I think the most important think he said which was probably the simplest and that was to basically show humility, do not believe you are indispensable because once you start to believe that

The National Basketball Association (NBA) has transformed over the many of years as an organization and a brand, into a multibillion-dollar business that draws thousands and thousands of fans to each and every game. Many contributing factors have made the NBA what it is today, but the main cause of this gain in interest is the ultimate rivalry between two remarkable players, Earvin “Magic” Johnson and Larry “the Legend” Bird. The battling rivalry amongst these individuals is comparable to the feud of Coca Cola and Pepsi, or, Star Wars and Star Trek. During the era of modern television, and the still and ever present racial bigotry, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird helped redefine the game of basketball and popularity of the NBA with their

Magic Johnson’s influence in sports and success as a businessman is unrivaled! Before the rise of Johnson, professional athletes were primarily focused on influencing sports through their talents and skills. In the late 1970’s, early 1980’s Johnson’s business “saviness”, changed sports forever.

With a focus on urbanization and revitalizing inner city areas, he promoted his business agenda. Initially, he encountered many skeptics. Many investors struggled in separating Johnson’s basketball success from his ability to conduct business (Brown).

Basketball, a sport that began among 18 men in a YMCA, has blossomed into a global business played by over three hundred million people today.

In the beginning, the game was played with a peach basket and a soccer ball, the first contest was played December 21, 1898. The NBA, or National Basketball Association’s current net worth is about 635 million dollars, infinitely more than ever expected by Naismith who was simply tasked to make a distraction for the rowdy youth of the church at the time. Basketball is one of the most interesting sports in America because of it’s immensely fast growth, social media presence and incredibly popular superstars.
