Chandler Parsons said it to describe Jordan’s change of heart: “He wasn’t ready for being a franchise player. He was scared.”  I don’t know if he was scared but Parsons was right – Jordan couldn’t carry a team like the Mavericks, but playing with Chris Paul and Blake Griffin best suits his game. Also on the free-agent trail, LaMarcus Aldridge reportedly thought the Lakers’ analytic presentation wasn’t up to par.  Translated, he probably meant his game couldn’t carry a team like the Lakers.  However, playing with proven stars on the San Antonio Spurs would be better fit for him.  He is similar to Chris Bosh (remember him?)  He was smart enough to go to Miami and play with James and Wade.***
