It was wedding cakes he was eating, not birthday cakes. The point stands though : who’s gonna f*ck up a wedding cake?
It’s somewhat comforting to know Larry was a “fat boy just waiting to eat freely” deep inside, when he was such a basketball savant in the world’s eyes. Lol
Ooop! Ty! Larry is me😂
@@BU_TV Larry is the male version of me ! 🤣
@@BU_TV that commentators name is Johnny Most I used to hate watch Celtics games and hearing him talk
What's the most hurtful to me, as a genuine fat boy, is that if he did do that (and in all seriousness, he probably didn't, LOL) he's STILL pretty lanky and thin even into his old age!
No...Bird got a good ponch on him! Lol. Or a spare tire whatever anybody calls it anymore ...LOL. Well ..he had it for a little while until he started having some health issues. Then he had to lose a few lbs.
It’s one thing when the media hypes you, another when the fans hype you… but it’s a whole other level when your peers and adversaries hype you
Factsp
True that
Agreed . Best/highest praise one can receive is from among his/her peers , people that you compete against or with every day. Who could possibly judge the caliber of player he was better than they ?!!
So true. Its really the only time you can be sure that theres no bias in the opinion
Something LeBron will never understand
There will never ever ever be another Larry Bird
-Magic Johnson
I never saw him shake anyone’s hand except for Majic. He really loved him and had a lot of respect for him!!!
Yeah that is genuine love they had
Magic, was him Mom's favorite Player
Yea it went both ways yea they love each other today. I'm 80s baller like them. When ball was real n men where real no labronda n lababy sh.
What I loved most about Bird, he was a team player. He would shoot when he had the shot but if a teammate had a better shot, Bird would get the ball to him! Just watch Bird's passing!
Bird was underrated as a passer and a defender. "Don't let winning make you soft. Don't let losing make you quit. Don't let your teammates down in any situation."
Best quote I've heard from someone not named Thomas Jefferson.
I will back up what you said about Bird. In fact, I think it's very underrated how he would know when he absolutely was the one who had to take the shot, even before the play call. He could sense things. In the middle of a game there was nobody better at dishing the ball, but at the end of a crisis game, forget it, he was taking the shot and somehow that was consistent with him being a disher. He just had an uncanny sense to know when it was time to take over. Move over Rover, let Larry take over!
The broadcaster was Johnny Most. He did play by play for the Celtics for many years and he's a legend himself. The man wrote poetry as a hobby and he used that skill during games, making up unflattering nicknames for opposing players and referring to them by those nicknames as he passionately painted each Celtics game as an epic battle of good vs evil. LOL!
When Celtics games were broadcast on network TV we all tuned in, turned the TV sound down and turned the radio up. "This is Johnny Most, broadcasting to you from high above courtside", as you could see him sitting at a table on the sideline. When he died the Celtics retired his microphone, and today it hangs in the rafters of the Garden alongside the retired players numbers and championship banners, "high above courtside." Yeah, we all loved him.
That’s a beautiful story that they retired his microphone. Epic battle of good an evil😂
Yeah, Johnny Most was quite the distinctive voice back in the day. I remember the local comedians would all have a few bits about him, and some bars would run Johnny Most sound alike contests.
Johnny Most was raspy because he smoked like a chimney but he was definitely an iconic voice for the Boston Celtics.
@@BU_TV Most also aside from nicknames, made up phrases too...
The phrase I'll associate the most with Most is, "Bird fiddles and diddles."
Thanks for sharing this epic story ❤
That late great DJ was way underrated. His basketball IQ was top notch just like Bird. Perfect marriage
I never get tired of watching videos of Bird.
Your reactions are great and you certainly get the greatness of Bird.
Appreciate ya and thanks! He was a beast
Larry and DJ together were magical. That steal against the Pistons was my favorite play ever. I remember seeing Larry swoop in seemingly out of nowhere, but that would have been for naught if DJ hadn't been there to put things to bed. God, I miss those days!
JOHNNY MOST. 37 yrs as the Celtics announcer. You could never mistake Johnny's voice for anyone else.
Its of legend
@@BU_TV True
As a child, maybe 12, I met Johnny Most at Friendly's and got his autograph. I bet my father still has it.
@@theignorantsinneradam1900 Man is that is too cool
Also.... Kevin McHale is the MOST underrated low post player in history. That guy broke ankles before it was even a thing.
Bro, you gotta get Larry on your show. If you do, you'll have a million views in less than a week, and quit your day job. For as much trash Bird used to talk, you never hear a peep out of him these days. He's invisible. He doesn't give interviews, never appears on sports media shows, never responds to anything about him, whether it's positive or negative (i.e: the JJ Reddick recent comments) and is never seen. It's almost as if he never existed. LOL. Great reaction as always!
You are a hundred! Larry dont give a fuh about the noise around him, just like when he was playing. Mf got his own life to live. Hmmmmmm quit my day job and my night job! I will try to get his attention!
That's the 2nd time JJ Reddick disrespected a Celtics
About the radio announcer Johnny Most..."Turn down the TV and turn up Johnny". So many lived in the country and on farms (especially in Indiana) back then. Cable TV was only about 10 channels and only came to smaller towns later in the 80s. Most only had 2 or 3 channels by antenna (if you lived in a good location) . It was so different, we all saw the same shows and news. We were one America. Also, watching TV was something many of the working class men did very little and the older men often made fun of men who did. The radio was the way of our dads and grandparents generation and many preferred it, especially working late hours in the barn or garage after a full day in the field, in the workshop, or at the factory. The radio announcers excitement was as close to a big screen TV as you could get most places st that time. We were also a car culture and spent a lot of our time on muscle cars so the radio was number one. Unless you special ordered an FM radio in the 80s, most cars only had a static prone AM radio if any. With AM radio, you lost signal going under bridges and power lines. I lived from 1971 through all of this until now and people now don't even think about not having smartphones just 10 or 15 years ago. What a time to have witnessed in human history. Now if we can just keep the spoiled, clueless, indoctrinated idiots from burning it all down into the dark ages again.
Your last line may be prophetic unfortunately.
That exactly right. Me and my friends would have the game on the radio while in the garage wrenching on cars and motorcycles. Beer getting drank, felt like we were there while working in a smokey garage. The good ol days.
Besides, the radio was preferred by any kid who was standing next to the TV holding onto the antenna wrapped in Aluminum foil to keep the signal so Others could watch it. 😊
The cool thing about Nick Smith's series is he gets all the footage so you can see what happened as the stories are told.
He puts in alot of work
That shot at 7:15 while he's falling out of bounds, but still shoots it OVER the backboard and in is classic!
"Larry Bird has the ball, look out."
😂😂😂
😂😂😂💯💯💯
Johnny Most is the broadcaster you asked about. A notorious chain smoker, he did the radio broadcasts. He was an icon in his own right.
Ah the chain smoking! I hear it! Thank you!
Just when you think you have heard them all.. I grew up watching this man and was hooked instantly. New stories always coming out after all these years. I love listening to all the legends of THE NBA ERA, the golden-age, finally given up these stories!! Lot of players have held a lot of grudges but they are all sharing them with us now--except for one. Yeah, we all know who that is--Jordan--he's still pissed that he never beat Bird in a playoff game and that he was brought to tears after the second sweep on the bench. Yeah--that is Jordan's story. I will tell it for him --"Man, he beat me 6 playoff games in a row-back-to-back sweeps-and all I could do was try to hide my tears on the bench near the end of the final sweep. He beat me more than anyone and I never could get him. We would scratch him and claw him to where it looked like he was in a knife fight but he would just shoot game-winners over me and Scotty's double-teams at the buzzer in our faces" --watch the tape and ask Jordan for his Bird stories that don't involve exhibition teams.
On the Dream Team during a game MJ said to the opposing players “Why are you guys double teaming me?!”
Then pointed saying THAT’S Larry Bird!!”
That is the legendary Johnny Most we loved him 🐐
That guy is awesome😂 ty!
@@BU_TV As I recall, he had only one lung - smoked too many cigarettes (a two-pack-a-day cigarette habit, even during his many health problems).
Your a good fan, man. Kobe was a winner--much respect. The more you watch Bird, the more you will see things no one ever did before. There is a whole world of basketball there that a lot of people don't know exists. Enjoy it.
I think the sports broadcaaters name is Johnny Most, always sounded like his voice was blown out but a sports broadcasting icon even then---LOL
Johnny Most my guy! Thank you!😂
I think this is what made Bird great. He wasn't super athletic, wasn't fast, wasn't muscular, and couldn't jump. He truly almost looked sloppy when he played. But he was a student of the game and studied players and tendencies and their movements and habits. That's what made him great. I've watched a couple of clips on Kobe and he was the same. He studied and was a student of body movements and the game itself. They're are alot of good players, but very few GREAT players. The great ones keep studying, learning and evolving. They hate losing more than they like winning.
Well said! I agree
That hug between bird and DJ means everything.
Right?!?
Sir, you have one of the best Larry legend video series on TH-cam 🔥👊😁
Oh wow thank you for the compliment! I appreciate ya! Trying to absorb as much as I can!
i got to admit I'm right there with you on the voice of the legendary Celtics announcer Johnny Most. His whiskey drinking, chain smoking, raspy voiced calls of Celtics games are so distinct and unique that nobody can compare to him. RIP 🙏 Johnny Most 1923-1993. I love and respect the work your putting in here on your channel. Fine job.
You a real one Ronnie! Appreciate ya! And RIP!
It was so good to see larry smiling.
Bird and Magic is a show everyone talks about MJ but there was a young man by the name of Len Bias that never got his chance who I think was better than MJ.
To add to your comment about Len Bias:
Bird was asked in an interview “What if Len Bias had lived. What would have been different?”
Bird’s reply was chilling.
He said, “I would have retired in ‘88.”
@@dhaleyster I saw that interview and Larry didn't hesitate when he said it.
Simply put ,who doesn't go damn bird is Freaking awesome #LB33 ❤🐦
😂😂😂
I live in New England and remember the Larry Bird era well. At the time I just considered him a great local hero. I appreciate how great he was now more than I did then.
I hear ya! I didn’t realize how beloved he was at one point either
Larry Legend The GOAT
That puts tears in my eyes. Thank you for the great memories sir. Oorah BU TV!
Thank you for your service sir!
Not going back to the Bill Russell Wilt Chamberlain days Bird , Magic and MJ are the greatest players in NBA history. Bird and Magic saved the league and passed it own to MJ. No disrespect to Kobe and the others that followed but the game was to physical for them boys. Plus Bird and Magic played during the golden years when the league was full of greats
And Kobe is Birds favorite player.
Bird knows!
I'm thinking if the video creator found more footage for a story after having made the first video, instead of sitting on it, he shared it and still provided context. I'm glad he did 😊
I think this is a very good series. He has a new video out about Bird's 60 point game with interviews etc.
Yeah thats what i figured as well
@@BU_TV We used to have the TV volume off and listen to Johnny Most. Nowadays with digital media it doesn't synch as well
i live in Terre Haute where bird went to isu. i was 6 years old and remember watching the game. i had no idea what's going on but remember the adults around me yelling screaming. And isu has never been closer to that level since.
Thanks for the story! Thats awesome
This is by far the best video on Larry Bird and you guys did fantastic 😉👍
Legends roamed the NBA courts in the 80's.
I love Birds trash talking!!! 😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥🏀🌠. Great reaction! I hadn't seen a few of these & I loved it! Getting harder to find stories or clips I haven't seen yet! Lol.
I was reading an article about Johnny Most, the Celtics announcer. I truly enjoy listening to him. He sounds like an interesting character.
Found out that he was an aerial gunner on a B-24 Liberator during WWII.
Unfortunately he was a heavy smoker and had many heath complications from it, even having both legs amputated above the knee. They said that he was unable to stop smoking even after it was banned inside the Boston Gardens (not sure what year). He passed away from a heart attack at the age of 69.
I worked in a hospital, quite a few years back when smoking was still allowed there, and saw people with emphysema still light up just after receiving a cardio pulmonary treatment. It can be such a hard habit to quit. So sad.
I had no idea he had wings as Aircrew! Salute!
Larry always looks a little embarrassed when Nolan Richardson is telling this story but Magic and Bill Russell are enjoying it!
Ty for the show Larry is one bad ass dude period
Bird the Goat!
Birds a Bird!!
I love watching Larry Bird play his career as a Celtic, in the 80s basketball is just beautiful
The announcer fir the Celtics, his name is Andy Jick, he clled Celtics games from 1980-1997. He passed away at age 66...I am older than that.
I grew up watching him live and this guy did amazing job on this bird vid ❤,I follow him ,but yeah bird did it all ,now another generation gets it cause of all of you putting up these vids , TY TY TY ,I feel like I'm back there again with my dad ❤ #larrybird 🐦❤
Watching this all I think of is; RIP DJ
Never forgotten RIP
I'll be honest, I never got to see most of their games on TV. I heard one of their playoff games at Gunnery in the Army in the mid 80's. LOVE seeing these videos now. Couldn't watch TV in HS (80-84), was in the Army 9/84'-7/88'. But I definitely remember listening to the playoffs at Gunnery on the radio.
I love this channel. Kobe fan who loves Bird. Its great.
Hey thanks fam! Who is your fav player?
The announcer for the Celtics in the 70s and 80s is JOHNNY MOST!!
Smoked cigarettes in the Boston garden before/after games
Johnny Most awesome commentator. Celtic legend announcer. I think he may be in Hall of Fame
14:55 That pass to Bird from Dennis Johnson was in game 5 of the '87 EFC.
In that Phoenix game, where he told the Suns that he was getting the ball and going to shoot a 3, after he makes the shot, he turned to the Phoenix bench and said "told you so." You can see that at 10:40.
Good call!
TO ANSWER WHO WAS BROADCASTING..HIS NAME WAS JONNY MOST. ONE OF THE MOST EXCITING BROADCASTER THERE
WAS. HIS HEART OF THE GAME WAS UNREAL. R.I.P.❤❤❤
The Legend for sure
Larry!
That announcer is the late great Johnny Most. On October 10, 1990, Johnny Most announced his retirement due to health concerns. On December 3 of that year, Most was honored with the permanent installation of his microphone at Boston Garden, silver-plated and encased in a Celtic-green frame.
Love your reaction! Thank you.
Thanks! I appreciate ya!
Jonny Most, when I was kid listening to the game, I heard Jonny Most screaming about a fight between Bird and Limber. That's when I became a Celtics fan
The Celtic announcer during the Bird steal was the legendary Johnny Most.
That was a shot only Bird and DJ played, they did it with each other, and both if caught without a way to pass, they would bounce it off the glass and shoot it for 2 points, that clip is at 14:56 I believe.
Always on my top 5 of all time.
Great video good work
Saw almost every big game in Boston Garden from 81 to 87, loved Bird. DJ and Max were so under-rated, just awesome players. Without max those first 2 would have never happened. The lakers and Celtics of the 80's were the two best teams of all time. They'd destroy today's wimpy teams.
Bird would drop 60 a game in this pussy league and he’ll call it that too! Greatest games EVER the start of game on CBS and the shot of the train to the Boston Garden, then a crazed Celtic faithful one being my Mom in my living room yelling Beat LA! As a Lakers fan you know the hate, but Bird is in my top five forever!
Thanks for bringing light to the legend❤❤😂😂🎉🎉✌🏽✌🏽☮️☮️
if Nolan Richardson says that about you, its about the biggest compliment you can get. nolan is an expert at recognizing talent. he should be a consultant for nba drafts.
Not only did he talk trash...he bagged it up, tied a bow and threw it at you!
The 86 team was the best I ever seen. I'd put that team against any team today !!
Celtics announcer was Johnny Most. Instantly recognizable voice of the Celtics for 37 years.
Larry Bird is the greatest player ever!
The sun’s one is amazing, at the end a player from the sun’s bench give Larry five.
WEDDING cakes--lol Its not like Larry didnt earn the right to eat those wedding cakes-!!LOL
He was married to the game after-all!
Bird, GOAT ever
Even Magic agreed, Larry had a little brutha in him.
Larry Bird the best there ever was, THANK YOU.
Rex you are the 2nd best ever then!
I hated Laimbeer and Isiah, but I never hated Dominique. He was so good and classy.
All the best and I hope 🙏 well
Thank ya, and back to you
The Celtics long time announcer was Johnny Most. He had the job from 1953 to 1990, called the Russell dynasty and the Bird dynasty
And yet while he was Coach, sinking 3's leaving them speechless. DOH!
Larry's passing video is the best one to watch
Celtics announcer Johnny Most was just that, the "most", with that raspy, gravelly, boisterous voice.
Kobe had Larry in his top 5 look it up
Coop is a great interview. Smart words
Some of us were lucky enough to watch this live...havent finished a game since
I'm not sure that you ever featured the story of Larry Bird in the 1981 semi-final against the Sixers when Larry Bird literally took over the last three games to win them totally himself overcoming losing three of the first four games to a powerful Sixers team. There has never been a player that can raise there game to that level. He is the goat without any question. It's an unbelievable story that brought me tears of joy watching watching such godly perfection. This can be found here: "The best Larry Bird underdog story ever told." Take a good look at the likely possibility of any team accomplishing this from that far behind, and than going on and winning the finals in addition. No team has ever done it before and none will ever do it again. Gerald Smith.
The unanswered question is: what if Larry Bird didn't hurt his back?
Or had the medical technology of today back then.
Growing up in Boston, spent many nights listening to Johnny Most!!
Johnny Most was the color broadcaster on the radio.
Celtics Broadcaster Johnny Most! Use to shut the volume down on the TV and listen to Most on the radio during games!
Celtics commentator Johnny Most is a legend.
As I am finding out yup!
the great Johnny Most!!!
Thanks for digging these shorts up.
I enjoy doing it! Thanks for supporting!
Johnny Most was the Celtics announcer.
His name was Johnny Most. The Celtic announcer.
The name of the announcer you're thinking of was Jonny Most
Johnny Most, the broadcaster for the Cs, was a chain smoker, and one night during a game he lit his own crotch on fire. True story. Right in the middle of a game. I can't remember much about it except thinking, "What the hell is he DOING??" His voice was fucked up by the butts, and I think he died later of throat cancer.
Set his what on fire?!?🤣🤣🤣 RIP to the GOAT
Johnny Most was a legend in Boston. He was a radio announcer and most people would turn the sound off their TVs and watch while Johnny called the game.
@@BU_TV sorry, I didn't see your response earlier. Yeh, Johnny set his crotch on fire! He somehow got careless with a butt in the middle of a game. Either the butt or the live ashes fell on his crotch and he didn't notice. Then came the screeches and self flagellation. As you can imagine, many laughs for a long time from the fans. If you set yourself on fire in the middle of calling an NBA game there has to be some special seat of honor at the HoF for you!
@@sharihoutman I thought that was bullshit until I had a chance to compare Most to the national TV guys, or the local NBA guys. While Johnny was the ultimate homer, he was also an astute observer and had a knack for compressing several sentences into one. Once you got used to his style he could tell you what happened with an absolute minimum of words. That's tough to do in any sport, but especially a fast moving sport. I think Fred Cusick did a similar job for the Bruins? I would say so. It's tough to describe things to an audience that can't see the action.
The name of the Celtics broadcaster is Johnny most. He was the longest tenured broadcaster. I think he made the hall of fame.
You should watch "Legendary Celtics Johnny Most blasting the Detroit Pistons" 😂🤣😂
No doubt!! Can you go to this video and drop that request for me so I dont miss it? Appreciate ya!

The broadcaster's name was, Johnny Most
For me I like team leaders that are team players and are respected by their peers . That filters out a lot of great athletes on my goat list.
Are those headphones working? He said wedding cakes.
Its not the headphones its the ear wax 🤣
