The world was NOT ready for an all black team when they came to play. Yet, the world embraced them. They are showmen, phenomenal players, more talent than most of us can whip up in a lifetime. The rap sucks BIG time, but to see Meadowlark and Curly, well worth the watch. I remember when they got the new uniforms. It was nearly a lifetime ago. But well worth it. One HELL of a team.
@celticsrock1011 so you`re saying basketball is only for people with other colour? Only black people play basketball? ALL black people play basketball? I respect your point, but I was a little confused by your words
@MrBobbyJules i understand, but im saying there is no real reason to hate these guys really, they r funny, cool to watch, and makes the game better. there is not a lot of room for people to hate thts all. nothing to do with who plays the game and who doesnt
My father was one of the Original Harlem Globetrotters in the early 50's.
My new book Basketball Slave tells the real story behind the Globetrotters and NBA.
Includes interviews with Wilt Chamberlain and other greats in that era that tells the real deal that the HG organization and the NBA never though would surface.
oh man as a basketball player you can really appreciate this, so funny watchin all these so called pros fall over from a guy on his knees. better than and1 or any of that by far
The Harlem Globetrotters could do all those tricks but most games where all a show. At first it was all about dribbling and fooling, then it became all about sick dunks.

Too bad they had to take a family group like the Globe Trotters and dub in this garbage filled with lyrics you wouldn't want your kids to hear.I hope the Club removes this video soon!!
True, but that doesn't take away from the supreme ability of the athletes. They have beaten college All-Americans, the Lakers, and the Celtics, so these guys can play.
Actually, referring to them wearing 'short shorts' is a misnomer, they are wearing shorts, regular shorts, period. Today's players wear 'long shorts', damn near dresses... lol. Other than that, cool video here of classic HG clips... thanks!

they are abnormally good, like i diddnt no it was humanly posible to be that good at basketball, they must had been playin since they where like 1 month old.
Great athletes and great trick-shot artists. When I was a kid I loved to watch Curly Neal dribble and Meadowlark Lemon sink hook shots from mid-court. But over the decades, the Trotters' shtick has become repetitive and really pretty boring. And the new stars don't measure up to Neal, Lemon, et al. The group's time may have passed.
I have seen the Harlem Globetrotters yesterday in Germany,live!And it was awesome!!!I was clapping louder than anybody else in the Arena!Great showtime!
The Dunk at 3:00 was #13 Wilt Chamberlain. He left college a year early because he wanted to make money. Back then the NBA would not let him in, so he was a GlobeTrotter for a year.
