15. Larry Bird Played An Entire Game Shooting Only With His Left Hand


This urban legend isn't entire true, but he did score a smooth 22 of his 47 points that game shooting with only his left hand. The Celtics had came into this game winning 14 of their last 15 games and finished with 47 points, grabbed 14 rebounds and dished out 11 assists (21-34 FG). Once more,  he hit the game tying shot to send the game to OT, and then made the game winning shot. Larry Legend indeed.

    Look at the bent corner on the draft envelope for 1985. Stern is just lucky HDTV didn't exist then.
