When he was coaching the Pacers and Reggie Miller hit that clutch three and they showed Bird on the sidelines with just a blank stare. I thought that was so cool since the place was going absolutely crazy and you just knew that Larry had been there so many times before in his playing career. Anyone else remember this moment?

I sure do. That was Reggie shooting that 3 in Jordan's face.
The reason that Bird remained so composed was because there was still two seconds left on the clock, and he knew anything can happen in two seconds.
His team didn't need him jumping up and down. His mind was busy devising a defensive strategy for those last two seconds.
Michael Jordan slipped while trying to shoot the game winner. Another "clutch" Jordan moment. LOL
And BTW.....when Dr J and Bird got into it, it was over the fact that Bird was outscoring Doc 42-6. So, I believe it was Dr.J who got "owned", dummy!

Yes... I do...Why was he so surprised? Look up clutch in the dictionary and you will find Miller with his hand in the air and his feet in the air behind the three point line and the ball going in. He was money from the three. I use to love to watch that man play.
I'm a Laker Fan so I hated him at the same time lol.
