Description

When Magic Johnson joined the Los Angeles Lakers in 1979, he ushered in one of the most successful and entertaining eras in NBA history, one that came to be known as "Showtime." The Lakers won the NBA title that season and four more in the next eight seasons, dominating the sport as few teams ever have. In this 25th anniversary of the ascension of Magic and the Lakers, Michael Cooper, one of the "Showtime" stars, recalls the team's rise to the top. One of the greatest defenders in the game's history, Cooper, now the coach of the two-time WNBA champion Los Angeles Sparks, provides a lively, behind-the-scenes look at the 1979-80 Lakers. "Coop" relates items like the Lakers' transition from Magic's first day of training camp to the relationship that he developed with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, his star partner during the team's run to five NBA titles; how the Lakers lost head coach Jack McKinney to a severe head injury only 14 games into the season and stayed together for replacement Paul Westhead; the way All-Stars,like Norm Nixon and Jamaal Wilkes made major contributions while often playing in the shadow of Magic and Kareem; and the historic final game of the 1980 NBA Finals against Philadelphia, when Magic started at center in place of the injured Kareem and led the Lakers to the championship. Fans will find anecdotes not only about the players and the games they played, but also about how "Showtime" was orchestrated by owner Jerry Buss and team executives Jerry West and Bill Sharman helping a diverse group of individuals blend their talents and personalities to create a basketball powerhouse.
