The King s Army is hard to beat the superstars to join! Lakers legend Magic Johnson was also the leader of the group!

In 1982, Magic Johnson became the Lakers' new offensive core and led the team to win the championship and crowned the FMVP. It seems that everything is moving on the right path, but in the arms race of other teams, the Magic are also unable to turn the situation around. This issue will trace back many years ago the NBA to learn about it.

debuted in his career and won the championship twice and won the FMVP twice in three seasons. Such a career can be said to be difficult to replicate, but as a Lakers' legend, Magician has also joined the empty-slashing group. This situation may not be due to the Lakers' own problem.

After three seasons of growth, the Magic officially started a career of averaging double-double and quasi-triple-double per game this season. Although his average score per game is only third in the Lakers, his 10.5 assists are not only the highest in the Lakers but also the first assist king in the league. His outstanding performance also made him start to reap higher personal honors:

The Magic was selected for the best team in the 1982-83 season. This is the first time he was selected for one in his career. Team, although his average score per game is the lowest in the first team in the All-Road team, his assists, steals and shooting percentage are the highest in the best team;

This season's Magician has also begun to become a strong contender for the regular season MVP, with his 15.58% vote rate in third place behind Moses Malone and Larry Bird. Although Magic Johnson has not yet reached its peak at this time, the best point guard in history is truly getting better from the beginning of this season.

Due to the playoff system at that time, the defending champion could skip the first round and start the semi-finals directly. Therefore, Magic Johnson led the Lakers to the finals smoothly in the West. The Magician averaged an exaggerated 42.9 minutes per game. Although he still ranked fourth in the team in the average score, his average rebounds, assists, steals and even frontcourt rebounds were the first in the Lakers team. For Magic, he has achieved the ultimate in scoring.

Of course, Magic Johnson is not unable to score points. If he is needed to help the Lakers win by scoring, it means that the Lakers' offensive system is in a collapsed state that forces him to score points and lead the Lakers to win. This is reflected in the finals:

Magic G4 played in 48 minutes and scored 27 points, 7 rebounds and 13 assists, but the Lakers still lost and were swept out by the 76ers. He scored high scores and high assists throughout the game, but still could not lead the Lakers to win. This is the experience of the Magicians killing the group leader in those years.

Although he failed to defend his title, the final result was not the Magician. This result was more due to the existence of Moses Malone, the best player of the season. This season, Moses Malone left the Rockets and joined forces with Dr. J. Irving, who won the MVP, championship and FMVP.

Jabbar has been in the basketball world for 20 years but cannot get any advantage in front of Moses Malone, especially in terms of rebounds. With the Lakers' lineup generally unchanged, the key to the Magician's becoming an empty-handed center is to kill the group leader.
