Magic Johnson on Signing LeBron James to the Lakers
• Magic Johnson on Signi...
Lakers put Magic as their main salesman. That's a legendary organization.
Binh Nguyen facts 🖒
Without Magic Lakers would still be Utter Shite, crazy how the Player is now Helping The Franchise...If you can even call Magic Johnson a player anymore lmao
Lakers will always be relevant. Believe that 💯
Binh Nguyen ... Definitely! And the Lakers are very fortunate to have possibly THE most charismatic individual/player/leader in basketball history as a part of their family. Magic was obviously the GOAT PG on the floor; now he's proving to be the GOAT PG of basket operations off the floor! One of the great communicators in sports history i think; not quite at the Ali level, but definitely at that next level of communication genius.
Magic earned that! He made so
Much money on early Starbucks and that time lot of
People passed on Starbucks but he saw business & future!
Magic is so charismatic
bland stan facts, great guy
Man got a second chance at life hes never living it down now
of course he is, he’s almost a billionaire y wouldn’t he be
Yeah his great...so positive
yurnero wade lmao
I like magic. He seems like a chill dude. Down to earth.
Me too😊
cuz he an old guy
He beated AIDS when AIDS was unbeatable
*Magic's laugh gives me life*
LyricalGenes not if he spits a little bit😂
He’s so positive
LeThanos naaaaaa😂😂😂
LeThanos I was thinking the same thing
Your comment gives him life
Damn being able to genuinely laugh about losing 500thousand must feel great.
Matthew Threats no way
i was thinking the same thing must be nice
Kariem Abozyid that's chump change to some people
Facts
Kariem Abozyid why did he get fined
Magic Johnson is a legend.
I believe Magic is the greatest Laker of all time. 9 Finals appearances in 12 seasons. If Kareem played all his years in LA, then he probably would be the greatest Laker.
@R Age,
I hear you bro. 💯
Best laker of all time hands down
@Chris,
Yes bro.
Youre a Troll
Magic should hook up Guillermo with that LeBron interview.
Captain Kirby I believe the streak will break it will happen lol
Trueee
a full 2 hour live interview on national tv. we must not accept anything less
Kimmel is sharp on this one. You can tell he's excited that Magic is there.
well magic is just a natural conversationalist and whenever you get to speak with people like that its very easy to converse .. I would imagine a good percentage of his guests he is having to carry the conversation with, smooth over awkward moments and keep the talk entertaining
He loves nba. When nba players come, he gets excited
Kawhi and magic would be very awkward in a room together 😂😂
One so quiet tye other so Loud😂
One laughs and smiles a lot the other weird laugh
kawhi speaks when he needed to speak.
kawhi is the reverse magic
I feel like Magic could get Kawhi to open up.
Magic really does have this aura about him. He really has that LA magic!
Only the really greats have that aura ...Magic ...Prince ...Bono ...Maradona ...Ali ...Jordan
Michael Jackson
It’s called aids
his magic hails from Michigan, he brought it with him to LA
(don't get it twisted)
Edgar Gonzalez
actually, it's called a MIRACLE
Magic has a billionaire laugh.
He is
Who’s here after they won the championship
He wasn’t apart of it though.
@@samuelwoods7832 But i'll still give credit to him
@@samuelwoods7832 dont matter he was apart of why bron even joined the Lakers
@@dwadeisthegoat2020 Was he though? His kid was already going to school they’re and he had multiple house also he was starring in space jam 2. He was going there regardless.
I love Magic Johnson & Larry Bird relationship 💯
Lord 2wice better than Trump and Putin relationship btw they are getting married soon fyi
+leo c Looks like 300+ people did.
+leo c "how old are 12"
12 are older than 11.
+leo c Nope! Half of it is obviously yours.
Daddy dad?
never seen magic not smile
Jygga Swoop then this is the first time you've seen him.
He’s a very positive man 😌😂
D B jordan got spanked way more times by prime magic and the lakes.
+Jonathan L WRONG!!! They were tied for six wins against each other in the regular season during their primes before Magic's comeback in '96 where he lost for the last time.
There's footage of him crying while talking about Larry Bird calling him after hearing about his HIV.
Watching this after he stepped down as the president 🙁
jmz macasinag Trump is president dumbass
Tupac Shakur omg 😂
@Did you just Assume My Gender r/whoosh
A.L Productions this isn’t a woosh moment as the first comment legitimately thought he was talking about the Us president, so you should be wooshing him
@Did you just Assume My Gender r/wooosh
One of the best interviews I’ve seen lately. It didn’t hurt that Magic went punch for punch with Jimmy on the jokes
Aw look at him smiling, he's so positive!!!!
HIV
😨😂😂
LOOOOOOOOL
😡
Anon 100 why u gotta go there?
Obviously white
Trump voter
Hater
Jealous
It's ok..
Top class from magic. Big ups
Johnny wtf is big ups. I thought chris brown made up that phrase in freaky friday
夜神 月 ライトLight Booaaaa u aint never heard “big ups” fam? It means ‘respect’
Very positive!!
Johnny NICE PROFILE PIC!! 🔥🔥
Luke Coltson thx fam. U already know!
"i work best by myself" -magic johnson... ironic cuz he was one of the best team players of all time
homage to MSU my dudes!
Magic & Lebron working together to make a really beast team
lol they still cant beat the warriors I don't know what you talking about beast team he did it for the money!
Their team makes no sense w Rondo, McGee, Lance, Beasley.... they still don’t beat Houston to me which is behind GSW.
Magic, Lebron, Rondo, the top 3 basketball IQs of all time
@@deviate849 they won a title 😂
Can't help but love Magic
Magic Johnson is gonna bring the Lakers to the promise land!
Did it before, can do it again
💯💯💯
For what 4 years then lbj retires snd you'll be garbage again. Yet good luck with temporary happiness which won't get you bums a ring anyway
Jess Top 90% of our team is 25 or younger, we ain't going nowhere 😈😈😈
Balling Like I'm Tobe ya garbage
I love his interview with Magic Johnson, both guys are funny and very hilarious. I like how Magic keep everything professional when Jimmy Kimmel was asking him questions.
There is a reason this man is the president of Lakers Operations, HE IS A LEGEND!
Magic is so full of life. Seeing his laughing makes my day happier
Jr smith be like "why is LeBron wearing purple and gold is that our new city edition Jerseys"
That not actually bill russel🤣🤣🤣
Magic´s laugh is countagious
So is hiv
@@adamsmith9550 I got what you ve meant
I love Magic's passion for basketball and how serious he takes it. I can't wait for this season to start. GO LAKERS!!!!!
How could you go wrong with Magic's Charisma n Laugh?!
Magic needs a second statue
Jeremy Kim facts bro
In a suit!!!
Magic Johnson is a type a guy that you meet him for few minutes and start talking like you knowing each other form ages
This guy is class MJ was my favourite but I can see why everyone loved Magic! What a leader
Magic ol cool ass 🤣🤣🤣
Officer PoPo kekekeke
Officer PoPo ya thats what the guy that gave him H I V thought
"I would have called u Jimmy b4 Lavar"
Roasted the hell out of him. Magic don't give a damn about LaVar. He better shut up before Lonzo gets traded.
HipHopR&BLover Jon y’all can take ss.......LONZO IS GONNA GET HIS ASS TRADED SOMEWHERE ELSE SOON.
akamiracle 123 What's ''ss''?
HipHopR&BLover Jon Sunday selfie lmao
Barnboi shots fired
Magic Johnson is making NBA/basketball great again!!!
MoFarah'sDust KD and Cousins ruined the league 🐍
MoFarah'sDust how? by trying to create another super team,you do realize it hurts the league more than it helps
No, by being the front man and making basketball interesting to follow again. He brings the old school vibe and values other than sleeping around and catching an STD ofcourse.
I was born a Celtic fan, and Larry has always been my guy, but I love Irv. This is a super interview. I learned(or was proven) so much about the NBA today.
The king of no look passing
Taking shots at lavar I love this
Magic was throwing some shade. Johnson has got lots of B#$ls. LOL..
Safe to say Jack Nicholson will be at a lot more games next year.
Fatty McGee he was there every home game
Better believe it. Lakers game is the hottest ticket in LA now.
Magic got that personality tho. That was part of his game. My FAVORITE Magic quote is when he told Jordan before the game " If you don't turn into Air Jordan we gonna blow you out today." That's hard af.
Please keep bringing magic back, his attitude and vibe makes me smile and happy!
So Much Charisma.
Magic, the official King of LA! 👑✨
Kings of LA
1970s: Kareem
1980s: magic

2020s: magic again
2030s: Tupacs return?
I'm in my bedroom watching this yet I can sense the positive vibes oozing from Magic
Magic is awesome, such an energetic and positive guy! I remember when I heard he ha HIV in the early 90's, thinking he'd die in a few years. It's great to see him still here over 25 years later still happy and healthy!
I give a lot of credit to the fact that he was an athlete. Probably saved his life.
Look at that smile. smile😁
Paulette Hammond-Duerson he’s so positive
Magic would be my FAVORITE uncle so fun and positive
youngbullkyle hiv positive?
Broken Down Tractor dude lol
Waaaaait a minute.
Pay for my school 😂😁
Broken Down Tractor lmaooo
Don’t trade the young core for Kawhi Magic!!! Young Core>Kawhi
eL BangBang hell no kawhi the real deal no disrespect
Kawhi Leonard was just traded to the Raptors.
eL BangBang kawhi was traded to the raptors almost a day ago, catch up
Yeah, there is a whole season to go he can still be traded at the deadline
eL BangBang hope khwai thing doesn't turn into Paul George 2.0
Love How he mentions Larry. They must still be great friends after all these years
crazy to watch this now den when it was before the season started smh
Keep talking about your young core... that got traded 😂
This didn’t age well, also happy to help you find an old comment
10 minutes video interview on jimmy kimmel live. wow first time.
matt bomer how long are they usually?
matt bomer
this ain't the first "OR" the last time .. stop exaggerating
Magic's green is representative of the Lakers turning a new leaf, and of environmental renewal - the new SoCal feeling and implementations of the Cal Clean Air Act.
Asparagasso Brocollini Lol, but yeah
Asparagasso Brocollini He is also a Spartan.
you're full of bullshit lol
BULLSHIT
Asparagasso Brocollini lol
I love Magic Johnson. He's sooo freaking down to earth. And his smile is contagious. 💖💕💋
Lebron James analyzing every player is just mindblowing. 😱
But I wasn't surprised. He's that kind of competitor.
Magic talking like he gonna go play the warriors himself. Prime Magic and Bron with 1 other solid player would crush the Warriors.
Prime Magic is the BEST PG in the history of the NBA. Pair him with Bron and someone like Paul George, and we're talking championships.
Magic, LeBron, Lavar. Take it to the bank.
problem with that combo is they both need the ball, and are quite similar players
Magic just beat Larry Bird as an NBA executive. Landing LBJ is more impressive than anything of an Acquisition that Larry Legend did.
OTCS Nobody is going to the Clippers
A Ramírez And nobody thought KD was going to the Warriors but Jerry West still did it.
Larry don't care about success. He just likes to drink and fish. He loves the game. That's enough for him.
Larry was executive of the year or something right? I think he had his team in the finals and everything with way less possiblilties and recources in Indiana than Magic in LA. Magic has some catching up to do still, just signing a big star to the Lakers is not enough.
Jochen Schütz yes also a coach of the year also think about it who wants to sign with indiana
Magic has so much wisdom
Being from LA and a lifelong Lakers fan, Magic is truly the king of Los Angeles. He's always so upbeat and full of life and energy, it's easy to forget that he has a serious illness due to his positivity and zest for life.
Magic johnson a very postive man and smart and a great legend
Positive? Too soon my guy (get it? Lol HIV+)
I’m ready for the season to start tomorrow!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
?
Magic's suit is killer. that pocket square and tie combo with the wide peak lapels is tough.
This dude is electric!!
CxsG90 why
I love when jimmy doesn’t talk about trump
this guy said "i woulda called u before i called lavar" LOL
Great interview! I see Jimmy channeling his Howard Stern...only wish he had more time with Magic.
lowkey one of my biggest influences in life, Magic always inspires me, much love to and all time great!
I just love this man
Magic is such a great story teller.
🐐.
💯
you mean michael jordan?
Past ur bed time youngster. U never saw Magic play or else you wouldn’t say such silly stuff. Nite Nite!
Koala_Penguin no okay
Saad aziz 😂
Magic Johnson has an infectious laughter, what a fighter, what a legend #RESPECT
Love magic johnson his always smiling and always have a positive attitude one of the greatest of all time
He's my favorite person in this world outside of my own family.
i want magic to be my uncle
at 0:00 magic johnson wants to shake jimmy kimmels hand but jimmy kimmel doesnt want to and magic plays it off smooth.
No one even noticed
Wow
Magic is just that one person you always Love to hang out, charismatic,humble,smart,friendly,entusiastic...
I LOVE Magic! LOVE his laugh too! 😂😂😂 I miss watching him play! 🏀🏀
Great interview and insight guys thanks for sharing the journey of this new chapter 👍🏼🗝🔓🎨🎬
Bravo Magic!!!
how can you not like Magic! that smile and laugh!
This man is the most humble person that played basketball in history of the sport. And he is a legend. To do a bridge between, he is the Ronaldinho 10, the magic, the wizzard, the enchantment of this sport.
Lavar ball diss is the headline from this interview lol
Jordan Tirado I can see undisputed making a 20 minute segment. Are lakers already out on the Ball family? Joining us now is Chris Broussard. Chris, what do you think?
You know Chris Broussard took the first plane back just to discuss this!
Magic didn't say anything LaVar don't ALREADY know > as far as WHO'S in charge > where the Laker's are concerned
LaVar can take his son (ball) and go home
pun intended
Magic about to bust out that jacket 😂
Chris Maxson Too swole
1k Senatus He actually lost a lot of weight from working out and eating right
HULK
Good move Magic. Now we’re champs again. 💜💛💜💛
My father is a business partner with Magic, their companies work together, so flippin' cool!
Wazup LAKER NATION
THE CHAMP IS HERE!!
THE CHAMP IS HERE
NothingToo Spiffy next 2 years
NothingToo Spiffy 💯
*The King is There
DJD &c. Indeed
@Nothing Too Spiffy Should have clarified-as a Clevelander. Cheers and best to the Lakers, Angelinos
Magic don't age..... he's the type of guy that when he laughs, you'll start laughing LOL!!!
Normally, I can't stand listening to sports figures for more than a minute, but I think I could listen to Magic forever.
It's so ****ing difficult to dislike Magic Johnson. Love that guy!
Kallermo I am more of a Larry Bird fan.
I gonna bring 17 banner this season... #dontsleeponme
Lonzo Ball nah
Lonzo Ball . Lonzo ball is a bust
Brandon, 10-7-7 are a bust's numbers? Interesting...
Lol Funny video i mean when when warriors and rockets a thing they not making to the finals
Lakers Fan Since July 1st 2018 u laker fan
Magic, " I would've called you first before I called Lavar Ball, trust me." High five Jimmy Kimmel.
Magic is the best 😂
How he started laughing at the implication of Lavar 😂😂😂
Great interview. It gave us an inside look into what went into recruiting Lebron. Plus it gave me more or of an perspective on Lebron's mind. His mind for the game in particular.
"That would have been an expensive pee"
Missed an opportunity for an easy Trump joke there.
this guy is a real life spencer strassmore #ballers
You can't hate MJ. Epitome of THE Laker.
Magic Johnson class is genuine
