When Michael Jordan was younger he had dreams to be the best basket ball player and to join his high school basket ball team but his dreams were crushed because in try outs for his basket ball team in school he didn't make the team so he quit for 3 years and stopped playing basketball...

But at the end Michael Jordan told himself that he could do it! His next tryouts were coming soon so he trained and trained for over 6 years and he finally made it. He finally got on the basketball team. It took him hard work and lots of time and that really helped him out because now he's one of the best basketball players in history. Michael Jordan really tried hard not to experience a lot of adversity. Michael Jordan was on the team Chicago Bulls and he left college to join the NBA 1980s to the late 1990s He led the Chicago Bulls to six National Basketball Association championships, and earned the NBA's Most Valuable Player Award five times.

During the summer in 1984 Michael Jordan made his first appearance at the Olympics as a member of the U.S. Olympic basketball team. Jordan also helped the American team bring home the gold medal at the 1992 Olympic Games..In 1994 Jordan made a James R. Jordan Boys and Girls Club and Family Life Center, named after his father. There are a lot of things from Michael Jordan's life, he was born in Feb 17 1963 and right now Michael Jordan is 53. Michael Jordan did retire from baseball and played golf and baseball for some years but then he went back into basketball and even though he was still really good he just didn't feel the same and didn't play the same as he used to, so he retired and let other new people play and become and make basketball history just like he did.

Michael Jordan's shoe size in men were a 13. And he was known for his really high jumps, he was more known for his ups but he also made lots of 3 pointers. Michael Jordan always wanted to get better and even though he almost gave up he told himself no and became one of the best players in history. Until this day still nobody has beaten Michael Jordan's record. Michael always wanted to help people and get them better. If i could say something to him i would say thank you for all that he's done and all the people that he helped get better and not to give up. Always have hope and faith that you can do anything you believe in and work for.
