Michael Jordan is giving his thoughts on the NBA’s era of superteams, this time from the perspective of an owner.

In a recent interview with Cigar Aficionado Magazine, His Airness expressed some concerns about competitive balance in the league.

“I think it’s going to hurt the overall aspect of the league from a competitive standpoint,” said Jordan of the superteam, according to Ben Golliver of Sports Illustrated. “You’re going to have one or two teams that are going to be great and another 28 teams that are going to be garbage. Or they’re going to have a tough time surviving in the business environment.”

In recent years, Jordan, who is the principal owner of the Charlotte Hornets, had offered some opinions on superteams from a player standpoint. But he is far from the only prominent basketball figure who has concerns with this current era of the Warriors and the Cavs continuing to bludgeon everybody.
