The announcements came within a couple days of one another. Michael Jordan confirmed this week that he is indeed coming back after a three-year layoff. He's coming back because he loves the game, because he thinks he can help the young Washington Wizards, and because he obviously got tired of never breaking a sweat.
     Across the country, Jazz guard John Stockton announced Thursday that he, too, is coming back. Because, well, he never said he wouldn't.
