Magic Johnson, I thought kind of came out guns blazing.

If I can't deliver, I'm gonna step down myself.

She won't have to fire me.

I step away from it, you know, because then I can't do this job.

Really intriguing quotes there that he's talking about two summers.

Now, it's only a year, obviously.

I'm really great at math between now and next summer.

And so effectively what he's saying is like, hey, stick with me in this year.

That made me think that he doesn't really know what's going to happen this summer.

But next summer, and absolutely worst, if the Lakers were able to hold kind of their powder.

Remember, don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes.

I think the battle of Bunker Hill, that was what was said as they were coming up the hill.

General Matt Anthony Wayne, we need a fact checker, by the way, to make sure that some of these historical analogies that I'm making here true.

That would be a full time job.

Yeah, that would be a full time job.

But if you are a Lakers fan, if LeBron suddenly calls an audible and decides to stay in Cleveland, for example, and Paul George decides, you know what?

I'm going to stay in Oklahoma City.

People would be renting their garments.

They would be panicked in the streets of Los Angeles after all the expectations about who was going to be with the Lakers this fall.

But the truth of the matter is this, it's a two year process.

And I hope the Lakers would not feel panicked that they would play for a year with a ton of salary cap room or at minimum sign guys to one year deals and be able to get out.

Because next year, first of all, LeBron might stay with the calves for a year and wait because he's aware that he doesn't have a lot of talent that he can surround himself with in LA already.
