Magic on Playing the Pistons & Bulls in the NBA Finals ๐ | @AllTheSmokeProductions #shorts
Magic Johnson joins the All The Smoke podcast and talks about his experience playing in the NBA Finals. Magic played in a nearly unbelievable 9 NBA Finals series in his 13 year career and towards the end of his career, came up against the Detroit Pistons and Chicago Bulls.

In 89 magic played 1 game.
That DETROIT PISTONS TEAM WAS ONE OF THE DIRTIEST TEAM'S IN THE NBA AT THAT TIME!
I'LL NEVER FORGET, "THE JORDAN RULES!"
I KNOW MJ WILL NEVER FORGET IT EITHER!
MICHAEL JORDAN WILL FOREVER BE KNOWN AS THE GOAT ๐! โค
ENOUGH SAID โค๐โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ
I still have that newspaper that was shown in this video. Great memories growing up as a Southside of Chicago native at that time.
Prime bulls would smack those teams PERIOD!donโt even waste your time responding!
Isaiah's better than Jordan
Laimbeer would just slam you ๐ช๐พ๐๐๐
The greats are willing to give props to other greats. A sign of respect for others and confidence in your place in history.
Boricua hispanic indian n black iam.. Pippen n Jordan , but Pippen shot down magic n he say that Jordan was score n Pippen was stoping players to score. Pippen was the best to, rodman Pippen n Jordan was the super team ๐
We been saying it since day 1 gotta give credit where credit is dueโฆ Bad Boys almost 3 peat with out phantom foul on Kareem No Bulls dynasty with out The Detroit Pistons
Crushing to watch but to this day I Think Magic faked the inury against the Bulls. They shut him down he couldnt even get the ball to half court. Or if not they just made him work so hard for every dribble he actually got hurt. If anyone wants to learn how to shut down a player on defense watch the Lakers vs BUlls series start to finish and watch what they did to Magic They won that series with defense not offense. I never saw the Lakers get shut down on offense like that
Iron sharpens iron and becomes Jordan. #MagicDaGOAT #2 Bird #3 Jordan.
once MJ got past the Pistons man the gates opened up
The Jordan rule was brilliant and dirty in an erathat was very physical.
Is LeBron James had to go to those three kings Boston Los Angeles and the Detroit Pistons only position he would play is the victim
TRUTH!
What is that music? I hear it every other video.
Nobody knows who vinnie Johnson is
Didn't really talk about what the bulls did to them.
Start Scottie and bench magic the greatest small forward ever Scottie Pippen made magic tragic Johnson look overrated magic was clowning guards that were smaller than him
Detroit Pistons made Mike step up his game after so many years of losing to them. Facts ๐ฏ
Good night ๐ค from New Zealand ๐ณ๐ฟ
As A Kid Of The 80's, I Can Barely Remember A Time When Magic Wasn't In The Finals!!๐ฏ
You are correct Magic
The greatest era of basketball is gone. I miss those days.
MJ wouldnt be the GOAT if he didn't have to go through the Pistons' crucible. Every platoff series against Detroit back then was the Bulls' version of the SEALs' Hell Week.
Embellishment or not. I love hearing Magic talk about basketball.
that โkissโn BS before the jump ๐
