    As a child of the late 70s and early 80s, and a huge basketball fan, I watched all of this happen. I love this documentary and I try to watch as many reactions to it as I can because I LOVE to see people realize how special both of these guys are and what they, and their rivalry, meant to the development of the game.

    In addition to trying to keep competative edge...I think Larry kept people at arms length so if they "cut out" on him he wouldnt feel pain like when he lost his Dad...but, Magic wore him down with his charisma and genuine spirit. 😊 He is probably one of few in Birds inner circle. Just my thoughts.❤ and for sure I loved this documentary!

    You have to remember that back then HIV was still thought of as a gay disease. That’s why everybody was so incredulous that he had acquired it. I remember being in the dorm at college when the press conference was announced. This was pre-internet btw. I figured he was retiring because of knee issues. It shocked the nation for real.

    It's hard to put myself in the mindset of people back then because I can't help but judge the other players for how they treated Magic post-HIV. I'm glad Larry didn't do the same, it's like Johnson said; Larry's a straight shooter.

      The rapid medical advances made in the 90’s (after Magic’s HIV announcement, followed just a couple weeks later by Freddie Mercury’s death of AIDS-related pneumonia) had a great deal to do with it.
      Freddie’s surviving band mates founded The Mercury Phoenix Trust and put on a huge Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert as an HIV/AIDS Benefit - when Magic started the Magic Johnson Foundation with similar goals, Queen Productions Ltd./ Mercury Phoenix Trust was one of the first and biggest donors. The two organizations still cooperate to this day, raising funds and awareness - and directing those funds to researching new treatments and to distributing medications to HIV+ patients in need.

    I felt same way as you do towards the doc when I first saw it years ago, I’m 80s kid I didn’t get into basketball till 91 when I discovered mj winning first title against magic, I noticed bird and mj as my favs at the time I always thought mj is better we didn’t have cable showing older games I never knew bird was this good, till the year Allen iverson draft day I saw something special in him I was 15 at the time I love basketball at the point and I’d play overnights after overnights playing in our projects basketball court, I even had one memorable night with one of my older brothers, it was like 1 am, during winter, a lot of snows, basketball court is frozen with ice and slippery, we’d go out there and play for hours till around 4 am, he’d cook us some ramen to warm each other up.
    I idolized iverson till his retirement, he’s my favorite but he’s not goat in my book tho, I discovered UA-cam having past nba videos, till I came across Larry bird ultimate mixtape I got hooked back into basketball here I am in my 40s and my body isn’t in good shape I still want to play basketball even tho I haven’t played in almost two decades, bird is goat to me till I rediscovered pistol Pete Maravich whom I do know about but never saw him play, just sport cards and pictures, he’d tell me pistol is godfather of basketball, if it wasn’t for Pete, there would be no magic no bird no mj, I ignored him but I ended up getting him pistol Pete sport card for his birthday since he never had anything related to him, he passed away in 2010, I saw pistol Pete videos on here I’m amazed my dad was right all this time, I know pistol didn’t have much of good career in nba, but what I learned about him I’d say pistol Pete as my goat, with bird trailing behind along with Earl “The Goat” Manigualt
    I doubt this would be read but it felt good getting that out

    Larry Bird after upsetting the lakers in 84. Had a converse commercial at lunch break Magic was going to his trailer and Larry said no way my mom has a big spread laid out. Magic said ok . But was concerned. But when Magic got there Larry’s mom asked Magic for a hug! Larry’s brother said you are my favorite player! During lunch they found out they grew up poor and fatherless. And found basketball as their escape! After that to this day they don’t have to talk long but they felt so close!!!!!!
