- In the trainer’s lap. Bird was in peak f*ck you mode when the Celtics travelled to play the Hawks late in the 1984-85 regular season. He poured in a career high (and Celtics record) 60 points, and incredibly, that wasn’t even the story that stands out in the minds of the players who were there that night.
- Bird torments a young Dennis Rodman. Even Dennis Rodman, one of the greatest defenders of all-time, was not immune to a classic Larry roasting. As a member of the Pistons early in his career, Rodman was guarding Bird when he scored four consecutive baskets on him.
- Who’s coming in second? When Bird arrived at Chicago Stadium to defend his back-to-back three-point titles in 1988, he looked around the locker room and asked, “So, who’s coming in second?”
- Bird destroys Craig Hodges. When Bulls guard Craig Hodges won the 1990 Three-Point Contest, one reporter asked him if there would be an asterisk next to his victory because he didn’t go against Bird, who had won the first three contests.
