(AP) -- Michael Jordan vows to help Charlotte
experience what winning is about, telling reporters and season
ticket holders it's a "dream come true" to own the Bobcats.

 The  whirlwind of media interviews comes a day after the
rest of the NBA's owners approved his $275 million purchase from
Bob Johnson. Jordan is the first former player to own an NBA team,
and the second black majority owner. Johnson was the first.

 Jordan had been a part owner of the Bobcats with the final say
on all basketball decisions since 2006. But he hired a general
manager and was rarely heard from or seen in Charlotte.

 That's changed since he agreed just before midnight on Feb. 26
to buy the team outright. Jordan says he'll spend more time in
Charlotte to build the franchise.
