I think Larry has that really dry sense of humor, kind of associated with the Midwest. He’s serious, and then all of a sudden something really funny comes out of his mouth. I love when all of the BB players are sitting around the table… They look so gigantic - like they’re sitting on kindergarten chairs.
Larry busting a three on Craig Ehlo (the same from the 1989 Jordan buzzer beater) and asking him if his mother was watching was cold blooded...that must really sting...
Your Welcome I love seeing them being funny and having a good time THX BU for the shout out take care ty again I enjoy your reactions and channel 👍🐐🏀☘️
I am a 75 year old short white woman, loved basketball but until Larry Bird & Magic Johnson came into the NBA, basketball was just good, when they came into the NBA I became a rabid fan. Saw Bird play at LA against Magic, nothing better!
Yup, you're right, Bird is as cold as Jordan was, a stone cold killer. And these clips show something that doesn't get talked about much: Bird's height, you notice that he's taller than a bunch of guys listed at 6,9" - everybody says the same thing when they see him- I didn't know he was so freakin big
Perhaps one of the greatest things about Larry was that he never talked about who was the GOAT. It was about the Celtics, not him. As for his trash talking, yeah he was brutal, especially on rookies, but when an opposing player showed him something, Larry acknowledged it with a grin.
There will never ever be another Magic or Larry. Saw both play many many times in BG . The two best teams of all time by far. Jordan got crushed until those two were old or broken. Not sure Jordan ever won in the BG when Bird was there. Over-rated.
I will tell you that football is my life. Since I was 3 until my late 50’s when I almost died I was closely associated with football. Now I watch more football than I ever have. I grew up liking most team sports in America (no soccer and hockey) love the olympic sports. But the 80’s Celtics and Larry Bird became my team. And I consider him my all time hero. Thank you for showing us this reminder of the man he was outside the court. I thank TH-cam for the platform that shows the new fans just how good he was. Remember, he also won coach of the year and GM of the year with the Pacers.
The Complete Compilation of Larry Bird's Greatest Stories Told By NBA Players & Legends PARTS 1 - 4 th-cam.com/video/9Kq53Shq1js/w-d-xo.html There's nothing else that even comes close to this series by Nick Smith Basketball. In part four they talk about Larry playing with a full back brace in that final season.
Really, really enjoyed the video. I lived in Boston in the 80's, Bird was the word there. Black, white...didn't make any difference, that big city adored him! Living in Massachusetts you really have to be a Celtics fan!! Of course Larry the Legend was my favorite player.
Bird is Legendary. Respect. Loved Kobe's game. GOAT in his era. Incredible ability. Bird made his teammates better players, like Bill Russell and Magic Johnson did. And, Jordan did the same.
@@BU_TV Agreed, Jordan is the GOAT, after Russell, because 11 rings vs 6 and 0. Jordan is my ultimate favorite. If rings don't matter, Jordan ALL the way, Brother
@@bobdavis3357I was 9 when I watched Magic and Bird NCAA Championship game with my dad. He liked Bird and I liked Magic, which is why I'm a Laker's fan. What I'm about to say hurt's deeply. I think Bird was better then Magic, not by a lot. I think In his time playing Bird was the goat as an individual player, who passed it to Jordan, who then passed it to Kobe, who passed it to LBJ. My top 5 player's of all time. Bill Russell, MJ, Bird, Kobe, Jerry West. Tks for this video. I'm happy to say I am a new subscriber.
@@grapeapes1445 Wilt was the most dominant in his era. Bird was a better scorer and rebounder, better shot blocker(not by much), not as flashy a passer, but a superb passer nevertheless. Magic could have averaged 30ppg, easily. Both players saved the NBA. Fact. There are no greater NBA glory years.
Actually, I really enjoyed your observation on the commercial streak. Some of them were so cheesy, but it started a trend that is improving. I would love to see more of your research into all sports “rivalries” commercials. You are really brilliant at this.
I would love to see any bloopers that might be out there with Bird, Jordan and Barkeley doing those crazy McDonald's commercials! LOL. Poor Charles...😂😂😂
Love your reaction to Bird and to the family guy episode about the Bird and Jordan commercials. Really good content. Definitely deserves a like and subscription.
Thank you so much for doing this! This was very funny/enjoyable... I had never seen this before. Larry Bird is one of those guys ...he doesn't say much but when he does say something ...you pay attention!
I remember watching bird against magic ! I was and still a laker fan ! Basketball back then to me was much more a pass and go go go ! Today's game is great as well but I like the 80's style the best ! Larry Bird was and still is a top player in the NBA !
I'd like to preface this by a quote by Pat Riley: "If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save a game I'd choose Michael Jordan.. If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save my life... I'd take Larry Bird." I love Michael and I think he is the GOAT. But, here is the problem. He's the pinnacle of basketball, but he is not the original. He took so many parts from so many other players and made them his own. And perfected them, and went ahead and became the GOAT. BUT, a large portion of what Michael is, is directly borrowed from Bird. Another part directly borrowed from Magic. Michael incorporated so many people into his game. And ask him, he's going to tell you who his heroes are. But who were Birds heroes? Who are the people that Bird wanted to walk the path of? Anyone heard of John Havlicek? I think Bird kinda walked his own path.
Hello BU, I can't watch many of the basketball reactions, BECAUSE THEY TALK TOO MUCH!!! Your site will be mine too now!!! You don't interrupt all the time & we get to see the video. YOU ARE GREAT🏀🙂
Did you know that Margaret Johnson and Michael Jordan? Took members of the dream team and had an until off to see. Who was the? Better. Team while Larry wired watched in the corner
No I haven’t! French Lick is a very small town! Blink your eyes and you drive right through it! If you watch the David letterman’s interview with bird and Magic and David says you’re from a small town called French Lick and the crowd laughs and Larry says you must be from the town over! Witch is Martinsville Indiana, where there was a strong KKK idiotic mind set!
I think Bird and Charles are the funniest basketball players we have, everything they say sounds off script and natural, it's just who they really are which is quite entertaining
What do you think about Keyshon Boutte and Malik Cummingham of the Pats. Does Malik have a chance to start out of training camp? Could Keyshon be great. GOAT like??
@@BU_TV all the way, Bruv. Still love me Kobe. He was Jordan 2.0 and holds the second highest scoring record in NBA history with 81. My heart tanks whenever I think of Kobe and Gianna. Such a hard loss.
Really enjoyed the video. Another funny story was regarding Danny Ainge. Apparently Ainge scored 14 points in the 4 th quarter of a game. Ainge then told everybody in the locker room that he was the best 4th quarter player on the team, Bird’s response was something like “I should hope so your guy was double teaming myself or McHale the whole 4 th quarter”
With all due respect, I am not a narcissist. Second, when I started these videos, I had a tiny window of me on the screen so people could see the video….People started inquiring about expanding it, so that they can see my reaction better. I took a poll to see what people preferred and the votes were split even. So I have been testing out different methods to see which works best. If you look at my latest content I have found a perfect medium between the WebCam and the videos. Cheers friend🫡
dude, you made you 3 time bigger than who you made it of,,,,get real! as you put it, with all due respect, the only people that care about you reaction is you! they watch Kobe and Bird, not the author. You think when someone makes a funny commercial the audience wants to see the producers, exactly...why not just make a video with just YOU in the picture watching one of these videos and see what kind of reaction you get from viewers? nice try sir

Bird was all business on the court, but was hysterical off the court.
Facts
💯‼️we loved our 🐦man
A riot!

I’m so glad I got to watch Bird, Magic, and Jordan on tv when I was a kid.
I will live through your stories
I got to see them when I was a young adult. Ah fuck, I'm old.
Absolutely the best time to watch the NBA !! Real defense was played and teams stayed together!!
Me too great players great guys ❤❤❤
Remember the Dream Team

Haha! Thats awesome! Love how you added “short”🤣
I liked the time when he told a Utah Jazz player "Is your mother watching?"
It was Craig Ehlo, that was cold blooded!
That was savage!
I love the one where all the bb guys are sitting at that tiny table 😂😂😂
Seeing Larry sitting next to Bill Russell was fantastic, two perfect diamonds of the NBA. Bill's laugh was the best.
His laugh was amazing
Yup, you're right, Bird is as cold as Jordan was, a stone cold killer. And these clips show something that doesn't get talked about much: Bird's height, you notice that he's taller than a bunch of guys listed at 6,9" - everybody says the same thing when they see him- I didn't know he was so freakin big
Bird was on point for that Letterman interview. I've watched that a few times. He's funny as h*ll.
Bird stay on it!
Quote from the mind of every guy my age watching those Converse commercials "I had a pair of those heavy-assed shoes."😄
Who else would Mike "share" a major commercial with?? Nobody... but Larry. Says something....
Perhaps one of the greatest things about Larry was that he never talked about who was the GOAT. It was about the Celtics, not him. As for his trash talking, yeah he was brutal, especially on rookies, but when an opposing player showed him something, Larry acknowledged it with a grin.
I only know one player that is obsessed with this GOAT debate
Good video Bu TV. Keep up your good and clean work!!!
Watching these guys together brings tears to my eyes. Legends -- all of them. Respect for each other brings respect from the fans, too.
Idol Larry Bird my goat
The David Letterman interview is a good one!
Noted! Ty fam!
Larry Legend Bird is the GOAT and was the more competitive player than Jordan plus Bird is the perfect player that could do it ALL
The Bird/Jordan commercialngrew from their reputations of calling theirvshots in games. No other two would do.
How many Mike did with his eyes closed?
If anyone could make those shots, it's these two!
There will never ever be another Magic or Larry. Saw both play many many times in BG . The two best teams of all time by far. Jordan got crushed until those two were old or broken. Not sure Jordan ever won in the BG when Bird was there. Over-rated.

The ones with both Bird and Russell are clssic.

Larry’s funny. And those McDonalds commercials were legendary…
But Sir Charles is hysterical.
Can I play?

These guys were fun to watch. Team players and individuals with character all at the same time.
Thank you so much for doing this! This was very funny/enjoyable... I had never seen this before. Larry Bird is one of those guys ...he doesn't say much but when he does say something ...you pay attention!
Wore those Converse in the 70's. Bought a pair for myself and my son 2 years ago. My son doesn't know the history but he loves them.
What colors?!?
@@BU_TV I wore red because of Julius Erving when he played for the Nets. So I bought red again.
I remember watching bird against magic ! I was and still a laker fan ! Basketball back then to me was much more a pass and go go go ! Today's game is great as well but I like the 80's style the best ! Larry Bird was and still is a top player in the NBA !
No question!
I don’t remember that Capitol one ad with Barkley either.
The Hick from French Lick!

Forever a great
Jerry West vs Larry Bird; Oscar Robinson, versus Magic Johnson
Larry’s trash talking was good cuz he could just get under your skin a little but but his talking wasn’t crossing the line. Not many do that.

Wow thanks. I appreciate the kind words! I try my best to make balance but still have more work! Thank ya soo much!
I remember these commercials. “Nothing But Net”❤😊
Larry Bird beat Michael Jorden 3 out of 4 times
Back then, they were full on PHYSICAL STREET BALL CONTACT. NBA TODAY WOULD BE KILLED AGAINST OLD TEAMS (RENEWED).
😂 i dont disagree
Did you know that Margaret Johnson and Michael Jordan? Took members of the dream team and had an until off to see. Who was the? Better. Team while Larry wired watched in the corner
Magic...put some respect on that
I live in Indiana, I am 50 miles from French Lick! Larry is a god here in Indiana!
You ever drove by his old house?
No I haven’t! French Lick is a very small town! Blink your eyes and you drive right through it! If you watch the David letterman’s interview with bird and Magic and David says you’re from a small town called French Lick and the crowd laughs and Larry says you must be from the town over! Witch is Martinsville Indiana, where there was a strong KKK idiotic mind set!
Dude your review of this is hilarious and 💯accurate.
Also nobody will talk about who won that game
I like hearing peter griffen sing the bird is the word
Excuse the auto correct it's magic
Sorry, but MJ was the FOAT... Funniest of all time.🙂
Ok Rob Parker!😂
More Larry Bird videos!!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
BWHUAHHAHA I will try!
Yes, Please!
I also enjoyed all of the players sitting at the table. We don't see it enough anymore.

Your right man . Larry is gold. A diamond. A natural

Really loved this one BU... I'd not seen all those commercials... Zowie.
The best McD commercial was MJ giving his Superbowl tickets to some idiot fans so he can keep playing Horse with Larry. It is hard to find though.
Its those rare ones that will make ya smile
Wasn't that hard to find...thanks for mentioning it. I had never seen this one before now. 😊 Love Larry Bird!
