    Whoa! Larry Joe almost lost it there for a second. Got all choked up and emotional. One of the most stoic guys in the galaxy. It goes to show you how much passion he still has for the game and the players.

      Larry has cried in public several times. He's pitched fits, been in slap fights, screamed, hollered, and pitched fits. Larry is my favorite player ever. I've got his shirts, posters, DVDs. I love him, but wth is wrong with you young guys? Do none of you have strong men around you? My Grandfather quit school in 3rd grade to work the farms, and worked full time until he was 80. Never complained. I never saw my father cry until my mother died at 60, and he thought he was alone. I feel so bad for yall being raised by weak men.

      Best part of this video! Best Part of Larry/Mamba type guys? Reached the peak and it STILL wasn’t enough! What’s next? They really never stopped to smell the roses while playing… wish Kobe knew the love the entire world had for him… while he was alive nobody was telling that MFR they thought he was great tho 👌🏼, mamba was arrogant enough already 🤣 Reggie is every bit the scorer as any other great! Unfortunate he never got the ring but didn’t chase it & like Larry and Kobe he stayed with the team that drafted him! Much respect Reg

    What a fantastic title! Larry Bird and Reggie Miller are absolute legends in basketball, and it's always exciting to hear them share their experiences and insights. Their stories must be filled with incredible moments from their careers. It's also intriguing to think about the advice and messages they have for today's All-Stars. The evolution of the game and the perspectives of seasoned players like Bird and Miller can provide such valuable lessons and inspiration for the current generation of stars! 🏀✨

      What? He was holding back. He can't say what he really thinks. But he did in a respectable way. The nba sucks. Sucks ass. The players are all pussies. He threw out there how he and everyone else played injured. Played every game. Let me guess. U are under 30. The nba is pathetic. I'd u can sit through watching a game thst is sad. They're lazy and weak. Over 50 players averaging over 20. No defense. They cry all the time
      And LeBron is the biggest example. It sucks period

Many don't know he was a horse enthusiast/barrel racer and he would compete here in Indiana. Spent many horse shows getting to know him a little. He was a wonderful human!
