Bird is better
He played in toughest era ever
He played vs historically great defenses
With real rules basketball .
His era didnt watch players score or play lile todays era.
His shot was terrific
His defense was very good
The conferences he played in were stacked
His rivals were all time greats who
Were tremendously well rounded.
You add in that Bird wasnt on PeDs and todays athletes are more so than not. The NBA doesnt test topnplayers for PeDs that make you run faster jump higher or strengthen up or rexover quicker.
Thw NBA is much like boxingbin which they dont even care and dont wanna catch the stars who take performance enhancers. You dont just get faster and jump higher at 33-33 years old.Last edited by Jc8804; 03-22-2018, 04:45 PM.
