Magic Johnson Loved Playing Against Dr J in the Finals 🤾🏿 | @AllTheSmokeProductions #shorts
Magic Johnson joins the All The Smoke crew and talks about what it was like for him to play against his childhood idol, Julius Erving aka Dr. J, as a rookie in the 1980 NBA Finals. Magic was starstruck taking the court with Dr. J and he can vividly, as only Magic can demonstrate, still recall what was going through his mind when he was witness to two of the most iconic plays in NBA history: when Dr J cradled it for a huge breakway dunk on teammate Michael Cooper and when Dr J did a reverse layup on the baseline but turned into Luke Skywalker in the air. Much love to Magic for telling this story, Dr. J for paving the way for the NBA we know today and Matt Barnes & Stephen Jackson for always crushing it on their podcast and not only having the best guests but also being great interviewers that allow for these stories to be told!
