Magic can comeback but they need to play good defense in order to get good offense Lakers can go to the championship but without Kobe the lakers would lose Suns there good but they don't play defense that's why they might lose Celtics are being dominant but magic will come back and go to the championship and take their title from last year.

Well, one is Magic Johnson who won an NCAA championship with Michigan State in 1979 and an NBA championship with the Lakers in 1980.
The Lakers did play in the series, but unfortunaly they lost to the Chicago Bulls that year.
