File-This April 6, 2009, file photo shows former North Carolina and NBA player Michael Jordan at halftime of the championship game at the men's NCAA Final Four college basketball tournament.

But Jordan wants to keep his team, and the city, relevant. It’s one reason he aggressively pursued the All-Star game with such vigor. (AP Photo/Paul Sancya, File) **FILE**
