Magic and Bird Courtship of Rivals review

Magic Johnson was born for the spotlight and always knew what he wanted to do at a young age. There was a lot of racial tension in his school while he was growing up but he was seen as the guy that could fit in every crowd and he pushed through this tension and everyone liked him. He just shrugged this tension off. A reporter gave him the nickname magic and he stuck with it throughout his career. Larry Bird was magic's competition and he was picked for a team that played against magic johnson. He was seen as a hermit he didn't like interviews and he was raised tough. So he was seen as the complete opposite as magic. Bird played for Indiana state and Johnson played for michigan. This movie showed that they were complete rivals but could play on a team together and play well with each other. A little healthy competition can go a long way. I really enjoyed watching this story about these complete opposites come together and play on the all american team.
