Hol le chit.
It got within 2!
97 Lakers
95 Sixers and then a super greasy bounce gave Chones the hook shot for +4 again.
103 Lakers
101 Sixers with the ball! Nix missed and they never got close again.
Never said he didn’t chase women…Also lol, Pearlman's book said Kareem chased es at The Forum Club too, he wasn't just going home being Good Jungle Fever Muslim after the games.
Kobe didn’t party with Shaq Fox etc and still was chasing women

The scoreboard actually showed 123-107
I’m still trying to figure out how it went from being a close game down the stretch to double digit lead
It's what actually happened in the real game though. Philly started turning the ball over, jacking up terrible threes, giving up three point plays, they just completely fell apart at the end of that game. Like Mul roll said, it was actually 103-101 with 5 minutes left so the show lied a bit (they had it 104-103 with 3 minutes left). Was surprised that nasty foul on Michael Cooper was real though went I went back and watched the actual game. It happened a little earlier but they had to use smelling salts to wake him after Darryl Dawkins knocked him right into the floor. Though Magic was doing a moving screen that might have knocked Dawkins off balance and into Cooper on that play. But it was as ugly a hit as it looked on the show, like McHale on Rambis or Rodman on Pippen bad.The scoreboard actually showed 123-107

Season 2 start date unknown at this time.
How many more seasons? If this keeps pulling ratings, Barnes says they could go all the way into the 1990s and beyond to Shaq and Kome.

I hope they don't go straight to the Shaq-Kobe era
I want to see Adrian Brody as the head coach, in the last few episodes his Riley mannerisms were on point; I also want to see how they are going to dramatize the Riley-Lakers messy divorce
Tragic conveniently didn't go much into details on that topic in his ty Apple TV show
Noo.
Even if that happens it appears the Snaq Kome era by Winnin Time Continued would be years down the road.
"There's so much stuff that happens in between—like a Shakespearean tragedy. With the players, there's the Larry Bird-Magic Johnson rivalry, the Celtic-Laker rivalry, we've got a lot more story to tell."
Was funny in Episode 10 watching Fredo get faced while being completely ignorant about basketball. If only this show continued on to the 2012-13 season.
They will shine Kobe in the best light now he’s dead. Shaq, mvpau, KFC, Kwame, smush, snitch et all will be dragged through the mud.
Has the story leaked yet why this show hates Westhead so much?
Easy target since he did eventually end up in over his head and the players hated him the next season? They really do make him look like though and elevate Haywood like Westhead was just being a to him.
Some good takes from Paul Westhead here:
Video interview: (at time of interview only 1 ep of Winnin Time had played, thus no comments on the insecure high anxiety spin that Winnin Time fabricates.)
Link:
Winning Time, Coach Paul Westhead and The True Story: The Dr Brian McDonough Show - Bing video
Cliffs:
Did not slow down the fast break, rather comments that Magic was def not recovered from his knee injury in 1981. Infers that he himself (Westhead) wanted to keep the fast break going and ic was having problems because of his injury.
Riley: Way ahead of his time with video prep for strategy and games.
Notes that he must be one of the only coaches in any sport to be fired after winning 5 games in a row.
West: never saw the Angry Bird portrayal HBO makes.
I'm all ears. Above video has me questioning how many players hated him or if it was simply Magic who got Westhead ousted.
Westhead addresses in part the Haywood issue and said it was basically all season long he was a problem.
Also Westhead said the coaching part of the team was rather easy, the agents wanting special treatment for players was a problem.
Not according to Pearlman, said Westhead was pissing the team off changing the offense at the beginning of the 80-81 season long before Magic got hurt. Think I'd take his word as more unbiased than Westhead's.
Pearlman says the same and that Westhead got the players' respect by benching Haywood. Funny thing is Haywood thought he was another star on the team to the point he changed his number from 24 to 31 so he could form a big three with Haywood 31, Magic 32, Kareem 33. Still thought he was the dominant player he was in Seattle and not the up druggie he was on the Knicks.
