...Bird was great even before you could take 4 steps without being called for traveling...

He shot right in front of the Knicks bench and as the ball left his hands and was still in the air, he turned to the opposing coach and said "you better get somebody that can guard me", then the ball swished through the net...that's just gross!


X-Man: "he said he's gonna get the ball right here, and I'm gonna shoot the ball right in your face"

"I'm just trying to see who's gonna finish second."

Doc Rivers (before he was the C's coach), among others, talking about when Bird dropped 60 on the Hawks. One of the sickest shooting displays you'll ever see. You'll also see the Hawks players on the bench reacting -- laughing and such -- to his crazy shots going in.

Coach Fratello after the game: "it's one thing to be in awe, it's another to root for the other team"

longer clip of Bird destroying the Hawks that night.

Watch the absurd shots at 4:10 seconds (and the Hawks bench reaction), then at the 5:00 mark,

What an ignorant child! It had nothing to do with being black, you fool! Larry and Michael don't now, and didn't back then have a problem with each other. They were friendly towards one another. This was just Larry goofing around with Michael out of fun, not out of malice... You petty, angry child.

Cry, snivel, whine!
