    Bottom line, Larry Bird was a cold blooded, bad ass, hooping machine.

    and within a few shots he could tell the refs that the rim was a few fractions of an inch off.

    that's badass!

    I doubt at this point Larry was complaining about the rim being a fraction of an inch off. As you mentioned earlier though, I guess this is neither here nor there.

    Most of us (heck, most NBA players) probably would have thought they were having an off night shooting the ball. The sheer magnitude of ego, self-confidence and precision in these legends is just unbelievable.

    But he'd still be a scrub in today's NBA, according to NBA Dish.

    Next up: The edge of the driveway ball returner. Nothing worse than the ball hitting the edge of the driveway and rolling all the way down the freaking street.

    I was wondering the same. I'd love to try it out though.
