People were more reserved and mannerly back then. You weren't supposed to act like a friggin college crowd like they do now in NBA arenas. Don't get me wrong, I love it when a building is shaking.
The Lakers sold out every single game during the Magic era: 17,505. Chick would say that at the start of every game, meaning the Fabulous Forum is filled to capacity. Showtime (Magic's Lakers) also sold out opposing arenas, obviously.
@kperez1982 True. Very true. It's just that when it comes to clutch plays by Magic Johnson, his sky hook against the celtics in the 1987 finals is the first thing that I think of.
@psk8tr8 wow lol lame ass it's a fact kobe is the best laker ever ask any nba sports commentator any nba legend and maybe even your mom kobe probably hit it lol
@psk8tr8 Lolz. You're practically bouncing on Kobe's dick. Shut up, you seriously look like a fool. Comparing Kobe to ANYONE that played during that era. You should be slapped.
I LOVE MAGIC ! AND I REALLY LIKED MICHAEL JORDAN BUT THE GREATEST LAKER, AND THE GREATEST PLAYER EVER WAS KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR ! MAGIC WAS #2 AS A LAKER, AND JORDAN WAS #2 AS A PLAYER ! TIME TO KEEP IT REAL ! CHECK EVERY STATISTICAL CATEGORY AND SEE WHERE KAREEM RANKS AND WHAT HIS NUMBERS ARE !
holy crap. number 6 was about a 90 footer. awesome shot on boston. even shot off the wrong foot and banks it in. the dude behind hoop just spun in a circle.
No one is more clutch than Magic. The only people who come close are Jordan, Fisher, and that Horrier guy (something like that, not sure about his name.)
I don't understand why Magic is never brought up when the conversation of clutch players. Magic made many game winning shots and plays. I still believe Magic is underated Seriously you have to put him next to Jordan. They are complete opposites of the same coin. Jordan..a one man wrecking crew that used his will and superior skills to dominated the game. Magic. the epitome of a team player. Was all about winning. Was a game manipulator, being that he created oppurtunites with his court savy
sweet as fucc... i grew up on magic .....str8 outta compton 80"s baby......magic launchin shots from way down deep.....kobe type shit.....in l.a. we love this dude not for whut mainstream like him 4....but 4 whut we az our people like him 4.......dude did a lot for l.a.........and not only on tha hardwood.......word........
because boston garden see a GOD that makes cry every person in that arena..i think that in boston no one can forget that fantastic junior skyhook. larry bird for sure dreaming that final every night.. :)
wat the hell is up with number 2? lol why was he taking so many shots with like 13 seconds left on the clock?? like throwing up half court shots with that much time left.... BUT HE MADE IT?!?! hahaha thats hilarious
Magico! MAGICO! Mágico!!!! Johnson!!! Que maravilloso debe haber sido poder presenciar esos tres últimos segundos viendo al Magic en persona. Definitivamente un jugador que causó envidia 01:56
Okay, the numbers speak for themselves. Magic was amazing. The titles, all star games, mvps, he's top 5 player of all time. But I didnt grow up watching him, and all I can say is....he threw up some wild shots!! I mean he took that 3 with 13 seconds left from half court with kareem right under the basket. I dont know if you can get away with doing that nowadays.
@X1354 i agree...magic was an asshole on the court...but when he have that big ass smile on his face. :) it was on...magic with that smile and his teammates would kill the other team...i think the showtime team would beat the lakers now...i was a kid when i became a laker fan in the showtime era.
Jordan is the best athlete in the history of all the sports in the World.....that is a fact, impossible to jump, stay flying in the air, have those mits ass fingers!!! However basketball is a team game, for me there is no other as MAgic Johnson, when he retired cause of HIV he was 30 years old and had 5 NBA rings, Jordan won his first ring at 31. I understand people can argue Jordan is better, but do not underestimate the MAGIC MAN..... he invented showtime and made basketball the game it is
As a Celtic fan,I THANK YOU very much for not including that FUKING HOOK SHOT over Bird,parish and McHale during the 87 finals that nailed down that championship;that still hurts.
