McHale and Parish would not have had such amazing carreers with the celtics if it were not for the generous amount of assist from Bird. they were both great players but you can't score a point if you do not have the ball, and larry did not have to share he just did as he was the best team player period.

In nine straight years: 1 third place, 5 second places, and 3 first places; imagine the competition.

Some things to think about. Has your favorite player ever... - called his shot in a live game more than one time and made that called shot? - told people he's going to play left-handed and then score 27 points left-handed, 20 points right handed and hit the game-winning shot from the corner double covered at the buzzer? - hit a shot over the backboard from behind it in a live game? - come one steal away from a quadruple double in just three quarters of play? - make a game-winning play on the last second of the last game of a finals series in at least two separate series? - play the game that was of such high caliber that (the other team) was celebrating outwardly on numerous different shots that he hit, proven by the players being fined for such? - break a bone in your face and then come back in, lead and rally your team to a comeback win, in yet another game five final? - play his entire career and in that footage never find one instance of slacking, hanging back or giving up on a play? I know that one's going to eliminate a couple real quick! I could go on, there's more. Larry Bird was just different! Few other players, maybe Jordan and couple others played with as much confidence in my opinion. The confidence he had is how all the above things happened.

Out of control players high as kites. Refs as bad as they come. Then came Magic and Larry. They centered the game and changed the league.

Before he hurt his back he could run and jump, with most guys his size. He was no Jordan or Dominique, but who was?! And Larry had quick hands and had quick feet in small areas. The whole "Larry was un athletic," is way over blown for effect. Even with a back injury that would retire most players, he averaged over 10 rebounds a game. An un athletic guy could not do that.

Bird was one of the most prolific trash talkers in the NBA. And he could back up what he was saying 99% of the time. That was how Larry Legend got into an opponents head. Bird was extremely court savvy and knew the mental aspects of the game mattered a lot. Thus to throw you out of your physical game he would mess up your mental game as well. Larry may not have been the physical specimen of Jordan or LBJ, but he was always a couple of steps ahead of people mentally. He saw how the action on the floor was developing before it actually happened. Jordan learned that later in his career. LeBron James will never get there.

I just realized you are a young boy. Bird was one of the greatest ever… Wilt said so. I remember getting the Basketball college and pro mag with Bird on the cover while he was in college, the title was who can guard this guy in the nba? Nobody. I hated him as a sixers fan, but admired him… but hated him.

To me it was a circular argument. Larry Bird is one of the greatest players of all time, and he had the trash talk to back it up, which helped make him one of the greatest players of all time. It was that intimidation factor where he would get in people's heads and get them off their game. Many of the greats have it. Jordan with the tongue sticking out. Tiger Woods with just his swagger on the course when he was in his prime. And of course the greatest trash talker in the history of sports, Muhammad Ali, who probably won some fights just by running his mouth. Sonny Liston certainly thought he was crazy, and that probably contributed to Ali beating the tar out of him.

Maybe the best compliment about Larry Bird I ever heard was when Coach Pat Riley said, "if I had to pick a player to take the shot to win the game I'd pick Michael Jordan." "If I had to pick a player to take the shot to save my life I'd pick Larry Bird."

For all of us that saw him play, he was the most clutch shooter ever! And I bleed Purple and Gold, but, Cold Blooded Assassin. Larry Joe Bird is my starting SF on my Best 5 of all time. 3 point shoot out won with warm up on, and he had to drain the last 4 to win.

Most of the highlights you see are past his prime. From 79 to 86, he was faster then most in the NBA for his size. He never could jump, but everything else, he was a superior athlete. Strength, agility, quickness, hand eye. If you see him 10 feet out, no one in the league could stop him. Magic said as much, to many moves.

Bird is my fave of all time. Magic, Kareem, Scott, Cooper, Rambis,Mchale, Parrish, DJ, Ainge, Walton, all the 80's Lakers and Celtics were the best teams ever! Great rivalry. Great stories. Everyone bags on Lebron but times are different and dynasties are not the same. Probably better that way. They are all my basketball heros! Bunch of cool dudes! Best in the world! Larry was best all around player that ever lived.

Creighton grad here. CU beat Indiana State three times by a total of 7 points in Larry's junior year. In his senior year undefeated regular season, Larry came to Omaha and went 16-16 from the field and 18-19 from the free-throw line. Got so bad, Creighton's coach slipped off his shoes and leaned back to watch the show in the second half. He said that sometimes you realize that you may never see another player that good in your lifetime, so enjoy it.

That reference where Larry said I was up 38-6 is the game where Doc only had 6 points to Larry's 38. It is the same game where Malone held Larry's arms as Erving started punching him out of frustration... yeah Larry frustrated the Doc!! Larry the Legend. Actually in that time out shot game.. It was a 3pt shot and called timeout,,,, last second shot at top of 3pt to tie the game for OT... and that last shot was to win the game in 2OT... all off from one foot. Check the game or another Larry video.

I don't blame Julius Erving for taking a swing at Larry....imagine how pissed you'd be if you were Dr. J. and Larry Bird was outscoring you 38-6. Larry Bird was snatching souls on the court and cooking all your favorite HOF'ers when he played. He beat every HOF'er he ever played against and you will never see anything like this again.

The time out 3 didn't do Bird justice because what they left out was that Bird hit a 3 in regulation to send it to overtime, then hit what would have been the game winning 3 when Jones called time out, and then hit a 3rd 3 pointer off of 1 foot.

People say "unathletic" but some of the stiffness was from injury/lack of recovery. He was so loyal, I don't think he ever trashed his coach or his fellow players but he knew that most of the time they couldn't do a damned thing without him after a season or two. So he played injured (minor and major) a lot, I think. That's not all of it, he never looked particularly graceful. But did he have to?

It wasn't that fuzzy live also but yeah analog doesn't play well in the digital era
