Goated Pasty White Boi

Greatest white player to ever touch an NBA court
3
Forget that, he's up there for being the best to ever do it period. Kareem said he was the best he ever played against, Magic said the same, LeBron put him in his top 3. There's a reason Jordan didn't get anywhere in the 80s, and that was Bird's Celtics. He was able to do everything with intangibles most don't have. I don't like claiming anyone as the "GOAT", too many variables to consider. But, if I was putting up a starting 5 All-Time, you can guarantee Bird is in there.

He is indeed a very all around player, imo isn't better than kareem and MJ but I understand your argument. Larry bird is underappreciated
0
I'm not claiming he necessarily was better. All three of those guys played very different positions and excelled at different parts of basketball. There comes a point when talking about players, truly great ones, where you are just nitpicking. I'm not really going to argue with anyone who says Kareem, LeBron, MJ, Tim Duncan, Wilt, Magic, Kobe, etc. are the best player of all time. It's impossible to quantify that. I would only say that Bird belongs with those guys as much as anyone else in that group does.

Shot IQ is wayyy too low
2
what does shot IQ even do
8
Don’t quote me on this but I think it only affects the ai so it doesn’t matter at all in multiplayer since you can’t offball on offense lol
Show 3 replies...2
It was meant as a dig at 2k since Larry Legend might be the smartest player to ever exist. I still think it might affect the way players run plays and their overall awareness on the court. Sometimes players don't pop out to the 3 pt line after calling for a fade or cut to the paint when they are wide open
2
I got what you meant but that’s one of those stats where I’m like “hold up what actually is that” because 2k doesn’t bother explaining it. You’re prolly right though that makes sense
2
Very true. Too many times throughout a game, players will make super weird decisions like to not catch the ball when it is in THEIR HANDS lol or run out of bounds for no reason and so on. Really frustrating and I think that is where the off/def consistency come into play

His 3's always get blown up but he was a 37% career 3 shooter, and only made 649 in his career, putting him at #221 on the all time 3 list.

His career was cut short due to back injuries also they didn't use the 3pt line that much back then. His ratings can be based on his legendary 3pt contest wins and work ethic
0
There's 8 people in the 50-40-90 club (50% field goals, 40% three, 90% free throw shooting): Reggie Miller, Malcolm Brogdon, Stephen Curry, Mark Price, Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Durant, Steve Nash & Larry Bird. Only two have managed to achieve this in multiple seasons, one was Nash and the other was Bird.

Larry Bird is a freak!! He used to taunt defenders and tell them when and where he was going to shoot, and drain it.

His playmaking and passing accuracy is way to low. Bird is LITERALLY one of the BEST passing SF of all time. PLEASE just google larry bird passing and watch all the amazing compilations of his passing abilities. Only 80s yet he still has HOF flashy passer and gold dimer and lob city passer. Oh well. Love Bird. Great card. And while i definitely want it, my team is stacked and dont need him.
-2
His passing stats are that low so that there is at least some kind of weakness

Seriously yall.... dump all my MT into larry or wait for KD? I dont see KDs defence being this good, but 2k plays make believe every year after January.... ugh decisions
0
I’d wait for KD. I bought him after not packing him. Keeping him for Galaxy Opal Blake though
0
I wish I could get all 5... I have lebron and larry and even if I sold my whole collection probably wouldn't have enough for AD

I bought him for 299,000 and dont regret it at all... trust larry on defence more than kd, plus Larry's release is soaking wet

Passing rating is a bit too low for Larry, but other than that, great card.
He's going to be mad overpriced, though...

Am really surprised they gave Bird HOF defensive stopper. Especially considering that wasn’t one of Bird’s strong suites.

Plenty people have op teams, just because your team is TRASH doesn't mean everyone's is.

That’s my team too basically - 8 out of the same 13 players. Sorry that’s not so unbelievable. Personally I have PD Shaq, D Josh Smith, D Rashard Lewis, D Tatum and D Klay instead of Yao, Dominique, Wade, Oscar and Melo. Otherwise the same. I just really like Tatum and Klays release over say Melo and Josh Smith is my favorite card this year. Waiting for Durant to swap out Rashard

Durant's total stats will be higher guaranteed. Hell be op at D

Show 5 replies...Bird has 151 more total stats than KD. He's got Speed and Contact Dunk on Bird, that's it.Plus, Bird is a far better defender, especially in the block.
I'm glad 2K got this right, because Bird was a better player than the Snake.
Fact man, I was just looking at KD he didnt get a crazy upgrade

they are going to have different stats but kd will have a better mid range than bird but bird will have better 3
Yeah but I’m just saying, Bird is better than KD and it’s be kinda disrespectful to give KD a higher overall
Cool can't wait to see opal griffin
How did this get so much likes
I don’t know but hey, it’s cool that you did get this many

Luka Doncic is already better than Larry Bird ever was.
Your tweaking Larry bird was one of the most well rounded players of all time he was a creative passer good finisher amazing shooter great defense could rebound had a post game luka is just a good ball handler even though recently he had a game with 9 turnovers

Bro stop being so gay
Luka is great, but it's too much hype around him, that makes him a little bit overrated. It's too early to comprise him with Larry.
- Reply
Show 2 replies...quit hatin on bird and luka. Luka is a rookie chill out, and no one has been giving luka any crazy attention like he had a few months ago. Luka is in no way shape or form overrated as of right now.
It's too early EVEN to comprise him with Larry.
