“Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty” is on the cusp of releasing a new season of the popular series based on the Jeff Pearlman book of the same name. In a new interview from Screenrant’s Joe Deckelmeier with Michael Chiklis and Sean Patrick Small, actors playing iconic Boston Celtics general manager Red Auerbach and his superstar forward Larry Bird in the Los Angles Lakers docudrama, the two actors had plenty to say about their Celtics characters.
Set in the 1980s when the Celtics and Lakers dominated the NBA Finals, the duo opened up about their characters’ mindsets and motivations in the series, and how they prepared to play such larger-than-life figures.
