There's Larry Bird... Then everybody else... Bird is without any doubt the greatest to ever do it... Bird toyed with and destroyed many hall of famers... LEGEND
My favorites are "Is your mother watching?" (Craig Ehlo), "I don't know why you running over here," (Magic), and " Over here, rook!" (Dennis Rodman.) 🤣🤣🤣
Larry doesn't get his Flowers because he was never a flashy player, he did his job and didn't seek attention so most youngsters don't really know just how good he was. It's people like you who have channels like this that help educate younger fans, so keep up the good work. Great reaction.
I mean he’s probably the most flashy player of that era besides Magic. This dude making globetrotter pass attempts every game. Behind the back when it was completely unnecessary. Going to his off hand for fun and not for fundamental reasons….. Larry not being “flashy”….. sorry that’s a bad take
Larry Legend was a living legend - between his incredible stats, his clutchness and during all this hie was doing off the chain trash talking - there was no one like him!
I love that quote from Michael after he scored *63 points* against the Celtics creating a new record and *STILL* lost... Michael said, *_"It's going to take more than 1 man to beat the Celtics."_*
@@davidmello5258 That’s what everyone has missed!!! I’ve been saying for years, Larry taught everyone even Jordan how to win,… Jordan incorporated Larry’s game to himself,… the fade away, the jab step, the trash talk and the clutch gene!!!!
Re: that called shot "off the glass, into the trainer", there's some more interesting context to that one you don't hear too often. As I remember, Larry was cooking them so much, one of the guys on the other team said he had some fouls to burn, so what they could do is just try to foul him and make him miss. Larry was basically predicting that they were gonna try to foul him. When he goes to take that shot, he gets kinda shoved. Supposedly, while that ball was in the air, Larry yelled out "MONEY!" and it still went in. THAT'S why the guys on the bench start laughing and throwing up their arms. They shoved him and it still didn't throw him off.
Only 1 player in NBA History that walked up the court, calling his own shots against the Best defenders in the NBA, against all the greats of the NBA, and made those shots to close games,….. no other player in NBA history, not even Jordan or Lebron, did this kind of trash talking and backing it up,… in the most physical era of the game!!! This is why he’s #1!!!! Greatest Clutch player of all time!!!!
When Brad Daugherty was telling his Fly Bird story he forgot to mention that Bird hit him on the butt with the ball. 😅 Larry Bird was something else. My GOAT.
Welcome to the rabbit hole. I watched him through his career. Top tier shooter, rebounder, passer, clutch, toughness, trash talk, dog and best all around player I've seen in almost 50 years watching the NBA.
*Hilarious* that Larry tells the Lakers he is going to take the winning the shot who were arguably the best team in their league filled with legends on the West Coast! LOL
Bird was that dude. During a road game in college, the opposing team's cheerleaders saw him at a nearby bar. They ordered him a bunch of beers. Bird drank them all, roasted the opposition the next night, and then thanked the cheerleaders for the free beers on the way off the court. 😅😂
One other thing that separates Bird from Labron is Bird did this on one team. Labron chased his rings to the highest bidder. A team that was already in a winning position. Bird took a team that was last to first and then stuck around.
I'd like to see LeFlop play with the injuries Bird had. I can't picture James playing w/a busted cheek bone. I saw a lot of Laker-Celtics games at the Great Western Forum.
I loved your reaction so much, Larry Legend and Magic saved the NBA 2 goats 🐐 MJ said Larry legend talk how to trash talk and how to get in peoples heads Larry and MJ are good friends to this day, and MJ always giving Larry his props 3 goats 🐐 love them ty again ❤
Bird didn't say INTO the trainers lap, even though that version is more fun. What he actually said were 2 words "trainer' lap", it didn't mean he would fall into the trainers' lap, but he was going to make the shot, from where the trainer was sitting. which was a 3-pointer. once again telling the opposition what he was going to do, then do it.
By the way at the beginning or Byron Scott was talking and showed the last second shot that was a championship game! That wasn't just a regular season game... Also the story by Brad Daugherty where he flew by and he said fly bird... That was also a championship final shot
That's not just "professional players" in that first example, that's Magic's showtime Lakers with Worthy and Kareem. And LB told them the play, with the game winning shot on the line. And delivered.
I'm sure that several other people have posted this, but one of the best compliments that Larry ever got was from Pat Riley. "If I wanted someone to take a shot to win a game, it would be Michael Jordan. If I wanted someone to take a shot to save my life, it would be Larry Bird."
I’ll tell you how much confidence Larry Bird had. I was watching an interview from the 90s and they were discussing how much Larry liked to take the last shot and Larry told the reporter “ there’s 40,000 eyes in this building and the other team and everyone knows I’m gonna take the last shot,so it’s up to them to stop me.” Notice he didn’t say “ it’s up to me to make it”. I think that says everything about his confidence. It wasn’t even a second thought in his mind that he would make a shot.
Please watch 4 crazy stories that prove Larry bird is the toughest player in nba video. You won't be disappointed! And then watch 5 times Larry bird played hurt video. He not only was clutch when he was in his prime but when he played hurt. Your respect for him will only grow I assure you.great reaction one again ❤
Matter of fact, jordan did get his trash talk from larry. He'll tell you himself that he learned how to talk by being on the receiving end of larry bird's comments
The video didnt go into it very much but Larry and Dr J got into a nasty fistfight after Larry just kept insulting DR J calling him an *_"Old man that needs to retire!"_* during the entire game.
Young fella, thank you for taking the time to check out Larry Bird. I grew up watching him and Magic, they were different. The fact that so many people don't know how they got down is a shame. The league is today because of those two🏀
Wait til you watch the _"GOAT"_ comparison video between Larry and Jordan. Jordan was *0 in 6* against Larry in the Playoffs and Michael had *63 points* in one of those playoff games and the Bulls *STILL* lost!
MJ learned a LOT from Bird...the mental part of the game, the trash talk and intimidation...and most importantly backing it up! That's why MJ doesn't hesitate to take Bird over Lebron...because he witnessed Bird first hand and knows that type of talent and mentality will always prevail over a player with only one or neither.
"We hear stories of Michael Jordan doing this, man. Did he get this stuff from Larry, bra?" Yes, in point of fact, he did. Jordan learned trash talk from Larry.
Didn't they take turns calling the shots? At any rate, those commercials are classic, especially when they added Barkley in. Legend has it they're still out there somewhere trying to win that 🍔 and 🍟. 😂
There are a lot of stories of Larry telling the other team and even some coaches don't put white guys on me it's disrespectful. When Larry was growing up he used to hoop with the hotel staff in his town, and they were black. Larry said that black basketball players were the best, and he only wanted the best guarding him. You should check out the short story PaulGeorge had to say about 60 year old Larry Bird. Its a good one. All these stories from NBA greats about Larry are good.
1986, I was 20 My dad was 42.... we loved NBA late 70s and 80s. My dad loved Larry in the clutch. He used to say if your life depended on a basket... he'd pull Larry to take the shot.
Don’t forget that Bird came into the league as a rookie and was a playmaker, a passer, a clutch shooter, and a trash talker. James did not. It took him years to develop these skills especially taking the clutch shot. He would rather pass it off to someone else.
@@cindyknudson2715 Really?? I don’t watch the NBA anymore. That’s not very good for his legacy. I also wanted to add that there wasn’t any flopping in Birds era or even before him. The players and fans would laugh the flopper out of the league. Imagine Wilt Chamberlain or Jerry West flopping! 😂
Growing up a Lakers fan, my dad took me to games at the Forum, I listened on the radio to every game, played them all out at my backyard hoop listening, Magic, Worthy, Coop, Scott, I was practicing my Kareem sky hooks. Orlando Woolridge who is in this video, damn that dude could dunk. Back then it was amazing
I was fortunate to be 17 in 1980 and geoqing up in the Boston area in terms of seeing Bird play every night throughout his career. Back then there was no internst and we could only eatch the games live, unless we recorded them on VHS. He was unbelievable
Two of my favorite stories about Larry. The first is the story from training for the dream team and him telling the defender what he is going to do 8-9 times in a row then doing it. The second one is from a bulls player I don’t remember who it was but I watched a video where he said he was starting to talk trash to Larry and Jordan steps in and stops him. That’s crazy when you have the best player in the world saying don’t get that guy started!!
From the other perspective, how much pressure is Bird putting on you when he tells you what he's going to do to you? Especially on game winners. Get you all hyped up, then hit you with one of those fakes....you're going to bite, and you're screwed
There’s no other player in his league history that called shots to win games and make those shots on a consistent basis,…. Not even Lebron, Jordan, or anyone else!!!! That should tell you something bro!!!!
Oh, here's a gem for you: John Salley on whether he'd pick prime LeBron or prime Larry. It's also funny, DO watch it to the end. ruclips.net/video/YOF3Ro7Imk0/видео.html p.s. Salley's such a laid back guy, and funny, too
@@JameenODHipHopNewsyour excitement watching these Bird videos reminds of the excitement before each of the games. The anticipation the day before each game was crazy. It couldn't get here fast enough. Great times.
What I love about Byron’s story and similar ones is how it’s mind games as well..players will think is he actually gonna do that or is he messing with us? And if he does do it they’ve gotta wonder next time is he actually gonna do it or this time is he gonna be fooling us, if I was creating the perfect basketball player I’d take Larry’s brain and passing
I love that your emphasizing these are professionals and are the best at that period of time. When you hear a generation claim they were playing against plumbers more in lines there wasn't the same money in sports at the time.
