The new HBO series “Winning Time” is a fictional account of the Los Angeles Lakers’ “Showtime” dynasty of the 1980s and the personalities behind the team that grew into arguably the greatest in NBA history.
However, some have criticized the series for not being accurate.
One of those critics is Jerry West, the Hall of Fame guard for the Lakers in the 1960s and early 1970s who was a pivotal member of their front office in the ’80s.
