HBO’s Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty returns with new episodes on HBO and on Max starting on Sunday August 6. The new season follows the evolution of the L.A. Lakers into the 1980s, up through 1984, when the Lakers and Celtics squared off in 1984 to crown the champions of basketball.
If you prefer modern sports to recreations of sports history, there’s also a new season of Hard Knocks focused on the New York Jets. Max will also add a bunch of other non-sports stuff in August, including a new season of Rap Sh!t and a new Adventure Time series, Fionna & Cake. For library titles, you can watch Avatar, the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, some Death Wishes, a couple Naked Guns, and Before Midnight.
