IIRC Magic was spending something like $25,000 a month on drugs that almost anyone else would not have been able to afford. Thank goodness the science has advanced to where it's basically not a deadly disease anymore. (For those in US, I should say)

Depending on the day my all time favorite is either Magic or Alonzo Mourning so I am all for Magic and being able to afford all the drugs.

Magic is definitely one of the greatest ever. What do you think about comparisons between him and LeBron, or him and Luka Doncic?

I haven't watched basketball since Big Zo retired. So really know nothing about LeBron or Luka.

There's a game on in about 30 mins that should be pretty good

I always thought Dino Radja had a cool name too.
