This has to be one of, if not the Greatest documentaries of all time. I mean the people who put this together just put together a masterpiece and it shows throughout the whole thing. It did both of them justice in every way.

[@mattcal6423]

This is a great sports documentary. I’ve watched it 3 times through now, still shed a manly sports tear each time. Facing Nolan is another great sports documentary Nolan Ryan’s career was insane just unreal. Sports are awesome

[@James-dh6ld]

During those seasons of pain Larry was still 22pts, 9-10 rbds, 5-7 assists x 2 steals. He did a lot, not nothing.

[@raistlinrodriguez5696]

"When you get paid to go to work, you go to work" those words could not be more true and unfortunately most players if not all players don't believe in that philosophy any more. The athletes in this era were true Warriors of their sport.

[@ItzJustJP]

I love that quote! It’s 100% facts!

[@mikegoodwin2386]

Not just professional athletes, but people in general, whatever your job happens to be, there's not enough of that attitude any more.

[@lfcgero35]

Im a 50 year old irish guy who loves football (soccer)and boxing but this rivalry is unmatched in any sport.

[@ItzJustJP]

Facts!!!

[@lfcgero35]

@@ItzJustJP they played each other 18 times in the regular season and 19 times in the playoffs over 3 nba finals. Thats 37 times they played each other over a decade. Not too many rivalries can boast that number over that many years while being competitive. During that same decade magic won 5 rings 3 mvps 3 finals mvps and was in 8 finals and bird won 3 rings 3 mvps 2 finals mvps and was in 5 finals now thats domination.

[@henrysteel4049]

​@@ItzJustJPGotta watch the dream team documentary next... If ya haven't.

[@randygumaer282]

Well you know the saying hindsight is 2020, and history set the story straight. Larry Bird IS one of the GOATS of Major League basketball, and arguably the greatest all-around basketball player of all time!

[@battagliarandy8073]

I wish everyone was like Bird and Magic, what a great world it would be.

[@henrysteel4049]

Their rivalry worked to heal race relations in this country... Godsend...? The comes Jordan. ("God in tennis shoes") The first black guy, white ppl wanted to be. (Be like Mike)

[@polyscroll]

You just don't see this kind of rivalry and "friends for life" bond today. The 80s and 90s were my favorite years watching the NBA, and Larry, Magic, and Michael were the reason for that. Seeing them all playing on the same team in 1992 (Dream Team), to bring home a Gold medal for the US, was iconic, and seeing Magic feed Larry the ball so he could knock down a three was the best! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts.

[@ItzJustJP]

Facts what you said! Thank you for watching!

[@jabberwokee4127]

Definitely one of the best documentaries ever made...Legend & Magic!

[@Darkaddict20]

Larry Bird just wanted to play Basketball without this dumb Drama. It always the case media like to stir up things. Leave him alone.

[@ItzJustJP]

Facts!!!

[@Lonewolfmike]

When they told Larry about the comment all he said was, "So." As he said it still doesn't mean anything to him and he means it.

[@earlshannon1048]

I quit watching the NBA 95 for political reasons. Todays game would be destroyed by 70's and 80's and early 90's teams

[@woodymeadows9363]

I do not recall seeing this documentary, so thank you. Very good. And shows that the division is only real if you allow it to be.

[@woodymeadows9363]

I still say that players from today sit out more games while healthy than injured players did back in the day.

[@MrMojoRisin13]

I didn't realize it at the time, as a 15-year-old kid, but it wasn't just a joy to watch these two men play, but it was a privilege. I got to see watch the golden age of professional basketball; I got to see the stars of the 70s NBA give way to the greats of the 80s, and then watch the greats of the 90s blend into the game. It was--the best. And there was no game more highly anticipated than a Celtics-Lakers game. And when these two failed to meet in the finals, you were a bit disappointed.

[@ItzJustJP]

I’m jealous lol I wish I lived during that time. Yeah they always go at one another and always a storyline or moment each game they face one another!

[@seanberry1765]

Now you need to do the dream team documentary. Not as good as this one but it's good in its own way.

[@ItzJustJP]

Oh yeah! I seen it! I can do it again and react to it!

[@woodymeadows9363]

He would have retired if Len Bias had not died.

[@Sunny-jz3dy]

Being in traction for hours is quite painful but he did it....to be able play! He never took pain medication....he just worked through it. If you've never had back or neck pain like that...its hard to explain what its like to live with. Bird more than anyone else...I think understood what Magic was going through.

[@julianwilcox399]

Game 4 of the 87 series. Magics baby sky hook. The lakers should never have had the ball with 7 seconds to go. Watch the 2nd free throw that Kareem misses. The ball clearly goes out of bounds off of Magic. It should have been Celtics ball and History would be different . Maybe 4 rings each as it should have been

[@aramhamparian9641]

I love watching sports documentaries, and this one has to be the best of them all. Great commentary as always bro!!

[@ItzJustJP]

Thank you so much! It was a great doc!

[@sandyleewhite]

This documentary always brings me to tears every time, & I end up crying, like a little baby........I have so much respect for both Magic & Larry, and IMO, these 2 will always be the GOATS in my heart 💖💖💖

[@ItzJustJP]

Yeah that part when Larry got a bit emotional about not seeing Magic on the court, I rested up a bit and Magic being emotional too, I was like this is powerful! Love this documentary!

[@sandyleewhite]

@@ItzJustJP 💞💞💞

[@garrypaulsessoms7195]

Two of the greatest players (and we had a couple legends) but these two were my favorite of all time.

[@philipmccarthy6175]

Never get tired of watching videos about these 2 🐐 's.

[@ItzJustJP]

Greatest rivalry in NBA history in my opinion!

[@ratso4443]

No conspiracy, Kevin McHale played that game with a fractured heel and Magic knew he wouldn’t jump, so he went for it. That’s just playing smart.

[@ItzJustJP]

IQ

[@bbox5938]

Isaiah Thomas was the team captain at the time of Dennis Rodman's comment, I think he was just trying to take some heat off of Dennis. I'm enjoying this video brother, thank you.

[@ItzJustJP]

Pretty much!

[@patrickvoeks4218]

Wow, that was great. I remember when this happened, I was living in LA. It was a sad day in sports.

[@ItzJustJP]

Yeah it was!

[@raveouscarlias4479]

2 ABSOLUTE GOATS! Bird and Magic along with Jordan are in the "Holy Trinity" of NBA history imo. They're my top 3 picks of all time. Love them so much.

[@woodymeadows9363]

Magic is the most healthy person ever, as well as gaining weight, of anyone ever have having HIV.

[@fidge54]

Really? You know the stories of everyone whoever had HIV? That's amazing!

[@woodymeadows9363]

@@fidge54 Back then? Yeah It was basically a death sentence once caught.

[@JennRighter]

I cry every time I watch it and I’ve watched it sooooo many times.

[@ItzJustJP]

It’s really good!

[@igainconsistentgolfassocia4010]

You got to do Secretariat espn sports century...greatest athlete human or animal

[@Darkaddict20]

Thanks I appreciate this. I will watch once I get home.

[@ItzJustJP]

Appreciate the support as always!

[@waligerber9410]

I don't care about Kevin in game 4, i think if Larry made the last (2sec) shot things could be different. 9 out of 10 he hit, but what if doesn't count. What if i'm an ass, ripping everybody up, i would be a millionaire! Loved it, thanks❤

[@ItzJustJP]

Thank you!

[@waligerber9410]

Rodman and Isaiah didn't thought it thru. Imagine Larry was black! Oh my goodness, he would have destroyed the league even more🤫!

[@ItzJustJP]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ricomusap614]

FYI I was there in 87 the Lakers blew out the Celtics in first two games I felt bad for Celtics as a Lakers fan Celtics were never going to win that series 😔

[@ItzJustJP]

Yeah Lakers were ready and prepared! Larry stated he was the healthiest player on the Celtics. Everyone was banged up.

[@georgemccormick4786]

Forget CRT. Show this in every elementary school.

[@ItzJustJP]

Lol 😂

[@Gigi-ns3fh]

😀👍🔥🏀

[@fidge54]

Isiah knew what he was sayng about Bird was nonsense. That why you hear him chuckle at the end

[@MelissaPalmer-zy5nh]

And EVERYONE was so mad at him is part of the reason he wasn't on the dream team. And his beef with MJ
