Topic: Lakers, 1983-1984 NBA Season
Welcome to Los Angeles! It’s the beginning of the 1983-84 NBA season, and amid the glitz and glamour are battles between striking talent and even bigger personalities. The Lakers have won two rings to start the '80s off right, but after falling to the Philadelphia 76ers, they’ve still got something to prove. The Lakers are staring down their formidable rivals, the Boston Celtics, with a 0-7 record in NBA finals appearances. While the Lakers' owner, Dr. Buss, seems to think he has what it takes to win, the dynasty in Boston isn’t afraid of L.A. just yet.
Can stars like Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Magic Johnson beat Bird and McHale? Can the team keep the fans coming in the door and keep their books afloat? Is this team only worth two championships, or are they a dynasty that can live forever in the annals of sports history? Well, they don’t call it showtime for nothing; this should be a fun one.
More information will be released in the coming months!
