The story

In 1984, Oregon-based Nike, Inc. is on the verge of shutting its basketball shoe division down due to low sales.

In response to this, Marketing VP Rob Strasser, along with co-founder and CEO Phil Knight, task Nike's basketball talent scout Sonny Vaccaro to come up with a new spokesperson for Nike basketball shoes.

In the meantime, Knight agrees to assign the basketball division's entire $250,000 budget to sign Jordan.
