Have they lowered their standards?

I saw them in an exhibition game about fifty years ago, very entertaining. I didn't know they were still around.

Haven't seen them play in years . Saw them once in person when they came to Huntington.

Can't believe they'd lack playing ability. Showmanship can easily slip.

Meadowlark Lemon was one of their star players when I saw them. They were a hoot.

They were sometimes instrumental in solving crimes with meddling kids and a Great Dane.

They have won over 27,000 games, their winning percentage is .987.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

They were ambassadors for the betterment of race relations Worldwide. Good, clean, hilarious humor and amazing basketball skills.

Saw them in the late 70's at a school function, we had a big red head basketball coach on the teachers team and he was playing his game...The globetrotters took him aside and said " take it easy brother, this is just for fun", lol

wonder why they win?, grin

The 60s -70s team members were the best to watch by far.

I remember seeing them as a kid. Rarely did anyone dunk a basketball back then. Players were smaller and didn't jump as high, I suppose. They had a player who made two-handed set shots from all over the court.

I remember seeing them in the mid to late 70's.
Meadowlark Lemon and Curly Neal are the only names I remember.

Very entertaining and I don't like basketball !
