Dr. Jerry Buss Introduces Jerry West and Pat Riley as the Coaches of the LA Lakers

[@wiserguise]

Very tragic that WINNING TIME got cancelled. It’s the most artfully made and realistically cast sports series or movie, ever.

[@rayvintankerson6818]

Didn’t know it got cancelled that’s sad to hear

[@bmyles1006]

Yes. Whoever did the casting for that show deserves some type of award. Every single character looked exactly like their real life counterpart.

[@Jakey_SPA]

Agreed!! Literally one of my favorite shows ever! Sad to see it cancelled. I really hope that they can bring it back! 🙏🙏💛💜

[@michalus09]

This show could go on till Mike show up.

[@JBtakes]

Can’t believe they ended it. Such BS!

[@Luke-cu7bf]

Adrien Brody is literally perfect as Pat Riley

[@sumavargas3147]

One of the best castings of all time

[@NoahCastaneda]

I hope we get a Pat Riley movie at some point in the future with Adrien Brody reprising that role. I know it's a long shot, but Pat Riley has been absolutely interesting his entire life. When he resigned from the Knicks with a fax and became the Heat head coach 😂 Running the Heat to championships just like he did with the Lakers. Creating a whole culture that still has the Jimmy Butler Heat competing for championships. Incredible.

[@GABRIELA-ACEVEDO.]

Most of the cast in general has been spot on, but Brody, like you said has been perfect.

[@lphillips6204]

No doubt about it!

[@culturefragrance]

I’ve always felt Brody was a good actor, but I could never buy into the character he played. But man, he was born to play Pat. Lol.

[@PapaTrice360]

Thanks for this upload. I had to pause the scene on Winning Time to search this up. The guy playing Jerry West is HILARIOUS 😂😂 😂

[@culturefragrance]

I did the EXACT same. This show is gold man 😂

[@warrantyvoided]

Watch this clip again and take notice of the southern humility and calmer demnor of the real Jerry West. That man on the screen is not an accurate portrayal of a very nice man. None the less, fake Jerry West is really hilarious and does provide a comedic "character" to the show.

[@PapaTrice360]

@@warrantyvoided I beg to differ. The Jerry West that the general public knows is how he carried himself in public spaces. Even in this scene he keeps a cool demeanor (the Jerry we’re familiar with) but Jerry West behind the scenes could very well be erratic and uptight as we know for sure Jerry West had very bad nerves to the degree that he couldn’t even watch the games and stood peeking out from the tunnel for decades. The way this series is portraying Jerry is right in line with a nervous wreck of a man who’s extremely uptight and filled with angst.

[@warrantyvoided]

Jerry and his lawyers have a difference of opinion too.@@PapaTrice360

[@deebeautiful2614]

I paused it too lol

[@barneywiggins5621]

Adrien Brody is PLAYING this role. BTW…I’m here because of Winning Time.

[@kzrsosa]

Same here. I can’t believe how true to reality the show is, which honestly makes you questionable all the prior discourse from the involved parties saying everything was overblown or not close to accurate.

[@RonnyJimenez1]

Everyone

[@censorthis-uu6cc]

Couldn't give a shit about basketball but WT is such a good series. Seeing Abdul Kareem Al Jabbar character I said "he looks exactly like the big dude Bruce Lee fought from 'Enter The Dragon' " - little did I know. The resemblance of the cast to the real characters is uncanny.

[@senorfish2503]

​@@kzrsosayou're saying the parties that are involved and said it's not accurate are wrong?

[@mikeshula1948]

I’m here because of losing time 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻

[@plainbagel9192]

Jason Clarke, John C Reilley and Adrian Brody are killing it in their respective roles

[@rho008]

The guy playing Magic, Kareem,Michael Cooper, and especially Larry Bird are also doing phenomenal jobs. They are not even veteran actors, and Brody is an Oscar winner.

[@sleepydean781]

Actual facts the cast them perfectly

[@Therealkingk909]

It’s still insane that winning time got cancelled so abruptly

[@snbond80ify]

Just watched this scene. Damn what a show.

[@eleazarsanchez4775]

😊 Winning time 2, episode 5 😲

[@bkboy2384]

It'll be canceled because ppl are stupid

[@theportugueselegend]

One thing nobody can criticize in Winning Time is the casting. It's 90% perfect for everybody and the fact that people are getting annoyed on how they're portrayed tells me more than half of that portraying is accurate. I only hope they do Winning Time: Kobe and Shaq when they finish this one

[@toddgaak422]

I want more Bird. And I want more of the Bird/Magic friendship.

[@AndreAdvocate]

Who's getting annoyed?

[@diablo_911]

Of course they are getting annoyed because they don't want ppl to see their dark side. Winning Time being canceled is a big shame. Poor decision, no long term vision

[@theportugueselegend]

@@AndreAdvocate Jerry West, Magic Johnson, Kareem, Pat Riley, basically every Laker

[@osu3167]

Yes I'm surprised they didn't cast Larry bird and Jerry buss black with the way Hollywood is nowadays.

[@lakendagrandberry]

Just saw this scene from Winning Time. Man the accuracy. One hell of a casting job

[@qs4177]

Thanks for posting this. Just watched the scene and wanted to compare. It might be dramatized (winning time) but it does try to stay as close to reality when it comes to those press conferences

[@FALL-LAFF-7477]

I think it's because it coming from the eyes and imagination of the OG writer of Showtime story... the writer itself maybe a Sport Writer...

[@Surgeon806]

This scene in Winning Time look prettt accurate for me. The Lakers were pretty dysfunctional initially....they got it together.

[@GABRIELA-ACEVEDO.]

Just watched this scene on the show. Now looking forward to Adrien Brody turning into *"Godfather Pat".*

[@TMthe33rd]

The last scene with him calling out the whole team was my favorite from this series

[@redcat10]

I think I speak for all when I say thanks for posting!

[@eleazarsanchez4775]

Yes 🤓

[@CarguyEd5150]

I have to say I’m really enjoying this series winning time and it’s one of the reasons that I’m here. I wanted to check the accuracy of the real press conference compared to the one on winning time and it’s pretty spot on. I have to say the characters are well played and John C Reilly, who plays Jerry Buss has done an amazing job, but so has everyone.

[@poochszn]

Here from Winning time

[@Kalooookalay]

Been searching for this all day 😅! They even had Adrien Brody in the same outfit!

[@canes4ever162]

They cast this show perfectly

[@MrAitraining]

That's a great owner right there. Picked his best mind (jerry west) and said you decide and it's on you.

[@stevenhall4165]

Who else paused to come look this up 😂😂😂. I just wish the camera would’ve shown Paul walking out with his boxes😂😂

[@rebelneycha]

Me too 😂😂

[@flubb831]

I did exactly this yup

[@hgfxjnn]

Yup😊

[@imjfarley01]

This is so crazy it actually went down like this!!

[@bsebola6899]

Winning Time, what a show!

[@EmmGee99]

Legends. All of them. Every single one

[@cesartrujillo8813]

Awesome show winning time and I do believe it’s about 90% accurate they just don’t want to admit it.

[@BostonsF1nest]

All the behind the scenes drama and details have been well documented in books written about the 80’s Lakers era. So yea it’s pretty easy to see what’s legit and what’s not

[@tommyfu9271]

It's not close to accurate. It's entertaining but they make up so much bullshit.

[@AjelandroMontana]

Adrien Brody is amazing as Pat Riley!

[@morningwaves]

This series is so great, I hope they continue to the Shaq/Kobe era and maybe do a series on the Celtics and Bulls.

[@ibetudidit23]

This post is on time. That was a crazy scene.

[@wilbertrobles1123]

America needs more Winning Time ! Bring it back !

[@joseperezmusic3748]

I’m glad someone found and uploaded this, I literally looked for it on Sunday and it wasn’t on KZbin. Glad you found it

[@colincampbell6465]

Winning Time proves that fact can be stranger than fiction.

[@azdbuk]

I can't even remember Adrien Brody's name whilst he portrays Pat Riley. He is too much "Pat Riley" for me to recall Adrien Brody's name.

[@fernandovivanco]

LOL I was looking for this, I couldn't believe that's how it went down, but it was exactly like the series 😂

[@retiredmindset9589]

I just saw the show. Thanks for posting.

[@32ndStreetStudios]

This is great and so is winning time! Love this

[@Nachobeerman]

This show is so well cast great performances across the board

[@sshaxy860]

Dude winning time is soooo fucking good. Amazing how accurate certain scenes are. If they made it up, they made it up perfectly

[@walg8408]

Love the depth that Winning time has allowed, love to see more Bird revealed

[@charleshorner7832]

Thanks for sharing this and yes I am also here because of the best show on television winning time

[@melon23whitestone]

I was looking for it ;) thx

[@bkboy2384]

Brody and segal are so good its crazy

[@1might1]

Paused Winning Time To Compare Accurate Events To The Series.. Well Done 🏀 ⬇️

[@shaunv2933]

We are all here because of winning time.

[@andrewblancheiii4464]

The disclaimer says the show is a dramatization, but it still has me stopping every 15 mins to check how authentic the show is. It does help when they ocassionally eeassure us though like this scene and Bird playing in jeans for the college scout.

[@BostonsF1nest]

Some moments are just so outrageous it’s hard to believe it actually happened

[@Purple_319]

Thanks! I was looking for this video to cross check the scene from Winning Time, especially since they said it really happened!

[@derekmartinez7223]

These guys had no idea what they were doing. There was a lot of improvisation.

[@drmontano9414]

offensive coach?… Gotta love Winning Time season 2 episode 5

[@dannychu2014]

Thank you for uploading this! Love to be able to bounce back and check for accuracy from the show.

[@alejorodriguez7382]

Unbelievable, the show is amazing.

[@IceManLikeGervin]

Winning Time is more on point than not... Magic is most likely upset because it is telling some hidden truths about him, in my mind.

[@zkid001]

Jerry buss part of this video is great. He had faith

[@catdaddy4547]

And it just got cancelled smdh😢

[@paulvon2378]

Example of why Dr. Buss was such a great owner. He let people do their job without interference

[@harrisonball3339]

Damn that was accurate

[@ANGELSLVME]

I’m loving JOHN REILY SHOWING HIS CHEST HAIR LIKE JERRY BUSS😂😂😂😂

[@danteex9677]

Guys start asking for the series to be picked up. We want Season 3

[@anthonyiglesias2809]

Adrian Brody absolutely nailed his role as Pat Riley. The resemblance is crazy

[@bigboi3512]

I'm here because of Winning Time. Every time I watch an episode I'm looking it up to see if it really happened.....and yet agin it is proven, it really happened

[@OmarGibson-c9r]

I think Brody is playing the role projecting an emotional transparency that RILES would never convey ... Riley always has a smile like he knows something WE don't ... Whether Rome, NY or NY, NY ... He wore the mask ... Brody is playing it with the mask off ...

[@daveparker5541]

WINNING TIME HAS ME HERE

[@vevecrusader9126]

Winning time was such a good show

[@DKLabs99]

Literally every actor looks like the person they portray

[@mitcht2599]

Watching Winning Time and when they said this actually happened, I had to check and what do you know? wowzers.

[@jaylindunham335]

“All my niggas got that heat i feel like Pat Riley “- Weezy 🔥🔥

[@TheRealDeal1438]

I remember many ppl were mad at Magiic during that time and he always maintained he had nothing to do with it

[@brandonmerritt9045]

I'm 😡 this show got canceled it was the BEST thing on TV we need a sports series. I'm tired of the same Killing, Lovey Dovey or Zombie shows that people tend to love This show was different outstanding and the acting was SUPERB!

[@Oldmanhenderson12]

I gotta say, the casting department did an amazing job.

[@genesisgeronimoofficial]

RIP Jerry West 😥🙏

[@angelocalypse_now]

Accuracy of the show aside, the casting on this show was phenomenal.

[@RobertoAndrada-r6m]

Winning got me here

[@ANGELSLVME]

Here from WINNING TINE❤❤❤❤

[@datsapaddlin]

They go on to win the championship after all the drama. The 80s Lakers were a true series in the making.

[@scottaznavourian3720]

This is a steinbrenner move 😂

[@dylanblanco2199]

crazy how it was real!

[@johng187]

Winning Time ..Thanks

[@cbuilding3980]

I’m so sad this showed was canceled 😢😢😢

[@mikesternmike]

How the hell did they f****** cancel winning time? I don't care if 80% of it didn't happen!!! This show is so goddamn entertaining they have enough to go all the way into the mid-90s. What the f*** was Netflix thinking?????? Let me say it again what the hell was Netflix thinking?????????PS same goes for the actor who played Jerry West I don't care if it was over-the-top from the real West punctuation mark he's so goddamn entertaining he could have his own f****** spinoff!!!!!

[@troy4692]

HBO, but yeah I agree

[@Zack29810]

wasn’t a Netflix show.

[@senecashabazz4192]

KZbin is amazing 🎉

[@Dawgbyte04]

Everyone is here because of winning time

[@qwesence1]

Wow! Epic!

[@snapszer1]

Yo man gimme that “Jerry West offensive coach” type beat

[@rjm789]

Makes sense that Josh Aronson is involved with the Showtime Lakers

[@UnicowBoySlots]

Winning Time made me google “Jerry buss Announces Pat Riley as Head Coach”

[@rrmond]

Winning Time got off to a rough start but Season 2 is great.

[@Zack29810]

Season 1 was way better than Season 2.

[@snmnmidld6203]

They casted the show fucken perfectly

[@gabrielcanejo187]

I Can't Fucking Believe they canceled the Show!!

[@kweisi2204]

I hope they keep winning time going atleast 4 seasons

[@dangelorivero514]

just got canceled damn

[@adrianwikinson]

Like everyone in the comments, I'm here because of winning time 😂

[@jingqi9106]

I don't think Jerry West wanted to be the head coach, and Mr Clutch preferred that Pat Riley be the head coach even though Jerry Buss gave West the authority.

[@SGkubzy]

THEY REALLY DID IT. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Maliphresh]

Bro where'd you find this???

[@RConn55]

Where can I see the actual full press conference? Been looking for it everywhere

[@williamoleary9330]

Freakin unbelievable that this happened this way…. Only in LA….smh

[@gibbytrowery9088]

Fresh from the show

[@youngcarta86]

Jerry west said FUCK NO and meant it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@loudlong]

The real life incident is just as absurd as portrayed on Winning Time.

[@zerimar26]

Paul Westhead tried to pick a fight with Magic and lost that power struggle. Had he listened to Magic and Riley, maybe he would still be the coach of the Lakers. And who knows if Pat Riley becomes a coach later on for the Lakers or for some other team.

[@loftonrembert3877]

Jerry wanted no part of that circus 😂

[@classynoginilr7891]

I grew up near Philly. I hated turtles necks😏😂

[@thehashtagtrashbag]

No need to tell us why you're here. Its the same reason why everyone else is here and also the same reason this was uploaded immediately after the episode lol

[@josephmcmanamon575]

Buss had no friggin clue and if not for West and Riley straightening this out the Lakers wouldn’t have shit Magic or No Magic
