Magic Johnson Appreciation Thread

The comeback. First game back: 19 points 8 rebounds 10 assists after being away from the game 5 years! Watch the post game interview. If this guy doesn't have the most magnetic smile ever, I don't know who does.

The Lakers took a beating in this game but watch the post game stuff. Magic's sportsmanship is amazing. And when have you ever seen two star players from opposing teams do interviews together? Peep MJ's comments about L.A.'s heart. Lol, classic stuff.

One of the better gimmick accounts I have ever seen.

Magic question of the day...
If Magic did not retire in 1991, would he be the career assist leader?
Stockton - 18 years, 15,806 assists
Jackson - 14 years, 10,334 assists
Kidd - 15 years, 10,148 assists
Magic - 11 1/2 years, 10,141 assists

I would think so. Dude retired at what, 31? 5 more productive years and he would prob still be #1 in assists.
GOAT of PGs!

Is it in you?
Re: Magic Johnson Appreciation Thread
For me growing up a Sixers fan, I respectfully declare this guy as my personal GOAT. A guy who plays every part and position exceptionally well and possesses a skillset that no player will ever duplicate.
