The Bird's Ending

Drive: The Story of My Life - Larry Bird, Bob Ryan, Earvin Johnson

As I am wrapping up my novel, Larry Bird is coming down to his most recent awards and accomplishes. The book tells of how Larry had won the first NBA Three-Point Contest ever and how he finished his last one with flair as he threw up a fist as he released the ball and headed to the winner's circle. Swish. Larry, now winding down his career due to the inevitable injuries, wishes to play the next 90-91 season with the Boston Celtics with a  renewed contract. Yet, Bird doesn't know it yet, he'll only get to play a few seasons left.
