◆『我已站在世界的顛峰，我已了無憾恨。』

anything else to prove."

think about the consequences you always think of a negative result."

◆『在我一生中，有超過九千球沒投進，輸了快三百場比賽，有26次隊友都相信我
能投進那致勝一球，而我卻失手了。我一而再，再而三的失敗，而這就是我成
功的原因。』
"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career.I've lost almost 300 games.
26times,Ive been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed.I've
failed over and over again in my life.And that is why I succeed."

而喬丹三分球的爆發力也是我前所未見，在喬丹連續投進第六個三分球，他甚至
對Mike和我聳聳肩像在說，沒有辦法我就是那麼準。』——場邊播報員Marv Albert
說
"The Chicago Bull' Michael Jordan's three-point explosion in GameⅠof the
1992 NBA finals against Portland is easily one of the greatest peformance
I have been I've ever seen.As he made his sixth straight,he winked directly
at (broadcast partner) Mike(Fratllo) and me and held his palms up in shrug,
as if to say,'What can I do?'"
