The Lakers season, defined by any shot at making any type of playoff, could come to an end Tuesday, with a loss in Phoenix combined with a Spurs victory in Denver. It would be a stunning result, and the end of a monumental collapse in Februrary and March (the Lakers were a .500 squad as recently as January 25). And if it happens, Magic Johnson, viewed by many as the GLOAT (Greatest Laker of All Time) will be there to throw dirt on the coffin. Magic, who has a documentary to promote, made the rounds on ESPN Monday, crushing the Lakers for not going with DeMar DeRozan instead of Russell Westbrook. Hey, fair enough, but Magic didn't stop there. He noted that DeRozan's agent hand delivered his client to him, and therefore the Lakers (because Magic greased the wheels, it should be noted). BUT THAT'S NOT ALL! Magic also claimed that the Lakers could not only have had DeRozan, but still traded for Buddy Hield, and kept both Alex Caruso and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. The scenario Magic presents was a literal impossibility, beacuse of the rules governing sign and trades, the salary cap and so on, but details have never really been Magic's jam. So why does he keep doing this stuff? What does it mean that Jeanie routinely consults someone who lives to undercut the team's management, and now its star player? (Magic, fairly, blamed LeBron for orchestrating the deal.) HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: It could all end tonight. If it does, Magic will be there throwing dirt on the coffin. SEGMENT 2: Breaking down the craziness of Magic's claims, from the cap math impossibilities to the hypocrisy to the stuff that actually was fair. SEGMENT 3: Why does this keep happening? Why must the Lakers always be a big dysfunctional family? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
