  • I cry when i watch this

    The NBA is shit today...it died in the mid 90s

  • THIS WAS BASKETBALL, you have to take a hit or two in a contact game to really get into it...

    now, even the f***ing crowds look dull... no passion at all... just dollar signs everywhere...

  • Larry even looks like a bird lol 

  • there are no more true champions like magic,bird and jordan, today players play for diamonds and not pride and honor...the lockout is a great proof of that..great documentary by the way..

    

  • @berserkur7 Then realize that Steve Nash or Dirk Nowitzki received the MVP Award each year from 2005-2007 and you might see how off-base you happen to be.

    By the way, James Worthy, Byron Scott, and Michael Cooper were much faster and more athletic than most players now and Danny Ainge proved athletic enough to play in both the NBA and in MLB. And the game was much more physical in those days, as seen in this video.

  • @rrrjjjmmm100 Johnny Most is basketball; you belong on Oxygen or BRAVO or some female network.

  • @AceroySangre Wow. you wrote that two years ago, and I couldn't agree more.

  • @AceroySangre 1998 isn't mid 90s lol

  • fucking now you touch someone and you get a foul.... wtf?

  • DAm. All the elbows and shoves they be doing back then. The NBA now is all pussed out

  • Wow this must've been so fucking intense!

  • @dcc1980

    I know and Cooper was a hell of a defensive player!! But I just laugh about it because I'm a Celts fan and this rivalry is so heated and you don't see stuff like that often and just made it funny. But I def. agree w/ Bird on praising good defenders you have to respect them because they're working 2x as hard to guard u.
