
不過比賽時間下修的具體性，的確將會持續討論下去。
Michael Jordan disagrees with LeBron James, Dirk Nowitzki on 82-game schedule
Dan Feldman Oct 16, 2014, 9:00 AM EDT
LeBron James is no Michael Jordan.
If you’re among the Jordan loyalists looking for any chance to tear down
LeBron or any other current star, Jordan is giving you ammunition on a silver
platter – while making a legitimately good case.
After the NBA announced it would experiment with a 44-minute game, LeBron
(and Dirk Nowitzki) said fewer games were a preferable solution.
Jordan, via Chris Broussqr$ard of ESPN:
“I love both of those guys but as an owner who played the game, I loved
playing,” Jordan told ESPN.com during a telephone interview. “If I wasn’t
playing 82 games, I still would’ve been playing somewhere else because that’
s the love for the game I had. As a player, I never thought 82 games was an
issue.
“But if that’s what they want to do, we as owners and players can evaluate
it and talk about it. But we’d make less money as partners. Are they ready
to give up money to play fewer games? That’s the question because you can’t
make the same amount of money playing fewer games.”
“I would never shorten the game by four minutes,” said Jordan, who owns the
Charlotte Hornets, “unless guys were having physical issues.”
Jordan’s relentlessness throughout an entire, grueling regular season is
unmatched in NBA history. LeBron can’t hold a candle.
Jordan played 82 games nine times. LeBron has never done it.
Jordanqr$ played on teams that hit 67, 69 and 72 wins. LeBron’s teams have
never hit those marks.
I don’t think this is an issue Jordan understands as a player, because
nobody has ever played the game like him. His unwavering competitiveness in
games is unmatched. For everyone else, the season drags at times, and that
affects the product on the floor.
As an owner, though? Jordan gets it. Fewer games almost certainly means less
money. Maybe the sacrifice would be worth making, but the likely downside
must be acknowledged to begin any discussion.
心得：
我看明著是尊重跟尊敬，其實互看不爽，肯定是有的。
遺憾的是他們不是同一世代的競爭對手，
否則精彩的球場對決，張力更勝過這些嘴砲。
雖然我是old-school挺Jordan這邊，不過中肯點講，
在體能上無法比較誰優孰劣，LeBron也是有著優異的身體素質，這不可否認。
但帶領球隊度過季賽打完季後賽奪冠，
心理素質及領導魅力上，Lebron還是很有學習的地方。
44 min? 也許還是有很多其他地方可以微調的吧
