That was so cute, I'm glad you posted it and I got to know it existed.
arizonaman
I really didn't think he would make it based on first few attempts.
Bergeldergle
I hope one day i get to see them. Talk about good clean fun!
SnarkySophia
I love that they kept encouraging him to keep going instead of just taking over and assisting it in. Teaching a damn good lesson.
caber1240
Kid shot the height first time, but was shooting higher than he's used to. Great form, and he knew to get closer. Amazing
Zoem
+1 for OP's name..... David Tennant nailed it... never imagined the 10th doctor can be......that

Thanks for the source. I always like watching videos such as these with an audio.

The Globetrotter whistle jingle thing is forever stuck in my head thanks to Futurama

dt7693
They were all legitimately happy for him. Such kind people.
bttycrckr
I went to a globetrotter game when I was young. I fucking loved it these guys are the best
QotU
The best part is that they respected the kid enough to not help him.
jakefromreddit
He peaked

Kid has some nice dance moves.
finewine8888
Should've been working on that shot
traian96
Booo
bitemark
But if you make the shot and can't do the dance, then what?
finewine8888
The dancing parts is easy to fake… Just move your hips and raise your hands...now shake that ass...now your dancing!!!
ChillJill
They're some of the best people on this earth.
dajustifier
You mean... The GLOBE?! Zing.
Jonmbram
I worked with them when they came to my old work in California. I ran their scorekeeping console. They're all super nice and a ton of fun.
OfficialJoeBiden
They're basically the three stooges, only they're 8 gigantic black men.
TechnicallyRight
Who are very dexterous with their hands and feet. Put a basketball in those hands and watch out.
Imalwaysready
If Dolly Parton and the Globetrotters ever teamed up, man...
ChillJill
I love Dolly Parton, but why that combination?
Imalwaysready
You saying she's not also in the best people on Earth category?
benroger
I got a signed jersey from the team and it's one of my cooler possessions
MontyMikhail
I thought that read “colored” possessions...
Paintmanusa
Late 70's I got Meadowlark Lemon & Curly Neils autograph. Wish I had a jersey. Cool !
MyVoice
I remember Meadowlark & Curly!! Don't be sad - I wish I had their autographs!

This feels like inception IRL. A circle somewhere was just completed.

Why don't any of the trotters play professionally?
bitemark
Short answer: they're awesome, but different skill set
UpvotesForAllUBeeches
Totally different skillset
LaAguaChocha
Too talented probably
81licks
Looks to me like being a Globetrotter is waaay more fun!
fluhatinrapper
Simple answer: they are exceptionally talented, hard-working and gifted players. Just not nearly good enough for the NBA.
SarcasmSnob
It's just another non-NBA option. Some go to Europe, some do this. They all have to play real ball, though. They scrimmage top NCAA teams.
Aguineapigtrickedme
Because they can talk trash, they can handle the ball, but at the end of the day are they funky enough to be a globe trotter?

JPII was a member, even!
Paintmanusa
He was a spirited player !
RyanForehand
Several have Wilt Chamberlain was a globetrotter for example
MelfsAcidArrow
Chamberlain did for years before NBA
BlackAssMamaWhiteAssDaddy
Because the NBA is scripted, duh

Best answer
rumandbass
cle vs gs round 4? There's lebron and kyrie drama right now...gonna be interesting.
OwlEyez
I have wondered the same thing but have been too lazy to look it up.
notalurker777
I think the real question is why dont more pros quit to be a globe trotter
yeahyeahdefinitely
the average salary for an active-roster player in the NBA is $6.3 million.
Gawaiin
They're not funky enough.
metalfoto
askin the real questions
HoldMyWater
Cuz they ain't good enough.
The22ndDoctor
They could be Generals.
HisDudness
teakasaurus
notalurker777
DootBoop
I think it's fair to say that while they're still extraordinarily skilled, NBA players have a much wider skill set.
OliveYahurtin
One might argue that the juggling and clowning they do are just as broad a skill set, just an entirely different one.
DootBoop
I wouldn't argue against that.
SmoothThunderPunch
its not about that. Playing for the trotters is playing to entertain, for show, for fun. NBA is competition. Expectations are different
MoonbuttTheGreat
They play real bball. It's like WWE vs boxing. WWE is the real sport, boxing is scripted and fake
GenoBeam
teakasaurus
Oh, like the news? :o

KCBeard
biscuitsngravybelly
I am starting to believe this after the last manny paquaio fight.
OnceUponThyme
Playing for the globe trotters is professional all though it is theater showmanship rather than competitive sport.
AngryVelvetUnicorn
SHIT. Sorry! I replied to the wrong person!
Drabaroo
All though?
AngryVelvetUnicorn
It's kinda like "if you're such a good break dancer, why don't you ballroom dance professionally?" Absolutely 2 diff things.
adventureismydrugofchoice
Logically no. It's more like the street performers who are amazing at dribbling and controlling a soccer ball. Yet, when on the field their
adventureismydrugofchoice
control doesn't make up for all the other skills that are needed.
CthulhusGreasyBallsack
Or maybe they love making the world a happier place, and they knew how to play basketball, so they put the two together.
TheBIFFALLO87
The NBA and even some Euro leagues are quite hard to play for. The $ is probably less to play for HGT than overseas, but closer to family.
Honkyasscracker
The Globetrotters are notorious cheaters. NBA doesnt have time for throwing feathers at the refs. Plus ball under the shirt is illegal.
yourcreepyunclefriendly
They arnt cheaters they're just all about tricks and showmanship so things like travel and double dribble get overlooked
yourcreepyunclefriendly
I don't think that makes them cheaters
Honkyasscracker
THEY HAVE A BALL ON A STRING!!!! They have been known too pull down the opposing teams shorts.
