Schooling dudes with a bad back. I like the Willis Reed he pulled returning from a broken orbital bone and shutting up the Pacers. Larry Bird played hurt. He's not a pansy like these load management turds we have today.

Yeah, I always read this site while I do load management. 💥

I can just barely remember the Colonels from the ABA. After they folded I liked the Sixers with Dr J and Doug Collins. I sorta liked the Bullets with Kevin Grevey and Wes Unseld. After that I liked the Celtics until Bird and them retired and since then I don't care much for it.

Detroit Pistons when Prince played. The block on Reggie Miller was epic; will never forget that game.

...who was your favorite NBA team?

The only team I ever liked more than a couple years was the 80s Celtics. Never liked the Lakers. Liked the Bulls when they were trying to get over the hump but then got sick of them. Never cared for Golden State.

I kind of liked these Mavericks until Doncic showed his true colors this series. Ever since half the teams in the league had at least one UK player I just started pulling for those players. I hope Reed and Rob go to good teams.

Just curious, but what "true colors" did Doncic show?

He's healthy enough to play on one end of the floor, but has completely checked out on the other.

Bulls all day for me, it was impossible not to be with WGN and Jordan as a kid.

The most badass Larry highlight is when he’s driving the ball, on some european in the olympics. And as he’s doing it he’s laughing and lays it in.

With a bad back and he can hardly move lol. Bird has the best stories hands down of any player I’ve heard. The amount of crap he talked and backed up is legendary.
