Looking BACKWARD, I'd take Kareem just on longevity and having an unblockable shot. Better defender than he gets credit for, too. ...but if you told me I had one guy to start a franchise around, there's no question in my mind it'd be Larry. I'll take his 10 or so good years and all his intangibles when building a franchise above Kareem, above Magic, above Wilt, and CERTAINLY above LeFlop.

Bird. Best nba player EVER

Jokic's game has proved Larry Legend's game would totally translate to today...

But he did come back to lose to the lakers the following year only to dig deep and win it again after that series lose. So Larry Legend was GREAT but so was Magic and Kareem and Cooper. The Lakers really were GREAT. They respected each other, the Lakers and Boston. Nothing like the 80's - NOTHING! I miss that era.

Contradict? Greatest of ALL time, cannot be determined until the end of time. Because that is how "time" works.

I'm a fan of Larry Bird, but not just him, his friend Kevin McHale and Johnson ,Robert parish, Luke long,they all shared with Bird the strength to win.

man bird a stone cold killer

We play basketball outside in 120° weather in Texas

Bird was the best from the time he entered the league. Just not recognized by mvp vote yet. The Celtics were his team from day one and everyone knew it. McHale was as big a factor in the 81 season as Parish

Bird was the professor during that time!

Well, being older and enjoying these 2nd 3rd and 4th looks, what could you say except Bird new he could dominate as long as he was healthy. That's just the way it was. I enjoyed watching one more time. Thanks

To see two great teams on the same court when I was growing up is a magical memory. The only thing I "hate" about it is that I got to be "too demanding" (of course I am being sarcastic). Seriously though I am so grateful to have lived to see this live.

The true GOAT!

I was a magic cream Kurt rambis you know those guys I was a fan of theirs I couldn't stand Larry Bird because I don't know how many times we get into the finals with them and he just spank our ass but now since you know you no longer plays and personally these players couldn't hang with these guys but I digress Larry Bird is one of the best players that's ever played the game yeah you had your Michael Jordan's that can fly through the air and slam and jam and dunk but when it comes to Larry Bird he was an all-around player he can pass he can shoot and for white boy that couldn't jump sure as hell look like he put a couple of dunks down on a few boys that were supposed to be badasses back in those days so yeah Larry Bird was a badass they'll never be another one like him

I always thought refs deferred to MJ who often took 3 steps to the basket. Bird took 4 or 5 and no whistle. It was so blatant, I had to wonder if they'd suspended the traveling rule for the game. Still love Bird.

Bird is the all-time goat he didn't switch teams like LeBron James he could do it by himself LeBron had to run around the league trying to find another good player so he can win championship games so he's not in a conversation asthe goat bird and magic didn't run around trying to find another good team so they could win a championship they did it their selves and we all know LeBron could not do that he is a joke lol

At 1:25 on this video, Larry receives a pass, and takes, by my count at least 3 steps without dribbling the ball, before scoring on a lay-up. How can that have happened???

Bird == GOAT.

The Celtics would have beaten the Lakers in 87 had Len Bias not died, the Celtics were one player short against the Lakers that year, that player would have been Bias. The Celtics were battling a lot of nagging injuries going into that finals series against the Lakers and the Lakers still needed six games to beat them, if the Celtics have Bias it's most likely the exact opposite, with the Celtics winning that series in six games ..

please mute ...

Totally bias take. The Celtics would do anything to win, including turning the heater on in the Lakers locker room, when it was unbearable. That was the last time the Lakers and Magic would lose to the Celtics. If there was a year, the Lakers should have won, but didn't, it was that year.

Lousy narration, this video is repetitious and drags.

Any word from lbj fans who kept on claiming lbj is the best in #3 position Common men

Kareem destroyed Larry Bird and the Celtics too many times. Magic Johnson did the same.

*BOSTON GARDEN* NEVER HAD AIR-CONDITIONING until MUCH LATER

There go the typical Laker fans, making their big excuses for losing!!! Especially when they lose to the Celtics!!! Look,Laker fans, there's a REASON,NOT AN EXCUSE,that the Celtics lead your "Golden" team 9-3 in championships,and have beaten the Lakers SOUNDLY in SO MANY regular season games.....it was because 75 percent of the times they played each other,the Celtics were the BETTER team!!!!Get a grip on THAT!!
