A review of this week’s Winning Time , “Acceptable Loss,” coming up just as soon as I wear some pants with my suit… The season finale is called “Promised Land,” and its penultimate episode this week takes the Lakers all the way to the brink of such a place. They are four wins away from the NBA championship that would rescue Jerry Buss’ financially strapped operation and legitimize everything he and his brain trust have done to shake up the league in the past year. Not everyone gets to make it to the promised land, though, whether it’s the story of Moses in the desert or these Showtime Lakers.
