Michael Jordan, Kwame Brown together again in Charlotte
Michael Jordan just doesn't know how to quit Kwame Brown.
Brown, drafted by Jordan with the No. 1 pick in the 2001 NBA draft, will sign with the Charlotte Bobcats, the team Jordan now owns, according to ESPN.com. Brown's agent, Mark Bartelstein, is the source of the report.
Jordan, of course, was president of the Wizards when Brown, 28, signed as a high schooler out of Georgia; he played for the team until being traded to the Lakers in 2005.
The reaction is about what you might expect.

That's either some crazy Karma, or Jordan is a glutton for punishment. You gotta wonder if anyone ran that by him first. I'm guessing not.

Kwame was the better athlete of those that came out, but the kid did not have the mental toughness nor capacity to be picked number 1 overall. Kwame is a 8 or 9th man, 6-11 265lbs big body. he's good enough for that. he won't have flashes of #1 overall pick.
