Larry Bird debate

[-NoQuarter-]

Aldridge is a beast. Morrison is the next Larry Bird.

he's the next overrated white boy? Great. [smilie=2thumbsup.g:

Anyone who calls Larry Bird overrated either never saw him play or has a racial bias. You cannot argue with stats, rings, and just having seen the man play. He's one of the greatest of all time.

Calling him overrated because he was white is beyond stupid.

Those teams were great. From what i saw he sucked on defense and is not one of the greatest ever. Throw the race card out all you want, Or call me bias because of my lack of fondness in his ability to be a prick even today. Try to put whatever extra words you wanna try in my mouth. But on a generral consesnsus he's considered a top 5 all time player and he's not top ten in my book. Bad? No. Average? No. great player in his day? Yep. Great team around him? Yep. All time great? Nope. And in fact the celtics werent even a threat to win a title after those other pieces started falling off the Clover.

Bird had a great run. But he's an overrated white boy. Maybe you guys rate him lower than most. Maybe you dont. Either way doesnt matter to me.

As far i was concerned shutting McHale down was more important when playing the celtics. I've seen these fuckheads in action and the idea that it was about Bird being so great is bs to me. They laid out some good pieces to that team. and once those pieces started to vanished they werent a threat and Bird was irrelevent. But some im sure are gonna blame his injuries.

Have i struck a nerve in the Bird slighted society? I already know Permy likes to skew things down to a season. Maybe a game if he thinks he can get away with it. Deny it, but once again a long term basis discussion is brought up and you go hunting for an in particular season to suit your point. Maybe its just coincidence. [smilie=2thumbsup.g:

LOL @ ME SKEWING THINGS TO A SEASON!!!

Marion doesn't deserve MVP because of his 6th grade team in 1992-Gutz

Yeah, grabbing 10 boards per game on a team with McHale and Parrish must be cake.

Jerry Rice was only good because of Montanta and Craig. Overrated

Shaq always has a great sidekick guard. Overrated.

You spew more dumb than everyone on real GM combined. Well, I'll give you cow. (insert stupid little smiley I use after I make a lame joke)

Jerry Rice performed under various scenarios with various teams as did shaq. So you are way off and pretty much should think before you post.

Do we need to revisit the marion debate that you aggravated yourself on. because you had nothing to prove that he's was the vital piece that keeps Phoenix afloat?

Either way spend more time thinking on your posts. Less time with LOL (for a guy who throws out cheap shots about someone being stupid, you really threw a dumb one at me)

[-NoQuarter-]

There's not a single intelligent argument you can make in trying to disprove Larry Bird's greatness. This is quickly going to turn into a LOL @ Rorshach thread.

[Hermy]

Yeah, and Rice played football too. Way off. Thats brilliant. Great point. So if Bird had played with Jordan and won titles you would be sucking him off, but you don't believe he would have?

I'll think more about writing at a 5th grade level for you.

Please don't revisit the Marion debate, you can't write. Less from you is more.
