Larry Bird buzzer beater vs Blazers 1985 (Johnny Most version)

Johnny most calls Larry Bird's amazing baseline buzzer beater vs the Blazers in 1985. Bird takes the in bounds pass, fakes, falls away and swishes it to give the Celtics a 128-127 win over the Blazers.

I just love how cool Bird is taking that shot, like it was no big thing. Just put it up there, won the game for the team and shrugged it off. There's something so admirable, yet heartbreaking about it. That's one of the things about greatness, I suppose. Very little you do surprises you, I guess.

[@epic103]

That gave me chills... those were the good old days. Larry Legend!

[@jr6200]

Yeah, those are the words, it game me chills.

[@cjhitz]

I remember watching this on TV as a 12 year old Blazers fan. Bird was magnificent down the stretch

[@Barmaid]

Loved Johnny Most. He was a true gentleman with a wicked sense of humor.

[@Calbenmike]

Johnny Most is the GOAT.

Wow- thank you for posting this!! I miss Johnny.

[@davidcallaham60]

So awesome the realness of Johnny, got to love it.. BiRD was and is and will be top 3 NBA players !!!

[@irishgrl]

The first time I heard Johnny Most, it felt almost cringey to me. But over time, as I’ve heard more & more of him, & learned about him (from his book & in other books), I now get a warm glow, like reconnecting with a favorite family member or old friend. He’s as much a part of the 80s Celtics as the players, and it’s a beautiful thing 🥰

[@ChosenOne-jk6go]

Loved Johnny Most, he bled Celtic Green!!!!

[@glenng03]

This guy is and always will be one of the best basketball players ever to step on a court

[@Mrd9960]

MJ might have something to say about that.

Larry Legend, baby. 🔥

[@vincentditello4358]

The 1986 Boston Celtics were the greatest team of all time.... 5 hall of fame players with bill Walton coming off the bench.... I had the pleasure of meeting Johnny most incredibly nice man And absolutely loved the celtics.... I still think bird was the greatest passing forward in NBA history....

How did Johnny manage to not destroy his voice during his career?

[@h98986]

@JayGatsbyOdysseus Bird is nailed on for top-5 and is arguably the g.o.a.t. It has nothing to do with skin colour.

[@BlantonDelbert]

Larry Bird was a great player. However, he is not the greatest. I would put him in the top 10. I think a lot of white people fall in love with him just the same way a lot of black people fall in love with Obama. It is a similar phenomenon.

[@ruminator3570]

I would gladly go to a game with Kobe, Michael, Lebron, Steph or Durant. But Larry I would be the one I would be excited to see. It's not soley because of what he would do but what he would do to get his teammates involved. The man was just fun to watch for all around skill sake. Lebron is similar.

[@tarikdebarge]

You are a loser!!!!!

[@jimmyboy131]

No we like him so much because he's arguably the greatest all around talent to ever play the game. From '84-'87 he averaged at least 50/40/90 shooting, 27 points, 10 rebounds, and 7 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block. During that same time he won 2 championships, 2 finals MVPs, 3 consecutive league MVPs and 3 consecutive three point shooting contests.
