Bird led the Celtics to the largest single season turnaround in NBA history. That's why he won rookie of the year. He truly was a team basketball player.

@knowatimean Tiny was a decent player but he wasn't having a good season. Both Cowens and Pistol Pete were old and at the end of the careers. I mean you can say the Celtics had Hall of Famers but they obviously weren't doing shit because they finished last. Bird came in as a rookie and brought them to the Eastern Conference Finals. He brought the biggest single season turnaround in NBA history without Parish or McHale Magic had the league MVP...Kareem. Bird did more with less his rookie year.

I couldn't resist, I looked up your IP address too, then watched you from the satellite on google. You're the dude with the Nazi outfit and pictures of Hitler painted on your van? In your previous life you were a soldier in the confederate army, and owned slaves? I'm embarassed to be the same skin color as u is what I am. I never saw anything like your sick rant anywhere on the internet. In all seriousness, seek help, any kind you can get. Yeeeeeeesh ur one scary motherfucker.

[TheFDrScAnLoN]

I don't quite understand who's is who, but the dude who used the racist epithet is the true moron. Yeh, I am a Larry Bird man myself, but you make me embarassed to be one. Bird himself wouldn't want you rooting for him. What difference does color make--even dogs don't worry about what color they are, but you do, and that makes you more stupid than a dog. What I hope for is you to make it to your "colored" enemy's house, and he blows your brains out. That's if u don't have a stroke first, sicko
