Magic Johnson Knew His VALUE Before They Did

You should be aware, young man, that we haven't settled on a pick yet.

That's cool. I haven't settled on a team yet.

But he's not opposed to a fair offer either. Are you, son?

This is a draft, not free agency. Choice is ours. He goes where he's told.

Or I go back to school, turn pro next year for a different team. I'm thinking $600,000.

Ha ha ha ha.

Look here, son. Lew Alcindor is the league's biggest star. Korean. Same difference. He's also one surly, son of a bitch negotiator. And we closed at 6.50.

That's why six feels cool. I mean, for now. Plus tuition in the summertime so I can finish my degree in four.

And you can work your way through school, young man, just like I did. just like I did.

Well, I see Mr. Cook.
