The second season of the HBO series “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty” has begun, and it focuses on the 1980-81 through 1983-84 seasons. That was the time period in which the Los Angeles Lakers looked to go from a team that merely won an NBA championship to one for the ages.
To tell the whole story of the Showtime era, there will have to be at least one more season of the show. But according to Jeff Pearlman, the author of the best-selling book the series is based on, the series may stop with its current season.
