I used to own some old VHS tapes of Larry Bird. (They unfortunately no longer work anymore.
.)
One of them had Larry Bird against Portland. Right before the game, they were in a huddle, where players were talking with Bird, and a few of them were leaving the huddle shaking their heads.
Bird proclaimed that he was 'bored,' and was going to just play left handed all game.
He scored 47 PPG and 11 RPG, and 11 APG. He had literally all the opponents doubling him, and one point in 3Q, he did one of the craziest running hook shots from 14 feet that I've ever seen.
Bird could get any shot he wanted, his defense man on man was never excellent, but he was awesome at weakside/team defense. If Bird had been in this era, I think he would've been better than LeBron or KD.
