With the NBA Finals, the tensions between Lakers and Celtics reach a new peak in 1984, and between Magic Johnson and Larry Bird.
The Lakers win another championship. But after humiliating defeats, they have to regroup to take on the Celtics.
Superstar Earvin Magic Johnson and Coach Westhead clash. Team owner Jerry Buss orders Jerry West to pick up the pieces.
Despite his record-breaking new contract, Earvin continues to butt heads with his teammates - and his domineering coach.
In the 1970s, Larry Bird rises from a small-town boy to a position as a sought-after player. Later, Earvin puts pressure on Buss.
Pat and West try to woo a new star after Earvin's performance is not met with satisfaction. On the other hand, Buss woos characters from his past.
As the Lakers enter a new season, Buss bets big on his players and children; an on-court injury threatens the team's future.
