Everything in sports is occultic now...even the Magic Johnson drama. He was Lakers president from 21 Feb 2017 - Apr 9 2019...777 days. Aleister Crowley number. Wake up folks and turn to Jesus Christ before its too late.
I really appreciate his reasoning behind this. He just wants to be a mentor and an advocate for people. And he doesn't need to be in an official position of authority to do so. Good for him.
Ken Smith the business he owns is just an investment company he really doesn’t need to answer phone calls or be at meetings for his investment company so it’s obvious he didn’t want to work
@@Dakidpepe For such a good dude, father...he is a cancer in basketball. Coaches get fired. Whole teams get traded. GM decides to quit because it's a circus. Lebron brings lost of baggage in terms of the hype and media around him. KD was right.
@@brando3048 Haven't seen Skip and Shannon in at least a week. But I did take it from the movie. If YOU want to be emotional over some damn likes...go ahead. You sound like the typical millennial. Apparently you have no job and watch the show daily to know every word Shannon Sharpe says. Feelings and psyche soft and fragile as tissue......Born in 98 I'll bet.
C S “good dude”. You mean egotistical right? Like yeah I might not be able to prove it but I swear he’s all about himself the school and all the other shit is for his image I swear. My opinion
Even though most comments are just memes, Magic seems like a good dude with his head on straight. I can't be mad at him for leaving if he wasn't happy.
He wasnt happy because his decisions that led up to that point destroyed the team but he didnt want the blame. Im a huge lakers fan but magic took an all time L this season
He got the most influential player in the NBA to join the Lakers which has attracted all the talent to the team, and we're winning again. He did his job and this team is in the right direction. Let's hope mgmt helps grow this winning system to prosper.
Magic knows that the Lakers returning to a championship level team will be a struggle. He’s saying all the right things, but the pressure is probably affecting his health adversely
So basically he stepped down because he didnt want to be the one who Fire's Fluke Walton and misses being The Big Shot Jock in basketball who all the young guys love.
Having to fire people and deal with hurting someone's feelings is part of the job. Who knew? "I joined the army as an infantryman, but had no idea I might have to kill someone!"
He's feeding you bullshit. He isn't leaving because of that. He's leaving because Rob was on bullshit and he knows deep down, he isn't cut out for the daily grind of being pres
Rheal Nyce no its called a tragic Johnson alert. The only thing magic is good at relating to basketball is being a player. He sucked as a coach and destroyed the team as president of basketball operations. I love my lakers to death, but this is definitely a tragic Johnson alert 🚨
Rob pelingka said reggie bullock and mike muscala is key pieces to their success to make it to the playoffs😂😂😂and now magic step down as a president of basketball i guess i took a blame of rob pelingka because of the words that he said after trading deadline
I agree with you but if the relationship was as he said is I would have spoken to her probably in close doors before I ran to the media or at least just got on the phone with her in the morning and left the voicemail or something before I went to the media but that's just not opinion. In my opinion she should have been the first one to know because when it is all said and done the Lakers is her project she's the spearhead of it all. Not many people would have done what magic done they would have just left people out in the cold financially without a job or a career to fall back on but knowing that he had a life outside of basketball operations he did not want to affect Luke Walton's or any other Laker livelihood so right thing to do is to just bow out but in my opinion the boss lady should be the first to know.
Look I love Magic, he's my favorite player ever. However, Magic's always ran away when he didn't want to deal with something. His long lasting relationship with Cookie he put her through so much crap, his time coaching the Lakers, his talk show, his return as a player and now as a GM. He said he is a closer and yet he bails with all of these free agents available, he said he wants to help players like Ben Simmons, yet what about Kuzma, Ingram or Ball. Bottom line he should have never taken this job period and we could have avoided this circus. He could have stayed in an advisor role/pitch man for free agents. End rant.
I make life changing decisions almost everyday being a SSG,in Airborne.It is tough,and I do cry at times.But I have to do it,and it is part of my job. You did the right thing Mr.Johson.Airborne out!👍

You make him out to be the good guy when in reality he was the bad guy - Lakers wanted to keep him but had to get rid of him b/c of the drama
100%
@Tracy Sharp You forgot they they got Lebrun - Magic said clearly he doesn't regret any of the trades he made
DLo... he’s doing what he’s doing in the East... BECAUSE of Magic.
DLo should thank Magic...
I really appreciate his reasoning behind this. He just wants to be a mentor and an advocate for people. And he doesn't need to be in an official position of authority to do so. Good for him.
thats wrong, he sucked at his job and copped out
Magic makes quitting look so cool!!!

Lakers: Get an all star player to sign to the lakers and play with Lebron
Magic: I quit

nah i think i ve heard an interview about him will quiting lakers if didnt make playoffs (i know my english bad, but i hope u got what i mean )
Lebron aint shit wake up

Lmao
Ah shut up kid
Jordan D if hr said that shit niggah would be lookin to kill poor Paul
Pierce is on that heavy cali OG. Get real Magic best player ever
Magic is the reason the Lakers have been great for a few generations. His presence and gravity for the team are immeasurable. The greatest ever!
You can't fault a man for wanting to live his life the way he wants. When the game aint fun anymore, what's the point? Many blessings to you Magic!!
he accepted the job along with the responsibility and bolted when the lakers got pregnant

Magic know he can manage the lakers team tho.
He will be back on TNT tomorrow talking about LeBron and how he's no longer in his top 5 of all time
He’s really not a top 5
@Intelligence Injection had LeBron played like half himself they would of ablevirated the mavs but shit happened and fuck you

Not telling Jeanie is low, how can you say shes your sister and you love her and do her like this?
Magic's version of brotherly love is kind of cold
Magic knows that the Lakers returning to a championship level team will be a struggle. He’s saying all the right things, but the pressure is probably affecting his health adversely
He sounded like Denzel for a moment
4:49
you’re welcome
So basically he stepped down because he didnt want to be the one who Fire's Fluke Walton and misses being The Big Shot Jock in basketball who all the young guys love.
Guess so
Lebron got us in this mess
I think he wanted to fire him, but Jenny wouldn't let him
So I think he had enough
Yup
He wanted to fire Rob the GM too but he know jeanie buss wouldn't allow that so he said fk it I'm out!
He couldn't step on people and fire folks. Therefore he resigned. That takes courage. Magic has a huge heart
He has heart fo sho... but as a president u gotta be hard headed.. if u can't make the hard decisions its not for u then
Magic heart is so huge he fucks bitches until he gets AIDs, he is a fucking liar and a fake, he cant own up to the fact he SUX at GM

It’s obvious, Magic wanted to fire Luke Walton, and Jeanie didn’t. I think that’s why he’s stepping down.
Why you think that?

Then he would trade lebron

No! Let's get something that's actually qualified for the fucking job for once. Stop trying to make great players something they're not. Damn
Oh man. Magic is so real, you can tell it hurts him when a chapter of his life is closing. Gotta love this dude.
His first mistake was drafting Alonzo Ball and skipping on Simmons.
drafting Ball was a mistake, 2yrs in NBA hasnt played 82 games yet
This comment aged well lol
I can't wait for Shannon's response
Holy crap!!!
Magic is putting relationships over business. I applaud him. He should call Jeanie though😂😂😂
