Nothing new but pretty entertaining. Promoting the new book.
Conan: "For a number of years your main goal was to knock out Magic's teeth - is that not true?"
Larry: "I always thought they'd look good in my trophy case."

Re: Bird & Magic on Conan
Those were the days. Whats funny, even though I was a Laker fan my favorite player use to be Barkley back then nobody else. I always wished Barkley came to LA and played alongside Magic but it never happened.

Re: Bird & Magic on Conan
Awesome, I always hated to love magic but I could not resist. His respect for our team was top notch he wanted to kill us during game time but had respect so in turn I as a fan did the same, if only the Fakers were like that now. I can't stand bigger than the game attitude ala: Iverson, kobe, methbary, T.O., Ray Lewis, etc...
The only fakers I have respect for are Walton,Fisher,and sometimes Odom.
Could you imagine if bird played alongside of magic in the nba(I know the dream team was a small sample)

Re: Bird & Magic on Conan
I gotta say this but if it's one Celtic I RESPECT it's Larry Bird. The main thing I respect about him is he's a realist, he's not going to sugar coat nothing for the media or players. That's why he was a hell'va coach also.

Re: Bird & Magic on Conan
Awesome interview 

Who would win one-on-one in HORSE?
Bird: Nobody beats me in H-O-R-S-E. Besides, Magic cant shoot.
Magic: Larry, you'd have no chance against me one-on-one. I've got too many ways to beat you. Plus, as slow as I am, I'm still faster than you.
