I could watch this all day. Honestly you could compare Bird highlights to Jordan ones. Only difference is instead of dunks it's passes. The pass at 1:38 could be the greatest ever.
How can one define "best ever" when either could be better than the other one, depending on the team around him. In a one-on-one, Jordan v Bird in both of their primes, maybe Jordan takes it, but in actual basketball, it's hard to say elite player A is strictly better than elite player B.

Not sure if Bird is the best ever. Spanarkel had a few good years. Same with Birdsong :D
For some odd reason I'm having a hard time finding many Spanarkel highlight videos.
There's gotta be some. Well at least some of him dancing.
I SO wish he played for the Celtics. Seriously was Chris Ford better than him?
No Jordan is the best ever without a doubt, but Bird's highlight reels can rival anyone's even Jordan's.

Sometimes I don't focus on best as much as on "changed the game forever". There are very few guys that can say that.
