Magic Johnson and LeBron James

NBA legend Earvin "Magic Johnson" explained in detail how he brokered the $154 million dollar deal for Lebron James to come and play for the Los Angeles Lakers. Magic, who is the current president of basketball operations of the Lakers, jokingly said he wore green during the interview to pay homage to Larry Bird. And then, he went into the details of how during his big meeting with Lebron he was able to negotiate what many are calling one of basketball's biggest moments in history. "We did our homework," Magic said. "And we had a strong argument for him to come join the Lakers." That deal, one of the most expensive in NBA history, is a 4-year deal for $154 million dollars. And Magic says he did not hesitate on giving Lebron what he wanted.
