VIDEO: Michael Jordan says he can beat Hornets players 1-on-1
Michael Jordan has a heart of gold, forged from the numerous awards and championship trophies he won throughout the course of his legendary career.
His loving and caring nature allows him to step aside and show mercy on the Charlotte Hornets - the team he currently runs as part-owner and head of basketball operations.
Rather than have a 52-year-old man annihilate the players in games of 1-on-1, Jordan knows better than to "demolish their confidence," which he elaborated on during a recent interview with France's L'Equipe.

There's being confident, and then there's being "old man Jordan" confident.
His Airness isn't the only one who buys into his hype, though, with 34 percent of 1,471 registered voters in a recent poll believing Jordan could defeat Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James in 1-on-1 action ... today.
