Michael Jordan’s sublimeness on the basketball court will be forever
remembered. He has become a world wide icon to many basketball fans. He showed
us his skills of the game he loves. The article mentioned one of his great
moments, which was “the jaw-dropping switch-it-from-the- left lay-up against
the Los Angels Lakers in the 1991 finals. (pg. 1) Michael Jordan was not always
“the great Michael Jordan,” we all know and love. He struggled to become the
best early in his career. “When the Bull’s failed to finish over .500 in
Jordan’s first three season’s and didn’t reach the second round of the
playoffs until his forth, there was a widely held belief among players and
reporters that a Jordan-led team would never win it all. He shot too much. He
didn’t get his teammates involved.” Which is mentioned about his early
beginnings. (pg. 2) This was soon proved wrong later in his career. He has shown
us that the Bull’s can win it all and his teammates are involved in the
winning. It was also said in Michael’s early career, he failed to get along
with his teammates. The article mentioned that he “preferred the company of a
collection of close buddies.” He has proven us all wrong. He has often said
that he liked hanging out with his teammates off the court. It is clearly seen
in many pictures of him and his teammates. In conclusion, although Michael
Jordan has retired from the game of basketball, he will not be forgotten by
many. He has shown the world of basketball that he can play his best and be the
best. He might not be making anymore game winning shots but many will still love
his ability to play basketball.
