The tampering lawsuit the Los Angeles Lakers received from the Indiana Pacers is quickly becoming one of the most talked about issues in the NBA today. NBA TV Analyst Peter Vecsey broke the news first before taking a shot at team president Magic Johnson on Twitter after his report.

The veteran writer replied to a tweet made by the Lakers legend six years ago against the former. Vecsey then clapped back on Sunday by calling Johnson “dumber than a stump”.

Although nothing has been proven yet, the NBA has opened an investigation to seek the truth on the charges filed by the Pacers. Should the Lakers be found guilty, they could be forced to give up future draft picks, pay a hefty fine, and even be forbidden to pursue Paul George which could absolutely throw a huge monkey wrench on their grand plans for next summer.

Peter Vecsey’s recent tweet could start a fiery back-and-forth between him and the league’s former MVP and five-time champion. However, it may be a good idea for Magic Johnson to remain mum for now, as he at the center of the investigation and could further be subjected to more doubts should he fire back soon.
