@@mannyneva1760 - Can Magic and Larry flop like LeBron? Sorry. I shouldn't disrespect those two. I think Larry's the GOAT. But Jordan and Magic are up there too, a few others are as well.
Thanks my man. It was really fun watchin you understand Magic. He is the GOAT winner by %.. Seriously.. Look it up. And yeah.. Larry was as a bad ass as they say I saw it all ...and it was glorious
I always liked when the Lakers would go big and small at the same time. They go big in the backcourt with Cooper (6'7") and Magic (6'9"). Then go small up front with Worthy (6'9"), A.C. Green (6'9") and Mychal (Klay's Daddy) Thompson (6'10"). They could almost switch everything. They had quick feet and long arms. That lineup was TOUGH.
Magic was extremely versatile. That Game 6 against Philly starting in Kareem's place shows this and shows he had a lot more scoring punch than he was given credit for. Couldn't shoot like Bird but when the situation called for it, he could still pump in the points. I have him a close 4th all time behind Bird, both behind Russell and Wilt.
Greatest 20 yr ever in NBA history college championship mop NBA championship finals mvp played all 5 positions in the finals 42 15 and 7 best PG in NBA history
Important NBA history!!!! The Lakers announcer that you hear on the video is named chick Hearn. Laker announcer for 47 years. He created many of the basketball terms that are used every day. Finger roll, slam dunk, dribble drive…. (chickisms… look it up) The greatest non-player impact in NBA history. He is responsible for the language used when talking about basketball everywhere in the world.
I hope you understand now, how old school guys like me, get out on the open courts today, and wipe our whole a$$ with these young bux. We growed up on Magic, Bird, MJ, Barkley, Pip, Stock, Malone, Ewing, etc...
Your reactions were hilarious......I watched nearly all of that happen live in the '80s! Remember, when he took over in that finals game and won it for them, he started at center but played all 5 positions at some point in the game....as a 20 year old rookie.....the only rookie EVER to win "Finals MVP"! He was special! There's a REALLY good documentary about Magic and Bird called "Magic & Bird: A Courtship of Rivals"......I HIGHLY recommend checking it out!
"Big Game James" James Worthy. Dude was a beast. One of the quickest first steps ever.
Got it boss, he’s on the list now🙏🏾
There was respect amongst players back then. I grew up a laker fan watching magic. Great Reaction. Watching him was always a Highlight real
They say Lebron can pass like Magic 😂
Hey i'm a Larry bird guy die hard to my grave, watched him and Magic play in the 80's. Lebron is great, but he not even close to Magic in passing.
@@battagliarandy8073 he ain’t close to Bird
@@mannyneva1760 you are correct.

He has surpassed Bird. He has surpassed Magic.
Thanks my man. It was really fun watchin you understand Magic.

Greatest PG of all time. It’s not even even a question to me.
I did grow up with a Magic Johnson poster on my wall. So I do have some bias.
YESSSSS, THAT WAS LIVE! 😊 ALLLLLL OF IT AND IT WAS LOTSAAAAA FUN TO BE DOWN AT THE FORUM IN THE 80'S💯😊
"If you look at the trajectory of the lean...this nigga nice." LoL, That Part!
AND THAT'S ( MARK EATON ) 7'4 GIANT FROM THE JAZZ, INSANE! YUPPPPP!😊

I smell a Jordan mix tape reaction
A sports reporter and Michigan gave ervin the nickname when he played in high school

He, Magic, has a ton more of highlights. He passed and drove the lane like that multiple times a night.
James Worthy’s name was “Big Game James” cause in every big game he showed up and showed out nuff said

None of this passing stuff made any sense to me until I studied your calculations.
😂😂
7:30 not to mention for the championship win in his rookie year
The pass @ 10:17 that you dissected 😅 was around Mark Eaton (53), the "Man Mountain". All 7'4"/280lbs of him...!!
He is well spoken and a hell of a personality.
FREEZODTB, LAKERS BASKETBALL 🏀 WAS CALLED SHOWTIME & THEY PLAYED HIGH TEMPO FAST BREAK FOR THE WHOLE GAME!
YOU GOTTA DO A FEW OF THE ( CLAYTON ) VIDEOS ( MAKING THE CASE ) FOR G.O.A.T. 👍😊 AT LEAST MAGIC AND BIRD, I'D EVEN SAY THE BLACK MAMBA, RIP KOBE! 😮☹
Coach, can I play center? This why he is MY GOAT 🐐
42 and 15 his rookie year
Great reaction

KOBE ( THE BLACK MAMBA), JULIUS ERVING ( DR. J ), KAREEM ( THE CAPTAIN ) WELL THERE'S 3 GREATS FOR SURE!😊
I hate to say this but they try and compare LBJ to him in his passes
Check out some james worthy highlights....he absolutely destroyed my pistons in the finals ugh lol
THE BAD BOYS? 😊

Bro Larry won 3 chips not 9😂😂😂😂😂
😊
The best bird video is ( making the case)
That hook shot was indefensible.
If anyone mad about fam pausing just fast forward 😂
Where is your Jordan reaction. I’ll follow once that on is up. Enjoyed your reaction though
Coming up next boss, and thanks 🙏🏾
@@FREEZO410once you see that Jordan mixtape you’re gone be sold on who’s the goat.. that boy Jordan was different
@@FREEZO410Man Magic Johnson is smooth. Definitely the best passer of all time in my opinion. Enjoyed your reaction and I just subscribed
Homie. Bird only won 3 titles Magic won 5. Magic was in the finals 9x in 12 years
Let's just call it like it is .......
Magic is WAY more fun to watch than lebron.
Kobe disrespected his mother and father,and because of father he .was the kobe Bryant you see. He may have been a ball player but not a good person
Kobe didn’t pass cmon
you need a new fact checker Bird only won 3 NBA championships. and only coach the Indiana Pacers
Only lol, but I get what your saying.
Way too many pauses, talking and over reactions in the first 5 minutes of the video. Couldn't finish. No subscriber here. Keep it simple and flowing.
I feel you. Thanks for watching tho
Still waiting for that Kobe mixtape btw 😅
Coming soon boss
