This whole sequence is :banderas: the behind the back pass from bird,the left hand bounce pass from henderson and the left hand reverse



:comeon: Pippen didn't make 1st team defense until birds last year in the nba.Before that pippen was a young player who was on the rise you're acting like bird faced a prime defensive pippen

You can't be serious with that last comment

What's not serious? That I'm not surprised a 10-11 year vet schooled a young player who wasn't known as a defensive stopper at that point in his career?

:comeon:

You know Scottie P was balling defensively before 92....What about those pistons squads during the 80s...? That had Mahorn, Laimbeer, and eventually Rodman.. Bird wasn't dropping 26 and 8 on them..?

What I was saying was pippen wasn't the good/great defender he became YET So bird killin him wasn't a surprise he was solid on defense but not a player who anyone expected to contain to a 3x mvp and 9-10 year vet and I think bird would of thrived today I'm not taking nothing away from him.Now pippen in 92-97 vs prime bird woulda been a dope match up

This thread belongs in the bushes. How dare y'all disrespect the great Larry Bird, who is one of the best to ever lace up a pair of basketball kicks. One star and neg rep to the OP. This thread is blasphemy.

Yall ever seen Larry play? He dominated in a more physical NBA, he'd be roasting dudes in this touch foul league.

He could create his own shot. He wasn't some Adam Morrison nikka. It's straight up insulting to suggest Bird wouldn't do well in this league.
