D-League owner sets stakes for 1-on-1Comment Email Print Share Associated Press LEHI, Utah -- The owner of the Utah Jazz's NBA Development League teamwants to see Michael Jordan go 1-on-1 against Bryon Russell one more time. Brandt Andersen is offering a $100,000 donation to the charity of the winner'schoice if he can get Jordan and Russell to play a game of 21. Jordan's jumper over Russell in Game 6 of the 1998 NBA finals gave the Chicago Bulls a 4-2series win over Utah. Jazz fans still insist Jordan pushed off Russell. During Jordan's Hall of Fame speech, he said he was motivated by Russell'strash talk toward him during his first retirement. Andersen says he has spoken to Russell and left a message for Jordan through a mutual friend. Andersen'ssuggestion: Jordan vs. Russell during halftime of the Utah Flash's home opener.
