    Magic was way ahead of his time. I mean he was the original Lebron. A guy who was very very hyped up with the talent that you knew he was going to be great. I mean imagine winning an NCAA title and then going to the NBA and you know you are that good. The Lakers at that point were a playoff team making it to the conference semi finals, but lost out to the Super Sonics. Magic was that hyped up player that could back up everything he said and he got the team to rise up.

      @@whoknows20232 The only major flaw of Magic's legendary Post NBA career (not counting his brief comeback around 1995-'96)has actually been this. When he was the Lakers GM & Head of Basketball Operations/Part Owner in the Mid/Late 2010's right before LBJ arrived. Other than that as a Businessman Magic no doubts belongs in either a Forbes or Fortune 500 HOF as a Business Owner /Executive. Especially being the Front Man for the current Dodgers Ownership group that brought the team from crook Frank McCourt.

    How ironic that Magic was fighting for $600k and no one taught him the value of stock options, thereby leading him to make the worst financial decisions of his life. He rejected an offer by Nike for 100k shares and $1 for every shoe sold. Nike sells approximately 780 million shoes a year now. He'd be making almost $1 billion every year just on shoe sales alone. I can't imagine how it must be to think how rich he could have been had he just signed an agreement with Nike in 1979. It's impossible for me to imagine what that kind of money must feel like.
