[Personal History]

Bill Russell was born in 1934. He is 2.06 meters tall. He won the Olympic basketball gold medal in 1956 and won the NBA championship 11 times, including 8 consecutive championships once and 5 times. He was elected the NBA's Most Valuable Player and became the first black head coach in NBA history in 1967. Russell is the greatest defensive center in basketball history and entered the U.S. Basketball Hall of Fame in 1974.

Although Russell is not outstanding in height as a center, his physical fitness is very good: 100 meters in 10.06 seconds and 400 meters in 49 seconds. The high jump score was 2.09 meters. His explosive power is amazing and he can easily touch the top edge of the backboard. These have laid a good foundation for him to become an NBA superstar. However, more importantly, while studying at the University of San Francisco, a famous basketball school, Russell mastered the defensive concepts and techniques that would later change the face of basketball. The university's coach Renl Porter combined Russell's physical fitness with a very authoritative defensive theory, allowing Russell to lead the University of San Francisco team to a magical record of winning 55 consecutive games. He himself also has many Won the title of All-American Player of the Year.

In 1956, in order to participate in the Melbourne Olympics, Russell delayed joining the NBA for a year and led the U.S. men's basketball team to victory in eight games at the Olympics, beating opponents by an average of 53 points per game. After joining the NBA's Boston Celtics, Russell won 11 NBA championships. Among them, 8 consecutive championships were won. These two records are two peaks that cannot be surpassed by future generations. When defending, Russell always waits for his opponent to take a shot before taking off, then rises with the basketball, knocks the ball away like a volleyball dunk, or slaps it towards his frontcourt, allowing his teammates to launch quick moves. When he scored, he mostly grabbed offensive rebounds and made second tip-ins. His hook shot can go left and right, making it hard to guard against. In 1959, he and "Basketball Emperor" Chamberlain grabbed 35 rebounds in their first meeting in their lives. Grabbed 51 rebounds in a game against the Syracuse Nationals.

Russell, who won 11 championships with the Celtics in 13 years, said: "For me, one of the best things is watching a group of people work together and cheer each other up,* **We are moving towards the championship together; I have worked hard, my teammates have worked hard, and I think we have indeed succeeded."

Russell won the MVP award five times and was selected in 1970. He was selected to the NBA's 25th Anniversary All-NBA Team and in 1980 to the NBA's 35th Anniversary All-NBA Team. In the same year, he was voted the greatest player of this century by the Professional Basketball Writers Association of America. In 1998, he was selected as one of the top 50 players in NBA history.

Russell used his fabulous defensive talents and shot-blocking skills to change a basic concept of basketball - only focusing on offense and not on defense. His achievements tell people that championships can still be won with excellent defense. In 1967, Russell was appointed player-coach by the Celtics. Became the first black head coach in NBA history.

In 13 seasons with the Boston Celtics, From the 1979-80 season to the 91-92 season, Bird performed perfectly in all aspects of the court - whether as a scorer, a passer, a rebounder, a defender, A team core, or a key player. Bird is always so confident. As everyone knows, this guy will often waltz to the opponent's bench before a game and tell the opponent that he will score 40 points in the game. No one dares to take this as A joke. Bird was such a deadly shooter that he often deliberately closed his eyes when practicing three-pointers to achieve a training effect. In the era of Bird, perhaps only Magic Johnson did a better job of passing the ball. Magic is Bird's greatest enemy and a lifelong friend. The black-and-white rivalry between these two superstars in the 1980s has become an immortal NBA classic.

Bird is the embodiment of Celtic honor. He is a player who combines elegance, confidence, and diligence. He likes to meet challenges under pressure while helping his teammates do their best. Just like predecessors such as Bob Cousy, Bill Russell, John Havlicek and Dave Cowens, Bird also has a selfless team spirit flowing through him, which is more important than personal honors. , Bird is more concerned about how to help his teammates and the team perform at their best level. Compared with those legendary superstars of his predecessors, Bird was better at mobilizing the emotions of the fans at the Boston Garden and thus controlling the game.

As the key to the Celtics' rebuilding, Bird helped the club get rid of the poor results and depressed market in the late 1970s. The team became increasingly perfect under his leadership, winning three NBA championships and 10 Atlantic Division championships. While getting 3 rings, Bird also received numerous personal honors. He is the third player in NBA history to win three consecutive regular season MVP awards, and he is also the first non-center player to win this honor. He was selected to the All-Star team 12 times, became the Finals MVP twice, was selected to the NBA First Team 9 times, and was the league's free throw king four times.

For basketball, Bird is a stubborn perfectionist, which makes Boston fans and many followers of orthodox basketball regard him as an idol. He has extraordinary vision on the court and can often make incredible long-range shots of 35ft+ under the strict defense of his opponents, which fascinates the fans.

"Larry Bird changed the taste and philosophy of an entire generation of basketball fans in appreciating the NBA." When Bird won the Barcelona Olympic basketball gold medal with the Dream Team in 1992, he had to retire due to a back injury. At that time, league president David Stern made such a high evaluation of him.

Bird’s legend begins in a small town called French Lick, where he was born, adjacent to the corn producing areas of Indiana, where his family lived a simple life. The small town of French Lick*** has a population of 2,059. Every time the local Springs Valley High School has a home men’s basketball game, the vast majority of the people in the town go to watch the game and pay tribute to a blond man named Larry Bird. The young man cheers.

Although Bird had to miss most of the season due to an ankle injury during his sophomore year at Springs Valley High School, he still became a rising star that everyone paid attention to. As Springs Valley went 19-2, young Larry became a minor local celebrity.

Although the Birds can't afford their own car yet, fans in town are happy to give them a lift. In Bird's senior year, he set a new school scoring record. When he last attended the school's home game, about 4,000 fans came to cheer him on.

Bird later found that it was much more difficult to adapt to college life. He initially chose Indiana University, a famous basketball school with NCAA legendary coach Bobby Knight, but he left after only two days. . He then returned to his hometown, Northwood Junior College, but soon left again, ending up at Indiana State University where he remained until graduation.

About 3,100 fans attended Bird's first home game at Indiana State, and just as he had done at Springs Valley High School, Bird single-handedly turned the team around. In the first game he played after joining the Figs (the name of the Indiana State University basketball team), Larry averaged 3 points and 1 rebounds per game. Due to his outstanding performance, the team's ticket sales tripled throughout the season, and the television station also replaced advertisements with Larry's game highlights. Many students skipped class early to queue up to buy tickets.

"Larry Bird Basketball" was the most popular sport in Terre Haute (the city where Indiana State University is located) at that time

In his last year of college, Bird led the Figs in the The NCAA was invincible and had an impressive record of 33 consecutive victories until they met the Michigan State University basketball team led by a 6-9 point guard named Magic Johnson in the finals. It was one of the most famous finals in NCAA history and the most watched college basketball game in the next 25 years. Although the Fig team ultimately lost the finals, Bird still won the Naismith Award for the best college basketball player of the year and the John Wooden Award. He is also the fifth-highest scoring player in NCAA history. In the years with Bird, the Figs created an astonishing record of 81 wins and 13 losses.

The Boston Celtics selected Bird with the sixth overall pick as early as 1978. At that time, they believed that Bird was fully capable of playing in the NBA, so they tried their best to persuade him to give up his final college career. One year straight into professional basketball. Bird rejected such suggestions, but nonetheless, the team's wait for him for another year is undoubtedly completely worth it. The Celtics' record in the 1977-78 season was 32 wins and 50 losses, which was the team's worst record since 1949. Bird delayed joining the NBA for a year because he had to complete his studies. In the 1978-79 season, the Celtics People even created a new low of 29 wins and 53 losses. But when Bird came to Boston in 1979, it marked the beginning of the greatest turnaround in the history of the NBA.

In the following 79-80 season, the Celtics won 32 more games and regained the division championship with a record of 61 wins and 21 losses. In a total of 82 games, rookie Bird led the team in scoring (21 points per game), rebounds (10.4 per game), steals (143), and playing time (2,955 minutes). First, he also ranked second on the team in assists (4.5 per game) and 3-pointers (58). Although Magic Johnson, who entered the NBA in the same year, also performed amazingly and helped the Lakers win the championship, Bird was still elected as the Rookie of the Season and was selected to the All-Star team for the first time.

In the subsequent off-season, the Boston Celtics acquired center Robert Parish and sixth man Kevin McHale through a player transaction considered to be the most valuable player in NBA history. The super forward line composed of Bird and Cedric Maxwell finally led the Celtics to the championship in the 1980-81 season. Among them, the Eastern Conference finals against the Philadelphia 76ers is a classic in history. The Celtics fell behind 1:3 at first, and then unexpectedly won 3 consecutive sets on the edge of the cliff. In the finals, the Celtics defeated the Houston Rockets led by Moses Malone 4:2. In his second year in the NBA, Bird also ranked first on the team in scoring (21.2 points per game), rebounds (10.9), steals (161), and playing time (3,239 minutes).

Bird's skills not only attracted a large number of fans to the Boston Garden to watch him play, but they were also overcrowded when he played away games. Together with Magic, he saved the already bleak NBA market and helped the league realize its new slogan: Incredible NBA Performance. In just two seasons, fans, coaches, and players all know what the name Bird means: big data and clutch performances. The focus and composure he brings to the game make him difficult to beat, while the exquisite shooting skills he has developed since childhood help him to be invincible when attacking. In that era, there was no other shooter as good and consistent as Bird.

Bird is the embodiment of Celtic honor. He is a player who combines elegance, confidence, and diligence. He likes to meet challenges under pressure while helping his teammates do their best.

Beginning in the 1981-82 season, Bird was selected to the NBA's second defensive team three consecutive times, although he looked a bit slow and was not the best one-on-one defender.

However, his excellent anticipation and positioning make him an excellent defender. His insight into the game allows him to always act before his opponents.

Starting from the 1983-84 season, Bird was elected as the regular season MVP for three consecutive years. He is the third person in NBA history to win this honor after Russell and Chamberlain. In the 1984 Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers, Bird and the Celtics finally won Game 7. This is also the first time he and Magic have met in the playoffs since the 1979 NCAA finals. In Game 5, Bird scored 34 points to help the Celtics win 121-103. In the crucial Game 7, Bird scored 20 points and 12 rebounds to help the Celtics win 111-102. With averages of 27.4 points and 14 rebounds per game in seven Finals games, Bird deserves to be the Finals MVP.

In the 1984-85 season, Bird's scoring average reached a new high of 28.7, ranking second in the league. This was also the second-highest scoring season in Bird's entire career. Among them, he set a personal record of 60 points in a game against the Atlanta Hawks. At the same time, Bird made 56 of 131 three-pointers this season, ranking second in the league with a 42.7% field goal percentage. Due to Bird's elbow and finger injuries, the Celtics eventually lost to the Lakers 2:4 in the Finals that year, but Bird still received his second regular season MVP trophy at the end of the season. .

In the following season, the Celtics won their 16th championship in history, and Bird also reached the peak of his career. The personal honors he received this year include: regular season MVP, finals MVP, sports figure of the year, and Associated Press Male Athlete of the Year. In addition to ranking first in the league in three-pointers and free throw rate, other personal statistics are also among the best. He even went to the Three-Point Shooting Contest during the All-Star Weekend to perform a magic shooting trick and won his first Three-Point Shooting Contest championship. Under Bird's leadership, the Celtics created the best record in history of 67 wins and 15 losses. In the Finals, Bird once again helped the team defeat the Houston Rockets 4:2 with a near-triple-double performance averaging 24.0 points, 9.7 rebounds and 9.5 assists per game. In the crucial Game 6, Bird scored 29 points and 11 rebounds. With 12 assists, there is no doubt that he became the Finals MVP for the second time.

In the 1986-87 season, Bird's performance was equally amazing. He became the first player in NBA history to shoot over 50% from the field (actually 52.5%) and over 90% from the free throw line (actually 91.0%) in a single season. The following season, he proved in classic Bird fashion that this was no flash in the pan - his 52.7% field goal percentage and 91.6% free throw percentage broke records again. At the same time, he also maintained personal data of 28 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists per game in these two seasons.

As we all know, Bird is a crafty defensive player, and his most famous performance came in Game 5 of the 1987 Eastern Conference Finals against the Detroit Pistons with three seconds left in the game. In 5 seconds, the Celtics were one point behind 106-107, and the Detroiters had the right to serve. Bird predicted that Thomas' sideline ball was going to Laimbeer, so he intercepted the ball before Laimbeer and quickly passed it to teammate Dennis Johnson, who made a buzzer-beater to turn defeat into victory. After this battle, the Celtics finally defeated the Pistons in seven games to become the Eastern Conference champions and enter the Finals for the fourth consecutive time.

At this time, Bird was already a 30-year-old veteran. Increasingly serious back and foot injuries prevented his dream of winning a fourth championship ring. But he still had superhuman performances from time to time in the game.

In the 1987-88 season, Bird became the first player in Celtics history to score 4 and rebound 2 in a game against the Indiana Pacers. In the game, Bird scored 42 points and 20 rebounds. His scoring average of 29.9 this year was also the highest record of his career. During this season, Bird also achieved the feat of winning three consecutive Three-Point Contest championships, a record only later reached by Craig Hodges of the Chicago Bulls (1990-92).

In this year’s Eastern Conference semifinals with the Atlanta Hawks, the duel between Bird and the Hawks’ Dominique Wilkins in the fourth quarter was a classic. Bird scored 20 points in the last quarter. , allowing the Celtics to win - even though he was still suffering from severe bronchitis at this time.

During the 1988-89 season, Bird only played 6 games due to surgery to remove a bone spur in his heel. In the following season, Bird made 71 consecutive free throws, which was the third-highest record in NBA history. In the 1990-91 season, Bird missed 22 games due to back neuralgia. This disease eventually forced Bird to retire in 1992. In Game 5 of the first round of the 1990-91 playoffs against the Indiana Pacers, Bird fell heavily in the second quarter and suffered facial and back injuries. But he came back on the court in the third quarter to help the Celtics win 124-121. Doctors performed surgery on his back after the season, but it didn't seem to have much effect.

The 1991-92 season was Bird's last season. He missed 37 games due to a back injury. In a nationally televised game against the Portland Trail Blazers in March, Bird reappeared as a clutch player, scoring 16 points in the fourth quarter and taking the Celtics' final nine points, including Including a three-pointer that changed the outcome with two seconds left in the game! After two overtimes, Boston finally won 152-148. Bird scored 49 points, 14 rebounds, 12 assists and 4 steals in this game.

"Whenever Bird is on the court, it is possible to create miracles." Portland Trail Blazers superstar Drexler said to the Boston Express after the game.

If there was the only obvious low-level mistake in Bird's career, it was in the fourth game of his final playoff season against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Bird made a common mistake in overtime. The layup was missed, which caused the Celtics to lose the game 112-114. The Cleveland Cavaliers finally eliminated the Celtics with a total score of 4:3. In three of the four games the Celtics lost, Bird was unable to play because of a back injury.

Now is the time for Bird to retire, but before that he has to fulfill one wish, which is to join the 1992 American Dream Team and win the basketball gold medal at the Barcelona Olympics. His career as a professional player came to a perfect end.

When the 1992-93 season began to approach, Bird made the final decision. On August 18, he officially announced his retirement to the media. In 897 games over 13 seasons, Bird*** scored 21,791 points, 8,974 rebounds, and 5,695 assists, averaging 24.3 rebounds, 10.0 assists, and 6.3 per game. His career field goal percentage is 49.6% and his free throw percentage is 88.6%.

Bird subsequently chose to serve as a management official in the Celtics club. His responsibilities were mainly to evaluate the players' abilities and performance. In fact, he spent most of the five years after his retirement on golf courses in Florida. Sometimes he will also participate in some commercial activities or make a cameo in movies, such as Michael Jordan's "Space Jam".

Nevertheless, Bird's life began to become boring due to the lack of competition, and the idea of ????returning to the NBA to take on more challenging positions grew day by day. When the Celtics hit rock bottom in the 1996-97 season, Bird once hoped that he could be the coach candidate for the team's reorganization. However, when the Celtics appointed Rick Pitino as the new team president and head coach, Bird knew that he had no alternative positions in Boston, so he decided to resign and return to his hometown of Indiana to seek another career.

On May 12, 1997, Bird was appointed as the head coach of the Indiana Pacers. Although he had never coached a game before, no one would doubt Bird's commanding talent.

"This guy has everything I think about every day," Pacers chairman Donnie Walsh said of Bird. "I hope our high school, college and professional basketball careers here can develop together and complement each other, and Bird is such an iconic figure. I fully believe he will become an excellent head coach."

"He has a fascinating charm. When he talks, you will be unknowingly drawn into his world. This is what a head coach must have."

" "As a coach, I am still a novice, but I feel that I have the ability to do this job well," Bird told the media, "I have enough experience and knowledge about basketball, and I will lead everyone to do the right and necessary things." Win the game."

In Bird's three-year head coaching career, his leadership performance has been remarkable. In the first season, with Reggie Miller as the main scoring machine, the Pacers achieved the best regular season record in team history of 58 wins and 24 losses, and reached the Eastern Conference finals all the way, fighting hard for 7 games before finally winning 3: 4 lost to the defending champion Chicago Bulls led by Jordan. Bird himself won the NBA Coach of the Year award. In the 1998-99 season, the Pacers once again reached the Eastern Conference Finals, this time they lost to the New York Knicks. In the 1999-2000 season, Bird led the Pacers to make a comeback and finally defeated the Knicks in 6 games in the Eastern Conference Finals, taking revenge. Although they lost to the KO-led Los Angeles Lakers in the finals, the tremendous changes Bird brought to the Pacers can be seen.

After losing in the finals, Bird resigned as head coach. After a three-year break, Bird returned as the president of the Pacers basketball department. When he took office, he fired the team's head coach Isiah Thomas and replaced him with Rick Carlisle, his assistant when he was the Pacers head coach. Although the Pacers lost veteran Reggie Miller in 2005, a group of young stars such as Jermaine O'Neal, Ron Artest, Stephen Jackson, and Jamal Tinsley have matured. The team has good strength in all positions, and the age structure of the players is also quite reasonable. It is recognized as a first-class team in the league.

With Bird's personality, he undoubtedly has only one goal - to lead the team to win the championship. Let's wait and see.
