OK to Praise Jordan, but Don’t Degrade Magic

What is wrong with Mike Downey? He writes an article that is supposed to be supportive of Michael Jordan and what he tries to imply is that Magic Johnson is overrated. Has Mike Downey ever played basketball? Magic has never tried to claim credit for the championships that the Lakers won. He is always the first one to say “we” and always exhibits praise for his teammates. Magic gives 100% every time he is on the court. Those are the true attributes of a winner, and anyone who has ever played a team sport knows it.
