Rachel Nichols, Zach Lowe, Kendrick Perkins and Scottie Pippen react to James Wiseman leaving the Memphis Tigers basketball team and focusing on the 2020 NBA draft, and (1:15) Magic Johnson saying he’s not getting enough credit for the Los Angeles Lakers’ success in the 2019-20 NBA season behind LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

    Pelinka is 100x better GM than Magic ever was. No drama, made the trades and getting pieces. Magic quit on the team during the bad times so don’t try to take credit for the good times. Magic didn’t even get Lebron let’s be real, Lebron was coming no matter what for his movie, his family, life after NBA. Y’all think Lebron was going to Clippers? Magic was a great player but let’s just be real, terrible as GM and tbh terrible in his “businesses” as well.

    It’s quite ironic because RP ASSEMBLED this team over this summer. Magic brought Bron here, but the supporting cast this year is the reason why the Lakers are playing as well as they are. Magic is still the man but he doesn’t deserve any credit aside from bringing in Bron

    I give the credit to Lebron. Everyone loves to say Lebron is the GM right? Lebron pushed to trade their young guys for AD. I think it has worked out!

    Will someone please tell Lebron to go with the baldhead. That baldspot is getting bigger. Those shorts are too tight also. Lookin’ like spandex.

    He got Bron which was the hardest part but other than that he was garbage as an executive and I love magic but it’s true and when the going went tough when there was expectations for the Lakers he quit.

      LeBron got injured 🙄🤨

      stoic romulan ok and? That fiasco with Anthony Davis was crazy. You gotta keep trade talks under wraps.

      @Inderdeep Singh for what? Fiasco? 🙄You just sensitive to business that don’t concern you.draft picks and players were involved in that trade for Davis. Embrace the new age of media. You the type that would have complained about Moses Malone going to the 76ers in 1982 or Kevin Garnett to the Celtics in 2008.

    If that team doesnt win a championship will magic still be demanding credit?

    I remember Magic letting go Lou Will. Drafting Lonzo Ball. Best thing he did was signing LeBron.

      Do you remember magic getting rid of Timothy mozgov and Lou Al Deng contract?

    Let’s call what it is people, Magic is a narcissist.

    Magic IS THE REASON!! Not a Lakers Fan but this is End game for Lebron.. Lebron dosent want to be MJ, HE wants to be IJ.. MAGIC.. The LA Move was all business for AFTER BASKETBALL.. The Restaurants, Theaters, Owner Of Teams in a BIG City.. Building relationships, Movies (Space Jam 2).. No not “The Meeting” with Magic but “The Culture” of it all That MAGIC indeed and undoubtedly built.. 💯💯

    He Was Coming To The Lakers Brand Regardless? It All Blew Up We couldn’t Land That Dude That Went To San Antonio We Couldn’t Get a Meeting With Any Free Agent Until Jeenie Buss Took Back Control And Brought The Magic Man To Fix It All Up Again…….

    After That Circus Her Brother Had Going On For 5 Years Ain’t No One Was Touching The Lakers With a 10 Foot Pole……..

    LeBron James Was Looking At The Rocket’s, Spur’s, OKC, There Was a Fist Fight For Him Up Til The Last Second, Until Magic Had That Meeting With Him And He Understood The Lakers Are Being Run Right Again……

    And As For Anthony Davis He Paved The Road For That Deal And Got The Pelicans To Get It Through There Head That They Gotta Give Him Up To The Lakers….. Boston Tried But They Knew He Wanted To Go Where His Agent That Got Tight With Magic Told Him The Lakers Was The Place To Be And He Seen The Push Magic Made For Him And Sealed His Heart In LA….. What Did You Clowns See C’Mon Man This Is All His Doing.

    LeBron was coming to LA with or without Magic. Pelinka deserves credit for putting this team together with Bradley, Green, Howard, Daniels etc…
