@BuBisBack Maybe Kevin Love will be like a not as talented version.. Unathletic white guy from the sticks (Love's from Oregon) who works hard. Love doesn't have the basketball IQ though so he's really not like him at all.. but the closest we have to him for now lol.
@lasoogneypubes I think Dirk is closer. In playing style. Dirk like to curl out to the top of the key like Bird, pass good, and takes his man off the dribble. Dirk has the same fallaway jump shot and could shoot in the low post.
Imagine playing "P-I-G" or "H-O-R-S-E" against him? Or imagine just shooting around with him in an empty gym? How lights-out you think he'd have been, just messing around with the guys? Larry Legend! I was a teenager during the wonderful 80's...Celtics-Lakers, seemed like every June you could count on it. Fantastic basketball,two greats and their teams intertwined forever.
Bird had a rare talent, that made him special. He wasn't a big headed player, he wasn't a I want the ball all the time, and he had just the right mix of talent, speed, skill, and a pinch of luck, with a good cast, to make everyone better. Wish I could have seen him play live.
Larry was a better shooter from the outside, perimeter, and freethrow line, % will back this up. Was a much better passer and rebounder,% will back this up. He was actually a better scorer, yes scorer! Just because you avg. more points a game doesnt make you a better scorer. Jordan was a better defender on a 1-3, but the only thing Jordan was better at offensively was driving to the basket. Not to mention Jordan racked up all those stats and rings when the League was at its worst, watered down!

I'm not a Boston Celtics fan I'm a Dallas Mavericks but Larry was awesome. I think that Larry can still play in the NBA as a Dallas Maverick.
