Perspective: Magic Johnson’s stunning bombshell was classic Magic Johnson
Magic Johnson was all smiles Tuesday night as he dropped his bombshell before the Lakers' game in Los Angeles.
— Arash Markazi April 10, 2019 While Johnson’s drama was drawing all the attention, here’s what you missed: Yes, it’s definitely easier to be genial Magic, the guy with the electric smile — the guy no one dislikes or second-guesses. He may be comfortable making hard decisions as a successful businessman, but doing this with his beloved Lakers was another matter. ESPN reports that Johnson and General Manager Rob Pelinka had met with LeBron James and his agent, Rich Paul, on Saturday and gave no hint of what to come.
Johnson said he “had more fun on the other side,” which may have been an allusion to his dalliance with Anthony Davis, the latest in a string of tampering incidents including James, Paul George, Ben Simmons and Giannis Antetokounmpo. He could not, he explained, stand the loss of freedom.
