  1. I disagree the greatest athletes are white guys period. See how racist that sounds no one race is superior in anything some of the best athletes happen to be white just look at the record books in hockey football baseball boxing the only undefeated guy was white Rock Marciano the strongest man in competition the strongest guy is always white same goes for MMA and martial arts is Asian guys but white guys do good in that to quarterbacks the best are always white guys but their are good black guys too so it does not matter what race you are. I do not care about race but I hate bullshit the NBA had many Hall of Fame white players just look at the 50 greatest players in the 1997 ceremony lots of white guys there.

  2. Why is it okay to be racist towards white players they talk like good white players are rare bullshit. White players are great players just as good and in many many cases better than black players !!

  3. I did a spreadsheet of the all time greatest players for number of points and seasons, and what people don't realize is that some players played more seasons than Bird. Larry bird played 13 seasons, so if you were to take all of the top 20 players for points scored over their career and only did the first 13 seasons, as some players had 18+ years, the "tale of the tape" may be way more surprising than you think. Something I will be doing soon.

  4. Do you think 30 years after Lebron retires that other players will be talking about him like the players that played against Larry Bird? LB was, is and will always be a LEGEND for a reason. I know folks like to crown players as the GOAT, heck even some players like to crown themselves the GOAT. That title is not given or placed on themselves. It is earned with blood, sweat, and broken bones. Larry Bird is in the GOAT discussion because he earned it, not because he did something special and tag himself the GOAT. Larry Bird doesn't have to talk about how great he was, he just has to sit back and let all of his opponents do it for him.

  5. My favorites Bird story is when Boston was playing Utah. Bird was lighting them up and as he jogged past Utah's bench, he asked Frank Layden Frank, don't you got anybody on the bench that can guard me? Cuz nobody out here can. Layden looked down his bench and just said No. Hilarious!

  6. None of the black dudes wanted to cover him because they would have gotten used also. And they knew it. James worthy and Michael Cooper being the exceptions.

  7. To me, Bird is the ultimate GOAT in basketball, because, he's not only doing everything well, but the most clutch player ever, and, WITHOUT much athletic ability, while you see him diving on the floor & fiercely competitive. I'd say, he's even more "God-like" transformed into a basketball player than Jordan.

  8. When you're playing CHESS like Bird was …. and these assorted athletes ran their mouths, bitched about his "TALKING TRASH" …. you knew they had Checkers mentality …. and Larry was using PSYCHOLOGY – not trash talk on them. Successfully !

  9. Why compare anybody to Larry byrd ??????? WHY????? There's only ONE Larry byrd!!!! (And there's only on magic Johnson!!!!!!!) One pistol Pete marovich… there will never be another Larry byrd, NEVER
