IMMEDIATE: Larry Legend Has Announced His Return Because of…
breaking up Michael Jordan’s 13-game losing run against Larry Bird and the Boston Celtics
Larry is one of the few players who has ever defeated the Bulls icon.
Michael Jordan enjoyed a significant deal of success during his NBA career. Jordan’s six titles won while playing for the Chicago Bulls have a big part in making him the greatest basketball player of all time.
Of course, a lot of fans forget that the Bulls needed some time to get things going early in Jordan’s career. During that time, he lost to Larry Bird and the Boston Celtics 13 times in a row.
sequence of losses versus Bird
Jordan and Bird faced off frequently in the 1980s. Larry defeated Michael early in his career, even though Michael would go on to become the best player in the league. In retrospect, the run all started during Jordan’s injury-plagued 1985–86 season.
Despite playing in just 18 games during the regular season that year, MJ was able to make a comeback in time for the teams’ playoff first-round matchup. Despite facing Boston in one of his few regular-season games, his 20 points were insufficient to prevent Chicago from suffering a crushing defeat.
