    If you want to see the jewel in Larry's GOAT crown then your next should be The Bird's Greatest Assists video. James Worthy of the LA Lakers said "I'd much rather guard Michael Jordan than Larry Bird. Jordan made you look slow, but Bird made you look stupid."

    Larry would hesitate with a shot, while his opponent thinking they were going to block it would go sailing by, and sometimes, Larry would just call out 'Stupid' as they went by.
    Also, James Worthy, a basketball great once said,
    "Michael Jordon will make you look slow. Larry Bird will make you look stupid."

    People talk like Larry Bird wasn't a good defender, but 3 times he was on the All-Defensive team. He packed the stat sheet with 10 rebounds and over 6 assists per game averages over his entire career. Three consecutive MVP awards in the mid-80's. One of three or four players that could be considered the best ever.

      @@meminustherandomgooglenumbers You made me curious if this was accurate, so I googled a list, and you were pretty close. Number 50 on the list was Billy Cunningham at 10.15, so Bird just missed the top 50. I recognized all but a few names on the list, and a few players (like Kevin Love) toggled between PF and C, but the true forwards included Bob Pettit, Jerry Lucas, Charles Barkley, Dennis Rodman, Happy Hairston, Elgin Baylor, Bill Bridges, Dave DeBusschere, Tim Duncan, Happy Hairston, and Billy Cunningham. A couple of those guys, like Duncan, played a bit at center during part of their career.

      And Bird LED the league in Defensive Win Shares 4 seasons.
      Second place twice. In the top ten his first 7 seasons.
      Defensive Win Shares computes the impact to the opponent's offense when that specific player is on the court.
      Bird was a force to be reckoned with.

    After you check out so many videos with his talent and skill, you should check out Five Times Larry Bird Was Injured, But Wouldn't Quit. These guys that talk about him being slow and not athletic get their foot in their mouth when you see how Larry played with all his injuries beginning before he even signed with The Celtics, and nobody else was calling plays. He's the absolute GOAT!!

    For those that think Larry Bird was not as good as he really was and never had the chance to see him play this comment is for you. Remember in this comment I am just highlighting Larry's NBA accomplishments.
    Little know thing about Larry to those that never saw him play , he could effect the outcome of a game and never take a shot thats how devastating his passing skills were. Here is one thing that most fans (people) either don't know or try to ignore, prior to Larry joining the NBA there was no such thing as a three point line, that came in when Bird was starting his first year of his NBA career. Just think about it, what would todays game be without the three point line or if the line was one foot farther out like it was when it was first introduced. Food for thought.
    At that time it was not about the individuals stats it was about the win. But if you need some stats here you go:
    Here are some of Larry Bird's notable career achievements and statistics:
    Three-time NBA champion (1981, 1984, 1986); Two-time NBA Finals MVP (1984, 1986); Three-time NBA MVP (1984-86); 12-time NBA All-Star (1980-88, 1990-92); Nine-time All-NBA First Team (1980-88);
    All-NBA Second Team (1990); Three-time All-NBA Defensive Second Team (1982-84); NBA Rookie of the Year (1980); NBA All-Rookie Team (1980); Three-time NBA Three-Point Contest champion (1986-88);
    Career-high in points: 60 (March 12, 1985) -- tied for franchise record with Jayson Tatum; Named NBA Coach of the Year (1998); and Named NBA Executive of the Year (2012).
    Larry Bird, was the first player to accomplish the 50-40-90 achievement, and one of two players to achieve the feat in multiple seasons.
    Career averages:
    24.3 points per game
    10.0 rebounds per game
    6.3 assists per game
    88.6% free throw percentage
    49.6% field goal percentage
    37.6% 3-point percentage
    Now we can't forget that Bird famously played with two injured ankles and a notoriously cranky back that forced him to lay down on the floor during practice breaks. After season-ending foot surgery just six games into the 1988-89 season
    James Worthy, who played against both Michael Jordan and Larry Bird, said, I'd much rather play. against Michael Jordan than Larry Bird. Jordan made you look slow, but Bird made you look stupid.

    Here is a heart touching story of Larry & Wilkins in a Shoot Out Game; when Ya get a chance check this out. "Why You Never Poke Larry Bird-A Trash Talk STORY Told by NBA Legends!" by Nick Smith NBA. It's not a whole lot of trash talking BUT it's about One game when Larry & Wilkins had a 4th Quarter shoot out. What makes it for Me is that Larry did this while He was Hurting & You can See it in His face that's He's Not feeling good. In fact He ended later having to have Surgery on both of His Feet. But it's really good hearing the Team He played against telling a lot of this story. Anyway Thanks for doing this one & Great Reaction too.

    What allot of people Don't know is that Right before he was going to sign up for the Boston Celtics. He messed up his shooting hand playing baseball ⚾ and needed major surgery to fix his hand. He used to shoot 60% from the field before his hand surgery. And even admitted that his shooting stroke wasn't the same after his surgery. He would practice shooting with his eyes 👀 shut and remembering the muscle memory from certain position's on the court. When he gets Hot 🔥 Watch out. One of a Kind nobody else even comes close to Larry Joe Bird 🕊️...!!!

  • @guittadabe5214
    @guittadabe5214 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Too many players preferred guarding Jordan than guarding Larry. Several reasons: his basketball IQ was greater than Jordan, and his passing to the open man was better than Jordan (in case you double or triple team him - it helps to be 6'10"!), and even without the ball he's always moving to have an advantage, so as a defender you can never relax and have to always keep thinking about what Larry is up to! Even though he had crippling pain in his back his last 4 years, he still was one of only 2 players with 3 MVP's in a row, and still regarded as one of the top 5 players all time. MJ is still the all time GOAT, but he never beat Larry Bird in the playoff during Larry's peak days (before injury).
