FACT OF THE DAY
Larry Bird got 67 percent of all the MVP votes
...between the year 1980 to 1989! [IMG alt=""]https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t5/1/16/1f92f.png[/IMG][IMG alt=""]https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t5/1/16/1f92f.png[/IMG][IMG alt=""]https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t5/1/16/1f92f.png[/IMG]
Bird literally had 2/3 of all the MVP votes, for a whole decade. He played with Magic, MJ, Kareem, Dr J, Moses etc in those years!

Man, young folks don't know how good prime Bird was

Bird and Magic saved the NBA…

Loved the duels between the Celtics and Lakers in the mid-to-late 1980s.

I remember appealing to Sportsman's Park management to reserve a few televisions for the broadcast of the NBA Finals.

I wanted to play the harness races at Sportsman's Park and enjoy the hoop action at the same time.

The request fell on deaf ears in 1984.

I finally broke down and bought one of those mini-TVs that were popular back in the day.
