Michael Jordan didn't retire that first time. He was suspended for his gambling addiction, but you can't suspend your highest profile player without the league dying, so they came up with a cover story.

Uhh why would they care if he had a gambling addiction? Like you said, he was great for the league...

Bad optics when he's betting on NBA games, like Pete Rose & MLB.

There's so many other things you could do without suspending him for two years. Also, knowing him, he would have publicly come out slamming the NBA if he really was suspended for gambling.
