Larry Bird Ultimate Mixtape REACTION

[@andrewdavid5928]

James Worthy said "Michael Jordan made you look slow, but Larry Bird made you look stupid."

[@GibsonHeavy]

Larry Bird's retirement night was on a non game night. He sold out the arena (12,000+) seats, just to see both Larry and his number retire. That's how important Larry Bird was to the city of Boston and the NBA. Legendary...

When bird came back out he had a broken cheekbone ... players today sit out for having a zit ... GOAT

[@paulhoulton638]

I'll always remember how Bird with a broken back still managed to beat the Jordan & Pippen combo. That was after Bird had already swept Jordans Bulls twice in back to back in playoff games 86 & 87. Bird was just on another level.

[@harolddorsey9179]

Do you honestly think LeBron would come back into the game with a fractured cheek. Then win the game. No. LeBron would be in the locker room crying i got hurt. Larry Bird is the Goat of all time.

[@mikerichardson8983]

Larry bird was the clutchest player to ever play. He made more big shots and big play than anyone that I ever saw. Larry legend is the Goat.

[@facepalmjesus1608]

''i will play the whole game left handed'' Larry Bird was the ultimate basketball genius TROLL!

[@mikestevens917]

Bird vs KD? Best clutch player- Bird. Better passer- Bird by far. Better rebounder- easily Bird. Better defender- equal. Most rings- Bird. Most MVP's- Bird. The only stat KD leads scoring avg. KD gets about 3 pts/gm more than Legend for their careers. But because their shooting %'s are virtually equal across the board, the fact that KD avg's about 3-4 more 3 pt attempts per game explains KD's lead. Love to know why you think KD is better other than the fact he is your favorite.

[@PixelPro-4000]

Also, Bird fed a lot of his team, which is why he doesn't put up the same scoring points personally. All around, Bird was a better player.

[@sharonbird2921]

[@keithclark2873]

The more you study Bird the more you’ll realize Durant don’t hold a candle to what Larry was. I’ll take him first in a draft over anybody. He’s second behind only Jordan as the most all around talented ever

[@mikelombard21]

I would agree, Jordan, Bird, and Magic would be an easy top three. All masters of their game.

[@irishgrl]

[@brianstrutter1501]

Talented? Bird was more talented than Jordan. Jordan was a good shooter, Bird was great. Jordan was a good passer, Bird was great. Jordan was a good rebounder, Bird was great. No offense but Jordan does not belong at the same level as Bird. The biggest reason Jordan seemed so great was his amazing athletic ability. Made him look better than he actually was

[@tommymac1967]

It's tough to pick someone who is 0-6 vs. Bird Bird is the most all around player not Jordan

[@snowflakehunter]

Yet Jordan could not beat Larry! LMAO!

[@georgeappleby6868]

The difference between Bird and the players now is simple. They actually played hard defense then and Bird broke his face, had a concussion and came back and won. Players now would be out for 2 months.

[@dbsti3006]

The ball always moves faster than the players. Bird understood that concept and got around the most athletic of players by a fast brain and quick hands. No need for 3pointers and dunking when you can shoot and pass anywhere on the court at will. Especially when you are that good at finding an opening to a teammate through a very tiny window.

[@mikelombard21]

Amen, He understood the speed of the game and how a fast mind and quick hands can lead to results. Larry was really something special.

[@antriggjackman6274]

So true what he understood from a early age was angles plus it wasn't just a physical sport. It was a mental one all the top players MJ, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson had u beat mentally he get in people head.

[@ogjz7588]

Absolutely.. bird didn't put the ball on the floor and was already in position to shoot or pass so no one could defend him.. Magic knew it that's why he feared bird.. he knew that bird could hit every shot in one on one..

[@thatmanstumototours2270]

He broke everyone's ankles. Best all around SF of all time. BTW, the Time Out game, he hit the Game Tying shot to go to OT, hit the Game Winner in 1st OT and it was waved off, then hit the Game Winner in 2OT...Bird was slow like a hiccup. Luka couldn't carry Larry Bird's jock.

[@refereejameslawrenceiii8409]

Larry bird is a top 3 all time. He genuinely has a case at being the greatest ever. You should react to more larry bird videos. Larry was also a lot faster than people give him credit for. He's not fast, but he's quick enough to get his way with everyone. You should react to his 1991 game against mj. Old larry bird put up a similar stat line to mj and pippen in their primes 😳

[@kentgrady9226]

Larry is easily the best SF ever to play the game. He's also one of the 3 best ever, regardless of position. He dominated an era when the league in general and the East in particular, was ridiculously deep with talent - by far the best ever. How good was he? He was the best player on the Celtics, and had a winning overall record (and perfect playoff record) against Jordan's Bulls. I also get sick of the remark that he was "unathletic". He was fast enough to beat anyone to any loose ball. He jumped high enough to be a double digit career rebounder. He was physically tough enough that the meanest, nastiest players in the league thought twice about fighting him. To my thinking, that made him plenty athletic, even if he looked a bit goofy. Any real basketball fan who DOESN'T put respect on Larry's name, simply doesn't know what he's talking about.

[@cindyknudson2715]

The trouble with highlights sometimes, in my opinion, is that a viewer doesn't necessarily distinguish between Larry's running speed in his prime years as opposed to when he was on the cusp of retirement due to injury. There IS a difference between Larry's speed in, for example, 81 or 86 and 91/92 when he was spending some nights in the hospital in traction in order to be able to play the next day because of his back. What he did on the court in those circumstances can be rather mind-blowing in their own right. IMHO 😏

[@weslennon3425]

That shot the other team celebrated, Bird had called the shot, he said "Off the Glass into the Trainers lap". That was the one that really sent the Hawks celebrating.

[@dianne6155]

Larry was the definition of playing as hard as you can. Hurt or not try to kill the opponent. Just will yourself and your team to a win.

I liked that Larry stayed with one team, good, bad, mediocre, Larry was a Celtic, I respect that. That'd one of the main hits I'd put on Bron.

Larry Bird is easily top 3 ever. A lot of youngsters think of him as a great shooter, but Bird was as close to the complete article of a player possible, especially in an era where you had to be tough.

[@unity1016]

You can certainly have Durant as your favorite. I have no problem with that. There are too many variables to definitively say who's the goat. Larry Bird is my favorite. Sooo much fun to watch. You never knew what he was going to pull off. Stats don't show what was really going on. He could easily have made more baskets, but be was a team player. And, they double and triple guarded him, so he would get the ball to the open man. But, since he was such a good shooter and passer, they never knew if he was going to shoot or pass.

[@OnAirWithDBlair]

I’ve changed my opinion on that after this years playoffs so I think Larry bird is probably better than KD

[@sharonbird2921]

Larry Legend and Magic saved the NBA 2 🐐🐐

[@UnderhillKoufax]

I grew up a fan of Dr. J, Magic Johnson, and Michael Jordan, but the player who could beat you the most ways with the most skills was Larry Bird. Bird had the best combination of inside scoring, mid-range scoring, 3-point scoring, passing, rebounding, defense, basketball IQ, trash talking, work ethic, clutch performance, and leadership. Bird had it all from day 1 in the NBA. The others gained some of these things after several years. Bird was the Batman of the NBA. He was always several moves ahead of the competition, best clutch shooter of all-time, #2 all-time with winning percentage (Jordan is #40), he had the passing gift, and he could beat you more ways than just shooting. Jordan was dangerous when he had the ball. Bird was always dangerous - with or without the ball. Bird is top three all-time with Jordan and LeBron, but Bird is the best small forward of all-time. Hands down. "If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save a game, I’d choose Michael Jordan. If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save my life, I’d take Larry Bird." - Legendary Lakers Coach Pat Riley “I would much rather guard Michael Jordan than Larry Bird, because you have to play the game as a thinker when you’re playing [Bird]. You have to get inside his mind. Larry wasn’t quick, he couldn’t jump really high, but there were just some sleepless nights.” -James Worthy on Larry Bird, via ESPN SportsCentury " The difference between Jordan and Bird was that Jordan made you look slow, Bird made you look stupid. " - James Worthy “Larry Bird can’t jump, and he’s not that quick… But he makes up for it by using his head, analyzing the opponent. It makes him better than the competition… Consequently, he doesn’t have a weakness.” - Michael Jordan Only one man dominated Jordan. His name was Larry Joe Bird. Bird even dominated Jordan after Bird’s back problems got worse in 1989.

[@PixelPro-4000]

Bird's hands are quick and accurate. That's athleticism too.

[@rumrunner5266]

At the retirement ceremony, Magic wore a Celtics jersey under his warm-up and flashed it to Bird. Also the Garden was completely sold out for his retirement ceremony even though it wasn't a game night!

[@pauldennis9248]

to add a little context, that steal play was in game 5 of the 87 confrence finals. they were at 2 and 2 going into the game. and won the series in 6

[@alanela6761]

6:47 actually, he did it 3 times in that game. he hit a three to tie the game that was waved off, another three from a different spot the tie the game again off (of 1 foot) and then the third shot was from the same spot as the first one, but that one was a two-pointer that won it in overtime (also off of one foot)... He was an inch inside the 3-point line. I do believe it's the "making the case" for Larry Bird video that details that one. if you watch enough Larry Bird videos, I cannot imagine that you would have Durant or LeBron above him in your rankings. Jordan and Magic, really, are the only possibilities for me... And I do find them to be arguable

I am so glad I was alive when all these giants of the game were putting on the shows of a lifetime.

[@ryant3600]

Go study Bird as much as you can. For me imo: when talking about the best 5-6 players of all time: 1. Bird, 2. MJ 3. Magic 4. Kobe 5. Kareem 6. Wilt. Guys today I don't think could hang w/ those legends when in their prime. For example Bird played half his career hurt, a messed up back, to where when he was on the bench he didn't sit, he had to lay down on the hard floor, when he came back from that injury in this film, he was concussed and a fractured cheek. Players aren't tough like that today. The game has changed to protect players for this reason, but those old guys played like it was war..
