  • I am from the UK and to be honest, basketball is just not a big thing here. However, Mr Bird is just a phenomenon. His passion, commitment and talent combined to make him, undeniably the GREATEST OF ALL TIME.

    I remember that game. Emotions throughout New England soared that day for all watching that game. The man who gave us so much joy for over a decade went down so hard but then came back, unexpectedly, like part of the hero's journey. At that moment, we all knew. Everyone watching the game knew. The game was won at that moment. There was no way Larry Bird was going to lose that game.

    My heart is pounding and I'm getting goosebumps watching this. And I've seen this a hundred times. I'm still amazed by Larry Bird's talent, toughness, leadership, and winning ways. He'll forever be my favorite player.

    I grew up watching hockey and football and had no interest in basketball until by accident i watched the Boston Celtics play on tv. From that moment on i was a Celtics fan watching the amazing Larry Bird. After he retired i never watched or cared much for basketball again. He became my favorite player in any sport and still is today, nobody can come close to this mans talent and heart for the game and the excitement he gave me.

  • @Lovetheducks
    I get the last word. That’s the biggest understatement ever. Bird is the GOAT.
  • @irishgrl
    LARRY LEGEND IS A UNICORN AND THE TRUE GOAT!!! 🐐 ☘️

    Look at Bird's hair standing up when he came back out. He went Super Saiyan.
  • Watched it live on tv. Unbelievable really. Just another reason why he's Larry Legend
  • @makgeoff
    Bird is a real "man" & just a perfect player, teammate, coach & executive.
  • The showboat was dirty. Really dirty. Dirty or not the GOAT still owned him. After watching this. Auburn should be ashamed of him.
  • @markmustb1
    Never watched BB after he left -I miss Larry So much !
  • In my opinion the most complete player ever. He could pass, shoot, defend, take the last shot, rebound and always had the mental and toughness edge over everyone. And btw if you’ve never had a back injury you’ll never know how hard it is to even just get out of bed. I know because I’ve had it several times and to push through that and not only perform but to perform on a high level is a testament.
  • Bird in TRACTION and plays. And here I am hoping Embiid doesn’t take too many nights off, and on him I’m pinning my hopes? Contender vs Pretender right there!!
