Q: Early in the 1981-82 Los Angeles Lakers season, Johnson complained to the media about head coach Paul Westhead and demanded a trade. Westhead was fired shortly after Johnsons criticisms, and although Lakers owner Jerry Buss stated that Johnsons comments did not factor into the decision, Johnson was vilified by the national media and booed both on the road and at home. Buss promoted assistant coach Pat Riley to "co-head coach" with Jerry West (although West considered himself Rileys assistant) on November 19 and the team won 17 of its next 20 games. Nicknamed "Showtime (basketball)" due to the teams new Johnson-led fast break-offense, the Lakers won the Pacific Division title and swept both the 1981-82 Phoenix Suns season and 1981-82 San Antonio Spurs season in the 1982 NBA Playoffs. Los Angeles stretched its postseason winning streak to nine games by taking the first contest of the 1982 NBA Finals from the 1981-82 Philadelphia 76ers season. The team won the Finals 4-2 to finish a 12-2 playoff run. On draft night in 1982 NBA draft, the Lakers had the first overall pick (the result of a trade with Cleveland midway through the 1979-80 season, when the Lakers had sent Don Ford and a 1980 first-round pick to the Cavaliers for Butch Lee and their 1982 selection) and selected James Worthy from North Carolina Tar Heels mens basketball. The 1982-83 Los Angeles Lakers season won the Pacific Division at 58-24, but Worthy suffered a leg injury in the last week of the season and missed the rest of the season. Nevertheless, they advanced to play 1982-83 Philadelphia 76ers season in the 1983 NBA Finals after defeating 1982-83 Portland Trail Blazers season and 1982-83 San Antonio Spurs season. The Sixers, however, won the series and the championship in four games. After the season West replaced Sharman as the teams GM.
Which teams did the Lakers beat in the 1982-83 postseason?

A: Portland Trail Blazers

Q: The Genoese held the colony of Galata on the Golden Horn across from the city of Constantinople since 1261 as part of the Treaty of Nymphaeum, a trade agreement between the Byzantines and Genoese. However, the dilapidated state of the Byzantine Empire following the civil war of 1341-1347 was easily shown in the control of custom duties through the strategic straights of the Bosphorus. Even though Constantinople was the Imperial seat of power with its cultural and military center on the shores of the Bosphorus, only thirteen percent of custom dues passing through the strait were going to the Empire. The remaining 87 percent was collected by the Genoese from their colony of Galata. Genoa collected 200,000 hyperpyra from annual custom revenues from Galata, while Constantinople collected a mere 30,000. The Byzantine navy, a notable force in the Aegean during the reign of Andronikos III Palaiologos, was completely destroyed during the civil war. Thrace, the main imperial possession besides the Despotate of the Morea, was still recovering following the destruction of marauding Turkish mercenaries during the civil war. Byzantine trade was ruined and there were few other financial reserves for the Empire other than the duties and tariffs from the Bosphorus.
How many years did the Byzantine civil war last?

A: 6

Q: The Steelers would come into the game riding a five-game losing streak. They also no longer controlled their playoff destiny, needing to win their final three games of the season, and also losses by other AFC teams to have a chance for a wild card. Pittsburgh would strike on their first play of the game when Ben Roethlisberger hit a wide-open Mike Wallace for a 60-yard TD pass. Green Bay would answer with an 83-yard strike from Aaron Rodgers to Greg Jennings for a TD. The Steelers would cap the 1st quarter with a 2-yard TD run by Rashard Mendenhall. In the 2nd quarter, QB Aaron Rodgers was able to scramble out of the pocket for a 14-yard TD run. Ben Roethlisberger would hit Mewelde Moore for a 10-yard TD pass in the final seconds of the 1st Half and the Steelers would take a 21-14 lead into halftime with them. The 2nd half got off to a slow start for both teams. Jeff Reed would kick a 37-yard field goal, the only scoring of the 3rd quarter. In the 4th quarter, it became a shootout between both quarterbacks. Aaron Rodgers would hit Jermichael Finley for an 11-yard TD pass. The Steelers answered with a 34-yard field goal, but would lose the lead for the first time in the game when Ryan Grant rushed for a 24-yard score, putting Green Bay up 28-27. The Steelers would once again answer with a 43-yard field goal, but Aaron Rodgers would complete a 24-yard TD pass to James Jones and follow it with a successful 2-point conversion attempt. The Steelers, down 36-30, would get the ball back with just 2minutes left in the game. With just 3seconds remaining, Ben Roethlisberger would hit Mike Wallace in the left sideline of the endzone (in a TD pass that resembled the Super Bowl-winning catch by Santonio Holmes back in February) and the extra point was good, giving the Steelers a last-second 37-36 win over the Packers. Ben Roethlisberger would finish with a record-setting game, going 29/46 for 503yards and 3 TD passes. He would become the first quarterback in Steelers' franchise history to have a 500-yard game. With the last second win, the Steelers would move to 7-7.
