Los Angeles Lakers legend Magic Johnson is quite a renowned team owner. It’s a known fact that the 64-year-old is stern when it comes to that side of the job. However this time, the 5-time champion took a step further to share a harsh criticism on his team, that too on social media. Unfortunately for LeBron James, who was counting on Magic’s team to make the King‘s prediction come true, the $6 billion franchise betrayed expectations in a blowout loss.

Well now, the Johnson-led Washington Commanders are facing the wrath from all sides, even from their owner. What harsh take did Johnson share?

The Commanders were 2-2 before their game against the Chicago Bears today. The Bears, who were on a four-game losing streak, took full advantage of the Commanders to get their first win of the season, beating Magic’s side 20-40 on their home turf. Now, Johnson’s team is 2-3 and will need a lot of patchwork to sustain the heat in the NFC East. 

Magic Johnson has been an honest reviewer of the game on his Twitter. When his team failed today, the 3-time MVP did not hesitate to blast them.

Johnson shared, Tonight the Commanders played with no intensity or fire. We didn’t compete in the first half and got down 27-3 heading into halftime.”

The Commanders, led by Sam Howell, tried their shot at a 24-point comeback. Sadly they still lost by a 20-point difference nonetheless, which fueled their owner. Johnson further shared his frustration, It was too big of a hole to climb out of and that is why we ended up losing 40-20.”

It is Johnson’s first time as an NFL owner and he has made it clear he will not be going easy on his team. In the meantime, let’s see how the Commanders failed LeBron James
