A credit to all these greats who told and continue to tell these stories.. All of them note that all of this trash talking and gamesmanship was done because he was a fierce competitor... not any other reason as may be suggested in today's times.
No clue what you mean. Most every NBA and NFL player trash talks all the time. If you are acting like you're not suggesting racism while you're suggesting racism, then you are just as ignorant and stupid as you look to the rest of us.
Larry could back it up. Realize that the greatest defenders in NBA history guarded him: Rodman, Coop, Glove, Dr J, Worthy. No one could stop him or Jordan. They'd do whatever they wanted, whenever they wanted. Bird used to wait in the corner for them just to make them waste steps, then tell em' "You ran all that way for nothing". Remember he was King of the 40/50/90 club....LEGEND!!!! 🏀
In school I averaged only 8 pts a game last game of my career my cousin had to guard me I talked trash entire game and went off for 38 pts my coach was where that been all year just shrugged said it was personal 😊
I liken Kaitlyn Clark as the only potential female version of this man. She has no trash talk but her playing ability, in my opinion is that good. Bird was just different too.
@pokerpat6470 I'm just happy the stories of his playing days and his quick wit and super skills are being told with videos where you can read his lips and it's the same. He proved white men can't jump, they glide

Larry Bird - talking trash - is almost like Don Rickles jokes - everyone seems honored when either of them talk trash to them.- it's like an honor.
I've heard all of these stories before, but I still enjoy watching and laughing at everyone of them. Just can't get enough of Bird stories.
That's because Bird is STILL the GOAT!
BTW... HOOAH!
When GP says he's backing off with trash talking you, you know you're a legend.
Damn straight!
Bird didn't trash talk. He predicted 💯🏆🏀🏅🇺🇸
"Larry told us before game he was going to get forty but we showed him, we held him to thirty-nine points."
😂
😂
That'll show 'em.
Larry was so much fun to watch
That's why Larry is STILL the GOAT! 😈😈😈
80s+90s NBA a different game with different players so good
One of the all-time greats. The amount of heartache he gave us Hawk fans down here, especially in the playoffs, can't be put into words...
Love hearing old stories thanks for sharing
Mr. Larry Bird. Listening to your stories today from Texas. U.S.P.S.
Larry Legend!
I ❤ these stories!!
Mr Larry Joe Bird earned every letter in his moniker, Larry L-E-G-E-N-D 🐐
Larry Bird was the Rowdy Roddy Piper of Basketball.

The Glove GP giving props is a huge thing. Dude was exactly what his nick name said
I had season tickets for the Denver nuggets in 85 and 86, 4 rows in back of Doug Moe. I never missed a Celtics or Lakers game

Later in each of their respective careers, both 'Nique & "GP" played one season for the Boston Celtics.
Nothing but love....... ❤
Didn't shake hands for 13 years. Incredible story.
Never heard? I heard these stories dozens of times.
Bird is the best Celtics player ever!
Dominique Wilkins was an absolute beast!!!! Young people go look at his tape. I just realized he looks just like Evander Holyfield.
And they say he wasn’t one of the 50 greatest players. What a bunch of BS!
Absolutely the best athlete from that era and that includes MJ Dominique Wilkins Hall of Fame!
Hilarious
Best one is when he says the coach disrespected him by putting a white guy on him... That's ballzy.
I would love to call my dad and tell him Bird was talking trash to me
They say. Trash. Fact's
In school I averaged only 8 pts a game last game of my career my cousin had to guard me I talked trash entire game and went off for 38 pts my coach was where that been all year just shrugged said it was personal 😊
Wrf lol you were a good player just needed someone to motivate you 😂
The greatest forward in NBA history.
Yes, even YOU ain't it, LeBron!
It's only "trash" when you can't/don't back it up.
The Babe was supposed to have pointed to where he would hit a homer.
Me too Larry is the goat considering his athleitsion which wasn't very good
But his Basketball IQ is insane. No matter how fast you are, doesn't matter if The person you're playing against is already 10 steps ahead of you 😅
definitibamente Larry was difente.
I liken Kaitlyn Clark as the only potential female version of this man. She has no trash talk but her playing ability, in my opinion is that good. Bird was just different too.
Sorry, love Kaitlyn but Magic was right!: "There will never, ever, ever be another Larry Bird!"

Yeah French Lick Indiana had so many brothers to play against?
Heard every one of these stories a hundred times. Click bait.
I could hear them a hundred times more.LB.Legend.
How in the HE** is this clickbait?🙃
You don't even know what clickbait is, son!😆😅😂
