Does it really matter which one to buy and play so I can understand the whole Team Magman stealing peoples Pokemon better?

I already have Pokemon Black 2 but trying to figure out if Black 1 or White 1 worth getting and is the storyline the same for both Black 1 and White 1?

If you want to enjoy the whole story, get Black 1 to go with Black 2. As in all pokemon games the diff between black/white is only in the pokes available and what % capture rates are along the way. B/W2 is a direct sequel--a first for Gamefreak--in that the story continues two years later. So stay with the color game you bought. You will get the other legendary if you do.

Well Even though White 1 has different pokemon I'm still considering buying it for the story so I can understand it better with the thing of Team Plasma stealing peoples pokemon. Story comes first. catching different pokemon based on White comes second

Team Plasma is pretty much PETA.

Pick black or white randomly or if you're worried about specific pokemon you can check bulbapedia or other database for exclusives. Or if you're more interested in the specific Mascot, White has Zekrom (the black dragon/lightning one) and Black has Reshiram (the white dragon/fire one)

But yes, I'd play through 1 then 2. 2 takes place 2 years after 1.
