Michael Jordan is the best basketball player of all time. A summary of his basketball career and influence on the game can’t explain how good he was. He’s a phenomenal athlete with unique skills of speed, power, artistry, and competitive desire. One of his famous quotes is, “I always believed that if you put in the work, the results will come in.”
Jordan played 15 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA), for the Chicago Bulls and Washington Wizards. In 1984 and 1992, he won Olympic Gold Medal with U.S basketball team. He’s been named NBA Most Valuable Player 7 times! Jordan has 39 awards. He was invisible as “Air Jordan” as part of a sneaker adviserting campaign. “I think Jordan is still famous till now because he is very competitive in everything and was such a great basketball player. He’s also famous for his shoes.” is what Ali Baydoun, an 8th grader who attends Unis Middle School explained.
He attended Laney High School in Wilmington, North Carolina, but as a 5’11 skinny sophomore. He was cut from the varsity team. The summer before his junior year, he grew to 6’3 and began his path to an amazing, athletic NBA player. Now, the main point of this story is, how is Michael Jordon still famous till now? He retired 13 years ago, since 2003. He’s only played for 8 years in the NBA! Mohamed Hamade, an 8th grade student who attends to Unis Middle school stated, “The most interesting thing about Jordan is his dunking skills.”
Another great fact about Jordan is, that he’s still famous after his retirement. He’ll always be known. What kept him famous is his Air Jordan brand. As Forbes puts it, “Nike’s Jordan Brand is a financial juggernaut,” and that’s true. Lots of students at Unis Middle School wear Jordan shoes. Jordan’s are seen everywhere. “The pair of Jordan’s that I think are most popular in Unis Middle School are probably the Retro 1’s. Everybody who likes Jordan’s either has a pair, or had a pair at some point in their lives.” Is what Zahra Hassan stated, an 8th grade student who attends Unis Middle School.
Jordon will always be known for his amazing basketball skills, and for his famous Nike Jordan sneakers. He also has a clothing line. Another student that had something to say was Fouad Bazzi, who also attends Unis Middle School. He explained, “My favorite pair of Jordan’s are the 11’s because they look the best and are most known.”
In conclusion, Jordan ended up being a really successful NBA player. Even though he retired the NBA, he’ll always be known for what he does best, playing competitive on the court. With his branding, people will know him forever. Jordan is a legacy, and his name will always be in the hall of fame.

Jordan is one of the best players in the Nba History over riding with 6 championships he concludes. He retired but then went out of his retirement and came back out in 2004. But he will stay for ever a legend of his own. For the last thing Michael Jordan is the owner of the Charlotte Hornets.
I really liked this article , it had great facts. I liked there choose of words in the began, i feel like it was a really good idea of putting students thoughts in the article. Even though this is a good article there was a mistakes when saying that Michael won 7 MVPS, he has only won 5. Other than that this was a really good article and i liked it i learned some new things about Micheal.

in my opinion Michael Jordan in the best basketball player of all time. He worked extremely hard and its paid off. There are kids all around the world inspired by him. Jordan played 15 seasons in the NBA. He played for the bulls and the wizards. He’s was named the NBA’s (MVP) Most Valuable Player 7 times. Jordan has also won 39 awards during his carrier. He attended Laney High School in Wilmington and North Carolina. Jordan was famous even after he was retired. Jordan grew so popular that he has one of the most successful shoe brands. Micheal Jordan left everything he had on that court and he will be remembered for ages.
Michael Jordan is the best player of all time in the NBA. He accomplished things many people can’t do like dunk from the free throw line. Plus, he didn’t have such a good life he was lucky to be in the NBA. His father died on the day he won a championship game and the game was on fathers day, when MJ found out he ran off the court and bursted into tears while laying on the floor. With stuff like that in his life and he can still ball proves he is the greatest.
I have known Michael Jordan for my whole life. He has inspired me to be good at basketball and try to get to the nba draft. A company has made Jordans because how good Michael Jordan is.
I think Michael Jordan deserves all of the fame people give him because he practices all of the time and practice a lot could get you tired but then it will all pay off. His hardworking effort gave him 7 m.v.p titles, 6 championship rings and an olympic gold medal. I like to support Jordan by buying his shoes and he is my idol and i want to be able to play basketball like him one day.

Jordan is an all time great. He concluded with 6 championships and one of the best records in NBA history. He retired after a bit and came out of it and retired again in 2004. Jordan was a monster even though he didnt make the team in high school, look at what he is now. A champion and a owner of an NBA team. Charlotte Hornets and many more things.
