#MagicNumber #MM🎆 ✌🏾🕸️🤞🏾
No magic before Dr.J respect...
But ELGIN BAYLOR RIP
CONNIE HAWKINS RIP WAS DOING IT
BEFORE DR. J before Michael Jordan
Etc.
CONNIE HAWKINS RIP THE HAWK!!!!
JB.ok
At 38 he did not talk about larry bird at all
Time code are wrong it miss the part with the battle with Larry guys
Blessings to you and your family Jack
30 years of work in a factory and never missing a day or being late is crazy…big respect to magics father for his work ethic
You ain't lyin that's amazing.
The way Magic tells stories with the expressions IS magic. 😂
Hee-hee
Big Facts Bro lol 😂
They made him retire on so straight up demon stuff
This was my favorite episode by far
My exact thoughts 💭 dude really is magic
That Paul Pierce guest appearance and story was incredible😂
During Matt Barnes' pee break too
Time stamp?
Magic Johnson and Deion Sanders have this energy that’s contagious
Exactly those two have that playful joking around mentality, I really never heard about them being angry.
@@rooseveltdarbey9493deion sanders used to feud heavy with jerry rice
@@gwensalador4325 Never talked shit to him or about him. Was just a professional rivalry of the highest order.
This Man is the reason there’s a Generation of Lakers fan 🔥 🏀
Facts. He is my favorite player
He and his team started the Lakers Winning legacy. I don't see Shaq, Kobe or Bron wanting to be there without that legacy.
✊🏽
@@tyshelley9764 facts! But lately I havent like his lakers commentary or how he left or leaks info
And im one of them ! 90’s baby (91). Pops was a Kicks fan Moms was a Laker fan so i caught the Shaq and Kobe era and been a fan ever since 💪🏾💜💛🏀
I love when guests randomly give Stak his flowers bc I feel that often he’s under appreciated. Tmac, Kobe, and now Magic, all crediting his game! It’s a lovely thing to see.
his jumper was hard to guard even watching it it looks very high
And he'd lock up
Grant Hill as well
He was a selfish player
@@TheSands83 🧢
This interview is a clear illustration why Magic is as successful as he is! He talks about others more than himself. He passes the praise around. Indeed a point guard off the court. Matt and Jack were just blushing. That's how Magic closes the deals. He makes you feel special. Extraordinary emotional intelligence. That's how he gets people onboard. including LBJ
You clearly missed the part when Jack proudly claims how he torched the Lakers giving them 30 every time...watch the look of death Magic gives him and comes back quick to jokes and compliments that you find nice...
Dude is a killer...
@@milosmilosevic9810 that's the competitor in him 🙂😂
Facts my fav player all time
@@lionelsheja6381 put him in 'unfarouble' environment and see what happens.....dude killed aids inside of him cause he's nasty and you talk about excelling in some kids game.
This was one of the best shows they did, Magic is still the man after all these years.
This one and the KG interview the best ones! The energy is just different!!
We gonna exclude the one with Kobe?
I agree. It's up there with KG and AI
@@bigfatratcheese5966 oooh yeah! That A.I. interview was good as well!
@@cccuevas89 having a live audience really makes a difference
i wish we could get magic, larry, Isaiah, & Jordan on a pod. it’d prolly end in a fight but itd be the most raw podcast ever
And pippen
@braedenwells6484 larsa gotta hop on with Jordan's son too. They all gonna run a train on her after the show
@@christophersanchez7845 bro what!?😂
The stories would be so epic. Jordan and Isaiah might fight right there on set 😂😂
Even 3 outta the 4 would do vrazy numbers. Make it happen guys!!
Never fear Magic is here! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The OG stories never get old man! I love it
Yes I love listening to his stories. Hugh Hefner and the playmates😂🐇
That Paul Pierce story is classic. “Nah Nah, that’s a foul”
Hands down...one of the BEST Magic Johnson interviews ever!
the interview with shay sharpe was fye too
@@teresacristina3967 Yeah both of those are the best ones.
@@diegobromfield the KG one on Allstar week was one of my faves as well
I'm laughing and crying too because he is my basketball idol. I always loved his energy.
First off condolence to Jack, feel your pain.
Second congratulations to both you for getting Magic, was a great interview, wished it could have been longer. Just felt chills listening to all the stories
Magic can light up the whole room, his personality and energy is infectious. He still doing big Showtime things, salute 🫡
This isn't an interview, it's a party.. crazy this effect Magic has wherever he goes... Just ups the energy anywhere, anytime.. that's a special gift
Dude has so much charisma
RIP to Donnie Jackson Sr. When Magic told Stack those kind words, I started crying.
I love listening to Magic and Isiah Thomas telling stories about their time in the NBA, It never gets old.
Magic is a treasure. That Finals game in 1980 when he scored 42, I remember he jumped center, won the tap, got the ball right back and started running the offense. Something about that sequence I realized the 76'ers didn't have a chance. Interview was fire.
They always say that Magic is the life of the party whenever he walks in the room. He proved it to the world int his interview. I was smiling ear to ear the entire time.
Magic's energy is showtime magic!
Yeah Magic is the best! Question, Im starting a new channel. Are you interested in winning prizes in exchange for listening to one song?
This episode brought tears.
Growing up in Inglewood, CA and going to school in Ladera Heights. I watched Magic literally transform the Crenshaw District and Ladera. Also, as a die hard Lakers fan, seeing him survive and continue to do well - it's an inspiration.
Thanks to Showtime and to everyone that put this together.
Can't forget growing up listening to Big Boy too. This was special for me.
Matt said ‘talk amongst yourselves’.
I’m WEEEEEEAAAAAAK!!!!!
😅😂😂😂😂
Magics aura is like no other man, his life is so crazy! He had the highest of highs but also got the lowest of low and is prevailing still. So crazy and it’s always a good watch/listen whenever he’s on any show
The way magic speaks is so captivating. From his energy to his tone… you could just listen to him for hours.
Magic Johnson has a phenomenal personality, I find myself smiling everytime he's telling a story. He was a Great leader on the court, and the type of player guys want to play for.
I was waiting for Magic to hit that "HEE-HEEE" no-look pass expression when he talked about those Dream Team practices lol. Always loved Magic's energy. It's contagious!
The high frequency energy all through out the interview was magical
There’s no one like Magic!
Condolences to Stak and his family. Between feeling the loss of his brother and the Kobe conversation, he was fightin it the last 15 minutes or so! 🙏🏿✊🏿
Magic is the reason we 80s people loved the NBA. High fives, chest bumps, and the joy of success! There's no reason to win with a sad face.
there are not many peiple on this planet who can make me smile let alone laugh out loud while i simply listen to their stories.
magic is one of them.
You dudes put my hero on this show and now I’m hooked. Much love.
My dad had a bunch of old Lakers highlights on a VHS tape and I'd watch Magic in absolute astonishment. It took me 15 years of experience to appreciate the nuances of his skill. Legend of legends.
The nuances are key.
My dad taped the whole 1991 finals series. Still have those VHS tapes along with the VHS rewinder that looks like a red Ferrari lol
Did you keep them by chance?
I LOVE Magic's interviews. When he talks about stuff that happened back in the day, he speaks about it as if it happened yesterday. He's still amazed about those Dr J moves. He still has so much love and admiration for Dr J, Kareem, and Bird. You can't help but to be fully engaged as he speaks. I've also heard stories of Magic approaching fans before fans even have a chance to speak to him, and holding whole convos with perfect strangers. I've never idolized any athlete even in my youth, but Magic was the reason I've been a Lakers fan for 40 years.
Words can never express how much I love Magic. Been a Magic fan since 1980 and he’s the reason I love The Lakers to this day.
Been telling ppl Magic is arguably the best storyteller in NBA history
Iman got that title
I was never a Lakers fan because I loved MJ & them Bulls but I've always admired Magic I'll never forget when I was 10yrs old& he announce that he was retiring due to HIV.. that day I had on my Magic t-shirt & I remember watching it on the news as my mother sent me to the store to grab some things for the house..I just remember tears just pouring down my face.. I may not be a Lakers fan but I will "ALWAYS " admire & love Magic...THANK YOU FOR ELEVATING THE GAME 🏀🏀🏀
Can’t help but have mad love for Magic. Real solid OG!
🎯🎯🎯💯💯💯 real talk I couldn't agree more
His energy is contagious and he's a great story teller lol he just seems to know how to have a laugh out of anything
Magic is just a great example of a successful athlete. Confident with humility
Wow 👏 bravo work guys. This was amazing. Quote of the day. "When you don't know about something, its okay to make a mistake. The problem is when you know about something, and you still make the mistake". Magic Johnson
Magic Johnson! I love him as a player and also as a person because he educated me about HIV and about how to stay safe from it! Magic is awesome! God bless you Magic and your loved ones!
Man Magics energy, smile, swag and just pure personality is what keeps him too cool for school. I love this dude frfr… Not many people in the world like this man. I could be around him all day, just straight POSITIVE ENERGY!!! Salute this man for life💯💯💯💯💯
We've heard these stories so many times but I ain't never gonna get tired of it 😂
Magic is an universal treasure. Pure gold!
I found myself clapping with the audience everytime they clapped. Magic Johnson is really infectious. Excellent work Matt and Jack keep it coming 👏
Magic truly is the greatest story teller ever man. His sheer enthusiasm he oozes is why he is so beloved.
On second note, I know Jack is clapping Rachel Nicols 😂.
I thought that was Rachel!
This interview just shows how great of a job HBO did on the ShowTime Lakers show, his stories perfectly aligned with thee depiction on the show
After hearing all of Magic’s stories it shows how accurate and well done winning time is
My heart goes out to Stak5 .. in tears. When a legend gives you your roses 🌹🌹 you can't do anything but cry. This was an AMAZING WONDERFUL episode.. I Love Magic JOHNSON 💕🤩
Magic can tell a story
The Pistons went to 5 straight ECF (in the tougher east), 3 straight finals, and 2 straight titles. I would say yes, they are a dynasty. A mini one, but a dynasty.
They almost 3 Pt
man magic is glowing! he has that aura that kinda makes it light, the atmosphere. its just a joy to watch and im glad i witnessed it. thankyou guys!
How can you not love Magic Johnson?!?! I can listen to him talk for days! Great story teller, and always giving wisdom.
Magic is the best. Love him and his old nba stories. 😂
Magic comes up clutch despite passing his bed time! Truly top 5 all time!
Matt putting up the finger for his bathroom run was hilarious
Magic.... He just got IT!!! Bottomline... he's that DUDE! Loved the show.
Magic got to be the best story teller ever
Wow magic is a living it’s great we still get great interviews like this from these boys
Simply one of the best episodes hands down. Magic dropped nothing but jewels! Respect!
I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE Magic!!! He made me fall in love with basketball when I was young .
Am I the only joker that has watched this episode twice already. This is now my favorite episode. It was between Bonze Wells and
KG. I didn’t know about Wells health issues. He was a dog dog and highly I mean extremely highly underrated.
Soon as I found out they interviewed Magic, knew it was going to be a classic...Magic didn't let us down...
Magic the Coolest ball player of all time. Could listen to him talkin for hours
Magic Johnson is just The MAN! Thank You Magic and Larry Bird for reviving the NBA.
What a legendary episode. Smiling ear to ear the whole time
Probably my favorite episode on this podcast to date. Magic has a way with warming up the public and whoever is in front of him. Its funny; as a kid I would watch larry bird, magic, and mj videos on repeat and study their game and try to emulate them on the crt. Fast forward 20 yrs later and Im studying magic for his character and try to emulate him in business. Hes just a great example of greatness on and off the crt. Im a die hard Celtics fan yet hes one of my favorite to ever do it. Hope to someday cross paths with the legend himself. Incredible episode.
The Real Point God. One of the greatest to ever to do it. Earvin Magic Johnson.
The fraternity of the NBA is unlike anything else, it benefits from the relationships that these guys have because of the game itself. There's not a branch that gets missed. Just talking about Kobe crushes me everytime, we'll never get to hear his stories develop over time....Matt even had to pause. As much as I love this, it hard not to miss Kobe's presence terribly.
Magic's stories are legendary!!!! I can envision it cause he paints a great picture
The Magic Man is an all time OG in every way. He opens doors for all people. Great Show and my condolences to Mr. Jackson. God Bless You.
I remember visiting one of the Friday restaurants that Magic owned here in L.A. in the early 2000’s to have food and drinks with friends and watch a Laker playoff game. There was a reserved table courted off which our party was allowed to sit at as we were told that the party for that table was no longer coming. Well after placing our order we were then asked to move as that person was now definitely coming and that this person needed the space. Long story short Magic and a few of his people walk in and the place went absolutely nuts! Magic saw us being moved in an jam packed restaurant which now was standing room only and told the waitress to stop what she was doing and had us all sit back down. He pulled up a chair and sat right next to me and shook my hand. No ego or pretentiousness. I grew up in L.A. so I already had a deep respect for the Lakers and Magic but after that interaction my respect has grown even more for that man. A true class act!
I been a Lakers Fan since I was 3 years old and I am 43 now and my favorite players of all time is Magic Johnson and Kobe Bryant this is most definitely one of my favorite episodes 🙌 ❤ 💯
Stak gets love everywhere he goes. RIP to his brother! Matt is great and funny as hell.
MAGIC is the reason I hoop man I always wanted to be like Magic on the floor true legend I usually don’t comment but I had to send love & respect to my goat, ATS y’all did it again man
I enjoy Magic Johnson's interviews. He's such a positive guy, brings such a great energy and he can tell a story like no other. His documentary was excellent as well. Great interview.
He’s been a real positive guy for the last 30+ years since retirement big ups to Magic foreal 💯
Magic Johnson has a Lot of Wisdom! He’s humble too. What a great American icon.
THIS WAS A GREAT EPISODE BEING A MICHIGANDER WE LOVE MAGIC, GOOD QUESTIONS GREAT MEMORIES YALL ARE ROCKING IT KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GENTS IM A FAN
Episode was phenomenal instant classic. Wanted to hear that magic starting 5 but it would probably be showtime!
Magic is a great human being!
Ervin Magic Johnson is one of the best people in life. Amazing Player and Business man. Definitely an inspiration in the Black Community.
Magic has always been and always will be the effin man! He may have one of the most loveable personalities ever!
I love magic and what he stands for, his generosity makes him even more special. He’s always been one of my favorite people to watch playing the game. ❤
Magic Johnson will always be that dude! #Salute
Loving seeing Magic being loose and having a good time
I been WAITING on this Episode!!!! I loved Magic since I was a kid and he was my 1st Sports hero before I ever knew who Michael Jordan was!!! A TRUE TRUE TRUE LEGEND and Professional!!!! And I THANK GOD Magic is Still here!!!!
Magic is truly inspirational, always learn something from him every interview!
I love watching ex NBA players reminiscing the days gone by. You can see the joy that they have recollecting those stories and telling it to the world. My only gripe is that we will never watch Kobe Bryant do this. He's one of the person that I was looking forward telling his stories..
Damm. Magic is just a different breed. Energy is just not of this world. The way he spreads joy and gives people their flowers is beautiful
We need more Magic interviews! He's just such a great dude
The love all these guys have for each other is beautiful man. This is the level of respect and love we should all have for each other 💯
magic got good energy bruh. Even tho this a video, he got a way of making you smile man
this living legend is the reason i am a fan of the lakers
Beautiful dialog gentlemen! Respect to Matt, Jack, and Magic!!
Dope that they got Magic. I felt cheated that I didn't get to see prime Magic, closest I got to seeing that was on the 92 Dream Team(Came of age during MJ and The Bulls). The blueprint on how to successfully navigate life after sport.
This was THE BEST interview!!!!!
Get MJ and Bird please!!!
Why did I cry after listening to magic talk to Jack? 😢.. I’m praying for him and his family
always great to hear from Basketball royalty & to see this show grow to new heights. big blessings to everyone in 2023 🙏🏾
Great interview y’all never disappoint. Magic a real legend. RIP Snap 🫡
One of the best sit downs I ever saw
