Bird had an unbelievable night during that game. It was Bird's way of paying back Erving after "Dr. J operated on Larry Bird in game 7 of the 1982 Eastern Conference Finals. And then, the 1983 Philadelphia 76ers dominating the league the following year. Bird was simply letting Dr. J know at that time it was his time to shine. It was just gamesmanship that got a bit out of control between the two competitors. It was a great moment in sports. Basketball shows talked about that fight all year long.

Yeah, he was older, but he still played 3 more seasons after that and was a 20+ a game scorer at the time....he was just having a shitty game and Bird was lighting him up. Hell, 34 year old Dr. J was likely more athletic than 29 year old Bird at the time!

My favorite NBA fight was a little known fight between Manute Bol and Muggsy Bogues. Manute was trash talking Muggsy even though they were on the same team. Muggsy got mad and punched Manute in the knee cap, and the fight was on. Muggsy punching the hell out of Manutes knee caps, and Manute swinging at air because he couldn’t reach down low enough to hit Muggsy. Well out of the blue Spud Webb jumps into the melee and wraps his arms around one of Manutes legs and holds him while Muggsy punches Manutes knee cap. Well they finally broke it up. Manute was treated for kneecap contusions, and Muggsy and Spud were seen low fiving as they were escorted off the court. Muggsy and Manute were fined $7000 a piece, and Spud was fined $5000. When Spud was asked why he held Manutes leg while Muggsy punched his knee cap Spud just shrugged his shoulders and said “ us lil fellers knees too stay together, it’s kinda like those lil fellers in the wizard of oz fighting that ole witch. I’m ain’t saying Manute is a witch, but he was fightin one of my munchkin bros”. Well, Spud was fined another $1000 for calling an NBA lil feller a munchkin. We all know it is not politically correct to call an NBA lil feller a munchkin.

Good story.

Was never really into basketball, but my cousin was. Cous played a season in college (Amarillo), and he kind of idolized Larry. So, anyhow, the past couple of weeks I've been binge watching Bird videos. He had a lot of character, and WHAT a character!

The beginning of the end for Dr J..

It definitely looks like Barkley is holding Bird so he can get hit

His hands slid up😂

Dr.J was past his prime by this time, no?

I saw the fight live on TV. You have to realized that Doc was damn near his mid 30s, and Bird was in his mid 20s, when this took place. When you're in your mid 30s, bad games are going to come out of nowhere, like the shanks on the back nine after having a great front nine. Anyway, I was SHOCKED to see Julius start throwing hands. Just wasn't his style. But in the end, with other Celtic, Sixers match ups, both showed their classiness and respect when playing against each other.

Favorite fight, Celtics Vs. Pistons. Parrish decking Limber.

J grabbed him from the waist pulling Larry into him then Larry was pushing him away. J grabbed his neck as is he’s trying to control Larry. It’s was practiced, done on purpose. They mob attacked Larry Bird. That J character went after Larry Bird then they grabbed him from behind very quickly so that he couldn’t fight back.

Bird was in his mid 20s, Doc was in his mid 30s, and Barkley was a rookie, (who had 27 points in that game). So, Barkley did some roasting himself. And why bring up Moses, when he's a center. You Celtic fans NEVER tell the entire story. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where did the chant "beat LA," come from? It started with the BOSTON CELTIC FANS CHANTING THAT TO THE 76ERS AFTER YOU GUYS CHOKED A GAME 7, AT HOME.

Here are the accumulated stats in 80,81,82,83,84 in season Sixers vs Celtics games(30 games total). Dr J had 746 p on 28 games , 26,6 ppg on 37.9 min pg and 20,9 fg attempts pg. Bird had 685 p on 30 games , 22,8 ppg on 40.4 min pg and 20,9 fg attempts pg. Dr J had 9 x 30+ ppg as 1X45 p game, 2X37 p games, 3X36 p games, 1x35 p game less points scored 18.. Bird Had 6 X30+ ppg as 1X36 p game , less scoring 1x10 p game, 1x11 p game ,2x12 pg , 2x13 pg and 1X15 p game. in 1980 Dr J averaged 33,6 ppg vs Celtics and in 1981 29,1 ppg in 1982 25,6 ppg , in 83 22,4 ppg and in 84 23,1 ppg. Bird averaged the most 23,6 ppg in 1984 on 42,5 min pg and 24,5 fg attempts. Dr J min and fg attemts were gradually dropping in the presense of Toney and Moses while Bird's min and Fg attempts were rising.. Note that 84 stands for 83-84 season and similarly for the rest.. This is ultimate proof that Bird never dominated face to face Dr J untill Dr J turned 34/35 and that season he had that miserable game with 6 points and all this talk is echo chamber nonsense and urban fairy tales!

i was at that game and if i remember correctly, they were short a ref. made for a "chippy" game.

Real Facts.

So bird walks up to Dr. J and the doc hugs him in respect and bird took a swing and then got beat down by the 76ers😂

Larry Bird was being held back by two players- while being held back...clearly, Dr. J. threw chickenshit punches. Cowardly... and looked like a plan, to me.

It wasn't a tight game, Celtics where up by 20. And Larry told Dr. J he needed to retire. And it was ON!

Bird has stated countless times that he never trash talked dr j

3 on 1 .. Sixers the real bad boys

Obviously, they are both lying their asses off. Larry Bird, someone who never shuts up and always trash talks, somehow didn't say anything provoking at all. Julius Erving's hand slipping accidentally from Bird's chest **wink wink** to his neck. yeah right, lol. i believe Barkley though, he is not a good liar, it'd be easy to catch that. it's not characteristically plausible.

Larry is the GOAT.... Hell we all know that.

Please show me a game in which Bird treated ANYONE he played against with respect.

Love Dr. J but he lying on that one. The offensive foul was called on HIM, not Bird

the stupidest myth of Nba by far , that is created and reproduced in the modern day social media comment section is that Larry Bird outplayed Julius Erving or had a greater impact on the Game in general..the whole thing doesnot consider anything that was going on real time but it is solely based in the period after Dr J became too old to lead the league as its brightest star and Larry Bird had his moment along Magic Johnson as Nba MARQUEE names till the new sherriff came in town ,namely MJ..anyone can see that in real time Dr J was the biggest star and a better scorer(25 ppg on .53 fg for 80,81,82),blocker,steals and not far behind in assists(4+ vs 5+ of Larry) on a better fg at least till 83 when Moses came along and he had to give up some offense AGAIN bringing his fg attempts to 16.5 per game..still he averaged 21.5 ppg..meanwhile Larry Bird was not a 19 year old rookie ,he came in the league in 1980 at 23 years old and the first time he exceeded Doc stat wise was 1983 but got swept by the Bucks AND accorign to modern NBA narrative and reasoning..SWEPT BY SIDNEY MONCRIEF..meanwhile Doc produced a highlight reel night in night out got in the conference finals 6 times out of 7 and 4 time in the finals and lost twice to a super loaded Lakers team with 4 allstars including 2 all time greats(Kareem 25 ppg,Magic 19 ppg,Wilkes 21 ppg,Nixon17 ppg) and a 3 time scoring champion (Bob Mcadoo), as the FIFTH option ,4 to 2 delivering some great performances and some of the best Dunks,Lay ups in the history of the game..Just see the 1983 all star mvp stats and 1984 all star stats he had when he lost the mvp to Thomas(21 pnts,15 asists) with 34 points, 8reb, 5 asts, 2 stls and 2 blocks on .64 shooting..He also lost to Blazers in 1977 just because of mega idiot coach Gene Shue asking him to tone it down offensively to 17 fga per game from 23 he had in ABA and toxic, wanna be first options, bricking really bad BELOW .4 IN 2pnts FIELD GOAL SHOTS, McGinnis and Free in 1977 finals and 78 conference finals again, getting robbed a ring and finals mvp title,instant NBA domination, from his own team, despite averaging 30 ppg on .54 shooting in those finals!The Sixers never saw any daylight ever again since Dr J left that organisation, that also burned another all time great career CB with mediocre team and unable to understand and seize the moment managment and coaching stuff!
