Highlight: Larry Bird scores 60 points against Atlanta Hawks

As Bill Simmons noted, today is the 25th anniversary of Larry Bird’s demolition of the Atlanta Hawks.

Bird scorched them so badly that even the Hawks own players couldn’t help but cheer on the bench. Games like these, with the opposing team so clearly in envy of Bird’s outlandish skills, are just more evidence to why Isiah Thomas is a dumb asshole and people should stop comparing slow, white collegiate basketball players to Bird.
