  • Larry and Dirk are nothing alike, besides skin-color. Larry is 6'9". Dirk is 7'0". Larry is a 3. Dirk is a 4-5. Larry was a MUCH better playmaker than Dirk is, was, and ever will be. Just because they're both white and can shoot from 23' doesn't make them similar. Please stop comparing current players to the Legends. Dirk is hell of a ballplayer and I'm not taking anything away from him, but anyone who knows the game of basketball will tell you he ain't no damn Larry Bird man...

    Not even close.

  • Magic Johnson "Their Will Be No Other Larry Bird" Dirk Nowitzki "Yeah Sure"XD

  • I hope that whenever he decides to hang up his sneakers, something like this happens for Tim Duncan, too. I know he doesn't play for a big lights, big city market like Boston, but he's meant just as much to the people in and around San Antonio as Bird does to Boston. Of course, Larry's a legend, but Tim isn't that far behind (regarded by many as the greatest PF ever, 4 rings, 3 Finals MVPs, 2 MVPs, 13x All-Star...)

  • This is like when i told my parents i was gay.

  • Im not a Laker fan, never will be a Celtic for life. But damn that was some class act by Magic, a true man I say. Sad moment there in NBA history, but both will never be forgotten ever.

  • I have been a Laker fan since 1983, but when Bird retired I cried. Magic retired one year earlier and when Bird retired I knew it was the end of an era. MJ was great, but what Larry and Magic shared was something that will never be relived in sports history. I HATED Bird, but Lord knows I HAD to watch him play. He was phenomenal.

  • Larry fucking legend!!!!!!!!

    

  • larry bird said that one day there would be another larry bird.i think that this player is dirk nowitzki.but even dirk is not like larry and kobe will never be like jordan!!!!

  • @TheGreektiger wel said. love kobe and dirk but they're not JORDAN or BIRD !!! i actually think Magic was better than Kobe, but i know i'm in the minority on that one...still gotta respect the legends...Dr. J was something else too!

  • @quincee33 I am a life long Laker fan and I agree. Kobe can't run a team the way Magic could. He can't control the tempo of a game the way Magic could. Magic and Bird controlled the game like they were playing NBA 2K12.

  • @terrybigteekemp A big difference between Magic and Kobe is also attitude and the way they carry themselves away from the court.Magic was/is a class act that brings smiles to faces wherever he goes and to whoever sees him.

  • Larry said there will be another bird, we have Dirk, he isn't quite there, but he is the closest thing.

  • Thank you LARY :)

  • Love it. Not overly-sentimental, but acknowledging the fans and his organization in his own way. A true class act.

  • dirk is simalar in ways to larry he for sure not him but in a way

  • Boston vs Lakers, greatest teams greatest rivals

  • you guys hate lebron now... but when he retired everybody will cry too! LOL and larry bird is one of the baddest small forward's ever!

  • @BB0ysGam3s lebron who?

  • @santoro19782 LOL im a fan of lebron but i love the jokes <3

  • @BB0ysGam3s i ain't joking.....you shouldn't even mention larry bird and lebron in the same sentence......bird was a 3 time champions and was a clutch shooter.....and lebron isn't any of those things.....aside from the fact that he chokes whenever he has to step up.....

  • @BB0ysGam3s and this comes from a guy that isn't even a celtics fan.....

  • @santoro19782 lol

  • @BB0ysGam3s i'm fairly certain that I will not cry when Lebron retires, lol

  • @sanitary103 lmao XD everybody hates lebron lol

  • the celtics have not been the same since Larry Bird retired, as in they are no longer as relevant as they used to be, and the Celtics have 17 NBA Championships, that is completely inexcusable for a storied franchise like that, yes they won a Championship in 2008 with the new addition of KG, Ray Allen, but only 2 Finals appearences, 1 Ring since 1986? something is not right

  • larry is the best shooting forward in the history of basketball

  • @ziervoo best player*** you mean.

  • @Dnw4pro no his royal airness was the greatest but im a celtic fan

  • @ziervoo Bill Russell was the greatest. Your Royal Airness is a shitty manager

  • NBA: Glad to meet you Larry!

  • Comment removed

  • My favourite sports rivalry

  • michael jordan is michael jordan

    kobe is kobe

    magic is magic

    bird is bird

    lebron is a crybaby and a bum

  • and Magic was right there will never be another larry bird, or even a white guy close enough to larry bird

  • Larry Bird!!!! We'll miss you!

  • closes thing to Larry Bird now is Dirk.

  • @32abazz and the distance between Larry and Dirk is absolutely enormous. Larry was considered the best player in the world from 81-88 and won 3 consecutive MVPs in his era.

  • @32abazz hell no!!! he has no hustle, no heart, no creativity, not the rebounding skills, no closely as smart only thing he does that Larry Bird did is that he has a very good shot.

  • "Of all the people I play against, the only one I truly fear is Larry Bird." -Magic Johnson. Two of the greatest players to ever play the game!

  • Why do you have to keep on comparing larry against kobe? They were separated by eras: the former, along with magic, mj, isiah, wilkins, made the gold standard in basketball; the latter are mere copycats of those standards. One need not be a genius not to notice.

    Look at Bird, yes he can't jump as high as the others, he's not as athletic, but boy the guy could play. Magic even dreads playing against Bird and Jordan always have a hard time keeping up with the guy. Jordan can score 50 or 60 and

  • How old is larry bird? He looks over 50 in this video. No offence to larry bird

  • I've read a lot of comments on different posts now about how Kobe is better than Bird, Kobe is better than Jordan, but it's all pure speculation. The argument about players today being faster and more agile is ludicrous, there were plenty of agile legends playing when Bird played, but he still stopped them in his tracks. Bird was well documented as being slow and unable to jump, but he could take over a game whenever he chose to, along with Magic.

  • LeBron > Larry Bird

  • larry bird made it ok for white people to play basketball

  • who better to farewell you than the greatest point guard of all time?

    a humble man through and through

    both of them

  • 1991: Earvin "Magic" Johnson, 1992: Larry Bird, and 1993: Michael Jordan, even though he would return.

  • haha, the 2k insider guy all ways guotes this =D

  • @FCBanton Thats how i found this

  • Comment removed

  • Larry Bird 3 rings Magic Johnson 5 rings Paul Pierce 1 ring Kobe Bryant 5 rings

  • @wacko767 - Bill Russel 11. John Havlicek 7. Shaq 4 Duncan 4. Lots of people win rings. Always with great players. I'm not sure what your point is but you're only telling a small part of the story. For example Kobe was only the man on 2 of his. Magic on 3/4.

  • @SCGstag15 oh i know i was just putting the rings down for comparison i agree with you all the way

  • @wacko767 - My bad, just didnt get your point. Long live Larry legend.

  • TO ME.....

    DIRK IS GREAT AND A BEAST, BUT HES NOT BETTER THAN LARRY. LEBRON WILL NEVER BE BETTER THAN LARRY, SORRY!!! MVPS DO NOT MAKE YOU A LEGEND

  • @TheBallerDM237 Nearly not tatally. In which LBJ is 6'9 same with Bird, can play PF for 2nd position not like Dirk which rarely play SF cuz hes a PF/C. lbj can play pg and bird also but not dirk, so no way they can b compared. yeah, dirk can pass the ball cuz that what he is.. he got greater vision than other pfs. bird can pass better cuz hes not a pure pf, he can play sf/pg. they differ in size and gameplay so no way they can b compared, but BIRD>LBJ.

  • @xXDeBlAcKLeGeNdXx Nope. No chance in hell.

  • LARRY IS KING, BUT HEIS NOT BETTER THAN KOBE, MJ, MAGIC AND KAREEM

  • @darryl74l well if ur saying that kobe is better cause hes working on championship 6 and 7 then by that logic bill russell is the best player to ever play the game 11 championships and kobe is never gonna reach that number

  • @elotero3149 no, im just saying kobe is just better

    larry 27th in scoring, kobe will be #1

    larry 0 all def first team awards, kobe 9

    larry also averaged more turnovers.

  • @darryl74l - You've selected things that suit your point. Larry was the man on a team that contended for 8 or 9 years. He was an all round player, a loved teammate and an iconic one of a kind player. Kobe is none of these things.

  • @darryl74l Better than Kobe.

  • larry bird the king

  • This full kaleidoscope of skin colors was a relatively recent evolutionary development, according to biologists, occuring alongside the migration of modern humans out of Africa between 100,000 and 50,000 years ago. The consensus among scientists has always been that lower levels of vitamin D at higher latitudes — where the sun is less intense — caused the lightening effect when modern humans, who began darker-skinned, first migrated north.

  • Comment removed

  • @AdiReid23 no way larry bird can be compared to dirk, they have different gameplays. Bird>LBJ, will do.

  • @xLeiRage first of all Dirk was supposed to be with the celtics because they spoke with him and made a deal, the coach for the celtics also said that he could compare him to there past star Larry Bird. But after all of that, the Mavericks beat them to it . So just keep LBJ out of this convo.

  • @AdiReid23 Hahaha obviously. Compare their stats.

  • @AdiReid23 I don't see why people compare the two. Yes, Dirk is good, but he could never rival Bird.

  • @AdiReid23 any day!!!

  • @AdiReid23 Larry Bird > Anything

  • @AdiReid23 Not even close

  • Larrys only advantage over kobe is rebounding, kobe averages 1 assist shy of Larrys career average. Larry also turn the ball over more. Kobe is more skilled and just a better player. Ask magic!!!

  • Larry Bird > Kobe Bryant

  • @dxdude2004 Hell No

  • he can't jump but gets the rebound. he can't run but ends the fast break. that's how great he was. he was only given about 90% of a basketball player's talent unlike that of those afro american with 99%. he made the best he can ever had with that 90% talent to be considered as one of the best basketball player of all time while others had 99% talent but not yet considered as one of the greatest player of all time

  • LARRY WILL BE #33 IN 8 YEARS!! IN FOUR YEARS KOBE WILL BE NUMBER 1 ALL TIME SCORING. PLUS IN ALL TIME PLAYOFF PTS KOBE IS 2ND NOW, LARRY IS 8.

  • KOBE WILL PASS ALL OF THEM IN SCORING AND HAD MORE DEFENCIVE AWARDS THAN MAGIC AND BIRD. THE REAL TOP 10 LIST IS MJ, RUSSELL, KAREEM, WILT, KOBE, MAGIC, BIRD, SHAQ, DUNCAN, AND THE BIG O.

  • @oneoverjordan23 That is just because Kobe win all those this year, If Kobe played againt n during Bird Time, Kboe would be killed by Bird. Bird played way better skilled n mad skill he have.

  • larry is better than kobe because of magic. the same way with magic. he is better than kobe because of larry. kobe is a top ten, top fifteen talent of all time. but he cant touch the stratosphere where magic and larry reside. its an exclusive club, only the two of them is in there. kobe is tied up with duncan, shaq, west, thomas as one of greatest ever to play to game

  • Larrys only advantage over kobe is rebounding, kobe averages 1 assist shy of Larrys career average. Larry also turn the ball over more. Kobe is more skilled and just a better player. Ask magic!!!

  • I love it when Magic shows up with the Boston Celtics t-shirt on and the speech that he gave.It just means a lot for both players relationship.And showing that no hating is on between them,just a hunger to beat each other...

  • plus larry and magic had 3 hall of famers each. mj and kobe had 1. gasol is a solid and smart pkayer, but a hof player, yeah right!!!! Plus payton and malone were washed about the time they arrived in LA. bird & magic has 3 hof playing at a high level. kobe is better!!

  • Larrys only advantage over kobe is rebounding, kobe averages 1 assist shy of Larrys career average. Larry also turn the ball over more. Kobe is more skilled and just a better player. Ask magic!!!

  • @oneoverjordan23 Dude you're retarded!

  • larry would not keep up with kobe, sorry!!!

  • @oneoverjordan23 In a one-on-one game, fine. But as a team game....Kobe is nothing even remotely close to Larry Bird or Magic Johnson. The game is more than just scoring points, and Bird and Magic illustrated that. Do you think for one second they cared who was #1 or #2 guy like Kobe did?

  • @oneoverjordan23 I might agree with you, there. Still would be interesting.

  • But player to player, kobe is better.

  • @oneoverjordan23 Larry would beat the crap out of Kobe in his prime.

  • @KryptoChronicutelite HELL YEAH FUCK KOBE THE BALL HOG BRYANT

  • @KryptoChronicutelite sure in shooting but kobe was waay faster and more agile than bird. Kobe in his prime would just keep dunkin on bird.

  • @501stEliteClone For each dunk, Larry would've splashed a 3 pointer.

  • @KryptoChronicutelite Wait on the rules of 1 v 1 its winners ball. Kobe will not miss a dunk so how will larry ever get the ball? Its true is a great shooter but u know speed kills.

  • @501stEliteClone Larry wouldn't have missed a 3 or 2 pointer. And Larry would've just played defense on him and forced him to shoot.

  • @KryptoChronicutelite Yeah sure but kobe can shoot too. Still he has speed dude he would just cross larry  and flush it on him.

  • @501stEliteClone Don't think so, dude. Bird plays good defense. And is the best shooter in history.

  • @KryptoChronicutelite that may be the case but i doubt he can keep up with Kobe in his prime.... plus back in those days people didnt really cross much they whould just post and hook. The players in this era are like crazy fast and agile. I know bird would be a good match but they are separated by time. Bird is a legend and im sure Kobe will get his jersey retired and enter the hall of Fame. Im sure he will also get a statue for that matter. I am not criticizing bird he is just not fast enough.

  • @501stEliteClone: Unless you're playing HORSE, Kobe would beat Larry 1:1. But if you picked four random NBA players and had them play 5:5, Bird's team would beat Kobe's team.

  • @badpdx depends on on alot of things. Who is on who if Kobe plays with a dominant bigman than thats a power duo

  • @501stEliteClone Correction: "The players in this era are crazy young and stupid". They weigh like 10lbs more on average from lifting weights, but does that overcome their lack of necessity to PROVE themselves before signing 1million+ contracts? We hand scrubs contracts these days for millions of dollars, back in Birds "weak" era, you had to PROVE yourself in the NCAA, where they play for PRIDE, before you ever signed a contract. The guys today are physically tougher, but mentally weaker.

  • @dantheman9758 Well thats not entirely there fault if you want to get drafted and your still in High School are you seriously gunna turn that down. Scrubs and stupid you say well they dont REALLY need to be smart to play Basketball. I know where you are coming from but when you are gaining alot of money playing a sport you dont really need to be THAT intelligent. And the reason why the people get more money is because the league is much more successful as in THEY HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY PLAYERS.

  • @501stEliteClone My bad I should have clarified, - by stupid I actually meant immature/bad work ethic and I derived that conclusion by them being so young, yet handed so much with much less indication they'll earn it. In Bird's era you needed to go farther to prove your worth before consideration for the league, and I don't blame the players I do acknowledge the system is what created the split. But I was just defending Bird's era a bit saying <athleticism doesn't trump the <work ethic.

  • @dantheman9758 oh definately sure birds era the players worked more of course you could see it. Yeah players are immature these days cuz they get younger and younger..... Its kool taht u respect birds era cuz it was great and what ur saying is true their era u had to work for it........

  • @dantheman9758 today they are mentally pussys ! Larry could stare into one guys eyes today and he would brake down on the spot and start crying like a BITCH!

  • @oneoverjordan23 Too bad basketball isn't a one on one game :D

  • Kobe would kill Larry one in one. Kobe us just a better player

  • Larry Bird and Magic Johnson saved the NBA.

  • Bird coild not jump, but he could rebound..........

  • Larry is a legend. But to any nay sayers who thinks kobe is not better. You are delusional.

  • @oneoverjordan23 lol. Defense, I'll say Kobe in his prime was better. But shooting and clutch, Bird wins by a mile

  • @pingtv kobe would shit on bird....

  • @mandypants02 yea but bird would win the basketball game

  • 0:33 Larry Bird will you marry me? 0:40 Ahhhhhhhh LOL!

  • iMadDeadMuffin.....Learn how to spell dude damn. You probably don't even know, who Larry Bird is. Stop talking about kobe, this has nothing to do with him.

  • stats dont lie.  magic also said kobe is better than himself, so if larry is on magics level. Then kobe is better than larry. Why cant you compare, Jordan is compared to Wilt. Anyone can be compared dummy. Kobe is just better.

  • @oneoverjordan23 yea better at raping people off the court

  • You guys are so retarded. You can't compare Bird to Kobe. And, I know Kobe would do the same. You can't put Kobe and Bird in the same class. Bird and Magic, set the tone. Larry , is a lengend and if you don't agree, well your not very educated about sports.

  • Kobe will be 2nd, possibly 1st in scoring and larry at 27. larry will be 30th by that time cuz timmy and someone else will pass and paul pierce is on larrys tail. Offence kobe.  9 all def teams, and 0 for larry. defence kobe. rebounds and slightly in passing goes to larry. plus larry ave more turnovers. Kobe is a better player, PERIOD! Dud you know, kobe shot a better 3pt % in the playoffs.

  • NUMBER 1 VS NUMBER 30. CMON SON!!

  • I AGREE LARRY WILL ALWAYS BE A LEGEND, BUT KOBE IS STILL BETTER.

  • @oneoverjordan23 Larry Bird is beter than kobe

  • Kobe sucks! This video isn't about Kobe. Larry Bird, is and always will be al legend! 33

  • @rjr27nh noone asked ur upinion retard

  • Kobe is 3rd in playoff scoring at 26 per, and will be 1st. Larry is 8th at 23 pts per.

  • shooting? kobe shot better 3pt % in the playoffs, teamwork and passing, larry only average 1 assist more, thats a wash on better passer.  rebounding? larry has an advantage. handles? larry has more turnovers. defence? kobe 9 all team def, larry 0. offence? kobe #1, larry number 27 soon to be 30th. clutch? lol. kobe 36 gamewinning shot, larry 20 maybe. i know jordan has 27. kobes better!

  • they would kill larry one on one,  larry is better than lebron (no rings), durant and wade are not better as well. but kobe is.

  • @oneoverjordan23 kobe could beat larry? thats funny because larry was the best player to ever play basketball and sont tell me jordan.

    What can kobe do better than larry? dunk.

    Can he shoot threes better? no.

    Does he have more teamwork? no.

    Passing? no.

    Rebounding? no

    And is he more clutch? no.

  • neither kobe, lebron, kevin durant, dwayne wade can beat larry bird

  • and larry turnovers were horrible, kobe eill pick him apart and destroy larry one on one

  • larrys shooting in the finals wad the best either, in fact kobe shot better from the 3 pt line as well in the playoffs. overall larry rebounded and passed better. Barely better passer. Only 1 assist apart. plus kobe is 3 times a better offencive player. Number 1 vs number 30 in 4 years.

  • i love larry

  • Larry is a legend. 3x mvp. multi allstar, hof, master, of that slingshot jumper. he and magic save the nba. why did the nba needed to be saved?
