Wilt Chamberlain is retired now.  He used to be a famous basketball player.  He has set 65 different records, and still holds many of them.  During the final years of his career, he drew a large salary and became very wealthy.  He even built himself a 1.5 million dollars’ house.  Yet, despite his personal success, he led his team to only one championship.  His team often won enough games to qualify for the final rounds, but they almost always lost in the finals.  As a result, Wilt became determined to win one more championship before he retired.
    In 1972, while Wilt was playing against a New York team, he fell down and hit his wrist on the floor.  He felt pain immediately and knew he had hurt himself badly.  When a doctor examined Wilt, the doctor confirmed Wilt’s fear.  The doctor told Wilt that he had broken a bone in the wrist and that he could not play any longer.
    Wilt didn’t listen to his doctor’s advice. The next night, with his many fans watching in surprise, he not only played the entire game,  but he was outstanding.  His team won the game and the championship.  Wilt had realized his dream--to be a winner one last time.
