Epic Jordan vs Bird Game - Larry Bird gets BULLIED & Michael Jordan DOMINATES!

Jordan vs Bird, 1 on 1, the dream match-up. They even made an old school video game about it. From a team comparison standpoint, the match-up did not happen under fair & even conditions in the playoffs. It could have, if lady luck wasn't on Larry's side with avoiding MJ in the playoffs from 1988 until he retired. Bird had an All-Star cast of teammates, and by the time Jordan was able to develop his young sidekicks (Pippen & Grant), Larry could no longer make deep runs in the playoffs. Larry wasn't there to pass the torch, he was gone fishing. This notion that Larry magically made his teams "better" than Michael made his teams, was and is still absolute nonsense. It's fairytale talk, that's welcomed from Larry Bird fans, because that's their guy. In reality though, Michael was the better athlete, defender, could create a wider variety of passes, and a better scorer. There really wasn't anything Larry Bird could do, that Michael couldn't do better, other than shoot 3's... and they didn't shoot many 3's in that era, so take that advantage with a grain of context. Jordan was always better. For further context on our stance with the greatest small forward of all time, Larry Bird: Larry was better than Magic because Larry was a better defender & Larry could hit a wider variety of shots from virtually anywhere on the court. Which means, if you remove Larry from his team, and remove Magic from his team, Larry would see more success because he can accomplish more on his own. Passers like Magic naturally rely more on the talent around them... but we added this legends comparison for context. We don't hate Larry Bird here, and respect his greatness... But he was NEVER on Jordan's level, he just brought the bigger tougher gang to the school yard for the throwdown after school. It was an unfair fight, and everyone knows it. Jordan might have won 72 games, in the 80's, with Larry Bird's supporting cast. We never saw MJ with a quality front line. How do you possibly beat that? Some might say MJ's 80's teammates had more success at handing him losses than his 1990's opponents. This Jordan vs Bird contest from 1988 would have been a frequent scene, in the playoffs, had Larry Bird not so luckily avoided MJ from '88 and on. Enjoy!
