Bird is A GOAT. At least acknowledge that...

What the Lebron fan doesn't know is Larry's first year in the league Larry took the Celtics to the Conference Finals after the Celtics had only one 20 games the year before. Larry didn't have the team he was with later on.

I like the way you think. Bird was a shooter and a faker and his mental game was unreal. I appreciate your comments. I respect Larry Bird and you. Thank you.

James one of the best for sure but Bird WAS the best!

One of the greatest coach's of the game(Pat Riley)once said "If I have to choose a player to take a shot to save a game I'd choose Michael Jordan...If I have to choose a player to take a shot to save my life... I'd take Larry Bird!". Bird was a masterful basketball player. His game is ageless. And in top of that, he is the best trash talker in the history of the game and beyond but he baked up each and every time. To me, he is the Muhammed Ali of basketball.

There will never be another Larry Bird

Yes, Chuck hit Larry on purpose. He hit him straight on Larry's spine. The dude knew what he did.

James Worthy was talking about it being a sleepless night the day before the game. The fear and worry of having to guard Larry the next game instilled that kind of terror into NBA players. Epic!

I won't try and persuade fans to choose MJ or The Legend over the other, but I would like to make people aware of a point often overlooked. Two of the all time Laker greats, Michael Cooper and James Worthy, have both admitted that they preferred playing defense on MJ before Larry Bird. Enough said!

Rookie season 61 and 21 and tallest guy was 6'11 Jordon rookie led to 38 and 44 out of the 12 times they met jordon won 1 time, 4 games with pippen

Day 1, the dream team was playin with them. Day 2 the dream team torched them the rest of the week

Dailey subbed the game in such a way and with certain matchups that he knew would make it tough on the dream team. He wanted them mad and aggressive. When asked if he did it on purpose, he didn't answer.... he just grinned.

Many people have LB stories but that shit with the dude calling his mom afterwards to see if she in fact was watching the game! That's freaking awesome...

Yeah, Jordan wanted Bird passing the ball at a practice. He rolled it in his direction and walked away and told him to get some rest. We are practice tomorrow.

Parish just having a bad game. Larry not having the best shooting game. This is not one of their better games for the Celtics. Larry always comes up with big plays at the end. He also starts a lot of plays with his rebounds and quick hands.

I dont think the coach “let” them win. It was a warmup game. The kids were playing their heart out. The older guys were just playing. Low effort style. Working out the kinks in their backs so to speak 😊

You have understand that lebron is a good player.but he players in a time you cant looking a player or you will a faul .but in larrys time it was not so. I dont know young people cant see that.larry had a very bad back. Plus he had operations on both feet aswell . 🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀

Yeah he let the wiin see what happened the next day!😊😊😊😊

You guys are delusional. Bron is at least a top 2 player all time. And unless if bird is your one and bron is your 2.. which is not right. Then it’s lebron. It’s crazy that you actually try and make an argument for bird being better then LEBRON JAMES.

Bird

Debo was the shit!

The difference between people who guard Lebron and people who are Larry is crazy. Any six footer can guard lebron, but to bird have to be 7 ft or over. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

When Healthy and in his prime, to me, there is no comparison., Bird, and when it comes to gutting through pain, injuries and still playing again, Bird, Killer Instinct, again, Bird, but over the long hall and with today's rules, training, managed minutes, etc and because that is all he's known, Lebron.

Only one The great Larry Bird , leflop can never make his own move he always have to copy someone else that’s why his the G4yest as puccy player of all time now his is going down because P Diddy is in jail

7:38 notice who’s hand is the only one visibly over his heart? Larry Legend was, is snd always will be a real American hero.😎🇺🇸

Anyone who is a true hooper and a student of the game will know that Bird was the superior basketball player over Lebron. You are a smart young cat who gets it bro. Great job and reaction!

This Is The Best Larry Bird vs LeBron James Video On KZbin! Thanks For Watching & Please Like The Video So Everyone On KZbin Can See The Greatest Players Of All Time Go At It!

LARRY BIRD.. tho Lebron is top 5ish all time, Bird is the BEST IVE EVER SEEN (next to mike, tho i PREFER birds all around TEAM game a bit more)

Oh Rodney, oh Rodney............what were you thinking? Larry Legend was at the end of his career and the stories from many Hall of Famers was well known in the basketball community. I guess that Rodney was like many youngsters that feel invincible and the best thing since sliced bread. I wonder how you felt after Larry Legend extended you an invitation back to the real world! The Legend is still considered the greatest trash talker in NBA history, and he was just an assassin on the court. Don't believe me? Go find video of one of the best defenders ever, Gary "The Glove" Payton and listen to the respect that he has for the Legend. And I don't care about your age and your opinions about the players from the era you grew up watching and how their athleticism is unmatched. The Dream Team was a collection of Hall of Fame NBA players that truly only had one goal when it came to basketball - WINNING! The were also unselfish, competitive, talented in all phases of the game, about as physical as hockey players, and ruthless to anyone foolish enough to challenge them.

That game was the coach's way of teaching the Dream Team players a lesson. The players were all in their egos, not playing as a team.

Please take those pink Nylons off your head.. your girls legs should be in them

Curry isn't tough, or a post player or a defensive player. Bird was all. Out to 3

Bird went 1 loss at home in 86 i think

Ps. I'd rather see content than you. A full-time job wouldn't hurt

Bird swept MJ twice more than any other person on earth

He threw it

DTaeNoDinero, yeah Bobby Hurley would have been a great NBA player, he was better than White Chocolate all around, he could control the game and score, make plays, though I love Jason Williams...and yes, LARRY LEGEND IS THE REAL GOAT! broken. down he's killin Rodney Rogers and tellin him ahead of time lol crazy

Larry is my favorite. I had spurs in both feet and you cannot imagine the pain.

Bobby Hurley was one of the finest point guards I ve ever seen... I watched NCAA just to watch him in Duke.... shame what happened to him, and accident that made him retire so young.

Steph lost 5 3-point contests, Bird won 3 in a row.

Bobby Hurley was a great point guard at Duke but car accident ended his NBA career

I just found your channel and currently watching your most recent Larry bird video I just wanted to share one fun fact incase you never heard it before, Larry is the only person to have won championships at all 3 levels from player to coach to the front office. Winners just win 😅

"Gone" is the past tense version of "Go"....so.....

W reaction!! #birdgang💚🐐🍀

Pisser was, Larry wasn't that old, just his back...

no

Too funny!!!

'86 Celtics finished 50 - 1 at home
