4.0 out of 5 stars
Oustanding basketball video from the 16 time NBA Champion Boston Celtics, August 25, 2006
This review is from: Winning Basketball with Larry Bird and Red Auerbach [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Quick, what was the last mostly
caucasian Pro Basketball tema to
win the NBA Title? Why the Boston
Celtics, of course. The team that
brought the NBA the first all-black
starting lineup, the first black
number one pick, G.M., Coach (Bill
Russell), et, al. Had Larry Bird,
Rick Carlisle, Dennis Johnson, Dave
Thirdkill, Scott Wedman, Bill Walton,
Robert Parish, Kevin McHale, Sam
Vincent, et, al in 1985-86, which is
probably the greatest team in NBA
history. See this great basketball
video with Larry Bird and Red AuerbacH
(not 'k', as the meatheads here miss-
pelled!) and find out why they were so
good in the '80's. Also why the Celtics
always stomped on everyone's sterotypes!

A must have if you coach or have kids that play basketball., May 28, 2011
This review is from: Winning Basketball with Larry Bird and Red Auerbach [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a great video. Sure, it's a bit dated but as Red Auerbach states "It's about fundamentals."
Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, Dennis Johnson and Robert Parrish, show you what it takes to be successful in basketball. As a kid my father bought us this and we watched it many times and it helped us and fostered our interest in the game.
As a jr. varisty coach this is a good tape to show to your team.
If anything this is a great piece of nostalgia if you like the good ole days of basketball.
