Larry Bird Guy Quotations

Like me, he plays the game to win, ... Because of his intensity and desire to win, Ronnie's a guy I would pay money to watch play.

I think he's the right guy at the right time. Sometimes you need a wake-up call. We've got ours.

The right guy at the right time after Athens and the World Championships, ... This is the type of guy we need. After 2004 we needed a wake up call and we got ours.

It makes me sick when I see a guy just stare at a loose ball and watch it go out of bounds.

Guys like Larry Bird -- he played so hard, he wants everybody else to play hard. That's not unreasonable. Any coach would want that and demand that.
