So here's part 3 of a really well made HBO documentary about the Larry Bird/ Magic Johnson rivalry. This part is particularly interesting in regards to race. I think the NBA today is very much like the NBA of the late 70's early 80's when it comes to how white players are viewed by fans, media, and other players. If you ever get a chance to view the entire documentary you'll see just how much of an impact these two players had on the game, but for now I feel like this segment explains a good del about my myth.
