38、篮球运动史上最成功的球员。乔丹出生于纽约，在北卡罗莱纳州长大。在加入芝加哥公牛队以前，他在北卡罗莱纳大学学习了一年。在第一个赛季(19841985)，他就以平均每场28.2分的成绩成为联盟得分最高的球员之一。1987年，乔丹成为第二个在一个赛季中得分超过3 000分的球员。以后连续七个赛季(19871993)，他都是NBA的顶尖球员。这期间，他每场比赛的平均得分超过30分。有了他的参与，公牛队在1991年首次获得NBA总冠军。在这段日子里，捷报频传，他们在1992年和1993年又蝉联了冠军。乔丹也是人称“梦之队”的美国奥林匹克篮球队的成员。这支球队在1992年西班牙巴塞罗那奥运会上夺取了金牌。
39、19931994赛季前乔丹退役，举世震惊。但后来他又回到了芝加哥公牛队，并和队友们一起在1996到1998年间又获得了3次冠军。2003年40岁的乔丹在最终退出体坛前，还曾效力于华盛顿奇才队。数百万的球迷们都很钦佩乔丹的运动才能、动力和自信。他们可以讲述很多关于迈克尔乔丹的传奇故事，例如，一次他拯救了公牛队，从而避免比赛打成平局。他走向罚球线罚了两次球。每次他都把球直接投进了篮筐并且每次都是闭着眼睛投进去的。因为他很爱吃牛排，离开篮坛，迈克尔乔丹开了一家自己的牛排馆。在和著名卡通人物宾尼兔一起演出的影片空中大灌篮中，他也获得了成功！对于这位世界上最优秀的球员，只有一个词能用来形容他了不起！高跷
40、威尔特神力之巅！迈克尔乔丹是一个赛季中得分超过3 000分的第二人但是第一人是威尔特张伯伦。张伯伦于1936年8月21日出生于费城。他是家里11个孩子中唯一一个长得很高的。父亲威廉在造船厂干活，母亲奥莉维亚是一名清洁工。孩童时的张伯伦有各种各样的健康问题。他在10岁时得过肺炎，差点儿死去。张伯伦是整个赛季中平均每场得分超过50分的唯一一名NBA球员。曾几何时，张伯伦比其他所有运动员都优秀太多，以至于他们改变了比赛规则来试图限制他！19591960赛季间，这位篮坛巨人加盟NBA费城勇士队并立即获得成功。在为4支不同球队效力的14个赛季期间，张伯伦4次被评为联盟最有价值的球员。1962年3月2日，
41、他单场比赛得了100分迄今为止还没有人打破那一纪录！最后的比分是勇士169对纽约尼克斯147!在加盟洛杉矶湖人队度过5个令人惊异的赛季后，威尔特结束了他的职业生涯。一直到退役，威尔特还保持着多项NBA纪录：118次单场比赛得50分或50分以上，32次得60分或60分以上。威尔特张伯伦比迈克尔乔丹优秀吗？谁知道呢？但是，毫无疑问，他无愧于“一代杰出球员”的称号。 阅读理解AThe roots of basketball are deep in Canada.In 1891 the game was invented by Dr.James Naismith, a Canadian who was
