dennis-rodman-attacked-larry-bird-and-assured-that-he-would-be-“playing-in-europe”-in-current-basketball

Despite having retired from the NBA for more than 23 years, Dennis Rodman continues to be a controversial figure and this was once again evident with the latest statements to the media made by the American basketball player.

“El Loco” spoke with Vlad TV and attacked the legendary Larry Bird after he said he could defeat LeBron James one on one. “If Larry Bird played in this era, I think he would be in Europe,” the five-time NBA champion said.

“He would be somewhere over there (Europe). His game fit for Boston at that time in the ’80s and things like that, but in today’s world, there’s no way. I’m not despising him because he was a great player at the time like I was, but I say there’s no way,” Rodman continued about “Birdman,” a three-time NBA champion with the Celtics (1981, 1984, and 1986).

In that sense, Rodman said that Serbian Luka Doncic, who recently won the NBA title with the Denver Nuggets after taking the finals against the Miami Heat, is “much better” than Larry Bird.

Despite these declarations of the winner of the championship ring on two occasions with the Detroit Pistons (1989 and 1990) and three with Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls (1996,1997 and 1998), Larry Bird’s career in football is undeniable. nba.

Detroit beat the Celtics three of the four playoff series they met between 1988 and 1991. Dennis Rodman also beat Bird in the 1998 Finals when the three-time MVP was coaching the Indiana Pacers.
