Bird and Magic may be the two greatest TEAM players ever in a team sport. Bird was able to elevate a team, Indiana State, that had no other future NBA players to a 33-0 record heading into the NCAA finals. Magic took a team, MSU, to the finals with two other pros in Jay Vincent and Greg Kelser and got the win. Magic was the ultimate point guard and Bird was the ultimate forward, they were both so great and fun to watch. 🏀💪

This is a truly remarkable interview. Imagine if it was 1984, and Magic was trying to say, "Larry, can you take us through your thought process as we play against each other in the Finals?" Bird would have just looked at Magic in stony silence. ("I didn't want to be friends with him. I was trying to beat him!") So this is an important document in their evolution not just as players, but as people. Both Larry and Magic seem to have learned that there is life beyond the basketball court.
