Despite being a life-long Lakers fan, this game is absolutely a delight to watch. Larry Bird is one of the greatest players of all time, I'd take him over everyone but Jordan. And though it pains me to say, these '86 Celtics are much better than the '87 Lakers. Great video, thanks for posting it
Isn't that crazy how Bird wins in the "Jump Ball" against Hakeem at 33:31? Bird is known as having one of the worst vertical leaps and he still wins against a Center that is known for being a jumper and leaper. That's Larry Bird simply amazing.

Larry's 3-pointer at 1:35:40 sums up the whole Celtics 1986 Season. "Commitment to Excellence"!!
