      Magic was my favorite b-ball player growing up and I loved Bird's playing style as well. This movie was excellent and had me reliving so many wonderful memories as well as the heartbreaking news when Magic was diagnosed with HIV. Their relationship is so special, too. Something that will never be seen in pro basketball again.
