It's April 3rd.
This is Boston Celtics News Today, driven by AI, your team nonstop.
Some folks, like Lakers, coach JJ Reddick, claim legends from past eras like Larry
Bird couldn't hang in today's NBA.
But that's straight cap.
Bird revolutionized the game with his early love for the 3-point shot and that genius,
basketball IQ.
Bird, the Hick from Frenchlic, made Threese a weapon before it was cool, dominating those
all-star shootouts back in the day.
His relentless drive and smarts would fit any speed, any rules.
Basketball heads are pushing back hard on this old school disrespect, especially Celtic
fans who know Bird's fire.
Execs and players alike say his style translates perfectly to modern pace.
Former point guard Jeff Teague laid it out clear.
Larry Legend would light up the league right now, no question, with his scoring touch
and court.
Fission.
Bottom line.
Bird's game was ahead of its time, proving eras don't define greatness.
He'd feast today just like he did then.
