:40:01
You bet you did.
:40:04
We've come a long
long way together
:40:07
Through the hard times
and the good
:40:12
I have to celebrate
you, baby
:40:16
I have top raise you
like I should
:40:18
His sixth M.V.P.
this past season,
:40:21
and his sixth M.V.P. in the N.B.A. finals.
Michael Jordan!
:40:34
Michael Jordan's legacy
is authenticity.
:40:38
if you removed all the hype,
:40:40
all the marketing,
all the show-time glitz,
:40:43
he would be as 100% genuine as anybody
who ever played in a gym...
:40:49
oran armoy
anywhere, anytime.
:40:53
There's never been a player...
:40:55
that's had that ability
that Michael Jordan's had...
:40:57
in the kind of way he did it
in this game of basketball.
:41:02
His legacy is a newborn child
ten years from now...
:41:04
and a father says,"I wish you
could have seen Michael Jordan."
:41:08
Thank you.
:41:09
The dignity and grace...
:41:10
with which you conduct yourself
off the court...
:41:12
those are important things,
:41:14
and I believe
those are enduring things.
:41:16
You figure there've been,
I don't know, 25,000 years.
:41:19
I don't know how you do
the math of that,
:41:22
but that's like out of all 50,000
top athletes...
:41:25
since, you know,
prehistoric times...
:41:28
brontosaurus and
pterodactyls included...
:41:31
he's right there.
:41:32
Ten years from now,
20 years from now...
:41:35
what I hear people saying,
:41:36
orl would want people to say,
and it's simple...
:41:39
that if Michael Jordan was still
playing the game of basketball,
:41:42
he would dominate.
:41:43
Welcome to my world
:41:47
No matter what happens
in this business of basketball,
:41:51
If we didn't get paida dime,
:41:53
you still would play the game
of basketball somewhere.
