- 現在是什麼時刻？ What time is it? - 比賽時刻！呼！ Game time! Whoo!
來自北卡羅來納州... From North Carolina...
身高六尺六的後衛，麥可·喬丹！ at guard, six-six,Michael Jordan!
即使我已經站在世界的巔峰， day after day that I stepped on the basketball court,
但每天當我踏入球場時， even though I was on top of the world,
我覺得我仍有些東西要去證明。 I felt like I had something to prove.
在喬丹的最後一賽季， After Michael Jordan's final season,
NBA聯盟再次頒給他一座最有價值球員的獎項， the NBA gave him yet another Most Valuable Player Award,
據說理由非常簡單： and said the reason is simple：
“在13個賽季後，你仍能每晚站出來， "After 13 seasons,you still go out every night.
而且打得像麥可·喬丹。” and play like Michael Jordan."
當喬丹準備出場時， When Jordan would go out for the spotlight introduction,
他會抬頭看看座位席上， he would look up into the stands and he would realize.
發現那晚起碼有人， that there was at least someone up there that night.
那些素未謀面的，或者不會再見的球迷在那裡， who had never seen him before,who would never see him again.
而此刻是他們擁有喬丹的一個時刻！ And this would be the one Michael Jordan moment...they ever had.
而他會說我是為那些人而戰。 And he would say he was playing for those people there
我們有次連續六場作戰客場， We had a six-game road trip.Michael had some spasms
麥可腰部有些痙攣， in his lower back.
所以我們不得不逐步地，你知道... And we literally had to, you know...
攙扶他下了巴士，再下飛機， carry him off the bus, off the plane to the bus...
再坐巴士去酒店。 from the bus to the hotel.
你知道嗎，嚇了我一跳... You know, it amazed me...
他那晚比賽還砍下了40分。 He went out and got 40 points that night.
他就是這種球員。他想要大家看到他的精彩球技， This is the kind of player he was. He wanted everybody to see his special skill，
他不想讓那些喜愛籃球的觀眾沒有這種機會。 And he didn't want people who loved basketball...not to have that opportunity.
當季後賽開始， When the playoffs began,
麥可心裡已經知道， in his heart Michael already knew.
那可能會是他最後的幾場比賽， that these would be his last games，
但這不會是懷舊的告別演出賽， But this would be no nostalgic farewell tour，
他決心以自己 He was determined to go out on his own terms
...冠軍的姿色站出來。 ...as a champion.
公牛隊第一輪的對手是年輕，充滿朝氣的 the Bulls' first-round opponents were the New Jersey Nets
新澤西網隊。 young and full of hope.
麥可統治了比賽！ Michael was dominant!
公牛三場橫掃對手， It was a three-game sweep,
建立了堅韌的心志，對等於身體的才能。 built on mental toughness as much as physical talent.
而對於麥可,心靈的成長旅程 And for Michael, the way to develop the mind
則總是刻骨銘心的！ had always been through the heart!
許多家長問我， A lot of parents ask me,
“呃，你能給我的孩子一些建議嗎？” "Well, what advice would you give my kids?"
而我的建議就是:“讓他們享受球賽。” And my advice would be let them just enjoy the game.
我認為他們年輕的時候該學的 I think what they have to learn more about at that young age...is
是對球賽的熱愛 their love for the game.
一旦他們培養了那種興趣，心理關就容易多了。 And once they've developed that, then the mental part is easy.
我直到高中時才認識到這一點。 I didn't really get instruction until I was a junior in high school.
最初時，我只是喜歡球賽，自由發展我的技術。 First, I just loved the game and I let my skills develop.
所以我相信遲點再學 So I believe in learning late.
先玩然後再學。 playing early, but learning late.
麥可對球賽的熱愛 Michael's love of the game was born...
是整個下午都耗在北卡羅來納州，他老家威明頓 in his hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina...
的球場上產生的。 during long afternoons on the play grounds.
在後院裡，在他們"史詩般"一對一的戰鬥中， His older brother, Larry, helped Michael hone his game...
他的哥哥，賴瑞，幫助麥可磨練他的球技。 n their epic battles of one-on-one at their backyard hoop.
而麥可第一次深刻的經驗教訓 But Michael's first hard lesson
是在他嘗試成為蘭尼高中的校隊時。 would come when he tried out for the varsity team at Laney High.
當我還是個高中二年級學生時， When I was a sophomore in high school.
像大多數高中生一樣， like most high school kids.
你把所有的精力，所有的動力，和激情 you get all the energy and all the motivation and excitement...
都注入成為校隊的事情上，那是件大事。 of making your varsity team, which is a big thing.
名氣在學校很重要。 Status is a lot when you're in high school.
所以你可以想像我有多失望。 So you can imagine the disappointment that I got...
當我覺得我應該能進入校隊， I felt like I should have made the team,
卻沒能進入校隊。 but then didn't make the team.
我哭了，情緒完全失控。 I'm crying, I lost my emotions totally.
而我母親則過來對我說， My mother came to me and said,
“用那精力向你的教練，同齡人和同學證明， "Use that energy to prove to the coach and to your peers and your classmates，
他們犯了個錯誤。” that they made a mistake."
你付出你最好的表現， You give it your best.
你這麼努力地去得分， You try so hard and you get to the point.
我知道我做的到。 I know I can do it.
而如果你再試一次，你就有可能成功， And if you try one more time, you are able to achieve it.
那就更進一步。 It's going one step farther.
那就是不放棄， That's not giving up,
那就是盡你最大的努力。 it's giving your best.
當我知道我不能作貢獻時，我會選擇走開。 I only will walk away when I know I do not have anything else to give.
失望是那麼的深，像一個傷口， The disappointment was so deep, like a cut,
它也讓我重燃鬥志， it struck the fire in me.
使我不會再次忍受那種痛苦。 to make sure that I never endure that type of pain again.
在季後賽的第二輪， In the second-round of the playoffs.
麥可帶著復仇之心回到家鄉。 Michael returned home with a vengeance.
迎戰夏洛特黃蜂隊， Playing the Charlotte Hornets,
這可能會是麥可最後一次在北卡羅來納州職業出賽了。 it would be Michael's last professional appearance in North Carolina.
回到家鄉總是感覺很好...當你在這長大， It's always been a treat to come back home...when you've grown up here
然後去到外面依靠自己的能力成為一位人物，再回來 and you go out and become a man on your own，And then come back home
展示已經不同的你。 to show what's evolved of that person.
對於那些從他是北卡學生就看著喬丹的球迷來說， For fans who had watched him since his days as a Carolina schoolboy,
現在呈現的不僅是他的技巧還有他的意志力。 what emerged now was not just the skill but the will power.
那些記得喬丹的潛能的球迷， Those who remembered his raw potential.
現在看到了一生努力的成果。 now saw the results of a lifetime of hard work.
他先進二隊並努力練習， He would go to JV practice and practice,
之後他就去正隊練習了(即他成為了正選)。 and then he'd go to varsity practice.
我們打比賽，比賽結束後， We'd play ball games, and after the games were over,
他則做我們稱為所謂的"自殺"或跑底線... he'd run what we called "suicides"or line drills...
就他一個人在那裡跑。 he'd run those by himself.
那時我就驚歎他那種， I just marveled at his work habits even then.
將所有都注入競爭的習性， With his competitiveness to go with all that dedication,
你知道，值得一看。 you know, it was something to see.
麥可在進攻端最弱的是他的跳投。 The weakest part of Michael's game on the offensive end was his shooting.
而他顯然知道些... So he obviously mastered something...
每個人都說他大學出來後也做不好。 that everybody said he couldn't do when he came out of college.
於是他不斷地跳投，跳投，跳投，連續地跳投。 And he did it by shooting and shooting and shooting and shooting consistently.
另外人們說他不是個很好的防守球員， The other thing that people told him that he wasn't a really good defensive player.
而他找到了方法 And he found a way
不僅變成了一位偉大的防守球員 not only to become a great defensive player
還成為了NBA最佳防守球員。 but the best defensive player in the NBA.
這個傢夥說，“那些是我的弱點， This guy said, "Those are my weaknesses,
我要把它們變為我的強項”而且他做到了！ I'm going to figure out how to make those my strengths." And he did it!
當第一次我帶他時， I got a glimpse, really, of Michael Jordan...
我瞄了麥可.喬丹一眼，真的。 and what he was all about the first time ever coached him.
差不多還有兩分鐘，我叫了個暫停， About two minutes to go in the game, I called a time-out.
我們落後兩分... 比賽僵持不下。 And we were down two... it was right there in the balance.
我在嚼口香糖,嘴邊沾了些殘渣。 And I had some little powder on my mouth
我嚼得太大力了， from where I chewed some gum and chewed it so hard
以致嘴角真的起了泡泡。 that it really had become powder.
而麥可拿了杯水遞給我， And Michael grabbed a cup of water and he handed it to me,
他說，“喝點水， and he said, "Take a drink of this water.
把你嘴角的東西清理掉。 Clear that stuff off your mouth.
我不會讓你輸掉你的第一場比賽的。” I'm not going to let you lose your first game."
人生中有關任何事情的信念 The level of faith that I have in anything in life
是授自于你的父母。 is taught to you from your parents.
它是一種我不會用任何事物交換的特性！ It is a trait that I would never trade anything for!
如果我能傳遞些什麼給我孩子的話... And if I can ever pass anything on to my kids...
那會是對生活中任何事物的樂觀態度。 it would be to be optimistic about everything in life.
他那時只個是北卡羅來納州大學的新生， He was only a freshman at the University of North Carolina,
但是在1982年NCAA冠軍賽的危急關頭時， but with the 1982 NCAA Championship at stake,
球隊的命運系於喬丹之手,而他卻從未遲疑過。 his team's fate was in his hands, and he never hesitated.
回傳給喬丹,左側中距離跳投！ Goes back to Michael Jordan, jumper from out on the left!
北卡即將贏得NCAA冠軍！ The Tar Heels are going to win the national championship!
在我投中那一球之後，我父親過來對我說， After I hit the shot, my father came to me and said.
這是偉大旅程的開始。 this was the start of something big.
他不知那是什麼，我也不知那是什麼， He didn't know what it was. I didn't know what it was.
不過我真的相信他。 But I did believe him.
早上好，女士們先生們， Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
歡迎來到23號航班。 Welcome to flight 23.
請確認系好安全帶... Please make sure your seat belts are securely fastened...
並熄滅所有冒煙之物。 and extinguish all smoking materials.
麥可來時， Michael came along at a time...
正值世界全球化， when globalization really was occurring.
也正是媒體爆炸的時代， and an explosion in media was occurring.
而他正好助長了那爆炸。 And he helped drive that explosion.
嘿，麥可，是什麼讓你成為世界上最好的球員呢？ Yo, Mike, what makes you the best player in the universe?
是你的髮型？ Is it the haircut?
不是，瑪斯。 No, Mars.
是這雙鞋？ Is it the shoes?
有很多事物因他而大受歡迎。 There have been so many things that he has popularized.
這短褲，這雙鞋，“一定是這雙鞋。” The shorts, the shoes, "Must be the shoes."
一定是這雙鞋！鞋！鞋！ Money, it's got to be the shoes! Shoes! Shoes!
我覺得麥可已經超越了所有 I think Michael has transcended every boundary
性別、種族、年齡，和運動的界限。 of gender and race and age and sport.
我想他已成為我們日常文化的一部份了。 I think he's become of apart of our everyday culture.
在職業生涯中我錯失了9000多球... I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career...
在我看來他之所以能成為一位如此獨特的商業標誌， I think what made him so special as a marketing icon
是因為那是他本性天生的。 is that he was natural.
今天，當人們真的嘗試模仿麥可， Today, when everyone really tries to be like Mike,
或努力地去刻造一個傳奇人物 they're trying so hard to invent a persona,
我想人們可以看得出來， I think that people see through that.
那是經不起時間的考驗，站不住腳的。 and it doesn't stand the test of time.
在我人生中我不斷失敗，失敗，不停地失敗， I've failed over and over and over again in my life,
那就是我成功的原因。 and that is why I succeed.
大家下午好，再次歡迎 。 Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome once again.
來到公牛隊季後賽... the Bulls basketball. playoff basketball...
我們把目光轉移到東區決賽... as we move to the Eastern Conference Finals...
公牛隊和印第安那溜馬隊。 the Bulls and the Indiana Pacers.
在常規賽兩隊各勝兩場， These two teams were two and two in the regular season.
但是真正的對抗開始於星期天下午的芝加哥。 But the rivalry really begins on a Sunday afternoon in Chicago.
米勒和喬丹，都是骨子裡 Miller and Jordan and a cast of characters
非贏不可的角色。 that is not afraid to win.
麥可，滑了一下，摔倒了，起來切入禁區， Here's Michael, slips and falls down, gets back up into the lane,
跳出包夾，後仰，出手，精彩！ hops through, falls, fires on the rim and it's good!
而印第安那溜馬隊 The Indiana Pacers
帶著外線投籃和強硬的打法， with their outside shooting and the physical play.
全隊一心地抵抗麥可和公牛隊。 were a team custom-built to defeat Michael and the Bulls.
系列賽的前兩場， In the first two games of the series.
即使公牛隊都贏了， even though the Bulls would win both games.
但是很顯然溜馬隊， it was clear that the Pacers
會亮出他們第一波的真正的考驗。 would pose their first real test.
羅斯收回來，現在，羅斯，球被麥可拍掉， Rose backs in. Now, Rose, stripped by Michael.
傳給哈柏。 To Harper.
哈柏帶球快攻， Harper on the run.
傳給湯尼， 庫科奇又傳給麥可。 Lead pass, Toni, Kukoc to Michael.
喬丹大力扣籃！ He dunks the ball!
哦，天哪！ Oh, my!
接下來的兩場比賽，場地移師到印第安那， For the next two games, the scene shifted to Indiana.
在他們的主場，溜馬依靠他們不知疲倦的後衛， On their home court, the Pacers would win game three
瑞基.米勒，贏得了第三比賽。 behind their tireless guard, Reggie Miller.
球前傳給了馬克·傑克遜， Lead pass ahead for Mark Jackson.
這就是溜馬想要的。 This is what Indiana wants.
他們把球傳給米勒投三分...球進！ They run to Miller for three...got it!
第四場，在最後的幾秒鐘公牛還領先1分， In game four, the Bulls led by a point in the final seconds,
米勒和喬丹又較起勁兒來了。 when Miller and Jordan would square off again.
開始了，邁基在拿球找人。 Here we go.McKey holding, looking.
米勒來到弧頂。 Here comes Miller to the top.
米勒，接球，米勒，看了一下... Miller, a catch. Miller, a look...
他投進了！ he hit it!
瑞基·米勒，將它投進了！ Reggie Miller.knocked it down.
還剩0.4秒。 Four-tenths of a second left.
瑞基！瑞基！瑞基！ Reggie, Reggie, Reggie!
湯尼，發球時間快到了。 Toni, out near the time line.
在看，在看，在看，在看，在看，在看。 Looking, looking, looking, looking, looking, looking.
把球給了麥可， Got it to Michael.
球進了又彈了出來！ And it went in and out!
球打到籃板後又刷框而出，溜馬贏得了比賽。 Hit the board and spun out, and Indiana wins the game.
隨著系列賽2比2打平， With the series tied at two.
而疲憊也在損耗公牛隊。 fatigue was taking its toll on the Bulls.
而同時，在西區， And meanwhile, out West,
由未來名人堂的球員卡爾.馬龍與約翰.斯托克頓領軍， the Utah Jazz were rolling towards the finals.
猶他爵士隊正向總決賽邁進。 Led by future Hall of Famers Karl Malone and John Stockton,
爵士們統治了西區決賽， the Jazz dominated the Western Conference playoffs.
而且還有十天的休息。 and would have ten days' rest.
而公牛隊與溜馬隊還得在東部繼續戰鬥。 while the Bulls and Pacers continued to battle in the East.
公牛隊又輸掉了一場比賽， The Bulls lost another game,
於是多年來不得不第一次打滿七場的系列賽。 and would have to go the full seven in a series for the first time in years.
第六場比賽快要結束時，還有人質疑說， By the end of game six, doubters were saying.
麥可最終會撲個空。 that Michael was finally running on empty.
公牛隊落後兩分， Bulls trail by two.
開始了，喬丹一對一邁基， Here we go.MJ one-on-one with McKey.
麥可突破，絆到自己的腳摔倒了， Michael a drive, tripped off his feet,
邁基搶到了球,溜馬會贏。 and McKey stole the ball, and that's going to do it.
他們會贏。 That will do it.
印第安那會贏得比賽。 Indiana's going to win it.
那晚他可能被打垮了， He may have been devastated that night,
我假設他被打垮了，但他有能力去相信 and I assume he was, but he had the ability to believe...
我們會贏，而且他也會做好。 that we were going to win. And he was going to do well.
可能最為神奇的一投， Probably one of the most remarkable shots.
是大家都記得的喬丹對抗克裡夫蘭的那一球。 that everybody remembers is the shot he made against Cleveland.
發球傳給了喬丹， The in-bounds pass comes in to Jordan.
麥可罰球線附近, Here's Michael at the foul line.
伊洛面前跳投， A shot on Ehlo.
球進啦！ Good!
公牛贏了！ The Bulls win!
他們獲勝了！ They win it!
但是大家不記得， But they don't remember.
之前的晚上，若他不是六罰錯失三罰的話 that the night before, he missed three out of six foul shots.
對我們來說就已經封殺比賽了， that would have sealed the game for us,
而我們也不必打第五場了。 and we wouldn't have had to go to the fifth game.
一位普通的球員會說“哦，我浪費了這個機會， A normal player would have said, "Oh, I cost us this opportunity，
差點就把對手打敗。” and probably beat themselves up over it."
而麥可第二天在去克利夫蘭的巴士上說， Michael, the next day that we played Cleveland got on the bus and said，
“不用害怕，我們會贏得比賽的。” "Have no fear.We're going to win this ball game."
“如果我們就坐在這兒擔心別人怎麼想我們， "If we sit here and worry about what people think of us,
那我們肯定沒有機會。 then we don't have a chance.
他們還得過芝加哥這關。 They still got to come through Chicago.
猶他，印第安那,他們還得過芝加哥這關。 Utah, Indiana, they still got to come through Chicago.
我不在乎今天發生了什麼， I don't care what happens today,
也不在乎其它系列賽的情況， don't care what happened in the other series.
他們都還是得過芝加哥。 They still got to come through Chicago.
我們會贏第七場。” We will win game seven."
印第安那的球，麥可抄截， Indiana the ball.Michael a steal.
喬丹運球快攻，他要扣籃了。 MJ on the run, he will dunk the ball.
麥可正面對著最終的淘汰， Michael was facing the ultimate elimination.
輸球，就會以失敗劃下職業生涯的句點。 lose, and end his career on a note of defeat.
且不管麥可的承諾， Despite Michael's promises,
剛開始時溜馬還領先了13分呢。 the Pacers led by 13 points early on.
於是麥可帶領公牛隊重整旗鼓。 Then Michael led the Bulls on a furious rally.
喬丹，防守鬆了，突破，扣籃，還犯規啦！ He's loose, driving, and dunks the ball, and a foul!
那就是帶領公牛隊 It was the kind of run that had led the Bulls
贏得前五次冠軍的動力。 to their five previous championships.
不過比賽還有一半要打。 But there was still a half of basketball to play.
你來到的是東區決賽，第七場， You were in the conference finals.In the seventh game,
我們是以落後的分數 we were down
進入第四節的。 going into the fourth quarter.
我以為也許...也許就是這樣。 And I thought maybe...maybe this is it.
也許這就是我們最後的歡呼了。 maybe we've had the last hurrah.
但在我們英雄的帶領下，球員士氣開始高漲。 But something rose up in these players, led by our hero.
他是那種肯為你跳下橋 He's the type of man that could get you to jump off a bridge
或者至少會考慮幾分鐘的人。 or at least think about it for a few seconds.
他擁有一種要完成使命的意志力， He has such a will to accomplish a mission.
每個人都追隨他。 that everyone follows him.
麥可回到弧頂， Michael back to the top.
現在換防回對邁基。 and now the switch made back by McKey.
麥可到禁區，跳起傳給路克， Michael to the lane, jumped out to Luc.
17尺...命中！ 17-footer...bang!
進展順利！ Down the well it goes.
喬丹帶球前進，傳給科爾投三分， MJ on the run, to Kerr for three.
科爾！ Kerr!
喬丹... MJ...
後仰跳投精彩！ Fall away jumper shot is good!
還犯規啦！ And a foul!
在比賽最後的幾分鐘他們的腳可能累了， They may have had tired legs,
但是麥可和公牛隊成長得更加強大。 but Michael and the Bulls grew stronger in the game's final minutes.
公牛隊獲勝，88比83。 Bulls win, 88-83.
公牛隊再次挺進總決賽！ They go to the finals again.
麥可，你累死了吧，對嗎？ Michael, you're a tired man, aren't you?
我簡直是虛脫了，但那才能帶領我們邁向我們的目標。 I'm exhausted. But that's what it took to get to where we had to go.
我是說，每個人得放手一搏， I mean, everybody had to leave it on the floor.
沒有第二次機會，那是最後一支舞了， it's no tomorrow, it's the last dance,
所以我們必須全力以赴。 so we got to give everything we got.
猶他休息了，你們卻筋疲力盡， They're rested, you guys are fatigued,
但是我知道你們會在星期三準備好迎戰的。 but I know you'll be ready to play on Wednesday.
我們的心志不累， Our hearts are not fatigued.
那是最重要的事情。 That's the most important thing.
好的，麥可，精彩的比賽。 All right, Michael, great job.
在他最後的退出之前 Before making his final exit,
麥可還得再次出現在聚光燈下。 Michael had to take one more walk through the spotlight.
如果你和喬丹一起走在人群中， If you walk through a crowd with Jordan,
你看到他所看到一樣的東西，你看到所有目光聚集， you see the same thing he sees. you see all the eyes aiming in.
於是我問，“你在人群之中看到了什麼？” And I asked, "What do you see in the crowd?"
而他說，“有時候，我見到一個父親和一個孩子。” And he said, "Sometimes,I'll see a father and a son.
“他們也許沒有覺得我注意到他們，” "They may not think I've even noticed them,
喬丹說，“但有時會有，” but sometimes,"Jordan will say,
“我想他們不知我是多麼想像他們一樣。” "I wonder if they have any idea how much I'd like to be them."
昨晚一開始的新聞， Last night we began the show.
是喬丹父親失蹤的消息。 with the disappearance of Michael Jordan's father.
今晚，最嚴重的擔心還是發生了。 Tonight, the worst fears have come true.
詹姆斯·喬丹被發現時已身亡... James Jordan was found dead...
謀殺案的受害者。 the victim of an apparent murder.
當我父親去世時，我已擁有他32年了。 When my father died,I had him for 32 years.
我很幸運， I was very lucky,
我把它看成是件幸運的事兒， I looked at it as being lucky,
並不因他已經不在了而沮喪， not as being disappointed that he wasn't around anymore.
我覺得幸運的是當我需要他時他在。 I was lucky that he was there when I needed him.
他影響了我人生對一些情況的看法， that he could influence my life to look at situations.
到今天我用以幫助自己做決定。 that I use to help make my decisions to this day.
有些小孩甚至從沒父親。 Some kids never have Dad.
當然，現在我也想擁有他，但是， Sure, I would love to have him now, but.
人們來到這地球是有原因的，而且你在這享用人生， people are put on this earth for a reason,and you utilize the time that you're here.
你永遠不知何時那會被奪走。 You never know when that's going to be taken away from you.
那是他教會我的， That's one thing he taught me.
而當你活著，或他人活著， But while he's here, or while they're here,
就應當對某些人的人生產生影響， they should make an impact on someone's life.
而他對我的人生產生了影響。 And he made an impact on my life.
你會得到的，夥計！ You're going to get it, man!
這是回報你把我帶到世上的。 That's for bringing me into this world.
在第三個冠軍後 After the third championship,
我父親曾暗示我去打棒球， my father kept kind of hinting towards me playing baseball.
“不要打籃球了， "Stop playing basketball.
為何不嘗試打棒球呢？” Why don't you give your baseball a shot?"
因為那才是最初他真正教我玩的（運動） Because that's what he actually got me started playing.
六歲大時我打棒球， when I was six years old I played baseball.
而他也覺得我能打棒球， And he felt that I could play baseball.
用打籃球相同的信念和態度 and do it with the same conviction and attitude.
去打棒球。 that I played basketball.
每天，在太陽升起之前的第一個人會是喬丹， Everyday, the first person there before the sun would be Jordan.
而他這麼早在那兒因為是他不夠好。 And he was there because he wasn't good.
他會和打擊教練一起， He would work with a batting instructor.
訓練一整天， and work all day long.
而他也是每晚最後離開的人。 and be the last person to leave every night also.
三振出局！ Strike three!
那小子真爛 Money's no Stan Musial.
但他在嘗試呀。 But he's trying.
說，嘿，他又不是威利梅斯（電影大聯盟中的球員之一） Say, hey, he's no Willie Mays.
但是他有努力呀，夥計。 But he's trying, man.
打棒球讓我學到的是：別害怕去嘗試。 What it did teach me was, don't be afraid to try.
能發生的最嚴重的事兒 The worst thing that can happen
就是你想像的道路走不通罷了， is it doesn't... it doesn't pan out the way that you envision it.
但是至少你要試試看。 But at least you know that by giving it a shot.
人們都說， People were basically saying.
我不應出現在這項運動， that I didn't have no reason being in the sport,
還有我使這項運動變低級了。 and I was degrading the sport.
當這些負面的東西開始發生時， When those negative things started to happen,
唯一的事情是，我希望我父親在， the only thing，I wish my father was there.
給我一些我積極的幫助。 to give me the positive reinforcements that I needed.
我問他早晨感覺怎樣。 I asked him what it was like for him in the morning.
他說，我在太陽升起前起來， And Jordan said, I get up before the sun comes up,
我幫自己弄了點早餐， and I make myself some breakfast by myself.
他一個人去到那， he was down there alone.
我上到車， and I get in the car.
開車去春訓， And I'm driving to spring training,
路上還沒有半個人。 and there's no one, really, out on the roads yet.
而我看看旁邊的座位看見我父親， And I look at the seat next to me and I see my Dad,
我跟他說， and I talk to him.
“我自己在想，老爸！我們要一起練習” "I think to myself, Pop, we're doing this. We're doing this together."
一天快結束了， And the day would end,
而他會和打擊教練說， and he would say to the batting instructor,
“我們可以再多練一會嗎？ "Can we do a little more?
我覺得我開始上手了， I think I'm getting this.
我覺得我有學到，我覺得我開始上手了” I think I'm learning this, I think I'm getting this."
而就那時運動畫刊則以他做為封面， And that's when Sports Illustrated put him on the cover.
寫著“喬丹羞辱了棒球！” saying that Michael Jordan has embarrassed baseball!
而每晚我會看他， And as I would watch him there every night.
太陽快要下山時，其他球員都離開後， as the sun was going down and the other ball players had left,
我看到這夥計做得更好了， and I would see this guy working to get better.
麥可.喬丹做得更好了。 Michael Jordan working to get better.
我不禁會想到如果你也有孩子， I couldn't help thinking that if you ever have children,
你應該祈禱某天他們長大， you ought to pray that they grow up someday.
會讓你這樣難堪。 to embarrass you like this.
麥可·喬丹... Michael Jordan...
擊出了飛球。 hits a fly ball.
我想經驗的本身有種動力 I think that experience itself kind of gave him a blessing
使他重回籃壇， of coming back to basketball.
還有他對他在比賽場上的天賦的理解 and understanding the gift that he'd been given for this game.
是那麼的特別。 that was so special.
當麥可回來， When Michael came back,
我和雅德開車去比賽， and Jud and I were driving down to the game,
我問，“雅德，你知道，菲爾讓麥可首發嗎？” and I said, "Jud, you know, does Phil start Michael?
“我意思是，他已經離開賽場，你知道，60，65場了。” I mean, he hasn't been here for, you know, 60 games, 65 games."
而雅德看著我說， And Jud looked at me and he said,
“史蒂夫，一般來說， "Steve, as a general rule,
當你在球場外有自己的塑像的話， when you have your own statue outside the stadium,
你就不用坐板凳了。” you don't come off the bench."
毫無疑問，還有其他偉大的球員， There'll be other great players, there's no question about that.
但是他對比賽所做的一切， But what he's done for the game.
我不認為有人能到像他這麼偉大。 I don't think anybody will touch his greatness.
那就是為何大家比賽結束後還是在那， and that's why everybody's holding on here in the finish.
參與其中，如果這真是他的最後一賽季， to just be apart of，if this is the last run,
每一人都願參與其中見證那一刻。 everybody wants to be apart of it and witness it.
公牛隊曾五次打入總決賽， The Bulls had gone to the finals five times,
而且五次他們都贏了。 and five times they had won.
事實上這可能是麥可最後的機會， The fact that this might be Michael's last chance.
使得這次決賽最具期待性。 made these finals the most anticipated ever.
爵士隊依靠常規賽的戰績獲得主場優勢， The Jazz had earned the home court advantage on the strength of their regular season.
而今，世界目光都聚集 And now, the world tuned in
見證麥可能否突破逆境， to see if Michael could beat the odds.
最後再贏一次。 and win one last time.
麥可轉身，跳起，出手，得分！ Michael circles, spins, hangs, fires, scores!
在第一場，公牛把爵士帶入了加時賽， In game one, the Bulls took the Jazz into overtime.
但最後，精力充沛的爵士隊獲勝了。 But in the end, fresher legs prevailed.
雖然去年猶他輸了 The previous year, although Utah had lost,
但他們向自己證明， they had proven to themselves.
他們能與公牛隊抗衡， that they could play with the Bulls.
而且他們贏了第一場， and then they win game one.
我以為猶他會成為總冠軍呢。 I thought Utah was going to be the NBA champions.
當人們，在某些方面，不期待你贏， When everybody, in some ways, didn't expect me to win,
你成功的機會很渺茫， and the odds are stacked against you.
在生命中你曾經是個失敗者， And for once in your life, you are the underdog.
你知道，對我來說那是很美好的。 You know, that was beautiful for me.
當他最需要它時，在他豎起冠軍旗幟的過程中， When he needed it most, Michael didn't find comfort
麥可發現並沒有那麼容易， in the championship banners he helped raise.
而是比之前七年的勝利需要更多的耐力 But rather strength from the seven years of defeat that came before.
那是一條漫長的道路。 That was a long road.
它使我整個夏天待在體育館，鍛煉自己的技術， It kept me in the gym in the summer, working on my skills.
努力嘗試成為我能成為的最好的球員。 trying to be the best basketball player I could become.
但在同時，為了給有著相同精神韌性 But at the same time,to show players who were not on the same level.
卻不同能力的球員示範， with the same mental toughness.
如果我要去做， that, if I'm going to do this,
你就不得不得跟上節奏。 then you have to keep up with the pace.
靜靜地，它就開始轉變， And quietly, it started to turn.
他是你最努力的工作者，他每天都在比拼。 He was your hardest worker. He competed everyday.
帶動你的整個球隊進步，像一位教練一樣。 That filtered down through your team, so as a coach.
你從不需談論你球隊的職業道德， you never had to talk about the work ethic of your team.
因為你最好的球員總會做榜樣。 because your best player always brought that.
對於許多他的舊隊友來說 Michael's standards were too high...
麥可的標準很高， for many of his early teammates.
不過之後史考蒂.皮朋來了， but then came Scottie Pippen.
麥可對史考蒂.皮朋的影響幾乎從第一天就開始了。 The influence of Michael on Scottie Pippen was almost from day one.
麥可常在球場上協助他， Michael kind of helped him get out there on the basketball court.
教他一些小事情，一些他用的小技巧， and taught him some little things. some of the small tricks that he'd use.
結果，他們倆配合得真的很好。 As a consequence, the two of them really played well together.
毋庸置疑，就像遊俠傳奇一樣， It was the Lone Ranger and Tonto.There's no doubt about it.
皮朋憑藉自己的努力成為了一位明星， Pippen became a star in his own right.
於是我們有了精兵強將。 and then there was the supporting cast.
麥可不屈不撓地挑戰，知道當他們倆的時刻來臨時要準備好。 that Michael would challenge relentlessly, knowing that they two had to be ready when their moment came.
他知道每個人在比賽中必須得分擔， He understood the fact that everybody had to share in the game,
而他也願意成為這其中的一部份， and that he was willing to be part of this.
為此他會犧牲一些屬於自己的比賽， to sacrifice some of his own game for that.
那是非常重要的事情。 was the most important thing.
他走開後，我會準備好。 He comes off, I'll be ready.
我獲得了較多的上場機會， I've gotten a chance to play a lot,
在重要的比賽中打很長時間 and play a lot in big games.
而我也感覺到了壓力，我覺得， And I felt the pressure, I think,
我可能表現得不那麼好 and didn't perform that well.
我學著如何與麥可打比賽和投入關鍵球， And I learned how to play with Michael and how to hit big shots,
如何在那種局面放鬆自己。 and how to relax myself in situations like that.
麥可，陷入包夾，傳給科爾。 Michael, in traffic, to Kerr.
15尺...進了！ 15-footer... Yeah!
多麼美好的經驗啊，你知道，能經歷， What a great experience, you know, to go through,
不僅僅是為了籃球，還有是為了以後的人生， not just for basketball, but for the rest of my life.
知道自己能夠面對那些挺難的， To know that I can face something.
些事情，而且能應對它。 that's pretty difficult, and deal with it.
回到猶他， Back in Utah.
爵士隊還是如首勝時一樣頑強， the buzz was still about the Jazz's series opening victory.
但在第二場比賽開始後， But by the time game two had begun,
第一場已成為麥可和公牛隊的過去了。 game one was history to Michael and the Bulls.
如果麥可樂於當弱者， If Michael enjoyed being the underdog,
他就不會讓他隊友感到它們是一個團隊，帶著美好的理想 he never let his team feel like one, driving them forward
和冠軍的自信鞭策他們前進。 with the fair and confidence of a champion.
公牛隊贏得了第二場比賽， The Bulls won game two,
而現在比賽將移師芝加哥，1:1。 and now the series would move to Chicago, tied at one.
我很樂於見到有人能打敗喬丹四次, I'd have to see someone beat Michael Jordan four times,
因為，我說過，要那樣做你得肢解他， because, I said, to do that you're going to have to dismember him.
你得要砍下他的一隻手和一隻腳， You're going to have to take an arm and leg,
如果你要把他拖到地板上， and you're going to have to drag him off the floor.
他也不會輕易服從。 He's not going to go easily.
這可能會是麥可在芝加哥最後的幾場比賽了， These would be Michael's last games in Chicago.
而第三場比賽打起來就像是感謝球迷的表演賽。 And game three played out like a thank-you note to the fans.
芝加哥以96-54贏得第三場比賽 Chicago's 96-54 win in game three was the biggest rout.
是在NBA總決賽歷史上最大的比分差距。 in NBA finals history.
公牛隊離冠軍還剩兩場勝利。 The Bulls were two games away from the title.
人們都說我們的身體疲憊。 People say a lot of things about our physical tiredness,
但是我們的精神強韌。 but our mental toughness is there.
我認為那是不容忽視的。 And I don't think that should ever be over looked.
好的，開始了。 Okay, here we go.
好的，加油！ Okay, let's go!
在統治了第三場比賽後， After dominating game three,
公牛隊的身體韌性在第四場比賽受到考驗。 the Bulls' physical resilience would be tested in game four
史考蒂找人。 Scottie looks.
傳給了麥可...MJ Dumps it to Michael...MJ
轉身走底線， And turns base line.
後仰跳投...得分！ Fall away jumper...good!
多麼完美的弧線！ What a rainbow that was.
庫科奇傳給麥可， Kukoc drops to Michael.
喬丹底線轉身，跳起得分 MJ spins along the base line, goes up and scores.
庫科奇在找人，在找人，在找人。 And Kukoc looking, looking, looking.
看到了麥可，他接球，運了兩下，轉身，勾射， Look to Michael. He catches, two dribbles, spins in, scoops.
進了！ and scores!
公牛又贏得一場勝利， Another win for the Bulls.
冠軍之路僅一場勝利之遙了。 The countdown to the championship had reached one.
三勝一負， Three-one.
你覺得你們是居於劣勢嗎？ Do you still feel like you guys are the underdogs?
不，我們現在掌控大局。 No, we're in the driver's seat right now.
還有，你知道，我們得出來， and, you know, we just have to come out.
準備打下一場比賽， ready to play next game,
然後，你知道，把冠軍獎盃拿回來。 and, you know, try to put it away.
在第五場比賽之前，慶祝就已經開始了。 Before game five, the celebration had already begun.
我可以問你嗎，這在IMAX的螢幕上看起來有多大？ Can I ask you, how big does that look on IMAX?
像是在IMAX的螢幕上巨桶爆米花嗎？ Does look like a gigantic bucket of popcorn on an IMAX screen?
它像是整座山一樣,夥計。 It's a whole mountain of it, folks.
好了，各位。 All right, baby.
加油，夥計。 Come on, man.
全力以赴。 all for the heart.
在籃球場上全力表現。 and lay it out on the basketball court.
當我們從球場走出來時， When we come out of the court,
我們都在慶祝了，而喬也將會高興的。 we're all celebrating, and joe's going to be happy.
讓我們上場吧，各位！ Let's go, baby.
在真正的慶祝之前， Before there was anything to really celebrate,
卡爾·馬龍與爵士隊找到了 Karl Malone and the Jazz found an answer
對付公牛隊做的每一動作的答案。 to every move the Bulls made.
第五場，公牛隊輸了。 In game five, the Bulls came up empty,
而麥可最後一次走出聯合中心。 and Michael walked out of the United Center for the last time.
第二天回到猶他練習時， Back in Utah for practice the following day,
輸球的事兒已被拋諸腦後， the defeat was already forgotten,
因為自從麥可的第一次冠軍 for here was another secret to the spell Michael had held...
他還擁有另一個聯盟其他球隊 over the rest of the league.
所沒有的秘訣。 ever since his first championship.
即使當公牛隊的身體狀況不是很好， Even when the Bulls weren't superior physically,
他們還有心靈上的哲理優勢。 they had a philosophical edge.
我想菲爾對於“禪”做了很多的研究， I think Phil had a lot to do with that with his Zen practice.
他將所有的情感方式都注入球賽中。 His whole emotional approach to a game of basketball
我曾跟過許多不同的教練， I've experienced a lot of different coaches,
但是他從一個完全不同框架， but he gave me the understanding about life...
讓我瞭解人生的意義。 in a whole different frame.
我認為他對禪學的理解是 I think his teaching toward the understanding of Zen Buddhism is
教導你如何認知你自己。 how you view yourself.
去應對你生活環境中的現實情況， to deal with the realities of life surrounding you,
不知怎麼的能把一場簡單的籃球賽 and somehow be able to correlate that.
聯繫起來。 to a simple game as basketball.
這是我們討論過很多次的 This is something that we talked about a lot
作為一支球隊 as a basketball team,
如何在那些可能發生的任何事情的時刻做出應對。 is about how to be in the moment being able to visualize what might happen in those times.
麥可深信這些， Michael so embraced this,
而我也覺得那是他比賽的魅力， and I think that was the beauty of his game,
就是他有那些能力去調整， is that he had all these abilities to adjust,
不會硬是實行他預定的想法。 not force his own predetermined idea,
當那些事情在他的比賽中發生。 but allow those things to come together for his game.
我傾向冷靜，事情發展變得緩慢， I tend to be calm, things tend to slowdown.
當我碰到一個大家無法預測的情況時， As I go into situations that people don't know the outcome,
我已經在心裡體驗一遍了， I've already experienced them in my mind.
和自己玩一次先。 just playing tricks with myself.
所以它對我而言並不新鮮而我也不怕沒能戰勝它。 So it didn't seem new to me and I wasn't afraid to fail with it.
一旦我開始理解那些， Once I began to understand that,
我便成為一位籃球大師了。 I became a master of the game of basketball.
在猶他的第六場， Game six in Utah.
對公牛隊來說，一場勝利就意味著冠軍。 for the Bulls, a win would mean the championship.
對麥可而言，那會是他傳奇的繼續鞏固。 For Michael, it would mean the cementing of his legacy.
哈柏在看左邊，不是那兒...吊高球， Harper looking left, not there...backdoor lob.
麥可跳起上籃得分！ Michael goes up and scores!
由於史考蒂.皮朋的背傷， The Bulls were still feeling the effects of game five.
公牛隊仍受到第五場的影響。 as a bad back grounded Scottie Pippen.
皮朋摔倒了但他努力站了起來， Pippen knocked down and he's struggling to get back up.
作擋拆，麥可跳起，投藍，得分！ Sets a screen. Michael hangs in the air. His jumper, good!
在芝加哥，球迷擠滿了麥可·喬丹的餐廳， In Chicago, fans filled Michael Jordan's restaurant,
而聯合中心也湧進了23000名忠實的球迷。 and 23,000 of the faithful filled the United Center.
回到猶他，麥可執行著自己的想法， Back in Utah, Michael was operating on his own.
爵士隊著名的團隊合作頻頻奏效， the celebrated teamwork of the Jazz was clicking,
卡爾.馬龍和約翰.斯托克頓掌控了比賽。 and Karl Malone and John Stockton took charge of the game.
在一個疲憊不堪的季後賽後， After a grueling post-season,
公牛隊已經跟不上爵士隊了。 the Bulls could no longer match up with the Jazz man for man.
帶著第四節的領先，爵士人們感覺到 With a fourth-quarter lead, the Utah crowd sensed
勝利隨著每一球都拉得越來越近了。 victory drawing closer with every basket.
對於公牛隊，最後一位戰士依然屹立不倒努力拉回比賽。 For the Bulls，the last man standing clawed his way back into the game.
加油！公牛隊！ Come on, Bulls!
進攻時間還有7秒，6秒，5秒。 Seven on the shot box, six, five.
麥可決定自己來。 Now Michael's got to do it himself.
喬丹假動作，假動作，跳起， Jordan backing, backing, pumping,
後仰，投籃，命中！ falling, firing, scores!
還犯規了，哦，天哪！ And a foul! Ohh, my!
哈柏回傳外線， Harper backing outside.
麥可出手，再度命中三分！ Michael firing, sticks another three!
他幾乎打滿了比賽的每一分鐘， He had played nearly every minute of the game,
而得分超過他隊友的一半。 and scored more than half of his team's points.
但是在第四節的後期， But late in the fourth quarter,
麥可最後似乎努力得不行了， Michael finally seemed worn out by his efforts.
他的命中率開始下滑。 and his shots faltered.
霍納塞克帶球， Hornacek running.
霍納塞克投三分，命中！ Hornacek for three.Got it!
但麥可仍未放棄，不斷投籃， Still Michael kept coming, kept shooting,
繼續站到罰球線上，使公牛隊緊咬差距。 kept getting to the line, kept the Bulls in the game.
你能做到的！四連冠！ You can do it! Four championships in a row!
一切就像是他一直以來所做的 It was as if everything he had ever accomplished.
而帶領他進入了這種時刻。 had led Michael to this one moment.
在比賽最後的一分鐘， And in the final minute of the game,
喬丹職業生涯的最後一分鐘， at the final minute of his career,
他需要拿出他一路上所學一切。 he would need everything he had learned along the way.
皮朋在找人，快到發球時限時傳給了麥可。 Pippen looking，dump to Michael near the time line.
MJ對羅素。 MJ at Russell.
麥可一個突破，上籃得分！ Michael a drive, and the lay-up is good.
麥可的一個突破上籃 A driving lay-up by Michael.
使公牛隊落後1分，86-85 draws the Bulls to within one, 86-85.
現在你有機會在這結束它了。 And now you got a chance for a stop here.
丹尼斯和卡爾去到低位， Dennis and Karl are going to get down on the post,
他們會做些必要的身體衝撞。 and they're going to do all their little necessary banging.
我自己，注意力在卡爾身上， Myself, I focused on Karl.
霍納塞克單擋過去。 Hornacek screens across.
馬龍去到低位， Malone to the post.
當他正與丹尼斯對抗時， While he's fighting with Dennis,
他忘記了球的位置， he basically forgets where the ball is,
所以我選擇這次機會去做個抄截， and so I choose this opportune time to make my steal,
然後我就回頭把球拍掉了。 and I came back to strip the ball away.
馬龍被麥可拍掉球！摔倒在了地板上，喬丹抄截！ Malone stripped by Michael!To the floor, stolen by MJ!
麥可一個抄截！還剩16秒，公牛隊落後1分。 Michael a steal! Sixteen seconds left. Bulls down one.
觀眾變得安靜。 Crowd gets quiet.
那一刻開始變成了特定的時刻，你知道，屬於我的， The moment starts to become the moment, you know, for me.
一旦你遇到了這種時刻，你知道你在。 Once you get in the moment, you know you're there.
當我看到那時刻， And when I saw the moment.
是機會利用它時，我從未懷疑過自己， the opportunity to take advantage of it. I never doubted myself.
知道這是會是最後的機會， Knowing that this was going to be the last opportunity.
非贏即輸。 to either win the game or lose it.
麥可對抗羅素， Michael against Russell.
11秒，10秒...喬丹. Eleven, ten...Jordan.
喬丹突破，跳起，出手... Jordan a drive, hangs, fires...
得分！ Scores!
公牛隊贏得冠軍！ Bulls win the title!
公牛隊再度成為世界冠軍！ The Bulls are the world champs again!

多麼的偉大啊！ how magnificent is it!
哦，天啊！那太漂亮啦！ Oh, my God! that was beautiful.
不可思議的終結！ What a finish!
我心存信念！我心存信念！ I had faith! I had faith!
你肯定有。 You bet you did.
他的第六次MVP His sixth MVP
本賽季，他在NBA總決賽 this past season,and his sixth MVP
的第六次MVP。麥可·喬丹！ in the NBA finals. Michael Jordan!
麥可·喬丹的傳奇是真實的。 Michael Jordan's legacy is authenticity.
如果你移去所有的大肆宣傳 If you removed all the hype,
市場作用，炫目的表演， all the marketing, all the show-time glitz,
他也像任何一個在體育館或是任何時間地點打球的人一樣的百分之百真實。 he would be as 100% genuine as anybody who ever played in a gym or an armory anywhere anytime.
再不會有一位球員 There's never been a player
擁有麥可·喬丹擁有的那些能力， that's had that ability that Michael Jordan's had...
像他在籃球場上那樣戰鬥。 in the kind of way he did it in this game of basketball.
他的傳奇像是個新生兒而十年之後， His legacy is a newborn child ten years from now.
會有個父親說“真希望你有看過喬丹。” and a father says, "I wish you could have seen Michael Jordan."
感謝你 Thank you.
在球場上的優雅與尊嚴。 The dignity and grace with which you conduct yourself off the court
那些是很重要的事，我相信那是歷久不衰的經典。 those are important things,and I believe those are enduring things.
你如果計算，我不知道，或許兩萬五千年， You figure there've been, I don't know, 25,000 years.
我不知道你怎樣計算， I don't know how you do the math of that,
但是你想挑選五萬名最好的運動員， but that's like out of all 50,000 top athletes.
從你知道的，包括史前的雷龍和翼龍， since, you know, prehistoric times brontosaurus and pterodactyls included.
他都會在其中的！ he's right there!
十年之後，二十年之後， Ten years from now, 20 years from now...
我聽到人們在說的 I hear people saying,
或是希望人們去說的，很簡單， or l would want people to say, and it's simple...
如果麥可.喬丹還在打球賽的話， that if Michael Jordan was still playing the game of basketball,
他會統治比賽。 he would dominate.
不管籃球事業發生了什麼事情， No matter what happens in this business of basketball,
即使我們不拿一分錢， if we didn't get paid a dime,
你還會去某個地方打球。 you still would play the game of basketball somewhere.
在某個地方會有個小孩在努力， Somewhere there's a kid working.
他不省略任何步驟， He won't skip any steps.
他會以我為榜樣來學習， He will learn from my example,
就像我也以他人學習一樣。 just as I have learned from others.
將來會有位比我偉大的球員的。 There will be a player greater than me.
～劇終～ 謝謝觀賞
