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.

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.

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!

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 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.

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.

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.
