The critics of King They would answer that the Cup was in its infancy and was a short tournament.but Strength It’s proportionate to its brevity, and therein lies much of the benefit of the Lakers’ “23,” the high pace sustained during the final weeks that saw them survive the fierce competitiveness that marked this first Cup.
