Magic Johnson

[Wizard]

Well played tonight young man - shut up a hell of a lot of people tonight.

He stays and for one reason and one reason only - HE STANDS UP WHEN IN BIG GAMES!!!!!

He was great tonight and was even better in the 06 finals series.

 

[chinggis77]

Has been good a few weeks in a row now.

Tall, athletic, agile big men with good skills don't grow on trees.

 

[silverscope]

Played a ripper tonight and has been decent the last few weeks.

But it's hard for some posters to look past their hatred.

 

[Jetau]

Massive respect to MJ tonight. Probably the best game I've seen him play. I'm sure I wasn't the only one who would have preferred Kepler in the team tonight, but credit where it's due - MJ delivered.

 

[Wizard]

Jetau i honestly ALWAYS prefer MJ - Kep IMO is bloody useless.

 

[Clay Davis]

Kep IMO is bloody useless.

Started so well then exposed your inner ******.

I agree with OP. Best game of Johnson's career.

 

[Chops_a_must]

Let's not go nuts here.

Was pretty ordinary in the first half, and was doing his best effort to run away from the ball.

Made that strong lead early in the 3rd, looked like he wanted the ball again, and rest is history.

Top second half.

Chronic under arousal. Need someone to stir him up before the game.

 

[Bradesmaen]

About time he made a step up.

 

[Alfonz]

Quite good in the second half, and most importantly at some crucial times. Abysmal in the first half.

 

[Stagger Lee]

He stood up, and it was valuable. It was a solid performance, and you feel like he is trying to repay the teams faith in him.

 

[longsuffreosupp]

Was good tonight, keeps it sweet and simple when the pressure is on.

 

[Freodoc]

One of his better games for mine. Needs to back it up next week...

 

[Dormammu]

A standout performance, always a problem for the opposition to match-up. I don't believe the criticisms of some of his performances in the past have been unwarranted though, and I reckon he would agree.

Here's hoping that he maintains the very impressive level he achieved tonight

 

[postmanpav]

Quite good in the second half, and most importantly at some crucial times. Abysmal in the first half.

The above.

Stepped up at some important times in the second half and helped us immensely. Goal from the stoppage at the 50 was particularly important given the situation.

 

[ozziekano]

Huge in the second half I thought, been building some good form in the last few weeks.

 

[Kram]

Kep IMO is bloody useless.

You really are a complete idiot.

 

[blue gunslinger]

Congrats to the bloke. After a year of turmoil certainly showed his talent v us. Really had nobody to combat his combo of height speed and skill.
