[QUOTE=navy]He wouldnt improve the defense.....
Entire team was slow to rotate. Bird certainly would not have been much better and would no have been able to switch onto Parker.
They probably get swept.[/QUOTE]
[B]He probably would've... Bird's team defense was great and better than LeBron's, at the very least in those Finals. He wouldn't be able to switch onto Parker but his team defense could be easily more impactful than such a thing. Big-like impact too, and great impact.
Bird also brought considerably better rebounding, plus agressiveness, physicality, and hustle... That's also major.
Larry also didn't need to overhandle the ball and have teammates play away from their strengths and playing style. He was better off-ball too, and at setting up plays/players with smarter basketball, no wasted motion and little ball-stopping.
Plus a better post-game, and passing out of the post, always big in the playoffs.
Game1 was still close at the end when LeBron cramped out... Bird in the "same situation" had a monster game and was really clutch while the C's won.
They probably win 2/3 games.

Larry Bird for sure. He did it for his original franchise while Lebron had to join forces with a proven champion in Wade. Also Bird won a title without being down 3-2 in a series.

I go with Bird.[/QUOTE]
