[Magic Johnson] Just watched the USA Men’s basketball team play Germany in the FIBA World Cup and I was very disappointed we loss 111-113. Now instead of playing for Gold we will be playing for Bronze.

Safe to say Earvin Magic Johnson was disappointed, I wonder what the rest of the 1992 Dream Team think of this. After all, they also helped globalize the sport.

    might be the first time ive seen Magic’s tweet writer make a typo

  2. Atl-Fan_FTS

    Maybe they should take players outside of their personal favorites?

  3. joshdej

    Surely he is taking the piss at this point right?

    Magic always teaches me something new. Should give the man a talk show.

    To be a bit fair tho, todays international game is worlds apart from back in the 80s and 90s, and only getting better…. If u ask me, so many international players on these teams can play in the NBA no problem, it’s just the lack of opportunity and it’s hard when USA has the best talent . Only real way an international players can really stand out he has to be an absolute unicorn.

    Can’t wait for his analysis for Commanders games

  8. fuckitiroastedyou

    Magic now would get more boards than JJJ

  9. jtruth9

    There is no way he’s not trolling us at this point

    This is the most “Thanks Magic” post I’ve seen in a while.

  11. CabbageStockExchange

    How does someone as charismatic and charming as Magic, be so utterly generic and bland at the same time

  12. BiscayneBeast

    They are gonna get beat by Canada as well, so no Medals for you.

  13. georgiosmaniakes

    Yes, that can happen when you lose in the semifinals.

  14. HeatSavings61

    This is the first time I’ve questioned whether or not he’s doing this on purpose.

  15. Oozeinator

    Surprised he didn’t throw in the time and date

    The Perd Hapley of sports analysis strikes again.

    He really tells how it is no fluff just fact

    there will be night after day ~ Magic Johnson

  19. TremendoSlap

    Caption Johnson at it again, just summarizing life

  20. TrashAssRedditAdmins

    It would be way funnier if he gave these takes like 3 to 4 days after something happens.

  21. Kevinfrombase

    Magic hates how he’s portrayed in winning time but he should be happy. They make him look a lot smarter in the show.

  22. Magic Johnson writes tweets like artificial intelligence that is trying to talk like a human but can’t

  23. Glittering_Cod_7716

    What’s funny is if Ja could control himself from flashing guns and Zion could control himself from eating I think those two alone make the tournament a breeze for us.

  24. warzone_afro

    Everyone would assume these were written by ChapGPT if he wasn’t already doing this since twitter started

  25. MildlyInsaneLBJStan

    Never change, Earvin. Never change.

  26. Away_Championship_49

    Y’all just don’t understand Magic, like, come on.

    Magic isn’t tweeting to hardcore fans (I also have issues with that concept)

    He’s tweeting to the old golf grandpa that used to follow the NBA and just wants a quick snip of information, or to the random fan, be it a housewife that just casually follows ball, or the overworked shift manager that just randomly follows him on Twitter. You don’t understand his objectives

  27. SuckMyBirdy

    HIV starting to work its Magic again

  28. None of USAs best players want to play bruh I’m over this narrative
