So many big NBA stars have been linked to the New York Knicks. Among many, there is also Michael Jordan. His agent David Falk spoke of this during an interview on SiriusXM NBA Radio, per CBS Sports:
“Anything is possible. Michael is an extremely loyal guy. He wanted to play for one team his whole career. He was loved in the city of Chicago, he had tremendous business relationships in the city of Chicago. I think it would have taken something – it would have taken a disaster in the discussion with Chicago for that to happen.
I wouldn’t say it was impossible. We obviously had to do our due diligence in the event that a disaster did happen, you don’t want to be unprepared. But I think the chance of him leaving Chicago for any team was unlikely. Now for me, obviously in 1996 representing both Michael and Patrick [Ewing]. If they both could play for the same team on the moon it would’ve been amazing.
Michael would’ve given Patrick the championship he craved, you would’ve had the most dominating big man in the league and the most dominating wing player in the league on the same team. It had nothing to do with being in New York, it could have been on the moon.”
