Larry Bird is Widily Seen As One of the Best 10-15 NBA PLAYERS of All Time.
That said, Basketball Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman ONCE MADE A Shocking Statement (About Bird) When He did an interview with Vladtv A few years ago.
Rodman: “If Larry Bird Played in this Era, I Think He’d Be in EUROPE … No Way. [Jokic] Is Way Better.
Many Fans at the Time Were in Major Disagrement with Rodman’s Comments (H/T Ball Don’t Lie).
Dennis Rodman Said Larry Bird Wald Be in EuropE if he was playing toy …
WONDER if He Felt that Way when they were going head-t-had 🤨
