What exactly are you holding against Bird, then, that you're not holding against Magic? His skin colour? His perceived lack of athleticism? (That never hurt him) Originally Posted by DMAVS41

i'm not holding anything against bird...well, maybe some of his playoff/finals performances...but that happens to everyone. Originally Posted by WillC

just my opinion though. totally cool with differing opinions, but this is what makes my list..."my list"....magic is one of my top 3 players ever. i'd pick him 3rd in a draft to start a franchise after mj and russell. i'd pick bird 8th.

Re: Which players have case for GOAT in the NBA History?
Why is Larry Bird always ranked below Magic?
Back in the 80's, it was a really a tight debate about the best player in the game back then. Larry is seriously overlooked..

Re: Which players have case for GOAT in the NBA History?
Everyone in the top 5 has a case for GOAT but Jordan to me is just a tier higher than everyone else. There's just no strong argument you can use to contradict his case as GOAT, everybody else had a weakness.
