    The final 4 minutes of the 1992 NBA All-Star Game. Magic Johnson buries three straight 3-pointers and closes out the game in truly "Magical" fashion. Sit back and enjoy a stellar, infinitely memorable performance by the greatest point guard the NBA has ever seen.
    Still brings tears to my eyes...

    You can't help but cry when you watch how Magoc made the last shot and the entire game just STOPPED out of love and respect for this LEGEND OF A PLAYER. There was not one man on that court that wanted to take another shot to ruin the moment for Magic. What class.

    Magic was the player that got me to watch the NBA. Started watching during the 85-86 season and years later when he announced his retirement because of the HIV virus I broke down in tears. When my dad told me he was going to be in the 1992 all-star game I remember being so excited to see him play again.

    Gosh it’s been 30 years since this game and Magic is still alive and going strong! God bless him and those who’ve suffered through HIV. Those of us who were kids then weren’t sure how long Magic would live so for me it’s quite emotional looking back at this moment.

I remember watching this game having a hard time understanding how one of the greatest wasn't going to play anymore after seeing that display. He did what he wanted with that ball. Was never a laker fan but loved watching magic play. He's my first pick on my all time team. Our generation was blessed to see his career. NBA sucks now, LeBron, curry, Westbrook, Joel, KD wouldn't have made it back then. Bunch of overpaid bed wetters.

    I very vividly remember watching this live on TV and seeing how much controversy and tension there was on account of Magic’s very recent announcement that he had HIV. The big fear was checking Magic too close, gettin’ hit and getting infected because at that time, most of us were still iffy on how it was spread and even how he, himself, contracted it.
    As you can see, however, people stepped up at the end, not only to challenge him, but to congratulate him at the end.
    It was a very interesting time.

    Hard to forget a cooler moment in NBA history.
    Younger fans wont get it. Times have changed. HIV used to be a death sentence. And Magic/Bird/Jordan were "bigger" than any current guys...before cable, the internet, etc, we all watched the same things.
    So when Magic retired, the whole nation was punched in the gut. Like the JFK moment of our generation (pre 9/11)
    The ending of this game was storybook. And hasnt aged a bit. Still cool as hell.
    The 3s are cool...but that one armed pass through traffic under the basket...classic magic

    If a Bird were taking flight once more...
