This is one of my favorite videos of Bird:

Bird scores 60 on Atlanta

The best parts are 4 minutes in, when the Hawks bench starts going crazy for Bird.

I laughed when he shot the short jumper at the end of the game just to get 60.

Larry Bird is Steph Curry with more feel....? That video just blew my mind.

"Nobody played him! He just dribbled the ball and froze everybody and everybody just ran away from Larry Bird!"

Yes indeed

Huh...that was actually in 1984/85 season when Atlanta played a string of games in New Orleans as home games for some reason.

You had that game where Bird went insane, and then several weeks later you had Chicago come to town and Jordan as a rookie and Wilkins went nuts. Thankfully I had talked my dad into taking me to that game! Awesome...
