Flight School is an exclusive and very expensive annual basketball training camp for kids and adults. What makes this basketball camp extra special is that the instructor is NBA legend Michael Jordan himself.
In this year’s Flight School, there’s one interesting story about a mutual funds CEO named John Roger Jr. and how he beat Michael Jordan on a game of 1-on-1. Below is the video showing how the regular guy “beat” the greatest NBA or basketball player of all time.
So what do you think? Did this guy really beat Michael Jordan?
When I first saw the title of the article I read, I couldn’t believe that Michael Jordan would be beat in a game of 1-on-1. After watching the video, I believe that this guy didn’t beat Michael Jordan. If “His Airness” really wanted to win against this guy, he could have easily done it with layups and dunks (like what he did against the other participants including Damon Wayans) but instead he settled for jumpers. IMO, Michael Jordan was just playing it easy against this guy and to me that doesn’t count. If he really played hard both offensively and defensively and this guy beat him then I’ll accept it. Sorry, but I’m a die hard Michael Jordan fan. Hehe
Damon Wayan’s comments at the end of the video made me laugh so hard. From what I know, Damon Wayans is a regular in Michael Jordan’s Flight School along with a number of other celebrities.

@Air Jordans - Yup, I totally agree. His Airness was just playing easy and as you said, being a good sport. Thanks for dropping by!
Btw, love your blog man! Not only am I a Michael Jordan fan but also of Air Jordans.

I can’t believe it…. I don’t think Jordan was really trying… He was just being a good sport!
