In 1986, Larry Bird decided to play left-handed against the Blazers and “save his right hand” for the Lakers two nights later.
He finished with:
◽️ 47 PTS, 14 REB, 11 AST
◽️ 10 of 21 FG made lefty
That was a bad man.

Before the 1988 3-Point Contest, Larry Bird had a question for everyone he was competing against:
“Who’s coming in second?”
Bird won in his warm-up jacket and celebrated before the last shot went in.
Larry Legend.
