A minor correction : Larry is not the only one with 3 consecutive League MVPs - he is in that rarified list with Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain. But those three legends are the ONLY ones in NBA history to achieve that feat as of yet.
Also, not only is Larry IN the 50-40-90 club (2x at that), he is THE founder of the 50-40-90 Club !
Yeah, he's the first to do it after the NBA-ABA merger maybe that's what he was referencing.
Not just the first, the last one to do it as well.
@@hookedonreactions7649 actually he's not the only one to do it twice. He actually had a shot at 5 in a row, but he just barely missed 3. Did, however, have a 50/40/90 avg for those 5
@@alanela6761 sorry for not being clear, he’s the last person to win MVP 3 consecutive years.
@@hookedonreactions7649 Aha, gotcha... he is the only non center to ever do that though
That shot at 11:51… if you look closely, he released that near the baseline. Go stand down there-he’s behind the backboard. Not by a lot, but enough. That means he had to aim for the FRONT of the rim because about a quarter of the back of the rim is obstructed by backboard. He did that at the last second of a game. That’s an INSANE shot. It’s just insane if you take in the degree of difficulty.
The best hand eye coordination of ANYONE in the NBA EVER
Loving your profile picture
Pistol Pete's was better

Nope.

Thx! I made it myself!
LARRY LEGEND IS A UNICORN & THE TRUE GOAT 🐐 ☘️
Baddest white boy on the planet! Next is eminem!
Larry Bird is the real GOAT !
He was a bad mamma jamma!
Larry is top 5 dead or alive. Imagine a man telling you what he is about to do to you and you can't stop him. A savage. Larry could do anything magic did but Larry also scored....
You aint far off here boss! Nice point of view
I was a military brat and moved to Boston in 1981. Bird was a cerebral assassin. He knew where everyone was at all times and was always two moves ahead of everyone else. Watch his passing highlights, he could change the direction and spin of the ball with a flick of his wrist. LeBron is a physical monster, Jordan can fly but no one has ever understood the game like Larry Legend.
Well said!
I’m old enough that this Larry/Magic NBA era was the salvation of the league - I remember the pre-79 NBA , with the games (even the damn finals!) being tape-delayed and only shown after the night’s news. I mean damn… the networks were showing re-runs and old b&w movies because they got better ratings than the NBA !
That 79-92 era pulled the NBA out of the ditch of potential bankruptcy- due in large part to the fire that Larry and Magic brought !
From “almost dead” in 79 to “global phenomenon” by 92. With the Olympic Gold “Dream Team” to cap it off with the best-of-the-best getting to finally play together!
I could not have said that better myself. Very well informed and great points!
Excellent! Going to look up the rest of your Bird reactions!
Awesome, thank you!
Looked pretty athletic to me
Wilt Chamberlin and Bill Russell also won 3 consecutive MVP’s. They are the only 3 that have done it.
Facts, i should have mentioned after the merger
When you sit down and make your top 10 list and really think about it. Think about Larry’s leg and how physical it was now you can’t touch a player. He would dominate today’s league because of his craftiness. You should put him at least at your top four minimal.
When you're making that list, take a look at those trades too. How many great players chose to leave their team. Bird, Johnson and many other greats actually stuck with their teams. Thick or thin. Instead of following the money
@@carolepalmer6329 you mean those other players were ring chasing
I do take all that into consideration! He would definitely dominate this soft league today. Esp as a top tier 3 point sniper!
@@carolepalmer6329 true! NBA free agency didnt start until the mid 70s. Many players had to stick around unless they were traded. But facts of the matter is they had to work with what was given to them. Beasts
When you make your list think about a player today having to be guarded by Dennis Rodman or any other top defender of that era under 1980's rules.
Some things to think about. Has your favorite player ever...
- called his shot in a live game more than one time and made that called shot?
- told people he's going to play left-handed and then score 27 points left-handed, 20 points right handed and hit the game-winning shot from the corner double covered at the buzzer?
- hit a shot over the backboard from behind it in a live game?
- come one steal away from a quadruple double in just three quarters of play?
- make a game-winning play on the last second of the last game of a finals series in at least two separate series?
- play the game that was of such high caliber that (the other team) was celebrating outwardly on numerous different shots that he hit, proven by the players being fined for such?
- break a bone in your face and then come back in, lead and rally your team to a comeback win, in yet another game five final?
- play his entire career and in that footage never find one instance of slacking, hanging back or giving up on a play? I know that one's going to eliminate a couple real quick!
I could go on, there's more. Larry Bird was just different! Few other players, maybe Jordan and couple others played with as much confidence in my opinion. The confidence he had is how all the above things happened.
I like this haha. So many unique Bird moments you have laid out to consider. Bird is no doubt special! Not many in the history can claim they shared one of these moments let alone the bag
1. Modern players probably wouldn't do it anyway, but also they wouldn't be allowed to come back into that game, since Bird was concussed. So it's not fair to say that no other player has done that since--it's now against league policy.
2. What game-winning plays did Bird make "on the last second of the last game of a finals series"? None of the Celtics' championships were won on a last-second play, and Bird only made 3 last-minute plays to win playoff games in his career--the 1987 steal, the 1985 steal agt. Philadelphia and the pass to Dennis Johnson in the 1985 Finals, which wasn't in the last game. What stat are you trying to recall here?
The rest of these are correct.

I saw the Celtics in Indianapolis during the heydays. Here’s what I can note about being there. With MJ, you were always aware of him when he was on the floor. Your eyes always went to him. Bird? Bird was quiet. He never looked like he was doing anything. You’ve seen the mixtape -the man was amazing. But it never looked like that from the seats (at least when I watched it). Bird was like machine oil. He worked his way throughout the entire engine… transparently… easily. I think he ended up with something like 28/7/5 or so. I don’t recall. It was a ho-hum night for him. What amazed me was his effortless exceptionalism. He excelled without looking like he was trying. MJ was visibly great. Bird was quietly effective: like as assassin.
Magic & Larry, resurrected the game of basketball......My dad loved basketball, but stopped watching, until the competition between Johnson & Bird was highlighted......What my Dad used to say, about Larry's game, is that it reminded him of someone, who was not only playing basketball, but also, volleyball, dodgeball, hockey, baseball, track & Field, soccer, & strategic chess, all at the same time, and was what made him so great 😊He certainly was one of the most unique and gifted players, I have ever watched!
At the 10:10 minute mark, look at what he did. Danny threw him a deep pass. His back was to his basket and he jumped in the air, caught the ball, twisted his body 180 degrees, threw the ball All Before his feet touched the floor and got nothing but net. That is one of the most amazing shots I’ve ever see. Oh, and it was a buzzer beater too! Amazing, simply amazing.
Larry is and always will be the Goat. All I have to say is Jordan was 0 for 6 vs bird in the playoffs. That says it all. Jordan said it himself, Bird was a problem. My top 5 is Larry Legend, Michael Jordan, Bill Russell, Hakeem Olajuwon, Kobe Bryant.
Not a bad top 5 there fam! No argument from me!
This was the best analysis I've heard in years on TH-cam
Oh wow! Thank you much family! Thanks for stopping in!
@@BU_TV I agree. You know your stuff! 👍🏼
Dang bro….you missed most of what everybody was saying in the video
Comes with territory sometimes😂
I was at angry when I sent on a job to build and open a new manufacturing facility just outside of Boston, it was a 4 year job. I bought season tickets to the Celtics, so I saw a good deal of his rookie year at the Garden and the next three. But got to show some respect to the late and great DJ (Dennis Johnson) and Robert Parrish. I really enjoyed your knowledge and reaction to this video.
Looks like that job deployment had some great perks! Thats dope you got season tickets! Appreciate the feedback!
@@BU_TV Yeah, it turned out Boston wasn't that bad after all. But seeing the Celtics and the Lakers go after each other was much more fun in person. Thanks, my guy.
Larry Bird's averages included several years with a back that sometimes prevented him from even walking without pain. Also, defenses during Larry's time were allowed to do much more to prevent points from getting scored, including very physical play.
All true!
I like how you pointed out the fact that he not only had his warm-up jacket on - he had his _damn_ _sleeves_ rolled up. Any of u guys tried shooting threes with rolled up sleeves? Of not, try it out
Thank u for the great vid and knowledge!
Isnt that the most boss shit ever😂 Walking into the contest with warmup jacket on, sleeves up, just brushed his teeth and made his bed😂 appreciate ya fam
Yes. It was DOUBLE Achilles surgery. Both ankles
I couldnt even imagine
@@BU_TV I had that same surgery on both ankles in 1974…was not fun & I can’t imagine playing BB afterwards! 🤯
It took me over a year to be able to ride a horse again (original cause of my injuries).
@@lynnhoffman247 that’s crazy. I’ve actually never met anybody in person that has ever had even one achilles surgery.
When you got back to horse riding, was it harder?
@@BU_TV No, it wasn’t harder but I wasn’t as wild with the jumping after I went back 😂
May as well haveem both done at once
He wasn't just in the 50/40/90 club. He was the first to do it
Grandfather!
You're a student of the game. I love it!
I try to be! So much to still learn no matter how much I watch over the last 30 years!
Honestly I think if basketball required some text book reading then Larry bird should have several chapters in that book. Every trick that larry had was at a level so high that it made even Jordan sweat cause he knew that one man alone no matter how good he is can not beat a team that knows how to work perfectly together. Every thing Bird brought to the field changed how the game could be played. Even his trash talking should be in that book as a warning on how to focus your mind and keep your emotions in check or else those who trash talk you will win in the end. It still shocks me that none of the teams are doing that already. A team that could match bird would be impossible to beat but alas none I have seen thus far is even close to what the celtics in their prime could do when motivated to do so.
Larry Bird the great author! Will we ever see a more prominent Celtic?!? I doubt it!
@@BU_TV The only way we will ever see another player as good as larry bird in the celtics is when we can clone larry bird complete with his knowledge of basketball. That may be the greatest day in basketball history when we can put to rest who is the best.
Fun fact that is guaranteed to blow your mind: Bird led the league in defensive win shares 4 times. Only player to lead more seasons is Hakeem
Bird did have a few years there where he was a better defender
I was alive. Preteen. But still knew he was unreal. Was 14 at retirement. Heard my whole childhood in Milwaukee about him.
Great reaction!. Please react to Larry Bird Greatest Assists/Passer Re-Edit version. Subbed!!!
I will check it out🎉 ty for the recommendation!
What people don’t talk about is HOW Larry hurt his back. Larry was breaking concrete to do his mothers driveway. The man had such a work ethic that rather than pay someone (he was making millions) to do his moms driveway, he was doing it himself and it killed the latter half of his career. With that being said Larry Joe Bird is still top 5 all time IMO.
The adversity Bird went through with his body before he played his first game is incredible. I got Bird #3 all time
Its always good to see the younger generation doung the homework ... Us old farts who were lucky enough to witness this era of basketball sit back and laugh at this modern day cupcake ass NBA... Its hard for me to type all the great games and put them in context .. I will tell you this this era of the NBA brought it EVERYNIGHT ... There were no excuses .. They hustled their ass and played with heart and wanted to win .. So in closing , in my humble opinion, The Fucking Legend is Top 3 and the best SF to EVER step on the court .. Appreciate you young fella
I have Bird top 3 and the greatest SF ever as well. Im with ya
Amen BU... intro was spot on
You have to watch "Larry Bird greatest passers of all-time (with re-edit").. people might snicker at the title until they watch it
I'm confused how people can think Larry wouldn't survive in today's league, like we already have Luka and Jokic being some of the best players right now. They're not athletic either. But Larry 'Legend' wouldn't survive? gtfo lmao
🪄32 Should be next up 👌
It blows my mind. I will do a reaction to the magic johnson ultimate mixtape. I do have a video covering magics passing ability you can check out here: th-cam.com/video/oJgJFtaSdiY/w-d-xo.html
Also.....Is that my boy Guts on your profile picture?
Nope its Thor...never mind LOL
Prime Larry would absolutely destroy todays weak ass league. No doubt. He banged low, grabbed boards with the best of them, one of the best passers the game has ever seen and could light up the score board if he had to. Healthy Bird was the best player of his era.
@@Jericho363 the name of the video you’re talking about is “Larry Bird, Greatest Passer of All Time (Re-edit w/ New Footage)”
Luka makes Bird look like a sprinter.
The thing about the great white players is that they have to be smart, confident, consistent, with a well rounded skill set. Otherwise they wouldn't succeed and they wouldn't be great players. We would never hear of them. That makes them particularly dangerous on the court and Larry Legend was the best example of that.
Haha thats a good point! Havent seen many super athletic white players. I would have to think about it. I can only think of Birdman but he was not a great player and his athleticism wasnt even off the charts.
Another point: nobody is making these types of passes in the NBA today. Just 4 guys at the 3 point line passing back and forth.
😭😂😂😂😂
Excellent commentary, really well informed.
Thank you fam! Appreciate ya stoppin in!
8:28 I've said this before but the reaction of the guy guarding Bird reminds me of a lost kid in the mall looking for his mother. He has no idea where to find the ball.
Lmfaaao

Love these bird videos here in australia
There's an incredible documentary about Larry Legend and Magic. It's a must watch if you haven't seen it. I think HBO did it.
I will check it out! I have HBO MAX my fav streaming service! Thnx!
@@BU_TV it's actually on TH-cam. th-cam.com/video/axbIoHqFaa8/w-d-xo.html
My top 3 are Larry, Wilt, and MJ. Larry is the most complete player ever.
😊
Not a bad list
I was with you right up until you said you'd probably put him somewhere between 6 and 8 on your list of all-time greats. 6 and 8 my a** is all I got to say about that. I'll let someone else list the reasons that's way off...and I'm guessing there are some Bird fans who will.
That said, apart from that inexplicable error in judgment, I really enjoy your reactions because you are so knowledgable, and able yourself to see so much and appreciate it. I do wish, along with some others, that you would, although continuing to make all your great commentary, pause, so you (and we) can also hear the video commentary-- I'd like to hear your reaction to what the people are saying , as well as your reactions to the action on the screen. These are some of the greatest players in the history of the game, so it would be fun to see/hear your reactions to what they're saying...though I'm thinkng maybe the reason you do it as you do is because you've seen these Bird vids before-- maybe more than once-- so already know what's being said, and wouldn't have a spontaneous reaction.
Sorry you lost your mind-- as you obviously did when you were even considering placing Bird so low on your list-- I wish you a full and speedy recovery!
The beautiful thing of these TH-cam videos staying forever is you can see the process of how people evolve and reevaluate. You can see how peoples content improve as well. As you continue to watch Larry bird videos from me, IF you do, you will see how I reassess his ranking as I learn more of the details. Though, regardless, I think he should be firmly placed in top 10 at a minimum.
Thanks for the support and comment!
Just watched your channel, I like your analysis. Love watching Bird, who doesn't? Seen a clip of Bird some where, can't remember exactly where. He said that the greatest forward in the NBA was Bernard King. I agree. I'm going to find some BK highlights. Thank you
Yeah Larry is a top 5 for me......
Deserved!
Larry is my best of all time! He could do it all. He impacted every game in a major way. Shooting. Rebounds. Steal. Rebounds and steals started so many of his best passes. I hated him back then. He killed my Sixers all the time. He played his last 2 years with back problems. and surgery on both Achilles.
Super unathletic is a bit extreme. As a legit 6’10 he was actually pretty athletic. Coming out of college he had a 28 inch vert which is NBA average, incredibly quick hands. Of course he is not a lebron, Dr J or Wilkins type athlete but in my opinion a lot of this stigma comes from him playing SF. He would have been considered a athletic PF with his mobility at that size but since he played SF he’s getting compared to some of the most freak athletes ever
Is that what I said! slap me please! disrespectful!
My take has always been that Larry isn't the best shooter of all time. He isn't the best defender all time. Not the best passer of all time. Not the best rebounder of all time. But in totality, he is absolutely the best basketball player of all time
I seen some people mention lebron the same exact way
20+ rebound games: Bird 10-Lbron 0.
Faaaaaacts lmao
Talking over the video. Missed so much of what was being said. But good knowledge of the game!
Larry Bird aka Larry Legend was born with the cheat code.
Larry and Magic saved the NBA.
Lmao walking cheat code
Larry is DEF the best "white boy" in basketball, but he's also better than almost all black players..
All true
the Twitter bird is named larry the Bird after this guy
Everyone knew Bird was great when he was in college. What the Celtics did was draft Bird as a junior even though he was going to stick in college as a senior! So the Celtics had to wait a year, but they kind of cheated. This is what caused the whole "declare eligibility" system (and lottery).
Aaaaah I see i didnt know this prompted that
3rd player to win 3 consecutive mvps.
Charles Barkley once said of Bird that, "God made him slow and awkward just to even things up for the rest of us". James Worthy said he'd rather guard Jordan than Bird because "Jordan only made you look slow but Bird made you look stupid". Pat Riley answered that he'd take Jordan if he needed a basket to win a game but, if he needed a basket to save his life, he'd go with Bird
CORRECTION...Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell (as well as Larry Bird) are the only THREE players to win 3 consecutive MVP's.
You are not wrong. I meant to say since the merger! ZOINKS
Love ur vids keep em coming #LB33 ❤🐦, WE love bird ,but we like other players too ,but it's bird 🐦, he could be green and still be bbbbbad asf 💯☠, 3 3pt contest too, if ya notice he got them awards in 3's
Michael Jordan has Bird in his top five.
Mike love to compete against Larry
Even as a shell of himself he was able to beat Jordan and I mean no disrespect to Jordan. But Bird was 6-0 in the playoffs and 20 something to 11 in the regular season.
Check out his rookie season highlights, he took a team that was 2nd worst in the league to the playoffs his rookie year and he did it without any of the hall of famers associated with him. The year he only played 6 games? Those hall of famers didn’t make the playoffs. People always say that he had the better team but don’t realize that he made them better.
I’ve got Bird over Jordan but there’s no question about Jordan’s talent. My main issue is that Bird won three straight 3 point contests. Jordan entered it one time and has the record for the worst score ever in the competition. I’m not saying that Jordan wasn’t clutch, far from it. But 3 points are better than 2, so while dunks are fun to watch, they don’t count any more than a layup.
Anyone who can say Bird did not make his team better and accelerate his teammates are smoking shrooms

Olajuwon C

If Larry Bird had stayed at Indiana University he would have been on the NCAA team to go undefeated and win the NCAA Championship. If, he would have beat MSU in the 1979 NCAA finals, then I.S.U. would have replaced I.U. as the last undefeated NCAA Champion. Just trivial pursuit info.
As you said, double achilles surgery...
Ouch!
ONLY player in history to average atleast 24, 10 and 6.. also lead the league in defensive winshares 4 seasons (came in 2nd twice) and was selected to three all defensive teams.. first guy to shoot 50/40/90 and did it twice. Can post high or low, can create for himself and others, can face up, can shoot of the dribble, can catch and shoot, moves around screens like a guard, can pass, can shoot 3s, hustled all the time..

Double Achilles and a broken back.
Who does that....Bird does that!
he the only white guy in my all time top 20 (numer 2).. Maybe John Stockton makes my top 20? Mayb Luka or Yokic make it someday. Mayb Dirk is top 20?
Dirks chip was impressive
6'10 230
I hear Magic better than Bird all the time but what did Magic do better than Bird? Better shooter? No! Better long range? No! Better from the free throw line? No! Better rebounder? No! That brings us to passing defense and leader ship and honestly you’re just splitting hairs. Bird beat Magic out for College player of the year. Bird beat Magic out for rookie of the year. Bird won 3 MVP’s before Magic won his first. Absolutely love Magic but Bird Was just better
You have a strong case here. No argument from me. As I continue to learn even more and more about these past players, and get a deeper understanding from what I even had before I’m going to reevaluate my top 10 list
@@BU_TV two players you might want to research a little are Elgin Baylor and Pistol Pete. Two players that not only we’re decades ahead of there time but there life stories are just unreal. I have so much respect for Baylor and what he achieved and how he did it. So many greats that I would have liked to seen play but very grateful to see my three favorites play. Bird, Kareem and MJ. Man Kareem was something to watch when he would take over a game. I’ll tell you fact nobody had anything on Kareem
He had double Achilles surgery.
Cut lbron James off at 13 seasons and compare them
BARS!!
He beat the best black players as well, ask Jordan

Larry is the best white athlete of all time
LMAO ... Larry not in the top 5 all time ... insane! You don't judge individuals by how many team championships, you look at their individual body of work. Magic was phenomenal but frankly he's ranked as high as he often is based on 5 rings. Larry's career numbers are better than Steph Curry yet many try to put Steph above him. Top five ... MJ, Bill Russell, Wilt, Larry, Magic, bench of Lebron, Steph, Pistol Pete, Kareem, Shack ... yeah Kobe doesn't make my top 10 I disqualify him because of what he did and his legal team did to the young woman in Colorado. I realize many say who cares but seriously if that had been your mother, sister, daughter, or some other woman you cared about with a hand print around her neck would you dismiss it? No, I don't know her but I have known other sexual assault victims so I can't ignore it. Read the transcripts, and about how the legal team broke the rape shield laws with leaks to the press. Kobe didn't tell them to stop he was fighting for his life and freedom but that doesn' t make it okay to condone what was done.
I read everything including transcripts, so you don’t have to tell me shit. Fact of the matter is there was a trial and this woman had semen from multiple mfs in her panties😂😫. But this is basketball we are talking basketball. So if you are going to rate somebody high or low, based on something that doesn’t have to do with basketball then your judgment is clouded. Do you.
This is an old video anyway… Larry is number three all time for me, so go drink a beer and appease yourself
As great as larry is there was one other white player that was extremely close to Larry Bird. People either forget or don't know that Pistol Pete Maravich was a very bad man. Now i think Larry was better but not by much.
Pistol Pete was a beast man. I feel like Pete was ahead of his time in some ways
