dherm360 · July 10, 2003 2:04PM

Larry Bird was right handed

JErik20 · July 10, 2003 2:08PM

I'm pretty sure Bird was right-handed, i think that's what he meant. Some other lefties are Cuttino Mobley, Michael Redd. And TrFstPtch, Shandon Anderson is a point guard, check JB's reply for the correct answer

JoeBenson · July 10, 2003 2:09PM

ooooook i see what yall mean now, LARRY BIRD

he SHOT right handed but WAS left handed...

she didnt say in the questions 3 players that shot left handed, but 3 people that were left handed...

so KOBEcollector and dherm are wrong

maybe larry bird has a site ans has it somewhere bout him being a southpaw

JoeBenson · July 10, 2003 2:12PM

dherm360 · July 10, 2003 2:14PM

KOBEcollector · July 11, 2003 2:02PM

lol ok Joe Benson. Im sure thats what you meant

JoeBenson · July 11, 2003 2:18PM

<< <i>lol ok Joe Benson. Im sure thats what you meant

>>

lol dave...dave...dave...

thats like saying babe ruth batted right handed...if you dont know babe batted lefty you were born yesterday, same with knowing bird SHOT righty...he writes left, and does alot of basic things left handed...didnt you ever wonder why bird had an unusually accurate left hand?

JoeBenson · July 11, 2003 2:20PM

i had no idea how many shaq scored in his debut...for some reason 30 and 12 popped in my head, as in 30 points 12 rebounds...but come to think of it, that was tmacs first game with the magic!

i admit to being stumped on the shaq question!!

KOBEcollector · July 11, 2003 2:24PM

JB, thats a good point about his nice left handed shots. He always shot those left handed half-hooks . And here i thought those were something special lol

JoeBenson · July 11, 2003 2:26PM

lol nope nothin special, was special for a guy to shoot with his wrong hand all his life...he prolly was taught with the right hand and he got used to it...but was still naturally lefty...

i guess its like those baseball players who throw left, and bat right
