Yes, Michael Jordan can dunk. He can also dominate. But he can't do it all.

Jordan scored a game-high 41 points, 16 coming in a spectacular third-quarter outburst that included a driving, right-handed baseline jam.

However, the lack of support when he wasn't on the court was too much for him to overcome -- even though he almost did -- and Washington lost, 102-95, last night to the New Jersey Nets before a sold-out crowd of 20,674 at MCI Center in Washington's only home preseason game.
