mitchell n ness

a lot of u (ok.. who am i kidding).. some of u who normally read my blog.. must wonder apsal tetiber theme gua lain.. well.. u can never go wrong wit simplicity.. just like an ibook .. white n boxy.. camtuh ajer.. tapi dah cukup utk buat org jadik giler.. it depends.. i was fond to read WHEN NOTHING ELSE MATTERS : MICHAEL JORDAN LAST COMEBACK after readin the review kat amazon.. why? probably all the bashing yg die dedicate kan kat mike.. gua nak tau sejauh maner die tulis dan sejauh maner betulnyer ppl are saying about how we (mike fans) huv been blinded by the awesomeness of mike sampai luper bahwa die ade laa human like us.. aside from jordan rules.. this is one of those book.. yg citer pasal mike not as the greatest basketball tapi as human...

well.. i took the chance of reading it.. pegi MPH for two days sebab nak abiskan baca.. n i found out that betul laa tuh some review.. this book mmg cite pasal the other side of mike.. die potray mike as bad.. but not as bad bad.. to sum ppl who dont understand ball.. tak understand competativeness, challenge, dream n most importantly luv.. possibly akan agree with the author.. yes in this book mike corrupted byk decision making in the organization.. control.. berated the rookies.. teammates.. but that only shows this one quality that forever will seperate mike dgn semua org lain.. the luv of the game.. the luv in givin everything that u got for sumthin that u really believe in.. that is as simple as it gets.. as good as it gets.. that's life n that's luv....

fo those who didnt understand.. camnih aa.. gua short cut.. mike dah 2 kali retire.. both wit championship.. so after that 2 yrs die pun bapak borin.. bai nih normal bai.. this is the everyday feelin of not just great athlete.. tapi lu ngan gua org biaser pun akan rase camnih... shit man u luv doin sumthin n u huv to stop.. mmg aa rase tak bess.. so he came back as president of operations.. that found out that his team wasnt giving everything that they were supposed to.. pastuh die pun decide nak correct this.. install some pride in the game he luv.. ya ya.. semua org tau sebenanyer die gatal tangan nak main balik.. shit man.. gua pun gatal tangan.. semua org tau die nak kembali as the same mike.. u n i know that he came up wit bullshit likes i-can-accept-failure-but-i-can't-accept-not-trying punyer line... i know that he wanna do it for himself.. shit man.. that doesnt even bother me.. to tell u the truth.. i would huv done the same.. its easy really.. how can u seperate sumthin that u luv ur dear life on?...

i go broke buyin shoes.. but i still buy em.. i find ways to buy em.. he just dont know wen to stop.. cam gua.. biler kad gua dah max and gua tepakse abiskan 20 hari dlm sebulan tak makan.. tuh laa point gua utk berenti.. tapi mike tatau.. he just want assurence.. but his competitiveness got the best out of him.. his optimism yg org lain tak bole ikut.. once u've decided to do sumthin.. baik buat ngan full heart kan.. lagik lagik sumthin yg lu luv.. tapi bukan utk some ppl.. esp. his teammate.. he tried all he could.. n i could see that some frustration will turn to anger.. shit man.. gua rase benda tuh sekarang even at the smallest of all things.. apsal? sebab benda benda tuh matters to me.. it could be as small as tak dpt makan kfc.. shit man.. biler benda benda yg matters ngan diri kite ... he is human.. so wat?... i believe the book aim to state that... he is human.. there's nuthin wrong wit that.. tapi utk ckp itu as kelemahan pada mike.. well i dont think so.. to turn him into a bad guy.. well i dont think so.. he is out there trying to satisfy himself... u and i ... we r doin it...

after readin it fo two days... it is sad to know that ade satu paragraph ajer yg gua rase dpt summarize semua nih.. ( which is one reason y u shouldnt get it ).. in the final chapter.. author die tanyer mike aper yg die stare kat luar tingkap office die.. mike ckp sumtimes die nampak budak dribble bola.. the sight of which he implies, musti ade game sumwhere budak tuh nak pegi... dan betapa sunyinyer die kat office nih after bein seperated from the game... similarly.. i hope i will be given the chance to do just that.. n i dont mean that as bein in the nba... if i am mike.. i think this would be my 1st comeback.. i hope it is... no worries.. i wont be wearin no. 45... id no. is longer than that... n i promise that there will never be a 2nd comeback.. in the field i'm in.. i dont even think i need it...
