7 Stories That Prove Larry Bird Was The Greatest Trash Talker Of All Time

I agree with that ranking. As far as beating tough teams to win the title I buy the lakers but got the rocketa twice, including a 40 win team. Not his fault lakers choked though. I'd put him 1st team with magic, Jordan, lebron and I guess Kareem although center is tough with Russell, wilt and even Shaq up there for me.

But he had to beat the Bad Boys Pistons & Doc’s Sixers to get outta the East. If not for Bird & Magic those early 80s Sixers teams would’ve won 3-4 titles, IMO. The Pistons were elite the two years before they finally beat Boston.
