After a successful debut season, Winning Time: The Rise of The Lakers Dynasty is making a comeback to the HBO screens, and basketball nostalgia fans couldn’t get any more excited to see this sports biopic of a team that made a legacy in the NBA.
Winning Time: The Rise of The Lakers Dynasty tells us the story of how the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team came to be one of the most successful franchises in the Western Conference of the NBA; it takes us to the locker room, to the backstories of the athletes, coaches and how they managed to get it through thick and thin to come up on top.
Now with a second season and exploring further into the success of the Lakers, we will see how the Lakers will bank on their trophy and how things are going to get complicated as they battle their rivalry with the Boston Celtics.
Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty Season 2 Preview
‘Winning Time’ follows Jerry Buss as he buys the Los Angeles Lakers and selects rookie Magic Johnson in the first season. Magic establishes himself as a key member of the team during his rookie campaign and forges a solid alliance with captain Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
The Lakers made it to the 1980 NBA Finals despite a number of obstacles and a complicated coaching situation. In the season’s finale, Magic takes the team’s place as NBA champion despite Abdul-Jabbar’s injury absence.
The 1980–81 Lakers season will likely be the focus of this new iteration; on that season, Paul Westhead and his assistant Pat Riley took the Lakers’ helm. And taking it from there, as well as exploring how the rivalry with the Boston Celtics evolves, that’s what will probably be the main subject of the second season.
It might shed light on Magic Johnson’s injury’s ramifications and the team’s changing playing approach under Westhead. The rivalry between Larry Bird and Magic and their relationship with Cookie, on the other hand, might be highlighted more.
