Realtalkzell,drafted as a junior in 78 despite the C's knew he was playing his senior year

In my opinion this takes the cake for best English Football moment ever. I’d never in my life seen a penalty kick saved and converted into a goal by the defending team within the same play! Not until this happened. The pure emotion behind this is beautiful. To me it’s more meaningful than The Final Day. There’s a lot of iconic moments in football. But the way this played out was so Legendary! The emotions, the fans, and the commentary even, all perfect!

Its a team sport. When the team wins a championship. Its a TEAM WIN. Not an individual win.

Doesnt matter what they woukd do now as a player, because thatsbnot honna happen, This video is talking about WHEN THEY PLAYED!!!!!

Bird is the best, period!!!!!

Bird is so much better, as an all around basketball player, that Jordan

You should pause the tape when you start talking, you're missing some of the information that's being said

Bird is Goat

shut up dumb ass

ok RealTalkZel, good one...Larry Legend was drafted #6 as a junior, but stayed to play his senior year- Celtic's GM was crafty and used a draft. pick just to lock him in even though they had to wait a year to get him, one of the best GM moves ever- year one Legend takes a 29 win team to 61 wins and the pkayoffs, year 2 NBA Title- only injuries stopped Larry Legend, as he put it "Only God himself can guard me," the real GOAT 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐 the other thing is with the 3 it only started his rookie year, he didnt grow up shootin 3s, and it was a more inside game then, he only took like 3 per game, but could have shot them all day easy, like in todays game lights out, no contact shoot 15 3s with passing, rebounding etc unstoppable, my all time starting 5- Wilt Chamberlain at C, Larry Legend and Hakeem the Dream at F, Magic and MJ at guard- no one beats them in a 7 game series.

He is 1. MJ couldn’t beat him…not even when LB’s back was so bad he couldn’t even sit on the bench he had to lay down. And that’s recorded history 😊

5:55 got to the little homie 🤣 you broke lil homie its ok 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

So under your " more help theory " ...Bill Russell is the greatest basketball player of all time right? Nobody got more rings.......

awful reaction

Jordan, Bird and Johnson, Top 3 all time.

bad teams shouldn't be rewarded.

Nah, milking out views of reacting to football is easy af and u still somehow blew it bro. At least try...

this actually made leicester into a legendary side. they won the championship the season after with 102 points, then went on to win the premier league shortly after. watford didnt even get promoted after this win lol

Euphoria is another word for happiness

i enjoy the reaction but bro you talk too much and you keep stopping the video way too often

Trash reaction

In MJ's best year he still didn't beat Bird's stats. I don't think you can really compare Bird to anyone. There has never been a player that played at the high level Bird played at with the injuries Bird had. His sophomore year of high school he broke his ankle in two places and tore the ligaments in it in the first or second practice. He used that time to practice shooting left handed. After he was drafted and before he signed with the Celtics he shattered his index finger in a softball or baseball game. I forget which. Two major surgeries with clips and pins put in it but they couldn't straighten it out so it was shaped like a boomerang at a 45 degree angle pointing towards his thumb. He said he never had the same feel for the basketball after that. The night before that game against the Pacers when he fractured his right cheek he spent in the hospital in traction. His teammates said he struggled to get dressed out for that game. Broke his back in 85. This caused him to lose the structural stability in his spine. It took 4 to 6 hours to unlock his spine, realign it and do techniques to hold it so he can then play a basketball game. You can tell in some of the games when he was wearing a fiberglass body brace. He fractured his eye orbiter in a game and still finished the game shooting with double vision. He had a hole kicked in his face and after he finished playing that game he had to go to the hospital and they had to drill a hole in his face to pop the arch back out. He had a broken foot, bone spurs and double Achilles surgery in 89 and still went out and put up numbers some great players could only imagine. He didn't like to let anyone know he was hurt. He had a toe infection and before a game they had to cut 2 1/2 inches between his toes to drain the infection and he wrapped it up and played that game. His back injury was so bad he had to lay down on planes. And according to his teammates he never in his career took pills, shots or pain blockers. Today a player's uncle could get hurt and they'll set out the game. Larry Bird is in a box all alone. He said himself, If you get paid to go to work you've got to go to work. May I suggest you watch more Larry Bird videos and then see what you think. Danny Ainge said Larry was practicing before a game and Danny asked why he was shooting the way he was and Larry told him his Achilles tendons were bothering him so much his step back wasn't going to work. That was who he was. He was coming up with another game plan for a win. In one game after the first 3 quarters he was one steal away from a quadruple double and sat out the forth quarter. The coach realized it and tried to get him to go back in the game and he said no, that he'd already done enough damage. He cared about the numbers on the score board not the stats. He made his team better and the teams that played against him. His basketball IQ was off the charts. Larry Bird stands alone. They'll never be another player like Larry Bird. He absolutely is the GOAT.

Bird is the only person to beat Jordan and the other great players in that area

Whatever…as Bird was a complete team player..Wilt Chamberlain …still has 73 records on the record book…other have had big games…but Wilt scored 100 against the New York Knicks..in Hershey, Pennsylvania in 1962…but he was stuck at 98 for a couple of minutes cuz he was trying too hard…finally with about 30 seconds left…he tipped it back in for his 100 points…as bad of a free throw shooter he was…that night Wilt was 28 of 32…and that year averaged per game 50.2 points…I am from Kansas and Wilt played for Kansas…but Wilt would typically average 40 points and 25 boards…with a sweet 12 to 15 foot jump shot…as a seven footer…

First Bird was a complete team player..1980 Rookie of the Year…over MAGIC…3 consecutive MVP’s along with Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain…the only 3 to ever do it..DISLOCATED HIS SHOOTING HAND FOREFINGER SO BAD IT WAS BENT AT A NINETY DEGREE ANGLE toward his thumb …they could never fix it…and that was before he had signed his rookie contract..after Red Auerbach had him suit up and do some shooting and passing drill…Red said the kid is good enough…Jordan is 0-6 against Bird in the playoffs…as a coach…he was voted NBA COACH OF THE YEAR…later…NBA EXECUTIVE OF THE YEAR….

In Concacaf we sorta have relegation just in Canada permire league la liga Mx and Caribbean league but not in the MLS and we have domestic cup games like the Lamar hunt us open cup, Canadian cup, Apertura and Clausura and the Caribbean cup and at the end of every season the best teams in league get together and see who is top dog and this tournament is the concacaf champions league and get the chance to play in the fifa club world cup

1. Wilt .2 Michael 3. Larry

1.MJ 2.Bird 3.Kobe Just my top 10

Club football (NOT soccer) and National football are different things (same players, though). What is being discussed here is CLUB football; national teams (including the USA) play in the World Cup, which is held every four years (and also in Regional competitions - see the European Nations Cup later in 2014). Americans don't seem to be able to understand National teams because so many of their major sports don't have them! They consider their Club Champions to be World Champions. The rest of the world laugh at this ignorance. The lack of promotion and relegation in American sports is what makes them so boring and stale.

Larry is my # 1 having watched 80s ball live - above and beyond those others. Jordan was more athletic, Kareem had the sky hook, Magic wasn’t a clutch shooter, Larry was well rounded - best passer, best pure shooter, played smarter. Larry Legend basketball Jesus forever. It’s not about rings or MVPs

This video is trash because you don't pay attention most the time

Boring reaction

I watched that game (as a Lakers fan) with Magic's baby sky hook. I was glad the shot went in. But, every time Bird had that ball with a few seconds left even when he wasn't shooting? It was a nail-biting experience. But, I actually started watching more Celtics games and Bird after I learned Bird was a great trash talker. I mean, we (most guys) trash-talked a lot back then and not just in sports. However, I admired players that followed through and Bird was something else.

Top 3. You're welcome.

There will never be anyone even close to Larry Legend 🏀🐐

MJ....0 for 6 against Larry in the playoffs

I think the “he had more help” argument is fair when talking about a potential GOAT’s number of rings. Check out Jorden in the ‘86 playoffs. GOAT performances, but Bulls lost in 3 games…

Dude you kept looking away and missing some of the best highlights.

I can deny anything I want. As you are denying logic with your LeBron is better than Larry. What I can't deny is the eye test, what my eyes saw in the 80s watching Larry play, I believe whole-heartedly, and nobody could ever convince me of anything different, Larry Bird IS the GOAT of the NBA.

Think about it this way The way the "less help" argument works isn't too diminish what magic accomplished, its simply putting into context the status of the players around magic and bird. On one side, Kareem would've made the HoF with it without magic. He would've won rings with or without magic. James worthy would've had a good career with it without magic On the other side, Kevin Mchale was a bench warmer for his rookie year, and a 2nd string player until his 4th year. Robert Parish was averaging 9pts, 5 rbd and 2.4 assists until he got traded to Boston and stayed playing with Larry Bird, and just one year later he was averaging 17, 8.5, 5, basically doubling his efficiency. I have no doubt that magic would have had the same leadership effect on the Celtics and vice versa for Bird and the Lakers, but it is an undeniable fact that one made average teammates into hall of famers while the other got to play with already HoF caliber players. And while i think that Larry Bird would've gotten 5 rings on the Lakers, because of a combination of their team environment and personal playstyles, Magic would only have gotten 2 rings with Boston. Magic wasnt able to shoot from 3 and mid range like Bird was, and the lack of a true scoring threat would make it harder for Magic to pull his passes off, especially before Mchale and Parish develop. I dont think "Celtics Magic" wins the 81 championship that Bird did win, but i do think he wins in 84 and 86. And don't take this as a slight on Magic, it isn't. Its simply a consideration that his playstyle would be less successful if he was the one who had to shoot as a deep range primary scoring option

I loved this game... That dive for the penalty got rewarded with a watford win!

If winning is winning, and nothing else matters... Does that man Robert Horry is a better goat argument than MJ? Hondo? KC Jones? Sam Jones? Etc.? I think there are like ten players with more rings than Jordan.

That makes all the sense

Jordan was 0-6 against bird

If you haven't seen the college Goat look at Pete Maravich. 44.2 ppg no 3 point line and only played 3 years!!!

Some of the players in the course of NBA history held back on their own offensive numbers for the sake of team play, and a win, and some did not…… The other intangibles within the game, and within the attitude of the team itself are more important in any, and every team sport ever known or ever will be known.Period 🥴🤪😂🏀❤️

It’s interesting that you think MJ would average 40p-6a, and then you say that LarryBird would average a triple double with 50 p. You just admitted that LarryBird was better than MJ, and would be today too.

No body was better than Larry Bird , he is one through ten, Always and forever.

He is the top T E N. !

Larry Bird was the best at everything basketball , end of statement.
