@abyss6540 there is always a reason to be a nerd especially if it gives me a perfectly good excuse to be a smart-ass and a nerd at the same time.....DUH
@@toddhanley6982- you don’t see that in the WNBA these days. At least not with white heterosexual players. Not that anybody actually watches the WNBA 😂
I'll admit I was one of those people that dismissed Larry Bird in the 80s (I was very young and didn't see much basketball on our 3 channels of TV we had), but as time has gone on and I've seen more of his games, the dude was an absolute legend.
Bird has a perfect shot and he shoots elbow out. Also, he has a fairly qu8kc shot it always seemed to me. Ppl say his jumper was slow and he was slow, but bird be moving on that court. Arguably the greatest shooter ever, and one of the best players and playmakers of all time. He and Magic had it on lockdown, with no keys available.
Idk about elbow out. His elbow was almost always in line with his body. Pretty much ideal shooting form and how most coaches teach nowadays. Also, Larry was definitely a legend and paved the way for some so many great shooters but the greatest shooter the game has ever seen is 100% Steph Curry.
@@krimezone I dont do top 10s i do TIERS. The GOAT Tier are the players that legitimately have an argument for the GOAT and there are 3 Players as of now: Kobe, Jordan, Steph The best of the next tier is #4 Larry Bird who is noticably behind the GOATS but better than everyone else. Dudes like Oscar Robinson, Chris Paul, Magic Johnson, David Robinson, Hakim, Jokic, Julius Irving, Prime Wade etc are on this tier. Notable Overrated dudes who are in a lower tier than these: Kareem, LeBron, Shaq 3 of the most overrated players of all time
Players like Larry Bird and Magic Johnson come every other generation. Not taking anything away from M. J. or Kobe they were great in their own way, legends. But Bird and Johnson were players that just carried themselves differently. Meant just a little more to the game and most importantly the fans. Hard to explain.
Wish I coulda seen him play in his time. I'm too young. I'm MJ GOAT time AND a Bulls fan so even better, but watching all the greats in their time would be amazing
I watched this game live, and when Larry Bird came back out to the court, you could literally hear the crowd's explosive reaction through the TV. The Celtics vs The Pacers were some of the best first round matchups of All-time!
I was watching it to. I think I may have even cried as a kid when he got the floor. . It was an amazing game to watch. That and the Portland game were he tied the game at the buzzer with a off balance one handed 3
Damn he took that hard fall like a champ and needed to coax himself down to not lose his cool due to frustration. Recuperated to make an immediate return then dominated upon his arrival. A legend
This is like when Kobe dislocated his thumb mid game and he went to the coach and the coach put it back in to place NBA players are ruthless. RIP Kobe😢
Chuck "The Rifleman" Person was one of those ballers that can talk shit and back it up with his shot. Too bad Chuck decided to talk when he thought Bird was gone for the game, only for Bird (who was even better at backing up his talk) to actually came back. 😂
Larry Bird was the John Wayne of the NBA for 13 seasons. Between this game and stealing the inbound pass from the Pistons and dishing it off to Dennis Johnson for the layup and the win, you get just a rudimentary sense of the insane stuff Larry Legend would treat you to.
One thing for certain and two things for Larry Bird is a goat just like Jordan is so is magic Doctor J, Labron Kobe wilt, Russell George girving, and so many other players there is no competition to me they all were ground breaking players
Larry should be in the goat debate he won mvp back to back to back had 3 ring one of the best 3pt shooters of all time in my opinion the best mid range shooter ever and two finals MVPs and he was clutch as he said a lot of guys can make a shot with the game tied but how many can make it down 1 or 2 and he was the first player to shoot 50-40-90 in a season and he did it twice curry has only done it once
Larry actually said, "let's go quiet that baby."
He did didn’t he
@@MrWarriorPrimeYes
d
“My vision was so blurry I saw two baskets. I aimed at the left one and it went in.” Larry had the coldest lines.
@@requiemforameme1he did not say that😂😂
Reason why Larry bird was called Larry the legend.😮😮😮.
Just Larry Legend no the in it.... but definitely dude was bad

Bro heard that from the locker room and came and killed him
He lied to the trainer and said I'm done for the day, then ran to the court
Exactly, you don't taunt Larry or he will come and destroy you!
Respect to the Pacers player that stayed behind to make sure Bird was ok. Great sportsmanship ✊🏿
Like they would've been allowed back in Indiana if they hadn't

Would never get that good sportsmanship from Celtic fans tho
Thats like some WWE shit when the dude calls him out and then the main character walks out of the tunnel.
Yeah just that here it actually happened and wasn't a scripted pipe dream of some writer 😂
I like to imagine Stone Cold's entrance music playing as Larry run back LOL
NBA is scripted

I remember watching this game. Young folks just don't understand how badass Larry Legend was.
Some people have it, some don't. Larry Bird definitely had it. Thanks for the memories.
Trainer: "Larry, you have a concussion."
Bird: "Decapitate me."
He had a broken orbital bone as well
Larry Legend was one tough dude, as badass as they come
Larry Goat. One of the best players of All time
Larry Legend
Larry was a fkn beast, nuff Respect.
Imagine if he wasn't hurt 😬

Larry is so cold for this 🥶🥶🥶
Bro he’s the nemesis he’s Kobe before Kobe he was the guy who would never ever ever quit
@@KCJbomberFTW chill bruh... bird is great but don't ever compare him to Kobe fwwy
@@alfjones6377exactly, bird is much better than Kobe
Great is understating how good he was. He's very comparable to Kobe. He was Jordan before Jordan was Jordan. He was Kobe before Kobe was Kobe.
@@mike9031 exactly and I hate the Celtics
He is one of my greatest player I seen
There are not enough larry bird edits, please make more
x2
But none with that music
This is Larry Legend living up to his name big time. I remember watching this when it happened and my 19 inch tv shook with applause
I had a friend in a rich family, so I watched this at their house on a 25" TV!!! 😂😂
He got motivated and became stronger. Gotta love him 🔥
Lary legend is him bro lary is the goat
You don’t watch ball I see
@DamianChosenyou could make that argument. Everyone does have their opinions.
Doesn’t make them true.

Larry form is impeccable!!!!!
Larry was like "Who summoned me?" 💀

The playoffs were tape delayed until 11pm the year before they arrived!! They saved the NBA!!

When he came back. It felt like big bro coming back to protect little siblings.
Larry BURRRRRD!🔥🔥
Song name - SLIDE DA TREME MELODIDA V2 (slowed+reverb) de KNXGHT
He was LEGENDARY!
The smoothest shooter ever!!
He is one of the greatest shooters in the NBA history
Larry pulled up from the shadows and was like “The F*ck you say ‘bout me!?” Then casually drop 30+ lol
I speak for everybody here when I say Larry is the GOAT.
Wish I coulda seen him play in his time. I'm too young. I'm MJ GOAT time AND a Bulls fan so even better, but watching all the greats in their time would be amazing
Cant mess with Larry Legend

Larry Goat
I like that name!! ❤
Lifetime Jordan fan but that's the 1 & ONLY BIRD-MAN 🦅
Damn he took that hard fall like a champ and needed to coax himself down to not lose his cool due to frustration.
Recuperated to make an immediate return then dominated upon his arrival.
A legend
My all time favorite player...plus him and Magic brought in the fans....👍🏿👍🏿
Whatever you do, don't poke the bird. 🔥
Larry Legend
Larry legend🔥
“Where’s Larry huh?”
Larry: “you shouldn’t have said that
This is like when Kobe dislocated his thumb mid game and he went to the coach and the coach put it back in to place NBA players are ruthless.
RIP Kobe😢
This shot is poetry in motion
Thats why hes my favorite player no joke😮💨
I remember that moment on a Sunday afternoon 💯💯💯
Lakers fan til the death! Mad respect to Larry true baller.
I really like Larry when I was young, pre internet so later in life I was surprised to find out how prolific trash talker he was. Totally still a fan.
Just like that guy said "If your life is on the line, take Larry Bird"
Larry Literally said I'M BACK BABY
"Ask and ye shall receive." Larry Bird.
Even though I’m a Pacers fan, he’s from Indiana and he’s a legend as his name stands Larry legend
Chuck "The Rifleman" Person was one of those ballers that can talk shit and back it up with his shot.
Too bad Chuck decided to talk when he thought Bird was gone for the game, only for Bird (who was even better at backing up his talk) to actually came back. 😂
This dude averaged 14 points per game in his career. Yeah man, he was a real killer and can really back it up, just like Bird. 😂😂
@@arob7759that's higher than jr Smith tho, and Jr Smith was a great offensive player.
That last shot was personal, this for you and you, *Bucket*
Bone Chilling'....he's definitely in my top Five.....but number 1 in heart's.....
This man is a LEGEND.
Literally the coldest basketball edit ever😮💨😮💨
One of the best
I love when Paul Pierce did this in the '08 Finals too
That running fade-away off the left foot from the free throw line is unstoppable 💯👌🏿👀
Larry Bird Was Different💯
Love larry. He's insane
He really said oh yeah I wanna talk trash I’m gonna cook😂😂😂😂

Fr tho that's why Larry wear that warm-up celtic's jacket. Coz he too cold a lot up in Boston. 🥶🧊
Larry was insane. Trust me... I'm a Laker fan.

Top 5 edit I've ever seen
Crazy that it went from Larry bird, to Paul Pierce, to Marcus Smart
Living legend
“where’s Larry huh?”
“on your head.”
Where Larry at huh? There he is.🔥🔥🔥🔥
i remember this moment well. it was buried for 15 years til it made it to youtube. it was bird's last great stand, this series was
This gave me chills bro
Larry should be in the goat debate he won mvp back to back to back had 3 ring one of the best 3pt shooters of all time in my opinion the best mid range shooter ever and two finals MVPs and he was clutch as he said a lot of guys can make a shot with the game tied but how many can make it down 1 or 2 and he was the first player to shoot 50-40-90 in a season and he did it twice curry has only done it once
"where is Larry huh"
Me if I was Larry:"Here bi$#@"
Growing up in New England in the 80s and playing hoops, Larry was basically God. All of our coaches wanted us all to be little Larrys.
Jordan and bird were my duo
Dive for the ball, probably had a concussion, and still came back won the game. Today's NBA players would've missed 10 games for that
For real, yet Larry Legend comes back in, wins the game for em!! That's OG r there!!
Larry bird is born different
Larry was just different. If not for the back issues dude would have been unstoppable for a lot longer.
Im ballin like “LARRY BIRDIE”
Bro got activated' Larry Potter🥶
