Shouldn’t even be a question. It’s Magic, and it’s not even remotely debatable.

Magic Johnson. Close the thread.

Magic and probably will remain that way for a very long time. Forgot his name but I’ll go with dude from the spurs at second best or Webber

Better question is who is the worst Michigan-born NBA player? Assuming that the player was at least on a roster for a full season and no two-way contract bullshit.

Well it’s definitely not magic. Every player on this list is better than him. McGee is what magic always hoped to be.

3rd might actually be a fun debate, Magic is 1 and Iceman is 2

Why you gotta put Mr. Tillman up there

How is this even a question?

It’s Magic and not even close. Watching the Lakers/Buss family doc on Hulu, Magic said his plan after being drafted by the Lakers was to play his rookie contract then sign with Detroit.
Dr. Buss wisely built a strong personal relationship that convinced Erving to spend his career there. I imagine the lifestyle certainly helped, too.

Rick Barry is from Michigan?

It’s magic Johnson and I hate saying this term but it really isn’t close
thisguy161
But why did you put him in a pistons jersey to ask this?

Magic. List didn’t include Jason Richardson, Glen Rice, Derrick Coleman, Terry Mills, Roy Tarpley, Rudy Tomjanovich and many more cats.

The Pistons tried, I think they offered their entire roster for Magic

Disrespectful to Magic and honestly to IceMan too
from_whereiggypopped
john long belongs on this list with some of the other inclusions..but would land far behind magic
cindad83
There are guys like Howard Eisley, BJ Armstrong, Charlie Bell III, Shane Battier, Voshon Leonard, there is a whole host of guys, who carved out serious careers…

Shout out to javale even being on this list lmaoooo

No mention of Chris Webber?

Hardy has looked great recently but only time will tell lol
herbaliciouswwweed
Don’t need the rest of the list after Magic, but since there is one, where is Battier?
King_Artis
Surprised Jason Richardson wasn’t included
But it’s obviously Magic, dude was the face of the league at one point and still talked about too this day. Next is might be either Iceman, C.Webb or DBook, leaning Iceman though

Yea the answer has to be magic

Chris Kaman !

Magic is the easy winner in my book, and I am a Wolverine fan. Dude was on another level and could play every position.

1) I don’t think Rick Barry is from Michigan, 2) magic hands down is the best, 3) Kuzma in no way should be on this list (Jason Richardson, Dan Majerle, and my little sister are all better, 4) I think Glenn Rice is # 2.

Done after picture number one. Couldn’t have put him in a sparty jersey?
