Reaction to Basketball Stories: Indiana Glory with Larry Bird, Reggie Miller, and Isiah Thomas

[@polyesterchicken]

I absolutely love this video. Three of the greats just talking about a game they love. I had the pleasure of meeting Bird when I was too young to really appreciate it. My dad's whole family is from southern Indiana, and my great grandma knew Bird's mom. He came to a neighborhood cookout when I was around 6 or 7, and I just remember him being this friendly giant (6'9 is absolutely huge when you're a 6 year old) I grew up a Celtics fan, and I still say he's the most fun player to watch that I've ever seen

Larry saying, “I’d of loved to play against him” instead of “I’d of loved to play with him.” That’s Larry.

To answer your question, the Hawks had an alternate venue in New Orleans the same way the Celtics had an alternate venue in Hartford..

[@BU_TV]

Thank you for that!

I know everyone rags on Isiah but I think he truly respects Larry & for him to bluntly come out & say “Larry you had my career in the palm of your hand…” shows how much gratitude he has toward Larry. As he should. Isiah made a dick move way back then, regarding Rodman’s comment, but to his credit, he did NOT repeat that mistake when Rodman showed his ASS again with his stupid remarks about Larry… BU you are right, Larry didn’t want to be at that presser bcuz he had a finals game to play that night against the Lakers & Larry felt the press conference was a distraction.

He loves Bird, but man I cant stand Isiah😭

[@irishgrl]

I rarely disagree with Larry but I just can’t get on board with his opinion that todays game is great & todays players are great & that he likes where the game is at nowadays…I just can’t agree. Larry’s mellowed, and I miss his edge.

[@BU_TV]

Bwhahahahhahahahaha! Deep down he knows. Because he would be punking all these softballs in todays game

[@irishgrl]

@@BU_TV it just seems so disingenuous coming out of Larry’s mouth! I cringe 😬
