It's 1984, Reagan is in the White House, Apple launches its first Macintosh. Converse and Adidas share the market for NBA teams, stars on posters and college seniors. Nike, the company named after the goddess of victory that no one can pronounce, trudges far behind. And for Phil Knight, its co-founder and runner in college and in soul, that can't be good enough. That's why he has for some time now been hiring in the basketball division Sonny Vaccaro, a scout who has been traversing high school and college arenas halfway across the United States in search of the next star. Now he may have found him, his name is Michael Jordan, but only Sonny believes it, and to get to that boy he will have to come up with something revolutionary.
