Magic would be tGOAT
Magic is #2 at the moment. Lebron will surpass him soon
This is obviously off topic, and I know its nearly impossible to compare the 2. But I think Kareem> Magic. He is the 2nd greatest behind Jordan

I look at this way.
I always said - if I were to start an NBA franchise...the one player I would pick for my team (like grade school) - it would be Magic.
Even if Jordan was a better player...I'd pick Magic...there was something about how he controlled a game and made average players awesome...and his attitude was the best in NBA history..."it's winning time" - from high school to college to the NBA as a rookie - the dude knew how to win.
So comparing games - LBJ to Magic? LBJ has some magic in him and he has come into his own...but look at the history...I'd still take Magic over LBJ - even though LBJ has taken over the modern NBA and has a better offensive game. But make no mistake - when his teammates faltered - Magic could take over as a pure scorer...as he did in numerous playoff games scoring 40+ points.
There will never be another guard like Magic - his body, his size, his mentality, his ability. I think we now take him for granted. But a man his size to play point? And to dominate like a center from point?
Football, basketball, baseball, etc...Magic is the greatest field general in sports history. As Larry Bird said..."I always wished I could play like Magic...he's just unbelievable...the best I've ever seen."
