Monday was a busy day for Magic Johnson, who did the rounds on various ESPN shows, waxing poetic about everything from the state of the Lakers to mistakes with the 2021 roster to what he thinks would remedy said mistakes. Whether or not you actually agree with Magic's assessments, considering he famously left the team high-and-dry with a surprise resignation (along with a gasoline fire and a lit match), the potential self-interest feels hard to ignore. Or... apparently not... since everyone does ignores it.That said, were his points actually correct?Plus, Clippers head coach Ty Lue lobbied for Laker fans to back the crosstown rival, because it's all about rooting for L.A. Respectfully, that ain't happening. But there is an obvious choice for Laker fans looking to cheer on an alternate team for the next two rounds.Hosts: Andy and Brian KamenetzkySEGMENT 1: Before addressing the validity of Magic's comments, the Kamenetzkys note how everyone is willing to ignore the disconnect of him even commenting on the team at all, considering he bailed. Kinda weird, but at the end of the day, everyone loves Magic, and always will.SEGMENT 2: What about the actual substance of his criticisms? Can Pelinka's moves be properly evaluated, considering the postseason injuries to LeBron James and Anthony Davis?SEGMENT 3: Ty Lue suggested Laker fans root for the Clippers. It's likely an unsuccessful pitch, but the Kamenetzkys know which of the remaining teams Laker fans should logically get behind.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
