Lebron Fan REACTS TO Larry Bird GREATEST PASSER Of All Time | REACTION 

Hello y’all! Due to copyright on 8:48-9:03 it’s muted. Just FYI! Hopefully you like this video! Like! Comment! Subscribe! Let me know your thoughts on Bird’s passing and if you want more Bird videos!

Larry put his whole starting lineup in the hall of fame.

I heard a Player say this: "Magic makes easy passes look hard & Bird makes hard passes look easy".

I was never a huge Celtics fan but when Bird was playing I hated to miss a game. It was just such great entertainment. Especially when he and Magic went against each other.

Another good one. One of the advantages to being 76 years old is I got to see him play throughout his amazing career. My favorite player then and to this day.Thanks.

His awareness and precision was sick! I watched all this grown up I was lucky!

My favorite are his full court passes. Under, over, right or left handed.......poetry in motion! #birdgang🍀🐐💚

Greatest small forward and all around player to ever lace them up hands down. Anyone who watched his career knows his impact on every game he played

I always harp on this but will do so again. What separates the golden era that Magic and Bird ushered in, from contemporary BB is the physicality. All the players in that era had to be tough and then skillful. The contemporary NBA has upended that to skillful on the court and tough on twitter.

Bro... How do you get better than Larry Bird??? Greatest passer, at least top two... and great reaction! Respect to you bro....

What made the game beautiful back then was the movement. Very few isolation plays.

At one point you can see Kareem is trying to guard him and boom just like that Larry tosses the ball over Kareem to McHale who is at the other end of the court. That must have annoyed the snot out of Kareem. Here we got the alpha dog ready to get the ball and Larry just threw him an impossible pass that he had no chance of catching up to. The only thing that would make it more embarrassing is if he yelled "Fetch this!".

Bird and Magic both had court awareness that was off the scales. I would give the edge to Magic in passing because he did more of it than Bird so there is a bigger sample size but Bird was better with the tip and full court passes.

He is like James Bond 007 nobody does it better.🤫

Joker has watched all these films so many times! He even shoots from the top of his head like Larry!!

It's beautiful to see a person reach the skill of Larry Bird. It's bigger than basketball.

Imagine if the NBA counted "hockey assists." How many times did Bird make the tough pass but one other player touched the ball before the shot?

McHale and Parish were EATIN'

Great reaction. But dude put your mug in that little box / make the game bigger. Us old folks have to get out the bifocals🧐 to see the game. I've yet to see anyone who comes even marginally close to Bird. Some will say Lebron, Jordan, kobe..... No. Larry's biggest asset used to contend with athleticism is IQ. To me that's GOAT talk there.

Great breakdown. Thanks brother!

Larry is who to watch if you want to learn how to play basketball.

Clyde Drexel said he preferred guarding Jordan. He said Mike made you look slow, Bird made you look stupid.

I keep wondering how you are supposed to guard someone that is dangerous from every direction.

I was lucky enough to be at his first college game and to watch him for free(with student ID) for 2 years. He's in my top ten all-time. How can you really compare Kareem to Magic to MJ to Bird, all such greats!!!

Loving the shirt JP ❤

Everyone says how hard it was to play against him......playing with him and keeping up with him didn't look like fun either lol.

nice one JP!

Loved watching him play

GREAT REACTION

Larry told his teammates "You get one step on your defender you're getting the ball." Larry Bird and Magic Johnson saved the NBA from oblivion. Wouldn't you have loved to play ball with them ... what fun! Speed, passing ... exciting for true basketball fans to watch.

Always be my first and yes mj magic were unreal ,but its always gonna be bird (his heart was unmatched) but the IQ, i watched him in real time growing up on him,i was lucky as the leprechaun #LB33 💚🐦

A few more facts to ponder. Bird is ambidextrous, and had the highest IQ of all time. He could make passes others couldn't and wouldn't conceive of. Secondly, because Bird is in the conversation as the greatest passer of all time, at 6,10 he could see things others couldn't and therefore, it hurt his scoring average. Why would Bird take a 3 on a transition 2 on 1 like today's players do, when he could effortlessly make a higher percentage pass to a teammate? Add another 5 to 6 points on his PPG (at least if he decides to take the shot himself. And then add another few points on his average if he actually practiced 3’z. Honestly, it would be cruel what he would do to the NBA today.

I would have loved to have seen a game between the Larry Byrd Celtics and the Harlem Globe Trotters!

Thank you.😁

Now GO BACK and note how many passes were made with HIS LEFT HAND - and he could shoot it with the Left hand as well ! BEST EVER. Complete player. Shot. pass, inside and out, thinking knowing and OUT HUSTLING as well. Boom !! Better and it is undeniable !!!

I grew up watching Bird, Magic and Jordan. The best 17 years of Basketball.

Bird, Magic, Pistol Pete, J. Williams, Kidd, Stockton, Jokic, Luka Some of the best. Who am I missing?

Wish I could remember the game Larry had done a few full corte passes and the announcer goes Montana to Rice deep in the in zone and its good 😂sorry fokes a nother beautiful full cort from Bird to his favorite receiver Parrish Bird has to have the most yards thrown in the NBA

When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them because they were confused and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Matthew 9:36

Solid 4 minutes of full court/long passes, lol.

The Bird man in the TOP 3 of all time. His basketball IQ was off the chart...

I'm from Scotland never watched a game of basketball in my life its football over here (soccer) Anyways I can't get enough of larry bird videos

For me Larry is the GOAT, because basketball is a game of skill. And skilled he was. Both hands. Builtin Radar. Tough as a nail. Incapable of giving up. Clutchest man to ever live - in any sport. Got his teammates in the HOF by making them better. I love Kevin, Robert, DJ - especially DJ, what a guard - and Danny and all the others, but would they have gotten to the HOF if they played for the Hawks? Or any other team? Despite the disadvantages he had, he came up with a way to win anyway. By playing it better than anyone else. In my opinion the GOAT has to at least win against the competition he is facing, since he can't play Wilt or somebody anymore. That's MJs achilles. Larry had to quit for him to start winning. Lebron is just not good enough - no clutch here and he's a pussy. I was lucky and got to see him doing it. I had that jersey back then and I never ever took it off. That got me that nickname :)

Reacting to the good videos. Good for you sir!

4:35 Dennis Johnson!

Your the only one on Utube who knows what he's talking about.Keep up the good work.

Bird never cried to the Refs either, nothing like Lebron who cries like a new born babe every 3rd play. If Bird felt someone fouled him hard or a Ref was unfair, he would punish them with another 3 pointer and a Win.

Robert parish was an amazing center

All the name dropping and you left out PISTOL PETE MARAVICH? That is where everyone from Bird and afterwards got it from!

One of his coaches called him Kodak because of his ability to remember who was where.

Larry’s passes took away from his scoring. If you don’t have the ball you can’t score. Absolute unselfish and the individual was not the focus, it was the team win..

Larry Bird was the master and owner of the no look pass. FACT

The Yankees cap with the Bird jersey is the height of heresy. I do love the appreciation for Larry Bird, however.

Bird vs Lebron comparison, stats and facts on a per game basis over their careers. Points: Bird 24.3 mostly from mid range and out. Lebron 27.2 with around 40% from dunks and layups made easier by rule changes that essentially keeps the defensive team out of the paint. Midrange %: Couldn't find Bird's but we know it was good. Lebron 37.5%, oookaaay? 3 pointers all time league average is about 35.5%: Bird 40.65%, Lebron 34.5%. Freethrow %: Bird 88.6%, Lebron 73.5%. Assists: Bird 6.3/game often from dazzling passes underneath the basket, Lebron 7.3/game usually from relatively easy passes to wide open shooters as the result of his ability to drive to the basket. Rebounds: Bird 10/game, Lebron 7.5/game. Blocks: both at 0.08/game. Steals: Bird 1.7/game, Lebron 1.5/game. Turnovers: Bird 3.1/game, Lebron 3.5/game which is one of the worst ever. Clutch: Bird all of the time: Lebron: other than a few in the playoffs absolutely terrible. Defense: Bird consistent with a few all defensuve teams, Lebron more defensive teams earned or not, but look at his defense now🤣 Hustle: both had their day, but Bird didn't stop even with a crippled back. Who is the best small forward ever?

Best passers ever. Pippen bird magic wade mark Jackson wilt chamberlain

Larry Bird would make professional basketball players look like fools.

I would have to argue that Jason Williams was the best passer of all time.

Bird wasn’t fast, but you don’t have to be fast if you can see 3 seconds into the future.

I don't know magic is a good one

Bird coulda been a quarterback...

Bird is there with jordan

do you have the balls to underleg KAREEM

Bird wanted a win, not personal glory.

All things considered Bird is a better all around player than Lebron James and is probably the best small forward of all time. He may be top 5 but give me a break he is not ahead of Jordan. Jordan average 5.3 assists per game and Bird 6.3 but Jordan's clear number 1 responsibility was to score. Look at Jordan's assists, they are just pretty much just as flashy as Bird's. Lebron James' assists mostly come from his amazing ability to drive to the basket, force double and triple teams, then make a relatively simple pass to an outside shooter. Also to put Bird above, Magic, Stockton, Kidd and even Nash when considering the greatest passer of all time is a bit of a stretch.

Sorry but it should be illegal to wear a Celtics shirt and a Yankee cap at the same time.

You have to be young, demographic ideology insulated to call yourself a Basketball fan and NOT KNOW LARRY LEGEND was the very best ever Basketball player. Look and learn youngin's !!!

Greatest passer ever is Jason Williams aka White Chocolate

Bird the greatest passer ever? That's silly. Great passer no doubt but not as good as Magic or John Stockton or a number of other players including Jokic. Bird's career highlights as a passer are things Jokic does every day as a matter of routine.

As a Boston fan and resident a Celtics shirt with a Yankees hat????? F’n sacrilegious as hell!!! Nothing Boston should be mixed with New York!

One takeaway from this is how his teammates finished off these insane impromptu passes. This must have been practiced quite a bit in scrimmage between the team. I hated Bird as a Rockets fan back in the day. Because he was so good. Looking at the pathetic state of the nba now, I miss those days. I'll just watch reruns of Olajuwon, David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, et al. Some of us got to witness the golden era.
