Is Luka Doncic better than Larry Bird was with the Boston Celtics?

Most Boston fans will not hesitate to shoot such a proposition down with gusto. But what about someone who knew him well?

The trope has been out in the wild for some time now, but after seeing it up close and personal in the 2024 NBA Finals, it’s time to take the temperature of fans of the Boston Celtics. Is Luka Doncic better than Larry Bird was with the Celtics?

Most Boston fans will not hesitate to shoot such a proposition down with gusto. But what about someone who knew him well behind the scenes as a member of the media covering him in his heyday? Bob Ryan, Jeff Goodman, and Gary Tanguay discussed whether or not Luka could be better than Larry on a recent episode of the eponymous CLNS Media “Bob Ryan, Jeff Goodman, and Gary Tanguay!” podcast.

Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say.
