MJ said he learned how to trash talk from Bird. Rodman almost never spoke to players or refs. Reggie tried to trash talk to Bird...once. Bird put him in his place.

Great job Dragon. The answer is an easy one. Michael admitted that he learned everything he knew about trash talking from Larry. It's great that you have these 2 basketball icons together. I have MJ as the #1 G.O.A.T. and Larry Legend 1A.

Magic Johnson said he ran towards Bird. Bird waited until he was one step away, made his shot, and then told Magic “you did all that running for nothing”

Nice review and insights. If you're interested, there is a "Larry Bird Jamal Mashburn" video on YT. In particular, Jamal realizes that while he is soon to be a professional in the NBA he says, "I knew this was a different breed", while talking about Bird, Magic, etc during the dream team Olympics.

Larry is the better trash talker and I'll tell you why. On more than one occasion, Mike has said - publicly that he learned how to trash talk in the most effective ways. He openly credits Bird with "teaching" him his trash talking. 😀👍 Larry invented a bunch about what's in and around the game. Like the "Step back Jumpsuit" and the like. You should watch his Ultimate Mixed-tape too. It is a great layout of some truly EPIC moments from his career, including "Bird's Great Steal" or is it "The Great Seal." One or the other. But anyway stuff like that in his Mixed-tape. You'll love it and scores of other Larry Bird videos. Thanks for showing MY GOAT some love. Rock on! Take care, Lady Aszneth (FL) 😀🤘

The 1992 Dream Team documentary is awesome. Many have broken it up to 3 or 4 videos. Not necessary. It is so awesome no one will think it’s too long. The few who made the whole video, were awed at how good it was. 11 future Hall of Famers. WOW! Everyone was glued to their TVs whenever they played. Beautiful basketball like you’ve never seen. I still watch almost everyday and still get chills 🤙🏽

Larry Bird was the best at trash talker Ever! He demoralized players by calling his plays and there wasn't anything they could do about it. He took away players confidence. While everyone else was slam dunking Larry was busting 3's on them. Just how hard is it to slam dunk a ball when your standing in the paint?

Michael Jordan learned How to get into a players Head 🗣️ was from Larry Bird.. Eddie Johnson said he learned How to trash talk from Larry Bird and was set up by his own Teammates who warned him just before they took the Court and would say just ignore what Larry Bird says. Watch Larry Bird Welcoming Rookies to the NBA was Brutal. Larry Bird owned Michael Jordan and Jordan NEVER BEAT LARRY BIRD IN THE PLAYOFFS.. And they played 39 times against each other and Larry Bird won 26 times against Michael Jordan. That's even with Scottie pippen 😂. You kids think that Labron James and Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson is better than Larry Bird 😂. Now that's funny 🤣.

Is telling the opponent the entire play and then doing it, really trash? We need another term or word to fulfil that descriptive. He used juke-shooting, step backs, rainbow floaters....and the backboards, both hands... And he would tell you which way, where and how? If I hadn't been at a few of those games, I'd be calling bullshit... To say his intent wasn't driven by desire...only fools tread. Larry Joe Bird was a phenomenon. He was injured from day one in the league.. Most, would have hung up their hats after the surgery.. I used to get so pissed at him, he was always diving, jumping reaching for the ball and getting hurt.... But then he'd bring his limping wobbling ass right back on the court and shoot for 20... He was humble, it was his problem...his back, his double Achilles operations. would have ended anyone's career.... His desire to play was unrelenting, and his skill was undeniable.

This video definitely has some of the good ones, but not all of them. Larry got into a lot of fist fights as a result of his trash talk (both on and off the court) and there are some short clips of larry throwin hands out there haha. I'm a firm believer that larry isn't/wasn't a bad guy, though. Talking trash is just part of the competition to him, I think. Only person he probably actually hates is Laimbeer, but he's got a lot of company there. Nobody likes that MF

This video doesn't even scratch the surface of Bird's trash talking. There are dozens of videos out there of his former opponents telling Bird trash talk stories. EVERYBODY who faced him has stories LOL. And most of them are funny. Jordan has said that Larry taught him everything about how to get into people's heads. So, who's the better talker? Jordan is great, but nobody tops Larry. Those other great talkers you mentioned? They all give props to Larry. Gary Payton calls him the coldest ever, as a talker and as an opponent.

Haven't even scratched the surface on Bird, trash talking and everything else. Watch Shawn Kemp and Jamal Mashburn telling stories about their experiences with Bird. Jordan himself said Bird taught him how to trash talk. He looked goofy asf but he may be the most savage player to ever do it. Book by its cover and all that.
