Is that what Jeanie did with that PPP loan she got for small businesses? Produce a return serve for winning time? Oh, that's right, she paid it back after she got s*** for it. Nevermind. Is that what these slaps are worried about more than running a basketball team? We don't need a history lesson on the Lakers team when Dr Buss bought the team every other year. We already know what happened.
Winning Time is fiction but somehow the real life persons depicted there felt they need to produce these counter narratives
how many lakers documentaries/tv shows have come out in the last 6 months? winning time, the one about magic, and now this? i'm assuming this is the one jeanie/magic are behind and the reason they were sh** talking winning time?
Jeannie in fact said some of the scenes in Winning Time were accurate especially the one scene where Dr Buss talks to Magic on the court. It's Magic, Kareem, Norm and god knows everyone else who expected exact reality when that never happens in a tv show. It's funny cause the creators of The Dropout didn't get that much angst for telling their story. This doc/series looks great and hopefully is 100 times better then the Magic series which was very very disappointing. I think Antoine Fuqua can make a damn good doc though and hopefully he does.
It was fine but it was boring and even with 4 eps they seemed to skip over alot of stuff that happened in his career. The 81 playoff implosion, the Westhead firing and his part in it were not really mentioned. There was alot of Cookie and his family, which is fine but it made some of the eps drag along. They went into his losing th e84 finals and how hard it was for him but glossed over 83, 86 and even 89. I had hoped he would've talked more about the Riley firing and the 91 season as well. Even though Montana had 6 eps in his docuseries, i thought his doc was much better done and went far deeper into his career then Magic's did.
Welcome to life as a Laker fan. Love the tv show, Spectrum's doc on the 2000 Lakers and the 30 for 30. The trailer for this doc looks good, i hope they can go in depth as it looks like all the buss kids are involved.
i've enjoyed the first two episodes, but it's pretty much just like watching winning time again at times. funny how all those guys sh** talked winning time when their portrayals were pretty spot on
I was too young when Dr. Buss was leading this franchise so this documentary really shows me how smart of a business man he was.
last episode was my favorite so far. you never really hear about those mid 90s teams so it was cool to see what went on behind the scenes
