Back in 2013, Michael Jordan's Hornets, back then they were called the Bobcats, finished the season at 21-61. The Bobcats finished 26th in the league and you'd figure there would be no real memorable moments from this team. Yet Michael Jordan proved he was still the greatest player of all time during this season. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist was a 19 year old rookie during this time, when a 49 year old Michael Jordan played him one on one. Kidd-Glichrist lost the game to Michael Jordan and said that "It was hard for me. I lost. He's the greatest that ever played the game." There's a 30 year age gap there between the two, thats like you playing against your 50 year old father and losing the game that shouldn't happen. Jordan has been retired for almost 10 years at that point and still managed to beat an NBA player.
