‘Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty’ Season 2 Thread | HBO

GREAT episode.


Some of Jason Segel’s best acting work.

Adrien Brody is KILLING IT as Pat Riley. Can’t wait to see him boss up with the slicked back hair and designer suits


One thing I didn’t like was this episode made it seem like Magic DID quit on the team and go to the locker room during that game when he actually stayed and played out the game in real life. It would have made it more impactful to see his trade request had they made it clear he actually played the game.

Also I had no idea that was the first public trade request in NBA history.

Raiderettes didn’t give him aids

He ain't made it to his destination yet

What song was that lady singing in the forum club?

I can sense the pure cocaine through the tv

Marky Mark straight defaced that shyt

It’s gonna be a great juxtaposition from the Magic’s Back episode where the crowd is cheering him and he takes center court, to the next episode where he about to be booed by Laker fans.

 

[NormanConnors]

That Jack Nicholson spot

That Jack Nicholson spot

Even gave a shout out to dude that's always at the game with the hat.

 

[Black Mamba]

This is high level cinema

Jerry Buss said “When your here. Your family”. And MEANT that shyt

I thought it was clear he didn’t leave. How else would Paul have chased him in the tunnel?

I was astounded at how blunt Kareem was about it. Giving daps to the Knicks franchise while still in a Lakers uniform.

Imagine that happening now. The media would have a field day.

Jerry Buss said “When your here. Your family”. And MEANT that shyt

Buss one of the GOAT owners ever, looked after Magic by giving him more bread. 14 million in 94/95 and a percentage of lakers ownership for peanuts when he didn't have too


Lakers owner Jerry Buss gave Johnson the opportunity of a lifetime to purchase a 4.5% stake of the Lakers for $10 million

Although that really did happen I wasn't like it was framed . It happened during the off season after they where eliminated by Houston. Not during the season and certainly not when Magic deal was known about.
