This is a vid that took over a year to compile and edit. My attempt at a definitive Magic Johnson highlight reel.

Enjoy. If you can't like this one, you got probz.

Nice, you kept the original audio. To put crappy hip hop music over the legendary Chick Hearn's voice would have been a travesty and a disgrace.

Words are not enough to describe the Magic.

One of the most entertaining compilations!

No wonder Kobe loves MJ very much. Not that MJ.

The GOAT debate continues....

Lakers have been blessed by the gods.

-- GOAT point guard --- check

-- GOAT center -- check

-- GOAT shooting guard -- check

Coming soon in theaters near you...

-- GOAT small forward and GOAT power forward...

What an amazing video! Obviously it took a lot of dedication and hard work to put together because it shows. I'm blown away by it!

It's too bad that kids these days don't know how great of a player Magic was. He's the greatest player of all time in my book, and it's still not even close!

Thanks for sharing!

Wow! brought back so many great memories.

His comeback game in 96 against GS at the Forum was something I'll never forget. The crowd stood up the whole game... electric.

Thanks for putting this together. One of the best videos I've seen made of Magic.

GREAT vid... thank you. I can recall watching some of those plays happen LIVE... Had to smile and even chuckle a bit at some of those highlights. Awesome. Those Lakers teams were just that-- a TEAM. They all moved and flowed together and it was a thing of beauty.

Wow! I am impressed beyond words. Beautiful video. Being someone who was too young to see Magic, I love watching old games and highlights on youtube but none of that compared to this. That's literally every 'Magic Moment' that I wish I could have seen live.

Whoa, stickied. I've made it, ma! Thx, DB.

Thx for the comments, I'm starting on a new multi-era vid. Kind of an unorthodox idea I came up with.

I need ideas on any big or unique/interesting looking 3 pt shots by Kobe, Jones, Fox, and Smush (serious). Any ideas, let me know. I'm looking for footage of that left handed 3 by Kobe vs Dallas in 05 (iirc).

So, im watching some of it and keep blinking my eyes all bugging out trying to figure out how he does all that

I realized something too.. Magic helped make Chick great by keeping him on his toes too.. I could feel Chick thinking "how the hell do I keep up with his decision making.. it is sooo fast"...

Great video! It brought back so many memories. The energy level and excitement at the games was unbelievable back then and was all because of Magic. I'm so happy you showed him scoring as well as passing. The younger fans have no idea how good a scorer he was. He could score from anywhere on the floor and against anyone. Many of the great passes you see in the video were made because of his unselfishness because he could of scored himself on many of those plays and probably led the league in scoring. For newer fans that that believe those we his only highlights, they weren't. Magic did stuff like that every game and it was so much fun to be there.

I could watch Magic play all day... he truly is the GOAT.

The vid was good enough to make me come out of lurking status.

Obviously I'm pining for better days today...

WOW, outstanding job NPZ. Great to see the Magic Man compilation.

I wish you turn the comments OFF on the youtube video though, just let people enjoy Magic's greatness rather than argue over a bunch of nonsense.
