James Worthy: Jerry West was mastermind of Showtime Lakers

James Worthy arrived to the Lakers as a power, back-to-the-basket forward from North Carolina. Seeing him turn into centers, who helped and stopped him, he sent Worthy to a camp to work on facing-up. That, along with his personnel moves and personal attention he paid to the moods and lives of his players, made him the mastermind behind the Showtime Lakers to Worthy. He talked about it on CLNS Media's Showtime with Cooper podcast available here: https://www.clnsmedia.com/erp-podcasts-category/showtime-w-coop/
