5.0 out of 5 stars Overlooked year gets a good review, July 17, 2000

This review is from: Los Angeles Lakers 1982 - Something to Prove [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Although it seems amazing that any champion can be considered overlooked, the 1982 Los Angeles Lakers fit that mold. Anyone who knows of the NBA knows of 1980 and the coming out party of Magic Johnson in Game Six of the Finals and how the team pulled together for a special season. That same group of people also know about 1985 and the demolition of the Celtic jinx on the parquet floor of Boston Garden led by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's redemptively dominant performance and Magic Johnson's quiet triple-double. Sandwiched in between those years, however, is a very significant championship year. From Magic's on and off court trauma with Paul Westhead to the inclusion of Pat Riley into the head coaching role and the beginning of Showtime. From the key roles of Bob McAdoo and Mitch Kupchack before such names as Byron Scott or A.C. Green were even around to the stardom of Abdul-Jabbar and Johnson, not to mention perhaps one of the greatest backcourt tandems in Johnson and Norm Nixon. This video portrays a wonderful team that has been lost in the scheme of glamorizing the NBA yet is perhaps one of its best catalysts for modeling the changing of the guard in how the game was played. It is a movie well worth the review of Laker fans obviously but of NBA fans most definitely.
