Mike Bresnahan: What role did LeBron have in Lakers signing Lance Stephenson, JaVale McGee and Rajon Rondo? “I learned from Dr. Buss that you should always include (star) players,” Magic said. “When (former GM) Jerry West thought about bringing a player in, Dr. Buss would call me, call Kareem.”

Robertson grew up in a segregated housing project in Indianapolis and dealt with racial discrimination and economic inequality. Robertson played in a generation when stars like Abdul-Jabbar and Russell fought for social change and were outspoken about civil rights. “Years ago, they [athletes] didn’t say anything because they couldn’t say anything,” the 12-time All-Star and former MVP said.

B/R: Is legacy only about rings? LeBron has been to eight straight Finals—no one has done that since the 1960s Celtics. Doesn’t that mean something?

And I’ve played against Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, played against Michael Jordan. I don’t think any of us have ever seen anything like what we’re witnessing.
