Bird, Magic revisit rivalry as Lakers, Celtics clash again
0 Comments | AFP, June, 2008
BOSTON, Massachusetts (AFP) — Basketball icons Magic Johnson and Larry Bird expect a new generation of stars to lift the rivalry between the Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics to greater heights starting on Thursday.
Johnson sparked the Lakers to five National Basketball Association titles in the 1980s while playmaker Bird led the Celtics to three crowns in the decade, setting the stage for an emotional rematch in this year's NBA Finals.
"Will they understand the rivalry? They will know what it's about when the ball goes up," Johnson said on Tuesday. "They may not understand what Larry and I went through. They may not understand what the rivalry was like in our day.
"They are going to create their own rivalry starting Thursday night."
