“Young Michael didn’t have much money, but he had one thing he loved: a faded, red basketball jersey. He wore it to every practice and every game. He believed the jersey had magic in it, and years later, when he became a pro, that same jersey was hung in a frame in his house as a reminder of where he started.” (年轻的迈克尔钱不多，但他有一件他心爱的东西：一件褪色的红篮球衫。他每次练习和比赛都穿着它。他相信这件衣服里有魔力，多年后当他成为职业球员时，那件衣服被裱起来挂在家里，提醒他起步的地方。)
