If we play it subjectively, I'll grant that Bird (then) would not be a Superstar today. By that standard, neither would most of the Hall of Fame. But, Larry Bird THEN would not be a scrub today. To believe otherwise, means you didn't watch much NBA (back then) or know much about it (back then)."Time to nut up or shut up"-Tallahassee

This article helps to put some things in perspective. For the record, I don't think any of the players mentioned in this thread are not worthy players or future "the best evers", only that you just can not compare today to back then.

he was the best player and leader of a team that won 3 championships. just cause there are not many white nba'ers today doesn't mean he would play like adam morrison now. if it wasn't for bird and magic the nba might of when under back then. give credit where credit is due.Comment

This whole idea of putting a sports star from yesteryear up against todays players is just sorta silly. You need to judge a player for what he/she did in their era.
I mean, you could take almost ANY athlete from 30+ years ago and say they couldn't hold up to todays standards. Sport has evolved. Different training, different methods, different impact on culture, different business as well. There are too many variables at work here. Do you think Babe Ruth could play in today's MLB just as he was in the 1920's? Yet he's one of the greatest of all time.
Larry Bird is one of the greatest basketball players of all time. Easily a top ten choice. Period.Comment

w/e you guys don't get it.
Todays players are just better and that's all I'm saying. I'm not saying he wasn't good back then or disputing what he's done."Time to nut up or shut up"-Tallahassee

Who's better - Bird,Magic, Jordan, Lebron, Kobe - is very subjective. All I was saying is when you talk about that top level of all time, Lebron and Kobe will be up there with the other three. We can argue about the exact order all day - but those five names will always be up at the top.
That is until the next superior human athlete comes along in 5 years or so...............Comment
