Happy Birthday Magic Johnson

I know we don't celebrate players birthdays, but him being or best our second best ever deserves a birthday recognition ven if he annoys the hell out of me on ESPN a lot.

So glad Magic is still alive. It's ironic but when I think of Magic I thin "GO DODGERS' instead of Go Lakers now. But Magic wont be so anti-Laker w/ his boy taking over as coach. Ever since D'Antonie Magic has a had a tough time w/ the Lakers as have many fans. Mistakes happen. Move on. Time for Magic to support the Lakers again.
Lakers are 22-3 in OT last 6 seasons:Kobe best OT closer!

Magic has always supported the Lakers. His problem is that he sometimes expresses in different ways, He went to recruit Melo and he left impressed from the lakers pitch so I think Magic is still with us.

Magic earned the right to run his mouth, regardless of what I personally think of his opinions. He has my respect

There was a time when I thought Magic could do no wrong, but years and years of seeing him talk about the Lakers and of Kobe and that whole Isaiah thing...he believes he can do no wrong and knows he gets a pass.

Isiah Thomas is, was and will always be, a fake pos...
He told people Magic was gay when he revealed he had aids... For one example.
Hold Magic accountable for what he says, but make sure you know why he's saying it... Isiah had been talking **** about Magic for decades before he said anything bad about him.
Even when they were supposed to be friends back in their playing days, there were always these quotes from Isiah about Magic not being that good or him better or whatever... Which he always denied... Then later, he's saying all the same ****.

Magic has somewhat of an agenda right now... He would love to own the Lakers. He loves the lakers, but if he could find a way to get the Buss family to sell, I'm sure he'd sell everything he had to buy the Lakers...

He's always had a great personality... His personality and emotions lead his brain a lot...

That said, I've heard infinitely worse things said about the Lakers by their own fans on this forum than I've ever heard Magic say.

Happy Belated Birthday Magic... Please do a better job of keeping our business out the streets...
Never have rice at Hanzo's house...
