There’s a new Jerry West biography coming out this week called “Jerry West: The Life and Legend of a Basketball Icon.” While the book is about West, the passage that is sure to attract the most media attention is this juicy tidbit about Magic Johnson in the final chapter:
“That November, as a new season was set to open, Magic Johnson announced to the world that he was HIV positive, a stunning event that brought revelations about the climate of sexual frivolity around the Lakers. Johnson admitted he had been sleeping with 300-500 people a year. The team’s locker room, and its sauna, had been a place where the star and other players had entertained women, even right after games. Johnson would retire to the sauna after a game, have sex, then put on a robe and return to the locker room for his post-game media interviews. How far had the team gone in condoning such questionable behavior? ‘I cared,’ West said in his interviews for this book. ‘I did things for those guys. It was ridiculous, some of the things I did for those guys. If the public knew they’d be outraged. It was a pretty crazy period for us.’”
I bolded that one sentence for emphasis. 300 to 500 people a year! And am I reading too much into this when I notice that the word “people” is used instead of “women”? We’ve all heard the rumours, right? Anyway, it seems to me that Jeff Pearlman needs to get started writing the definitive unauthorized Magic Johnson biography, pronto.

I'm sure he had tons of threesomes and whatnot.
Certainly seems plausible and possible.

If this statement is true, lets just take the smaller amount for argument sake. 300 people is the amount Jerry West is AWARE of or helped him with. We have no idea the amount that he kept secret to his teammates or the team officials or owners etc. Or maybe that's why the chose a range from 300-500, but man I am sorry that is just disgusting.

I wonder which one gave him HIV and which women he gave HIV too.

This just makes A.C. Green's accomplishment (not sure if that's the right word here) all the more remarkable.

Which ONE? With that amount it might have been more than one.

You know the funny part is the only thing I noticed in this picture is how the word "Lakers" on his jersey is backwards (image is flipped I assumed) didn't even want to look at the women
