Former Lakers player Byron Scott expresses indifference towards the cancellation of the TV series "Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty," stating that he wasn't a big fan of the show and believed it was fabricated for entertainment purposes. Scott, who won three NBA championships with the Lakers, revealed that he and his former teammates, including Magic Johnson, rarely discussed the series and were not bothered by its cancellation.
