@TheEphixx Just grayer.

@sg500 I agree Bird was great, but so was Isiah, Magic, Jordan, and Wilkens, regardless of skin color.
-
Pat Riley seems like a nice guy.
-
@sg500 I know that your comment is a year old but I fully agree with you. In fact, I'm going to emulate my game after his because he is just too damn good!!! And plus I'm so clumsy on the court as well!!!
-
Absolutely amazing stuff, go Larry Bird and Go Celtics..!!!
-
Well it's definitely debatable. Because Isiah's injuries clearly made all the difference for Detroit. That's why I posted the stats. The stats are more than just "my thinking"... these are the facts.

i dont think if isiah was injured or not it was the bulls yr
-
If Isiah hadn't been injured it might have been a 3-peat. P's were 33-13 (.720) when Isiah had to get season ending wrist surgery. They were 17-19 (.470) w/out him, but finished @ 50-32 (.610). Not at 100%, Isiah came back for the playoffs April 5, but in 2nd Rnd, he sprained his right foot in GM 1, vs Boston. He skipped GM 2 & GM 4, & came off the bench in GM 6 then took over in the 4th qt so P's could win it in 6 gms. But he & a few other P's were too banged up to beat Bulls (.744) that year.

I wish guys get off this racial crap. every basketball game i played and even when shooting a balled peice of paper in the waste basket i always called out bird. Especially when i shot it from far.

@sg500
Thank You, Im black as FUCK and I love Larry Bird. Larry Bird has the best fade away of all time. He went through a lot of tough shit, growing up. His dad committed suicide. Man, I got mad respect for Larry Bird.
