Go WINNING TIME is accurate so far.
This episode was better than the show on HBO max lol
I’ll die for you “MAGIC”, love to death, once again ALL THE SMOKE
Nah Jack & Rachel 👀👀👀👀👀
This is an Awesome interview 🙌. 🙌
I thought Jenny the daughter created the cheerleading it was in the movie
This was legendary 🔥
Blessings, ICON 🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
Love Magic 🏀
Kaybee Must be punching the air seeing how much this podcast has grown since he went viral 2 yrs ago. 😂 He over there beefing with lil YouToobas!!! 😆
This was episode was awesome some many helpful words of encouragement 👏🏽 🤎🖤💯
I was never a Lakers fan because I loved MJ & them Bulls but I've always admired Magic I'll never forget when I was 10yrs old& he announce that he was retiring due to HIV.. that day I had on my Magic t-shirt & I remember watching it on the news as my mother sent me to the store to grab some things for the house..I just remember tears just pouring down my face.. I may not be a Lakers fan but I will "ALWAYS " admire & love Magic…THANK YOU FOR ELEVATING THE GAME 🏀🏀🏀
Huuuuuuuuuaaaaahhh..lmao…magic straight OG’d them nigas..lol…straight foul caller..
This shit was litttyyyyy
One of the best interviews yet! Keep doing y’all thing!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥‼️
Need a part 2 about todays basketball and players
Amazing show! I would’ve love to know his version of Isaiah Thomas not being in the dream team. Other than that I think this is a great show! Loved every moment of it!
Magic the Coolest ball player of all time. Could listen to him talkin for hours
Favorite basketball player, greatest Laker of all time.
Man Magics energy, smile, swag and just pure personality is what keeps him too cool for school. I love this dude frfr… Not many people in the world like this man. I could be around him all day, just straight POSITIVE ENERGY!!! Salute this man for life💯💯💯💯💯
My condolences for the loss of your brother Stak. Imagine if Magic did pull off signing Lebron, Kawhi, and A.D. Looks good on paper but you would still have 2 stars playing maybe 20% of the time, no bueno. But if they could stay healthy, that team is a match-up nightmare for anybody!
How come no one ever stands up for the Mexican community?
Magics aura is like no other man, his life is so crazy! He had the highest of highs but also got the lowest of low and is prevailing still. So crazy and it’s always a good watch/listen whenever he’s on any show
