When Jordan would go out for the spotlight introduction, he would look up into the stands and he would realize that there was at least someone up there that night who had never seen him before, who would never see him again. And this would be the one Michael Jordan moment, they ever had. And he would say he was playing for those people there.

We had a six-game road trip. Michael had some spasms in his lower back. And we literally had to, you know, carry him off the bus, off the plane to the bus, from the bus to the hotel. You know, it amazed me, he went out and got 40 points that night. This is the kind of player he was. He wanted everybody to see his special skill. And he didn't want people who loved basketball not to have that opportunity.
我们曾经连续打6场比赛。而迈克尔的背部有些痉挛。我们公事公办,你知道,带他下车,下飞机上车,坐车去宾馆。你知道,我很惊讶那晚他砍下40分。他就是这种类型的球员。他希望每个人看到他的特殊技能。他不想让喜爱篮球的人没有这个机会。

I think what they have to learn more about at that young age is their love for the game. And once they've developed that, then the mental part is easy.
