Michael Jordan is a former professional American basketball player,Olympic athlete,businessperson,and actor.Considered one of the best basketball players ever,he dominated (主宰) the sport from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s.
Michael began his professional basketball career when he was chosen by the Chicago Bulls in 1984.Then,there was a time when the Bulls kept adding new players and changing coaches,but they didn't win.Seeing that,Michael felt like he needed to do all the scoring as he couldn't trust the other players' skills.Many people thought that Michael Jordan might never win a championship (冠軍) if he kept trying to do it all by himself.
To improve their performance on the court,Coach Tex Winter taught the Bulls his triangle offense.It included sharing the ball and moving around the court in a specific way.Michael was unsure.He thought he was the only one that could make the big shots.Tex Winter told him he should learn to trust his teammates to make the triangle offense work best.But that was difficult for Michael.
The Bulls faced the Utah Jazz in the 1997 National Basketball Association Finals.After four games,the series was tied 2-2.Finally,Michael scored thirty-eight points and the Bulls won.Then,they had a chance to win the series in Game Six.Michael had the ball near the end of the game with Jazz players swarming(擁 上)around him.Instead of trying a difficult shot,he passed the ball to a teammate,Steve Kerr,who made the winning basket.Michael finally trusted his teammates and he didn't always have to take the big shot.
