    Bird is the best trashtalker ever....he talked the talk and then walked the walk every time!!!

    I was in the Corps and during open PT that year I learned how to play basketball that year. It was a special year of my life and I learned to be fast and steal and be fast then pass to the good players. Believe me, watching those games live on TV back then, Bird was as good as he has been shown to be, and so were the rest of the players on that team!

    I hated The Celtics back then with a passion, but they were one of the most cohesive well oiled machines working together EVER! You had to give them that, and Bird ,,,"Y'all can say what you want, he BELONGS on Mount Rushmore, Period!
    He's the baddest White Dude to ever las'em up!
    And what a lot of folks don't talk about is, his success since High school, College, his professional career and Coaching! He never won a Chip in the league coaching, but he won everything else, and he epitomizes hard work, dedication and a sheer love for the game of basketball. Something so many of the players, then and now took/take for granted.
    I don't think there were players with higher BB I.Q's than both he and Magic! They always seemed two or three plays ahead of everyone else....

    Larry was just driven. I watched him play all through his tenure with the Celtics. When we started really watching him play we were constantly saying "what", that's when he started taping the games. I have around 80 + games plus play off games. We just couldn't believe how many times he just was so clutch.

    I enjoy all your LB videos. Please add his lefty game. Walton liked to exaggerate, but Larry did score 20 of his 47 points with his left hand. (1986 Feb 14 @ Blazers (120-119 OT) trp/dbl & clinch 47/14/11/1/2)

    The numbers mentioned in the video vary.
    The REAL number was that the Celtics were down by 22 at halftime - 70 to 47.
    18 January 1986.

    I was raised football/baseball from my Daddy.. I do remember as a little girl my Daddy liked the Sixers too ... he loved all sports but Baseball and Football were more prevalent. I remember him liking Dr. J. Moses Malone.. hating Larry Bird.. Watching these videos of Larry.. I understand why Daddy hated him... He wasn't a Sixer lol

    I played against Patrick Ewing in high school. He was a dominant force on the court. All I could do was foul him or body him away from basket

  • @gordonketch7844
    @gordonketch7844 Před 3 měsíci

    Luka,Jokic, Bird, Kareem, Magic none of these players are known for there speed but like most great players are solid fundamentlly and are10 plays ahead of most players. It is great to be fast and jump high , but was is truly important is the results. The best clutch player ever.

    The one guy who Larry would never talk trash to
    was prime Jordan with prime Pippen with
    Grant/Rodman.

    • @Henry-eh2jk

      Larry Legend talked facts. He would tell you what he was going to do. Then he did it. It was now a fact.

    • @BroomeBlocker4
      @BroomeBlocker4 Před 4 měsíci +2

      He did though. He literally told Jordan "You can't guard me and shot it in his face". He didn't even consider Pippen worthy of talking to and he torched Rodman all the while saying, quick give me the ball I am wide open with Rodman all over him and scored at will.

      Larry Bird is the BEST ALL-AROUND PLAYER EVER!!! BEST passing small forward, BEST rebounding small forward, BEST shooting small forward, Best clutch player ever, and highest basketball IQ ever. TOP FIVE PLAYER ALL-TIME. Magic, Michael, Bird, Russell, and Wilt. Nobody is beating that team!!!
