LEADERSHIP

Jordan and James have always been known as
winners. They also were the leaders of winning teams
during their careers.
Jordan was one of the great champions in the

history of basketball. As a freshman at the University
of North Carolina in 1982, he hit the game-winning
shot in the national championship game. In the NBA,
it took him a few years to win a title. Once he did, he
just kept winning. Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to six
NBA titles.

Jordan was the heart of the championship
Bulls teams in the 1990s. He helped them win
championships in 1991, 1992, and 1993. He retired
from the NBA after the 1993 season, and Chicago
couldn’t win without him.

When Jordan returned, the Bulls started winning
again. He led them to championships in 1996, 1997,
