Should we add "Often compared with Stephen Curry" in the same sentence in the lead as "He is often regarded as the greatest point guard of all-time." or not? Here are some sources for the comparison.
Ambiguous statement in the introduction. Were the players protesting against Johnson (for example, saying he didn't deserve the MVP award) or in support of him (for example, saying he was risking his health by returning to play)? Billfalls (talk) 00:00, 26 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Magic Johnson was 6'7-1/4" in socks at the 1992 Olympic games. If you look at any photograph or video of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson together, Magic is easily 2" shorter than Bird, who was listed at 6'9", but was actually 6'9-3/4". 66.186.107.210 (talk) 08:08, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
