Magic was the only one who could defeat Larry Bird. Magic had the team that could stop Larry. They had Cooper, Whorty, Green and the best ilegal defense in the league (courtesy of Mr. Riles). Magic was the only one that Bird didn`t had the mentallity edge over. Bird had a lot of respect on Magic`...

What a game! Magic doing it again at the garden.

this game is from the 1989/90 nba season

Most elegant dunker of all-time

Most powerful dunker i`ve seen

You`re absolutely right BigTimePride. Bird thrived playing against the best athletes in the league. Bird was and is Mr Basketball. Nobody comes close in nowdays.

Bird and Magic played the game the way the game slhould be played.The biggest difference between them and the new wave of basketball superstars are the fundamentals. The ball always travel faster than the athlete.

Man you have mr. Bird`s best videos on the net! Larry Bird was tough as nails. In a time when Besketball was made for men. Mr Larry was the MAN. There`ll never be another Larry Bird. I was fortunate enough to see him play in his prime. There was nobody better.I just wish that his body didn`t brea...

Thomas was one of the best players in the history of the game. In its time he was going head to head against Bird, Magic and Michael.

Larry Bird on his prime was unbelievable. Pure genius. I loved watching him play. He used every inch of talent that he had. Only Magic was his equal in terms of basketball IQ. But Bird was more crafty than Jonhson.

Larry Bird is Basketball

I remember in 1990 all the hype concerning the televised nation wide one on one match up between Magic and Jordan. David Stern wouldn`t allowed it but looking back those were good old days discussing with your friends who would have won.

What a ball game! What an incredible series! And a super Bird on the crunch time!

The most efficient scorer of the 80`s. English scored more points than any player during that time

One of the greatest athletes of all-time

Lebron has all the skills and athletic abilities but he does not have the Magic Johnson`s heart. That`s the main difference.

Magic Johnson and Larry Bird are much better players than Lebron James and Kobe Bryant. You cannot compare these players with Bird and Magic. Their basketball IQ his miles above anyone today.

Mr Moore you had the world in your fingertips. Maybe one day they`ll finally realize how great you were

Bill Walton:"Barkley is Basketball, just like Bird and Magic they do everything".

That`s absolutelly true reno93535. People tend to argue that today players would destroy the 80`s and 90`s teams. Its not the speed of the player that counts here nor the the thousand ways that he can dunk. Its the team play, chemistry, knowledge of the game. For instance Jordan was an incredible...

You`re absolutely right Defender80s. Barkley along with Elgin Baylor are the two best players not to win a ring in the history of the league.

You`re absolutly right.

Bird was a the king lion defending its pride. Nobody gave more to the game than Bird. His hustle is unmatched.

Those Larry Bird ball fakes are legendary. This is Larry Bird at his best. Untouchable when healthy. He was the Bobby Fischer of basketbal no doubt it. Nice to see a young Charles Barkley, one of the greatest athletes of all time.

It`s so frustrated to read that today`s basketball player is better player than twenty years ago. Well there are a lot of players that can dunk in more ways today than they back then. The handling skills are a little better. But the fundamentals are gone, the team play is also missing and the he...
