Girlfriend reacts Larry Bird Greatest Moments REACTION | Larry over Jordan?? 

This guy once fractured his cheekbone in a playoff game and came back in the game and put in that work against the Pacers! Absolute killer. Absolute legend!!!!

One of my favorites was Charles Barkley talking about Larry being upset one night and telling Charles man y'all are disrespecting me, you put a white guy on me. LOL

Don't antagonize your girl man, she's smart and she looks like a keeper :-)

Hey you two, that pass that made you say OMG...Bird did that EVERY GAME. Often multiple times/game. That's why his ball fakes made defenders freak out. He had the best court sense and vision ever. Legend was special. That's why he's called, by name, Legend!

Seeing Larry and magic as teammates and how smooth just those two worked together on the court .....it was priceless! imagining if they had been actual teammates in the NBA....The word legendary probably wouldn't do those two justice

Magic , Bird , and Jordan three greatest players of all-time. The very best at there positions and played in the same era. Very rare.

You have to realize the injuries that Larry endured and especially with his back after 86. It's incredible that he even played in the first real Olympics Dream Team!!

Love these Larry Bird reactions. Your girl knows her basketball 🏀

Another Larry Bird story is that he would go to the local outdoor court and start one foot from the basket, make a shot, step one foot back, make another, step one foot back, make another and keep doing that and then go all the way around the perimeter and if he missed one, he would start all over.🔥🏀 Intense dedication to being the best. 🏀

Larry got his extreme confidence from his sheer will to win and more so the fact that he spent more time practicing than any other player even on his own team - he was the first to show up and the last to leave, he lived for the game and the challenge of winning.

It’s no small thing that the crowd was cheering for Larry in the middle of that dream team.

And if you look at the end where Larry is raising his number 33 into the rafters, right next to it is number 3 for the late great DJ / Dennis Johnson who Larry said was one of the best players he'd ever had the honor to play with

LARRY LEGEND IS A UNICORN AND THE TRUE GOAT! 🐐

4:10 Correction: Jordan AND Pippen. Both of them were guarding Bird.

Larry Legend was a cold blooded killer in clutch time

Larry bird was Mr. Clutch. I saw him play most of his career. He was the most complete player I have ever seen. If you gave him a chance to win the game, he would stick a dagger in your heart ever time. He is the GOAT.

That famous Bird steal - it was Game 5 of the 1987 Eastern Conference Finals, series tied 2-2. The steal and basket by Dennis Johnson put the Celtics up by one with one second left in the game. The Celtics won the game and eventually won the series in 7 games. It would be the last time Bird made it to the Finals (where they lost to the Lakers). Bird's steal kept Detroit from reaching the Finals that year but they made it to the Finals for three consecutive years after that.

Yes ! Bird is the better shooter ! 50 40 90 CLUB - Bird 2 Curry 1 3 PT CONTESTS - Bird 3 Curry 2 By the way , Bird also has a 90% lifetime free throw percentage …

The funniest part of the game where he played left handed for 3/4 of the game was a story told by Kevin which i think he said Danny said " hey Jerome, wait till he starts shooting with his right hand"

Larry Bird is the GOAT imho, he was the most versatile smart player of all time, and still is. A healthy Bird would dominate the league today according to the greatest players of all time. And he IS a better shooter than Curry.🙂

If you haven't done it yet, the video of Bird's best passes is a thing of beauty.

14:45 - not only did Bird stare down Chuck Person after he took the ball from him...but Kevin McHale also smacked him on the ass for good measure!

Chuck Person is one of the all-time great players from the University of Auburn. Was the 86-87 Rookie of the Year after being the 4th overall pick. While with the Pacers, consistently averaged between 18-20ppg while shooting well from 3pt range for that era (35-37%). He never made an All-Star team but he was a good player. He led the Pacers in scoring, before a young Reggie Miller emerged as their star player.

Total Stat Points (Career Avg PTS + REB + AST + STL + BLK) Bird: 24.3 PPG / 10.0 RPG / 6.3 APG / 1.7 SPG / 0.8 BPG = 43.1 Curry: 24.3 PPG / 4.6 RPG / 6.5 APG / 1.7 SPG / 0.2 BPG = 37.3 In the past 50 years, here are the highest Total Career Avg Stat Points (PTS + REB + AST + STL + BLK) #1) Jordan = 44.7 #2) LeBron = 44.4 #3) Bird = 43.1 #4) Kareem = 42.9 #5) Durant = 40.8 #6) Magic = 40.2 Curry is #31 with 37.3 That's just to put things into to perspective

His run from 84-86 (3 mvps, two titles, three appearances, two finals mvps) ranks up there with any three year run by anyone ever. Not to mention he was the best player on the 86 team that is considered the greatest team ever besides the 96 Bulls. I would argue though the talent level in the league in 96 was not what it was in 86. All the stars were getting older, expansion teams came in and they sucked, and we were a few years away from Pierce, Vince, Kobe, Tmac, prime shaq etc. In 86 a lot of stars just happened to be in the prime of their career and Bird was still the best

My favorite moments are of him and Magic together. I think you and your girl would love the Dream Team documentary, and I would love to see that reaction

At any given point in the game Larry seemed to know where every one of his team mates were which allowed him to pass to a player that Larry wasn't even looking at!

His retirement ceremony sold out the entire Arena in Boston. And it was on a night when there was no other games, so it could be televised. Thats GOAT status.

Your lady is funny. I laughed too at Larry being a pain in the neck. That be Doc. (8:11)

Bird and Magic are the pillars of basketball. Two guy who made each other better as players, competitors and men.

He won the 3 point contest in 2 1/2 racks 13 in a row.

as great a shooter as he was it's his passing and smarts that always impressed me most. he really wanted his teammates to do well. truly great players have an it factor and Bird was loaded down with it

My favorite part of this reaction . . . Yoni (sp?) giving you "the look". Like Larry did to an opponent after he dropped them with the step back, and then swished the now wide open jumper!

BACK in the day the saying was "Michael Jordan will make you look slow, but Larry Bird will make you look stupid"...

The best part of watching this video was the looks your girl kept giving you. As fa as the video itself - all of it. These were just a few highlights. The most unbelievable thing about Bird was how many times in his career and during crunch time, he would tell the opposing team what the play was and where he was going to get the ball and shoot from and yet they still could not stop him. Show me another player in NBA history who did that on a regular basis like Bird did.

They didn't show it, but at Bird's retirement ceremony, Magic gave Larry one of his own jerseys with "To the greatest basketball player ever, but more important to the best friend ever." Jordan vs Bird and Boston? Jordan never beat Bird in the playoffs. In the 86 playoffs, Jordan scored 63 points but lost to Bird and the Celtics. You need to watch "The Case for Larry Bird". It shows more of the highlights and shows him playing hurt, including him coming back into the game after fracturing his cheek bone and leading the Celtics in a come from behind win. After retiring, he also won coach of the year and general manager of the year.

Ok, I'm way older than you guys, I watched Bird play with my own eyes. Something these highlight films don't show enough was his genius at passes. If you thought you had guarded him, turned out his "bad" throw went right into the hands of a teammate in scoring position. If you thought his desperation dive out of bounds for the ball was for show, well, the ball bounced right into the hands of a layup master. Of course he was a master shooter, but they don't give him credit enough for how great a team player he could be.

My favorite part of this video was Larry's 60 point game against the Hawks in New Orleans at the UNO Lakefront Arena because I was at that game with my brother and saw the whole thing.

Man sitting in the seat with the hat is Doc Rivers. Great ball player and legend in his own right. I watched Bird and Rivers play during both their hey-days, so I know him very well.

bird is way better than curry when it comes to shooting

Pat Riley, then coach of the Los Angeles Lakers... “If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save a game, I’d choose Michael Jordan. If I had to choose a player to take a shot to save my life, I’d take Larry Bird.”

The thing about Bird is that he could put it in with 2 or 3 guys in his face. Curry is a great shooter but I'd like to see him drain shots while triple covered

Can't remember who said it but o think the quote goes "Jordan made you look slow, bird made you look stupid"

Chuck "The Rifleman" Person, that's who that Indiana Pacer is trash talking to Bird

I like the hair! 👩🏽‍🦱 Bird was amazing. His game was different than most. More cerebral, he made everybody better. He was like a general on the court, and he had the physicality and bravado to take it right at you if he had to. You guys talked about Stephen Curry three point shot percentage which is 42% career. Bird is not too shabby at 37%. He came into the league the first year the three point shot was available, and it wasn’t emphasized as much as today. But Bird also did all that other stuff.

That was Doc Rivers in the chair! 😁

BaffourHD, good reaction, yeah Larry Legend was 6'10" he posted up centers, had 21 and 20 rebound games in the finals vs. MOSES MALONE! and had unlimited range shooting, plus could pass and shoot with both hands, steals, killer instinct, guy was unstoppable..

Larry Bird has scored more points and has more assists than anybody in the NBA, from the seated position on the court floor. 👍😎

The dude won 3 MVPs in a row

Great reaction. And yes, the red hair is wonderful. That steal and assist against the Pistons was to take the lead with no time left on the clock IN A PLAYOFF GAME. That's how clutch Larry Legend was.

Ya know when Larry hit that that shot & U said "That was over Jordan" ... When Larry turned , He SAW Mike com'n & still hit that dang shot !

Larry Bird was poetry in motion. He made everything he did with the in his hands look easy and effortless

The story I heard was that Bird learned the game in high school by playing after work with the black employees at the hotel he worked at. Because they were older than he was, he learned to talk trash from them, and learned his high release jumper.

Young folks that's Larry legend baby ,proud to be Celtic.

Guys, a note about the left-handed game in Portland. A really good player named Jerome Kersey was guarding Bird. And Larry was torching him LEFT-HANDED. One trip down court, Kevin McHale (Hall of Famer) yelled out ... "Hey Jerome, wait 'til he starts playing RIGHT handed." That Celtics team was a bunch of Trash Talk'n Heros. LOL, BWA HA HAAAAAA

I guess the thing that amazes me the most, is that he is the only person in NBA history to win the MVP as a player, coach of the year (Indiana), and executive (president) of the year (Indiana).

Larry Bird is one of the greatest nba players of all times, and also one of the biggest trash talkers of all times too, but Bird could back his trash talking up in every instant.

He was the GOAT for me!

I love her. She is the most mellow babe I've ever seen. She seems to have this cool calm about her.

When Larry stole the inbounding pass, all the Pistons had to do was inbound the ball to win. Larry had different plans, and that layup put the Celtics up by one to win the game.

It was called the Dream Team when the USA Basketball played in the Olympics.

Do more basketball. Do more Bird.

Larry saw his dad work hard, go to work with a broken foot-without going to a doctor because there was no money for food even. His dad drank and I’m not sure how old Larry was when his dad left. Single mom with kids and Larry worked hard and played to get into college. Everything he did was for a reason and to survive. He played better for his coach that he admired and respected. He played hurt all the time

Chuck Person was from Brantley Alabama a small 1A school. Went to Auburn then to the NBA a few years later his younger brother Wesley followed him to the NBA. They have both been a tremendous blessing to their community by giving back. They built a nice sport complex for the schools and youth to play and enjoy.

And your girl got some sass. Best kind. She’s smart and funny.

#33 ❤ great reaction vid. You two have great chemistry, had me laughing

That dude sittin’ in that chair is Doc Rivers. I have a crush on Doc. Always have.

Love your video! God bless

There are alot of Larry Bird videos that y'all should check out, because I don't think you will be disappointed. It's worth it to watch more than one of his videos, because they talk about his college and professional stats, that are CRAZY! I really like your red hair. Thank you both.

You two are amazing!!!

"hes so fine" lmao I heard that too haha and she got you at the end too lmao "why? Cause he's so fine?" Hahahalmao

U guys r hilarious. Bird cooking dudes is always 🔥.

Shows you how much your know-it-all man pays attention. “Who’s that talking at Bird?”…literally one second after the narrator says who it is…twice.🤔🤣😎

Larry Legend 🏀

It’s ok to cry at this. Love your red hair also!

You said people gonna be mad watching Larry score on Jordan. Truth is, Jordan had some spectacular games against Bird & the Celtics, but the Jordan Bulls never beat the Bird Celtics. That is why Bird is still in the convo for "The Goat". If Bird would've made the last second shot against the Lakers for a 4th ring. He, in my opinion, would be "The Goat" or at least even with MJ! Mike is!

It's good to see your girl again on your video, stay safe and God bless always guys, following from the Phillipines

I chant LARRY LARRY LARRY too. No shame in it.

Could you imagine if Magic and Bird had been on the same team? They'd have won like 10 straight championships together.

She made me laugh, he's a pain in the neck 😂😭🤣

Ty for these reactions. I love basketball with all my heart. I really miss these days when b ball was the greatest.

You guys are great fun!

Top NBA career combined stats per game (pts, reb, ast, stl, blk) additional career fg%,tp%,ft% 1. Jordan 44.7 -50-33-84 2. Lebron 44.4 -51-35-73 3. Bird 43.1 -50-38-89 4. Kareem 42.9 -56-06-72 5. Durant 40.8 -50-38-88 A bunch of guys in the 40’s.

At Bird's retirement, Magic gave him a shirt that said Bird was the best player ever. Jordan when asked said he would take Bird of Lebron as the best player. Hard to say but superstar after superstar always pick Bird.

Doc Rivers!!!! wearing the hat. Also coached the 2008 World Champion Celtics.

Excellent video. I'm glad I lived it first hand

If my life depended on a 3 pointer between Curry and Bird, I'd take Bird everyday and twice on Sunday's. no-brainer.

The hair Style Looks 👍 Wonderful!! Great Reaction!!!

The greatest ever. More end of time, game winning shots than anyone. Dropped 47 on Portland left handed! When asked by reporters why he used only his left hand, he said, I'm saving my right hand for LA, we play them tomorrow night! Won 3 MVPs during the greatest era of players. 3 3 point contest in a row , one while wearing his warm up stuff! Played the last 6 years with a broken back and blown Achilles tendon! Let me say this again for the doubters....HE PLAYED HIS LAST 6 SEASONS WITH A BAD ACHILLES TENDON AND A BROKE BACK! He said in an interview, if Len Bias hadn't died, he would have retired in 86 or 87, because Bias would have been the best in the NBA, better than Michael! Because of his back, they took a stationary bike to all games. Larry had to ride it, 1-2 hours before each game, to loosen his back, up!! Was the first 50/40/90 guy. When playing the bulls in conference finals, swept them! As a rookie, on third day of camp, came out and told reporters, this league is nothing, I will dominate this league! Worthy said, he would rather guard Jordan than Bird! Made 2 shots on purpose from behind the backboard! Got the whole Atlanta bench in trouble, for his shooting display against them. When the rockets had the Twin Towers, they should have won 2 titles. Bird and the Celtics, stopped them! He's the goat. Maybe the only better player was pistol Pete, but he just burnt out too soon, plus born with a unusually small heart pump side. He once told an opposing player who has a good first half against him, " are ur parents here, cuz ur not gonna want them to see, what I'm about to do to you!" So Bird drops 27 on him in the second half, and also shut him down. He tells the guy after the game, " that was for ur mom!" Ice cold! He played during an era, when there was no hack a Shaq foul, no finger hand elbow or body check fouls. And when centers and power forwards would break ur bones and punish you, if you went inside! I think it was either Chuck Daily or Pat Riley who said, " u want a end of game shot, pick Jordan. U want a shot to save ur life, pick Bird!"

Larry was and still is the absolute best white basketball player to ever lace a pair of chucks on his feet! Period! And top 5 ALL TIME!

Best part of this video is Yonni being beautiful and fully self-posessed...and watching the GOAT's highlights.

Homie be triflin with them questions lol

Yonni: "I just don't see that anymore." You're a lucky man.

Favorite part’s of video was when your girl dunked on your head every time you didn’t know what in the hell you was talking about 😂

Great reaction

In the chair with that hat. That Doc. Great guy btw got to talk to him twice at an old job. Really nice great guy

Chuck Person , the Rifleman! He said he was going Bird Hunt'n B4 the game.

Larry Legend is the GOAT.

That was funny Yonni 👍🤣😂🤣

My son who passed away last October loved every sport invented but football and basketball. I could see him watching these games. I still think magic Johnson was his favorite player. Bit thanks to both of you for these memories.
