My classpresentation is about Michael Jeffrev Jordan.

-I begin with his childhood then his time at university and how he came a player in the NBA then I tell you something about him as a NBA player.

Michael Jordan was born on February 17. 1963 in Brooklyn, New York. Butt his family deciced to move to Willington in North Carolina. Michael had to brothers and two sisters. His dad at a electric plant and his mother had a full time job at a bank. As a child Michael played baseball, basketball and football, When he was 8 years old his favorite sport was baseball, butt later he spent more and more time at the basketball court. In 1978 jordan Michael was dropped out of the basketball team at Laney High School in Willington. But when he grew from 153 till 189 in just 1 and a half year and improved his skill he was on the team again.

When Jordan was finishing his senior year he had grown to 1.95 and attained a basketball scholarship from the University of North Carolina. There his popularity grew after he had scored the winning shot against Georgetown in the National Championship. He’s still wearing his college outfit when he’s playing. He was named college player of the year in both 1983 and 1984. In 1984 he played for the American Olympics Team (until 1992 NBA players where not allowed to play in the Games). Michael and his team won the games with winning all their matches. Two months later the Chicago Bulls drafted him third overall. (Houston- Hakeem Olajuwon and Portland- Sam Bowie).
Draft that’s when NBA teams try to attract college players.

His first year at the Chicago Bulls he immediately gets a nickname: AIR JORDAN because of he could jump and stay about 3 seconds in the air. In his second season he’d broken his foot so he’d missed 64 games, butt he came back to score 63 points in the first play-off game against Boston Celtics. And after that game Larry Bird said something about Jordan:
Maybe it’s God, dressed as Michael Jordan. That explains at bit how gut he was in that playoff. And he continued his gut game and proved him self as the best player of the world. He was the MVP (most valuable player) three times1988, 1991 and 1992, and was also three times NBA champions with the Chicago Bulls. Before he decided to retire from the NBA after the mysterious death of his father. In 1994 he surprised everyone with becoming a professional Baseball player. Butt after a disappointing season he realized that he was not gut enough. So 1995 he decided to return to the Chicago Bulls. In 1996 he led the Bulls to their fourth Championship Title in six years. He also played alongside Buggs Bunny in Space Jam. In 1996 and 1998 won he’s won again the MVP of the NBA. And in 1999 the decided again to retire after winning the Championship for the fifth time. Butts as I think you know he’s back. Now playing for the Washington Wizards. The club where he was before the owner of. He had to sell his ownership and then he could play again. Making in his first season 1 million dollars, butt that money he’s giving away to the victims of the airplane attack on September the 11.

That’s a lot of money you think but if you know what he had made in his basketball career, then it seems almost nothing. By Chicago Bulls he was making 300.000 dollars a game, knowing that a game is nearly 30 minutes. That’s 10.000 dollar for each minute. And he was also making money with advertising-contracts: that was almost 30.000.000 dollars a year.
He now is one of the richest sporters ever.

In his career he won a lot of prizes. He was 2 times Slam dunk Champion, he was Defensive player of the year, he was 10 times selected for the NBA first team, he had two times the Olympic games and he was 5 times MVP of the NBA, and 5 times NBA champion.

So if you see al his stats and prizes you easily say that he was the best basketball player ever.
