Larry Bird is a retired American NBA basketball player, whom coach Red Auerbach considered to be the greatest basketball player of all time. Bird was voted to the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team in 1996 and inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1998. He served as head coach of the Indiana Pacers from 1997 to 2000. In 2003, he assumed the role of president of basketball operations for the Pacers, which he currently still holds.

Born December 7, 1956, his primary personality traits are ruled by the Chinese Zodiac elemental animal, the Fire Monkey. The Fire Monkey has added energy which will propel them to incredible feats. When not coming up with the ultimate mind game, he will use this vitality to reach new heights in career, competition, and enjoyment. His Fire element makes him among the most confrontational of the Monkeys, and he finds the extra energy useful to satisfy his desire to control his surroundings, a desire often fueled by jealousy.
