Dennis Johnson sadly died in 2007 at the age of 52 from a heart attack. He was coaching and collapsed at the end of practice. RIP DJ! 🙏
So sad❤❤
@@carilin1965Sad,at the time people didn't realize how good Dennis was.
RIP D.J.
@@donechols3937 I think it depends on who you talk to .....but I have to agree not enough people know how great DJ was!
Larry knows said DJ was the smartest player he ever played with.
Both Bird and Majic saved the NBA for their rivalry
Larry was probably in the top 3 passers of all time too. That dude was the total package.
That's what I'm saying. Yes there were better dunkers of course, better shooters, better defenders, better stealer & maybe one or two better passers but Bird was top 5 in all those categories. And his game IQ made everyone else on court look like children. Like Kareem said the muscle between his ears was his strongest weapon. Best overall player ever in my opinion.
Larry Legend is the G.O.A.T of trash talkers. 🏀
The number of NBA greats that Bird played against that tell these stories is just amazing.
What's even more amazing is he did all this while having a bad back.
Yessir...
60 pts ...with ONLY 1 three- point shot!!!!!
In regulation time
Larry and Magic saved the NBA without a doubt.
That game was in February 1981. Bird had 36 Points, 21 Rebounds 6 Assist, 5 Steals and 3 Blocks.
21:58 Nolan Richardson. He was being inducted into the Hall of Fame as a coach.
yeah... Nolan, and I think it one of the most funniest stories ever
I don't know who the greatest-of-all-time is, but the GOAT of basketball stories is definitely Larry Bird.
The greatest all around basketball player ever!!! Thank you for showing Larry Bird the respect he truly deserves! I love his trash talking too! 😂
Yes, RIP DJ
Magic and Birds respect for each other is a testament to how competition breeds respect.
Making it look easy is where the genius resides.
When magic came out for this part of Larry's retirement ceremony, he got a standing ovation!!.... that is respect and love
Bird, MJ and Magic are my all time favorites. I grew up with kids of all backgrounds, so I never saw color. I appreciate you mentioning skin tone. They were my friends. We might look different, but we have the same blood.
I absolutely hate the fact that the younger generation never got to see Bird, Johnson, and MJ live. The 80's and 90's were a hell-of-a-time to watch the NBA. I stand by the fact that a lot of today's superstars would be good to average players back then. The reason for that statement is the fact the defense was different back then. In the 80's, if you went to the rim you had a 50/50 chance the defender would go for your head instead of the ball!
Only man in history to get an opponent falling off the bench in awe
The perfect role model. No holes in a his game or his personality.
Great reaction again..
Yessir. Larry Legend...
Bird was BIG ..6'10..
big as LeBron..
Some players would not want the pressure and heavy responsibility of taking that crucial game winning shot, but Larry Thrived on it.
Free-throw shots r too important. Guys dont take it seriously now. 90+%
I still love to hear Jayson Williams tell his first experience with Larry, dude is hilarious.
Let’s gooooooo🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm from Boston and have seen ALLLL the Larry Bird reactions. You are my absolute favorite! I have never seen anyone (esp the younger people) who have such deep knowledge of thar great era. Imagine if a player like Bird had access to the health, training, and sports medicine advancements that have happened in the last 40 years! Imagine with all those advantages combined with Larry's mental toughness, grit, his mental and scrappy, physical talent... HIS TRASH TALKING... his ability to play hurt (like when he ran back out into the game to help his team after he had FRACTURED! HIS! CHEEKBONE! and had a concussion after that vicious fall where his head and face literally BOUNCED off the floor!) Who DOES that now? Guys practically leave the game over a hangnail these days. He played so hard, he fell apart early, but he played through the pain for so long, and his stats for what he accomplished during his short career are jaw dropping.
Larry Bird mastered "Ultra instinct" long before Goku did in DragonBall Z.
Hey Buddy I hope you read this, the story that you said you like the best was told by the great Nolan Richardson. He as the first Black American to win a NCAA National Championship in Basketball at The University of Arkansas in 1994. This Coach is a legend, he was nothing but a winner. One of the greats.
He's just so much fun to listen to. Or to learn about in general.
I really loved your reaction to LB.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Good reaction. On my all time starting five, Bird is my small forward.
Love ur Bird respect 🙏 🫡
You need to react to Larry Bird's legendry 60pt game (against the Hawks) 1985
Good one.. Thunder Dan Marjle...
The full package, last second heroics, fun trash talk. And him and Magic gave the NBA 2 faces you could be proud to rep the league. And the touch on that middy, sheesh.
Enjoyed your reaction 😊 For me Larry Bird's trash talking, either broke a player down, or forced an opponent to be a better player, & it was the strength of the player, which way they were affected.......that was just a part of who Bird was 😊
I love Nolan Richardson story of listing to the game on the radio, while he's being inducted in the hall that's respect. 33 in green
This, by far, was the best Bird reaction. This is my era of the NBA, it was amazing watching these men compete; I'm a Magic fan. I hate today's NBA, I miss these guys. Thanks bruh. ❤❤❤
I love the respect you show for Larry Legend. 😁
Courtship of rivals bord and magic
just posted it
He was absolutely amazing!!
18:49. For some of the most beautiful basketball you’ve ever seen, check out the 1992 Dream Team documentary. 11 future Hall of Famers. Everyone was glued to their TVs whenever they played. It was an epic time. Larry and Magic were co-captains. It was also the last time either played I watch the documentary often and still feel the excitement when I saw it happen!
And he did it with his warm-up clothes on
Bird is unique. When you nearly average a triple double for a career, you should be a FREAK athlete that rivals Jordan. But Bird was a BIG 6 '9 that could shoot from long distance and pass. Just the way Luka makes everyone look BAD at basketball today, so did Bird years ago.
The 80's Bird vs Magic ❤️
If you havent already id really like to see you react to Larry Birds retirement ceremony - there were a couple small snippets of it in this video but ya really need to see the whole ceremony - its full of a laundry list of hall of famers and NBA greats.
Bird was and is one of a kind..
Magic wasn't only magic in the way He played. Magic was magic in his words his friend and foe, truly eloquent.
You are right, Basketball isn't the same now, that's why older people like me rather watch an old game from the 80's or 90's than a live game. It was different back then. It was tough, physical, mentally draining. Players then were different. You had to have really big balls to step on that court with guys like Larry, Jordan, Magic,....
well done, young man
The guy telling the college game story is Nolan Richardson. Former coach at Arkansas.
You're right though. All the great white players play the same way. They always rebound, assist and score. With Bird being CLUTCH AF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've watched a lot of Larry Bird videos and I have to say this is the best. Thank You for a job well done.
Players in the NBA now don't try to embarrass the other player. They don't compete against each other like it's personal. It was Personal in the 80s and 90s. If you didn't show up ready you got embarrassed.
Atlanta coach told Dominique Wilkins that they were charged 3,000 Dollars Each but he actually charged the players 100 Dollars Each. And when they walked out they said to each other that was the Best 100 Dollar Seat in the House. 😂 Larry Bird was just Different than everyone else and had the Best Outside Shot in the League!!!! And Kasey was told by Red if Larry Bird wants the ball 🏀 you give him the ball! That's from the Owner, Larry Bird was always calling the Shots and he would get everyone involved in the Game. Larry Bird loved getting his Team a Big lead and check out early in the 4th Quarter sometimes the 3rd Quarter. Just so his Backups are getting real game experience under their belts. And that just makes him and the Team ALL AROUND TEAM PLAY!!!! Can Win Champion 🏆 Game.
Today's NBA is SOFT!! One thing young people do not realize about the NBA up into the 80's, it was a real fight every night. A fight would break out in almost every game. There were fouls called but nobody would be thrown out of the game for fighting. You kept going and you kept fighting. It was so much tougher then. Today, you blow your breath too hard on a guy and it's a foul.
Great video. Much respect to you pzotheplug.
IMO... there has been many great players. Players that were exceptional in certain parts of the game. Larry was exceptional in ALL part of the game. That includes coaching and in management. He is the greatest all around player or individual in basketball history.
Yes. RIP DJ
Great basketball knowledge. You'd love a Jamal Mashburn story about Dream Team Bird with an "assist" from Magic 😉
George Gervin, the "Ice Man"
Ty Pzo for giving Larry Legend his props, and ty for , putting other reactors on to Larry legend, I love Larry legend. Because he gave us his all every night, when Larry legend came to Boston the city went crazy he was amazing, unbelievable best years of my life the excitement I'm telling you just the best, I'm still a Celtics fan. But it just isn't the same I don't feel that excitement anymore the craziness.,but I loved magic too ty my friend ❤❤❤
He and Majic saved the NBA hall of fame story for me is tied with Jamal Mashburn story about Rodney Roger's bs Larry Bird
Great assessment brother
Thanks for posting this. Great memories of some of the most fun times in basketball history.
PZO LARRY LEGEND JUST LOVED THE GAME OF BASKETBALL, TY PZO FOR TURNING OTHER SUBSCRIBERS ONTO LARRY legend thx again PZO❤
Here’s a reality check….. they were calling him Larry legend while he was still playing……🧐🧐🥴😂
when larry bird amd magic started the 3 point shoot was not used that much and was not tought in highschool
You got to see Shawn Kemp Larry Bird.
here's the really funny thing.. Bird's momma said her favorite player was magic. lol she loved the boy and he would visit her and bird lots of times. lol
Birds the goat. My 5 = MJ, BIRD, DOMINIQUE, KOBE, RUSSELL IN ANY ORDER. people who say theres one are too stupid to know how basketball 🏀 is
Bird story is told by Nolan Richardson
Good show Pzo!
Love your reactions ❤
Not sure if you have reacted to it yet, but if you haven't. React to Magic vs Bird a courtship of rivals. It will get be you a whole new respect and outlook on the NBA. Easily the best NBA documentary there is.
Luka isn't winking at anyone...
Good observations
Bird could swish it and make it go where he wanted it.
Top of the key…SWISH…Runs to the baseline… balls headed there.
A lot of people don't realize that the clip they always show of Larry faking a dude out so bad he falls is Dominic Wilkins not just some guy and then he waited for him to get up so it was that much worse when he put it in.
great video.... respect!!!!
Hello from Cody 😊you're awesome keep it up
In one game he could of had a Quadruple Double at the end of the 3rd. He sat out the 4th quarter.
Top 3
Top 3 easy. Just did not have a weakness.
Doc's voice has gone downhill from screaming from the sidelines as a coach. And the Nolan Richardson story ("...when I saw the picture...") I also think might have been the funniest of the bunch. At 67 yrs old, I am an old Knick fan, and he used to drive me to despair killing my team. But I have a new respect for him, too, now that he's no longer driving a stake into my heart on a regular schedule.
The man worked harder than probably anyone ever. He just became great because he worked so hard. He was confident and could back up what he told other players. His trash talk was psychological warfare. And when he backed it up he instilled fear and gained respect. It wasn't insultive or vulgar or mean spirited it was competitive psychological warfare. And it is not effective unless you back it up.
No better than Larry Legend
That's gary payton
😄👍🔥🏀
John Chaney used to coach Temple
Also those are still the days where certain regions/states produced better players in certain sports. You could count on good baseball/football from the south and good basketball players from the Midwest & Northeast. (The best from my home of Indiana - clearly not biased 😉🙃)
Celtics of, Larry's era was really good,as well as the prior, Celtic teams. Parrish went on to win a championship with, Jordan.
That game against Magic I looked it up it was 36 points 21 rebounds 6 assist 5 steals and 3 blocks it probably felt like that to him it was in 1981 I did not see Magic had any stats so I'm guessing that is it
Larry Bird would have busted Draymond Green's ass to the ground. And then make him cry in the locker room.
Draymond Green belongs in the Magic/Bird era. Born in the wrong generation to truly shine and it's a damn shame.
Bird?....a trash talker? No he's great.
Micheal Jordan scored 63 points against Boston and lost the game.
No they wanted to play like Bird
Soooooooooooo....
Who DID come in second?
