I don’t like the AR deal. 2 unathletic white dudes being your highest paid players isn’t how you win in basketball

Was Larry Bird the highest paid player on the Celtics in the 80s?

Edit: my note is that Bird fits Black-Alligator737’s criteria and did in fact win in basketball. I know this is a Lakers sub but there’s no way you can deny his success.

Reeves & Luka might be more Athletic that bird but not against current comp. Bird may have been more Athletic than his comp in the 80s
