"Magic was always..." And Drexler goes into a decent Magic impression: "'Come on, Clyde, come on, Clyde, get with me, get with me,' and making all that noise.http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-ba...8503--nba.html
And, really, he couldn't play much by that time. He couldn't guard his shadow.""But you have to have to understand what was going on then. Everybody kept waiting for Magic to die. Every time he'd run up the court everybody would feel sorry for the guy, and he'd get all that benefit of the doubt. Magic came across like, 'All this is my stuff.' Really? Get outta here, dude. He was on the declining end of his career."
Drexler had played exquisitely in the 1992 All-Star Game in Orlando, although the MVP award eventually went to Magic, who had been added by Commissioner Stern as a special thirteenth player to the Western Conference roster. "If we all knew Magic was going to live this long, I would've gotten the MVP of that game, and Magic probably wouldn't have made the Olympic team."

"If we knew Magic were going to live this long I would have won 1992 All Star Game MVP..."

drexler still butthurt because magic's AIDS cost him an allstar mvp
That "everybody kept waitin' for Magic to die" line is some ether for yo ass.
Past his prime Magic also denied Portland a 1991 Finals bid. The Blazers were stacked that year too...but they made it the next year and got the beat down so it's a moot point.![]()
is he really crying about an all star game mvp? sounds like an accolade only kobe bryant would take pride in..that and scoring les.
Yep his ass complained ... and then he apologized and said he was misquoted.
Damn, and I thought LeBron was the player most butthurt about All-Star MVPs.
WTF does Kobe have to do with this thread?

it sounds like something he'd do, pretty self explanatory

I've been waiting for you to die for like 1000 years
All-star MVP is nothing worth writing home about tbh. I'm surprised by Drexler's comments since he had a very solid HOF career. Went to finals once, an championship with Hakeem, multiple all-star and all-nba teams, shouldn't be class-less like that.
Magic and Drexler like most successful athletes are sociopaths.Magic should just tell the truth on how he really caught HIV.Drexler is Isiah Thomas 2.0
Much of what Drexler said is true tho. Magic, Larry Bird, and Laettner had no business being on the original "Dream Team."
Also, everyone was feeling sorry for magic for sticking it in some dirty 's ass because everyone thought he would be dead by the end of spring.
Along comes the All-Star game and Almighty Stern creates a spot just for him. He wins the mvp not out of merit but on sympathy alone.
If I were glide I would be pissed too
the guy who wrote the passage is saying drexlers words would really benefit from context.
The only legend more annoying than Johnson is Drexler.
