SMALL BIO:
In 1967, the two-time All-American was drafted by the Baltimore Bullets (now the Washington Wizards) in the first round of the NBA draft (2nd overall pick). He won the NBA Rookie of the Year Award in a season in which he averaged 24.3 points per game, and scored 56 points in a game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This was the third-highest rookie total in NBA history at the time and also a franchise record (later broken by Gilbert Arenas on December 17, 2006).He formed a formidable one-two punch with Wes Unseld and became a cult hero for his ability to run the fast break and for his circus-like shots. He said "The thing is, I don't know what I'm going to do with the ball, and if I don't know, I'm quite sure the guy guarding me doesn't know either." On February 6, 1970, he set an NBA record with 13 points in one overtime in a double overtime victory over the Detroit Pistons (since surpassed by Gilbert Arenas).New York Knicks In 1971, Monroe was traded to the New York Knicks and formed a celebrity backcourt with equally flamboyant Walt Frazier. The duo meshed together to form one of the most deadly guard combinations of all time, featuring two Hall of Famers and NBA 50th Anniversary Team members. With Monroe, the Knicks won the 1973 NBA championship.
A four-time NBA All-Star, Monroe retired after the 1980 season due to serious knee injuries, which plagued him throughout his career. He had played 926 NBA career games, scored 17,454 total points (18.8 ppg) and dished out 3,594 assists. Monroe, who, along with Pete Maravich, was among the first to transform the NBA game into an exhilarating art form, had his number 15 jersey retired by the Knicks on March 1, 1986.Even Monroe admits that his flowing, fluid, silky-smooth on-court style of play was unique. He has said: "You know, I watch the games and even now I never see anyone who reminds me of me, the way I played

  • Looks like Magic Johnson copped some of them spin moves to the basket and some of his passes as well. Good model to copy if you can

    pull it off. Guards aren't what they used to be though, in the 70's from what I hear, most guards could hit that midrange J with regularity.

  • earl the pearl, one of my all time favorite knicks.

  • YAHOO!! Get a high lvl pure char for rs, free account from this site rune-scape-free [.] tk

  • love it the way he plays so close to the ground, but can't be timed by the defense.

  • If Earl was playing to day he'll have to practice extra hard to do the stuff he did back in the day. Lifting a lot of weights would help too.

  • Im sure he did at some point in his career. Back in the 60's and 70's players use to do lay-ups more than dunks.
