Larry Bird proved that you didn't need to be at all athletic to dominate in basketball as a perimeter player.
Larry did not have the quickest first step or an incredible vertical jump. Larry Bird was not “layup line impressive”: Looking at him, you probably wouldn't think much until the game started. Larry Bird was a cold, calculating competitor who loved to talk trash to his opponents and then back up every word he said. In his career, he went at it with everyone from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to Magic Johnson to Michael Jordan. Larry won 3 NBA Championships and was the clear #1 player on all three teams. A bad back forced him into a premature retirement, but not before Larry Bird had established himself as one of the 10 greatest players of all time.
