Magic Johnson

No body came close to this dude when came to court vision except for maybe Stockton. Could have taken any team to the finals by himself, best passing/scoring guard in history.

Dude, with the number of assist Magic put up night in and night out he actually averaged close to 50 points a game, but that is not what made him great. What made him great was his ability to make everyone one around him better. Nobody has ever did this better than Magic. Sure Jordan did, but he was not on the same level as the Magic man. Individual talent and scoring power goes to Jordan. All around player from end of the court to the other and taking your team to another level goes to the greatest basketball player of all time. Earvin Magic Johnson!!! Do some research and see who leads in all time triple doubles. Jordan does not even come close to Magic. Argue with me, I dare you......

Magic Johnson is the consummate team player and a leader on a team full of all-stars. Without Magic they are like the Mavericks... great team no real victories! Magic is the best point guard to touch a basketball and winning the championship that year without Jabbar should tell you Magic never needed the help that Jordan required... clutch shot take Jordan clutch game take Magic!

If you take each player and make a team with (5 Jordans on the same team or 5 Birds) then a team with 5 magic's would be a pretty good team. Magic changed the game (with Bird) and was in my opinion the most complete basketball player ever to play the game. Greatest player and team player of all time.

Could play position and did, and win. Jordan didn’t win anything until Larry and Magic were gone.

He lead Michigan State to its first ever NCCA championship. A year latter he added to his achievements to upsetting Docter J and the multitalented 1979 76ers to surprise ever the biggest of optimist as Kareem Abdul Jabbar, one of the greatest scorers, missed the game with an injury.

He would latter on win 4 other NBA Playoff Championships, open numerous basketball clinics through out USA to develop kids potential and ensure the growth of the game.

Magic embodies what great people need; the ability to turn good player into great players, the ability to turn okay teams into incredible teams, the ability to turn an okay league into one of the most dominant sports league ever.

In short Magic was, is and will be Mr. Basketball for ages to come. God bless Magic for making me a better player through his book and a more humble and amicable person both on and off the court.

in one game, he played all 5 positions... I seen him throw the ball from one end of the court to the other on a buzzer beater and make it.. I love to watch him play
