Of course it is Larry Bird. good article in the athletic, even if some of the stories will be familiar to many of us.
I would think the glove would need to be pretty high on this listOf course it is Larry Bird. good article in the athletic, even if some of the stories will be familiar to many of us.

I'm obsessed with Bird. Easily one of the best players ever and yet I'm left wondering how much better he actually could've been if he wasn't such a hard worker and paid for someone else to pave his mom's driveway instead of doing it himself. At 28 years old he had a back injury that would've ended most players careers and he continued to dominate the league despite being partially crippled.
He also broke a finger playing softball that he states hurt his shooting significantly.I'm obsessed with Bird.

Also hurt his finger in a bar fight which screwed up his shooting in the finals.He also broke a finger playing softball that he states hurt his shooting significantly.
How does Larry Bird get in a bar fight? I am a pretty big guy and when I run into Larry around town, he is always even bigger than I remembered. Just massive. The only other person I've met in person that struck me as being as large as Larry is Charles Oakley. The last thing I or any other mere mortal should do is pick a fight with a guy of that size.Also hurt his finger in a bar fight which screwed up his shooting in the finals.
Agree, it’s like just playing basketball at the pro level wasn’t enough of a challenge for him.The game he decided to play left-handed at Portland was pretty epic.
