Larry Bird didn't need much space to get his jumper off either. Bird had a sweet jumper and it was even sweeter because of his next level confidence.

[@anthonypena2990]

Nothing compared to how fast Curry gets it off and Curry gets it off so effortless from so far away, u know how much strength tht takes in a flick of the wrist to be hitting them shots from the rafters before the games, he does it so effortless and with Supreme confidence, he's perfected the art of shooting, dude don't ever fuckin miss in the gym alone practicing... HE MADE OVER A 105 THREES IN A ROW WITH STEVE KERR IN A SESSION... FOH BOAAA

Thoughts that become words which turn into action. Of course you have to back it up.Practice till perfection.Then one practices some more until it becomes a blur. Confirmation and validation during practice makes it easier when it comes to doing it during real life scenarios. Larry Bird.The mind of a champion.

In 1985, the Boston Celtics legend had arguably the greatest game of his career, almost recording a quadruple-double in a blowout win over the Utah Jazz. Bird only played 33 minutes, logging 30 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists, and 9 steals. When asked why he sat out the 4th Quarter, he said "I've done enough damage". Larry was a Savage ...

[@dustchip8060]

His 33 minutes was equivalent to others playing a full game or even longer.

[@Ch3fdadda]

My other favorite story of Larry Legend is the 3-point shootout All Star game when Larry walked in the locker room and said, “Alright, who’s going to be second.” And goes out and wins with his warm up jacket still on.

[@marvelousministry9434]

I love how all the black players are telling stories about Larry being chubby and slow not that athletic and then they have to tell the part of the story that yeah here's Larry telling me the play and I'm defending him I'm more athletic I'm in better shape I can jump better than him and even with all of those advantages even knowing the play Larry still pulls off the shot. Pure comedy. I love how Dominique was telling everybody how Larry wasn't going to come down into his hood and break McHale's record. Dominique's like heck no that ain't happening. And yet you watch the video and the Atlanta branch is Hi5 and falling off the bench jumping up and down is Larry's scoring 60. Getting fined by their coats for celebrating the opposing team's player killing them. I mean these videos and stories are so hilarious I almost wet my pants laughing so hard

True, but it was a broken finger on his primary shooting hand. His finger was permanently at an angle and couldn't be fully straightened.

His shooting mechanics helped him get the shot over their heads because he didn't shoot in front of his face. He brought the ball behind and over his head, then released it over the top of his head.
