‘Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty‘ is a sports drama series that follows the Lakers’ rise to dominance on and off the court in the 1980s.
Max Borenstein and Jim Hecht designed it based on Jeff Pearlman’s novel “Showtime.” The first episode introduces viewers to Jeff Buss, the Lakers’ new owner, who has high hopes for the popular NBA team.
As Buss assumes command of the team, Earvin “Magic” Johnson, a fresh rookie, finds himself amidst the glitz and glam of Los Angeles.
The chapter concludes with Buss signing Johnson to the Lakers, laying the groundwork for a future period of domination.
The decision, though, foreshadows a number of issues that the Lakers will face in the 2017 NBA season. As a result, fans must be looking forward to the next episode’s drama.

Spoilers for Episode 2 of Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty
‘Is That All There Is?‘ is the title of the 2nd episode of ‘Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty’ season 2, which will focus on Buss’ attempt to establish a new philosophy at the Lakers.
His unorthodox personality will usher in a slew of significant changes for the squad, and not everyone will be pleased. Despite possessing a top-notch point guard in Norm Nixon, coach Jerry West is immediately dissatisfied with the team’s decision to sign Johnson.
Buss, on the other hand, may try to smooth things up by giving West entire control over the team’s playing style and practise.
Meanwhile, Claire and Jeanie are expected to give the Lakers a new look and enhance their brand. They may, however, differ about the team’s future course.
As a result, the two may find themselves at odds. In addition, the new episode may give us our first taste of the long-running rivalry between the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers.
