Now let's do the 92 dream team and learn where that takes us!

Thank you! I'll watch this every time I see it. They handed the torch to Michael, and he elevated the NBA. But Larry and Magic saved it. One hundred percent. The game was going down before they arrived, and it was something really special to watch. It was a great time to be alive.

I don't know if you've seen the vid yet but the basketball legends would rather guard jordon over bird.

Bird scored 19 points in this championship game set a record for free throws and played with a fractured thumb that he fractured playing against Arkansas razorbacks. In which he had a monster game. So for bird this was not his best game. He had an amazing block and some great passes but he didn't have a game up to his standards. Bird and magic were the greatest players you watch. They made the nba exciting. Great reaction ❤Larry and magic saved the nba and Mj took it global. You should watch 1992 dream team documentary

Great reaction. I definitely appreciate you doing the whole thing in one shot.

It's hard to rate basketball players (and chess players) across different spans of time, because the new guys can study the moves of the previous generation. "How'd he do that? What was that move there? How'd he see that coming? Let me try that." Did they learn that because they're the best players ... or because they're the best students, who had film they could refer to? Some people wouldn't put Bird in their top 5 of all time. That's fine. There could be guys since then who were or are physically better than prime Bird, or who had flashier physical gifts or better career stats (and there were back in the day, too). But those guys still owe a lot to Larry Legend, because he was playing that style of game in the 80s. He was doing things you just didn't *do* back then, making other players look foolish. And he didn't learn it watching film, he learned it shooting hoops with the Black players working at a hotel in his home town. He got it by *doing it.*

And Isaiah wonders why he wasn’t selected….

Subbed just because you did this video

Jordan would average 50 per game today. No hand checking and the rules make it so there is no Defense. Check out Jordan "One of the best defenders ever "...

When he fell hard to the floor and broke his cheekbone, the team doctor told him he couldn't play the rest of the game and Larry snuck out of the locker room to rejoin his team. Larry was also very generous with his teammates by getting them the ball and letting them shine by getting in shots. Great video.

One of the best documentaries I've ever seen. I'm a Bird fan but have always respected what Magic brought to the game. Just subscribed. I wish more young people were willing to look into this history.

Larry and Magic saved and changed the game; MJ made it grow from there.

Fiction writers would be hard pressed to come up with a better story that Bird and Magic real lives. Magic, Bird and Jordan - The holy trinity of basketball.

Thank you, magic and Larry change the game, but Michael Jordan took it globally❤

Larry was on another level than all the other players! I think he's the best player of all time!

Larry is top1 He share that position with Jordan and Magic. But yea... He is top1

There is no GOAT. Only the holy Trinity of basketball.

There is no GOAT. Only the holy Trinity of basketball.

That travel on Dom is because back when they actually called travelling, the euro step was considered a travel as well.

Hey kids, embrace the 80's values- hard work, dedication, selff control, being humble, willing to improve and last but nit least respect.That is all you need to bring NBA back to that level you've just witnessed.Those legends are still there for you- Larry, Magic, MJ, Kareem, Malone... man the list is so long.Ask questions and watch and copy paste.God bless!!!

Also Larry Birds Ultimate Mix Tape is a must see

A great video to see is "Larry Bird greatest passer re-edit" - youll be amazed

RIP to the Legend, Bill Walton.

Please please watch the documentary on Bird and Magic called "a courtship of rivals"

Sean Payton said it best. Larry Bird was cold.

Bird seems to miss the rim nothing but net

GOAT Bird did everything better

He broke his face not his ass! Weren't you watching? 😂

Why are they giving so much space? For the same reason they give steph so much space today. Smart shooters know how to move off the ball and make defenders forget about them for a second. They create their own openings.

MJ-1, Kobe-2, Bird-3

9:52 #42 helps Bird up.

Bird always wanted to get Parish the down low because he knew how important he was to the team.

4:10 Robert Parish was the lodestone of the Celtics.

2:45 Bird has stated multiple time that Dennis Johnson was the smartest he ever played with.

1:36 This is a great still of the Celtics. Larry Bird, Dennis Johnson and Robert Parrish. Mchale was the fourth.

Larry Bird greatest small forward of all time. I have a question for the young folks. How can you look at a few years of NBA and think you have seen the greatest player of 70 years of NBA Totally ridiculous. I have Larry 5th all time. There are only 2 players that qualify for GOAT. Mike and Wilt. Aliens. Both 48 inch vertical. Mike 4.3 40 . Wilt 4.4 . Wilt bench press 500lbs . 7'2" with 7' 11" wingspan. 72 NBA records. Never fouled out of a game in his whole. The year he avg 50 points and 25 rebounds he played all but 6 minutes of the whole season. He got ejected. Too fast. Too strong. Jump to high. Can you imagine a tick slower than Mike and 7'2". Aliens

Larry Legend the best.

I DON'T NOOO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING. AND I DON'T NOOO WHO LARRY BURR IS BYEEEEEE

Even though Larry’s not your GOAT, at least you acknowledge he SHOULD BE in that conversation. That’s fair.

Are you noticing how many of Larry’s shots are NOTHING BUT NET? 😮❤

LARRY LEGEND IS A UNICORN AND THE *TRUE* GOAT!!! 🐐 ☘️

SWept the Bulls 3 times. There are many good vids out here on Larry...Check out Greatest passer (re-edit) and His 10 most savage moments. You won't be sorry.

Bird and MJ 1A and 1B so my top 5 has 6

Shit was physical in the 80s. My teen years I was a Bird fan

they cut the Dr J clip off early. a second after they cut the clip the Dr and bird grabbed each other by the throat and started throwing hands, it ended in a bench clearing brawl

MJ could score at will these days. He played against MUSC TOUGHER teams back then. Fact. There is only 1 G.O.A.T., Michael Jordan. I watched him through his entire career and since then no one even comes close.

Think about how far ahead he was Luka, other of todays game copy Birds moves he was the originator the one and only, Magic Johnson stated “Larry was so good it was frightening “.R.I.P the great Bill Walton one of the big five center greats.

Dont make em like Larry anymore. I live 25min from French Lick.

Compare his and Brons stats at 30 years old, Bird was better in every stat

Did you see 6:22 ?
