Magic Johnson Twitter on Lakers Players

Magic Johnson, on Monday, Jan. 7, took to his Twitter account @MagicJohnson out of pure frustration to lambast the Lakers players for making excuses for their losses. Johnson began by shifting the blame for the team’s failures away from coach Mike D’Antoni stating it is the players who are responsible for the Lakers’ 15-18 dismal record.

I’m tired of blaming the coach, the responsibility is on the @Lakers players.

@DwightHoward has to stop complaining and start dominating on offense….@paugasol has to stop playing soft and get back to 18pts & 10rebs!

As @Lakers fans we demand and expect more once you put that@Lakers Purple & Gold uniform on!

All 12 @Lakers players need to understand what it means to be a member of the @Lakers.

Above everything else the @Lakers players need to start having fun on the court!

Coach D’Antoni has to start teaching better pick & roll defense and better defensive rotations…He also has to make He also has to make sure that every @Lakers players role is defined.

The @Lakers big men have to stop giving up easy offensive rebounds…the perimeter players have to start getting back on defense to stop the fast breaks of their opponents!

@KobeBryant is having a an MVP type season but the team needs him to be a better leader…@SteveNash scoring more and throwing more assists will help the @Lakers!

All 12 @Lakers players need to understand what it means to be a member of the @Lakers.
