He is comedy killer numero uno; I loved magic as a player, hate him hate him hate him on air. It's like you and your friends are sitting around laughing and then somebody who sucks and can't take a joke walks in and ruins it.
Magic is too much in bed with the Lakers to be objective. I discount every thing he says. I agree, get him out of there.
I do like Magic generally but I think he's too used to being the center of attention. When he was recently on The Best Damn Sports Show Period, the regulars let Magic talk and talk and talk; and they fawned over him like he was a minor potentate. So it would stand to reason that he can kill chemistry in a regularly-established group.
