I'm from Harlem and got to know Earl personally and he was a great man and it was an honor to say he was my friend , TRUE LEGEND
Respect, Phillip, yes sir.
Respect my Brother.
Where did you play basketball?Park,school, league?
@Justin Washington where?where did you go to school?
@Justin Washington I'm from the east side. I lived on the last block of Madison av.as a small child then moved to 104st.&3rd av. where I grew up.Commander Shea on 111st then St.Cecelia on 106st.Rice h.s. on124&Lenox.
Earl used to be at the park every day. I had no idea who he was at the time. I remember one day he came up to me and showed how to shoot a jumper. He had an unusual shot where he cross his shooting hand over to the other side of his body and shoot. He said try it. I did and made all my shots. I was blown away. I was sadden one night when I went to go shoot around at the basketball court. As I walked in I noticed a memorial with candles lit on the ground. As I got closer I noticed it was dedicated to him after he passed away. I was sad to say the least and went back home. Didn’t feel like shooting hoops that night. I’m glad i got to meet him and get some shooting lessons from him.
I talked with Earl summer of 1996. Was a very personable guy. Left NYC the following year. Learned of his passing while living in Charlotte. RIP Brother.
R.I.P. THE GOAT. His story touched me at an early age. Don Cheedle will always be a legend for that joint
Came here to say that I learned about the Legend of the GOAT and the legendary Don Cheadle at the same time.
That was a good movie.

One of the Best Movies from the 90s!
Earl played at the St Nick's projects courts on 129th & 7th Ave with his favorite players, "Red" Coto, Billy Meggett & Charlie Scott. It was incredible to see them teamed together. They were unstoppable magnificence!!! Charlie & Billy did make it out of the madness. Charlie went on to play with the Boston Celtics, Billy went with the Harlem Globe Trotters, while "Red, " was also consumed by drugs. Nevertheless, when they teamed together, it was like the gods coming down-to-earth to show us kids how the game is truly played.
Charlie Scott did more than that. He was second team AllAmerican along with Johnny Roche. He averaged 37 points for the Virginia Squires. A team that also had Julius Erving and George Gervin. He is also successful after basketball. Of all those guys Charlie Scott definitely had the better career. Dean Memminger played on the Knicks last championship (any you remember that?).
Scott was able to get out of the city though. He played for a first class historically black Prep school, Laurinburg Institute. It helped his chances to escape the PSAL. He discipline and academics at Laurinburg.
Charlie Scott did a lot more than that. He was second team all-American behind Dean Memminger and Pete Maravich(44pts.a game) and next to Johnny Roche. He was a star in the ABA on a team that also had Julius Erving and George Gervin. When he jumped to the NBA me and my friends snuck a bottle of Southern Comfort into Madison Square Garden. When he played for the Celtics he was older and past his prime. He was the first African American ball player at North Carolina and went through many hardships there including loosing player of the year award to Johnny Roche(Lasalle h.s.).When they got to the pros Scott averaged 37ppg.to Roches’ 13ppg. I followed all those guys careers. Scott and Roche had fierce battles head to head and I believe they were actually teammates with the Denver Nuggets. They are fantastic examples for young basketball players. Both became lawyers and were very intelligent people.
"Mama, it ain't nothing to miss a semester of school"........."Baby, it's been 2 years" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
When i started watching basketball my father had already told me a story about this guy. Love this video man.
Before I watch this upload...I just want to thank Earl. I played in the first annual "Goat" tournament when I was like 15 years old(90's). There we even got to ball with and against him, Pee Wee Kirkland, and Nate Archibald for fun in between games. Maaaaan! And now, for the upload.....
My older brother saw him play at the Rucker. my brother was the best basketball player that ive ever known and HE SAID that Earl was "scary good" RIP the one and only GOAT.
At 5"9 I could FLY in Rochester NY from 1982 thru 84, but when your OWN Teammates are Jealous of Your ability to FLY, Changes they Catch Attitudes towards you!
There are a lot of great basketball players who didn't go to the NBA for whatever reason but they are still meaningful, valuable human beings 🥰❤️🖤💚God loves them and l do too
I remember as a kid growing up in the Bronx walking to to see Earl Manigault, Helicopter Knowing, Hammond, the Jackson brothers, and so on in the Rucker Park.
I saw Earl play when I was a young teen. I would've loved to have seen Joe Hammond, Herman helicopter, peewee, and Carlton Green play in the NBA also.
I met the goat in 1995 at Frederick Douglass housing projects on upper West side of Manhattan.... And he also gave us new sneakers r.i.p.
Great video covering key elementos of the Goat's life whom I got to know personally while working on his biography, Double Dunk. Walking around Harlem with him, I was introduced to dozens of residents who recounted Earl's exploits. Some youngsters wore sneakers with "Lil Goat" written on the side. When my students at Brown University heard that Earl was visiting when we we transcribing interviews, they would come by to take him to the Brown gym to play full court scrimmages. HBO bought the film rights directly from him since I only had the book publishing rights. That was money that I'm sure he needed, so I was happy for him, and couldn't find any parts of the Don Cheedle and James Earl Jones flick that were stolen from my book. It was a great experience working with a legend who told me about the real nitty gritty of his life. The movie didnt steal anything from my book, but I say also that they didn't capture a fraction of the story I got from the Goat based on our interviews and special companionship. A Spanish publisher contacted me about translation rights, but nothing developed.
Have you tried to write any other bball success stories? Im sure NBA fans would love it brother. Peace.
Raymond Lewis. Dude was a 6'1 baller with Stephen Curry shooting skills and Iverson like quickness, handles and scoring ability.
I wondered why nobody on here had mentioned RayLew
He was Good, but no where near as good as Tim Cole
Raymond Lewis has an award winning documentary out. Raymond Lewis LA Legend on Amazon Prime, Tubi, KZhead, and United airline in flight movies.
@@DaughterofaLegend Thank you and those you worked with to make your father's documentary a reality.
Sounds like the GOAT.
I remember my freshman year in PE 2010. Coach showed us the Earl Manigault movie Rebound. The original GOAT. That movie is the reason why I used to work out & run track with leg weights on to get my hops up. Rip to Earl Manigault, Rip to Coach Thorpe
Did that work? I never could jump high.
R.I.P Goat!!! His story really touched me.
“Rebound” is one of my fave sports movies.
I knew some people where I used to live knew him personally. Based on their story of him he could have been the first Jordan. Saw the movie so many times. It's great he did something positive before he left this Earth. R.I.P "The GOAT"
I couldn't watch the 2nd part of the movie it was just to said for me to finish the movie
I'm 35...heard about him from my friend as a teen....I knew a few pro players via golf and caddying.... every1 had a story about this guy
I once saw Earl take a dollar off the TOP of the backboard and leave 4 quarters change all one jump, and before he came down he braided his own hair and tied both of his shoes. When he finally landed back on the ground, the sun exploded.
He was the first baller, who could fly into the stratosphere with just one jump. First I didn't believe the story, but someone said, it was true. He had a father who was one of the first human aliens, who came from an unknown planet called " ". His mother was his father. And she liked basketball.
That was mans last universe. Thank Chuck Norris for this new one he built.
Over here crying, you a mf.
@@erickstanford519 Facts
@@the6thfloor33 you crazy as hell. Crying
I was at Johnson C. Smith when The GOAT played for them. His game was ahead of its time.
He was the first air Jordan.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar had the privilege to know the two greats that were never professionals in their field, Earl "The Goat" Manigault and Bruce Lee. The greatest of all time.
@QuinlanVosJr You're aware he wasn't a karate guy , right?
@@SuperJuniorquintero I hate when people say that.
In Brooklyn, Connie Hawkins was our man but we still knew about The GOAT. Honorable mention to Fly Williams and Peewee Kirkland.
appreciated the post. Always tried to follow the street ball legends as I was growing up and sad to know many had tremendous talent that didn't get showcased
So many of our talented Brothers, so many, my, my, my ✊
One of Don Cheadle's best roles.
Arguably his "best" work
His absolute best role.
I knew one in Pittsburgh Pa. We called him the great houndini. My mentor. Houn was his name, Id never seen a guy who could play like him. Got on drugs and died, A real neighborhood crowd thriller. The world never got the pleasure. Broke my heart to see him go.
I remember when that movie came out..... I was in my early teens, that was my first time hearing of him....
Awesome video and thank you for posting, can't wait to watch the Movie.
Thanks “not a tech guy. I first read about “Hook”Mitchell in a SLAM magazine article way,way back in the day. That’s where he got the dunk photos of “Hook”. But the GOAT and Hook’s vertical was easily 50+ inches.
My mother and father used to tell me and my siblings stories about THIS MAN when we were children in the 1980's I use to laugh because in my mind if you did not make it to the NBA you ca not be a GOAT well my parents were 100% right.
The best guy in the league said he was the best, Is it possible you can elaborate. The NBA doesn't determine who's the best
I notice that you have pics of Hook Michell in here, he was also a street ball legend here in the bay area, he went to High School with me.
Oh Yeah!; Earl Manigault was the "Greatest in Basketball" ever!; A Savanted 6-foot-2 Legend in NYC and America altogether, however, his overall Game of Basketball was misunderstood by most basketball coaches in general; it is "Rumored" that "The Goat" was able to "Rise" so high off of the ground; It is Legendary, that he used to take quarters and silver dollars off of the top of the "Backboard"; way over 10 feet, dunk the basketball 2 times consecutively in rapid succession, propelling himself 65 Inches off of the ground!, and had a "Steph Curry" type of "Killer Jump Shot" from the 3-Point territory, with a "Magic Johnson" type, ball Passing Skill!; Must have been a sight to see "Back-in the-day" on the Streets of Harlem!; It was also rumored that he also "Blocked" Kareem Jabarr's "Sky Hook" back around 1970!; The crowd went so frantic, that coaches and officials had to stop the Rucker Pro game for several minutes!. The Goat was only one of many! "Playground Legends" to come out of Harlem, Brooklyn, and the rest of New York City.
I kind of wish someone would have film it, I meant,standing 6feet 2 inches and taking quarters off the top of back board that stand over 10 feet, dang its just hard to believe without seeing it. That mean his feet was at the very bottom of the backboard and that also mean his vertical had to between 56or57, man if this is true he had wingsl underneath his jersey.if anyone got a tape in new York or Charleston Carolina, would u please post it.
Let me guess he could turn invisible AS WELL.. FOF 🤔
The movie is called the GOAT starring Don Cheddel…
Never seen him play does you tube have anything on video about him
@@timothygreen2689 yea, just type in his name. You might find the movie about him. Don Cheddle plays the GOAT. Great movie. Against the rim or above the rim: the real GOAT Earl Manigault story.
I saw him NY in 1991 he was old but he had game. He mostly coached kids.
Would've loved to have seen Joe Hammond, Herman helicopter and Carlton Green play in the NBA also.
First heard about him in the book The City Game.. then seen his movie... wish I could have met him... when Kareem says he is the best he ever play with says alot
This is a really good video, earned my sub
His movie in the 90's was awesome
A few of the pictures you showed of someone dunking is not Earl, it's another streetball legend from Oakland CA. Demetrius Hook Mitchell. Demetrius also has a document about his life called "Hooked" about his downfall into a life of drugs and crime that also cost him his NBA dreams.
Wowww how can I find him
Right
Exactly!!! Read my comments about Earl Mannigault. Joe Hammond was the best to come out of Rucker. Scored 50 points in one half in Dr. J and Charlie Scott.
The Hook had crazy game, he was a street legend
@@graphixdb2009 I heard about him!!! He was nasty. There are so many dudes that didn't make it that could have been in the league but for a number of reasons didn't make it. Let's just say that Joe Hammond was ONE of the best that didn't make it. Not the best!! How can you measure that. Especially from players from different cities and different eras.
Excellent information!
In Detroit Curtis Jones. Dave Bing said CJ could've started with half teams the teams in the NBA at 17 years old.
Back in the day, there weren't a lot of coaches that understood the nuances of being able to have opportunities while talented and skilled with nonbaseball backgrounds. Why did a lot of kids never have a fair shake at the promise of opportunity themselves? The earliest coaches only knew one way and that way was a copy of the white way that was organized, though different and slower. We as black kids didn't field a whole team playing in the streets and alleys. One-on-one with a brother or neighbor was it was at first. And the pace of the game was quicker and faster as younger black males adlibbed more than their coach allowed. Fast break basketball was a black thing that also revolutionized the game, lest we forget! Nearly all or any Black coaches from the earlier era are mostly evolved from baseball-skilled backgrounds or track and field or nothing at all as they just had time to because their job was a graveyard shift. The family dynamics, a lack of proper nutrition, sharing a bed with one's siblings, and even only having one pair of shoes that had to serve for every situation throughout the week superseded any of the almost legend stories. Earl may have been the most famous, infamous GOAT, but he wasn't the only one.
I still think that Cyril Baptiste out of Creighton Univ. 1st player ever drafted by the NBA as an underclassman by the San Francisco Warriors in 1971 under a new program called “The Hardship Case”. He never played a minute in the NBA because of drugs! Best player I ever saw, played with and against. Magic Johnson before Magic!
Alvin Adams was also a‘hardship case’. His parents were both physicians. He was great.
Legend of Earl da Pearl
This Movie changed my love for basketball
Im from Laurinburg NC.. the stories of the players that played at the institute are amazing
Len Bias would be another top contender in the category.
Not really
Much younger however.
Great Knowledge .
Joe Hammond ( the destroyer)
👍🏽Fly Williams too.
This 💯
Thy say it was Raymond Lewis from Verbum Dei High School Los Angeles California.
Cleo Hill, was also a great who played. for Coach Big House Gains, at Winston Salem University. Goggle his name. Earl Monroe came after.
So was Eddie Miles from North Little Rock, Arkansas who lite up his section of the South before going on to play at the University of Seattle and became known as the "Man With The Golden Arm" he and Earl Monroe played with the Baltimore Bullets and the New York Knicks together in the 70's goggle him 🏀🏀
I'm sure I saw him or someone else just like him in Gastonia NC at Bradley Center and other Basketball courts in the 60s,this guy whoever he was,he was the best I've ever seen.
Remember during Goat days the back board was half moon 🎆🙂
Not in the 5 boroughs of NYC sir. The back boards were always the shape that they've been in.
He was and still is one of best friends.. RIP AND RIH EARL YOU DID IT THE ONLY WAY YOU KNEW HOW
When I saw Rebound as a kid I became a fan of don cheadle & obsessed the Earl Manigolt ever since lol
The guy who could grab a quarter off the top of the backboard effortlessly
I actually grew up in Baltimore with a kid last named Manigault lil Arnold was a terror in Baltimore during 70's not sure if related but this Manigault is "BASKETBALL ROYALTY"
He became a principality... against principalities....And completely different game then they didn't call fouls back then.
Thanks for the post. 💯
R.I.P. The Goat we always be loved and missed the first one to show me how to be a killer on the court
I went to the same college as him and his legend isn’t told bc of how it ended 🐐
I knew someone who went to JohnsonCSmith but he messed up there also.
My son graduated from that school 2½ years ago. Honor roll student athlete (football)
@@seanwright8786 You are blessed.
@@georgebrown2175 Thank u kind sir
I didn't even see the name! As soon as I read the caption I knew who this was about!! The Original GOAT 💯. I really liked the movie HBO did on him and Don Cheadle did a excellent job
i was thinking earl manigault before i read it. i was just thinking about the movie "rebound" the other day. watching videos of young men dunk, a kid 5'6" had a 50" vertical.
The guy at 3:21 in yellow is Darryl, the soul glo guy from, "Coming to America."
FACTSSS
@Nino Black I am quite aware of how smart he is. I think no matter because the movie is nostalgic and a lot of people love it and his acting is good he will always be known for this role.
I grew up in NYC playing street ball and manigault was the men never saw him play in every play ground in NYC his story was told at 6'1 he can jump and take a dime from on top of the back board jabbar,Dr j,Monroe and many other nba star saw and play against a street legend indeed r.i.p mr. Manigault
If you don’t use it you lose it! His talent transferred over to David Thompson, Dr. J, and Jordan, Kobe and is still to this day moving from player to player. Didn’t get to see him but knows there will never be another like him! Maybe Morant?

more like moron
This is one of the best HBO originals (movie about Earl)-----Don Cheadle
I read his auto biography "The Double Dunk" my senior year of high school (1986) New York street ballers said his dunks were legendary. If only they had KZhead and Tic Tock back in the 60's
Kareem is a top 10 player...if you get rid of the other 9 and leave only the top spot. Come on, now. Manigault is legendary, even if you're not from New York...I'm not, but read about him in Connie Hawkins' book back when I was a kid. The Hawk revered him, as Kareem does... Dude I was chatting with in a sports forum told me he actually saw him play...said Goat came down and dunked on Connie Hawkins (!!!), left-handed, caught the ball in mid-flight, and then banged it again with the right. That's how legends are born, and grow.
thats in the movie
@@jamesbracely349 I never saw the movie but now I think I might watch...
I read Connie Hawkins book over and over. I never saw that part. If you're referring to Foul : The Connie Hawkins Story by Alexander Wolff
Street ball was exciting but if you didn’t get a free college education and or pro career what’s the point. Your only game is memories from old fogies like myself. Brooklyn people rave about Fly Williams. I saw him play in the pro’s. He stunk. 9 points a game. I laugh now when people tell me how good he was. Don’t judge by books. Connie Hawkins book Foul is the best book on the subject. All the street players,future NBA stars and people who have caused many top basketball players around the country to be banned by the NBA.
@@georgebrown2175 Fly Williams was a dynamic player in college @ Austin Peay, captured the nation's imagination in the NCAA tournament. And an NBA career is the equivalent of hitting the basketball Powerball, a jackpot reserved only for the select, lucky few. A playground rep isn't that, but it's not nothing, either -- it's still more than most of us will ever get. And those memories are pure gold, for the players and those who were lucky enough to see them play.
2 other. Chicago legends were Sam Puckett and Loyd Batts , the latter played in Europe. Sam coukd t adjust to not being the go to guy At Notre dame. Too many individual stars couldn’t adjust to the team game.
And don't forget Arthur Hicks or Billy Harris. Loyd Batts' little brother Boyd was the starting center on the best high school team I've ever seen. I'd put Thornridge 1972 against Dunbar or any of these other teams you hear about, St Anthony, Chino Hills.
@@nelsonmcatee3721West side of Chicago Played on the first Malcolm X team Eugene ( GOOSE) Smith ,

WAIT A MIN. @3:21 I thought I saw Darryl from Soul-Glo.......Lol.
I'd like to learn more. He got it together before the end, it seems even though his parents screwed him over
In Houston there's a guy called Dwayne Rogers ask Steven Jackson about him
My brother told me about him I didn't believe him good to see this come to light
That picture @3:11 on the right is not earl. That’s Demetrius hook Mitchell from Oakland
Earl was ONE of the greatest street 🏀 players of all time. If only he had connected with the right people . Who knows what he could have become.
Even Kareem Jabbar recognized his skills early on.
I've seen earl fly from one end of the court to the other end. He moved so fast it looked like lightning. He did a back flip in mid air and dunked. Before his feet had touched the ground he had changed bk into his street clothes.
Al you a fool, over here on the floor.
I saw him do a dunk from the other 3 point line!!! No bullshit
@@sfrank8687 I believe you.
Chuck norris of basketball😂
don't make a great player greater than he was, impossible@@sfrank8687
I would have liked to hear more positive stories of his life on the court than negative
The truth can be negative or positive. Before he passed away he contributed back to Harlem. That tells me his life story is positive.
Earl had a tryout with the Utah Stars of the ABA. But he was cut after his physical showed the track marks. In his arm. In Connie Hawkins book ‘Foul’. Connie tells how Earl blocked Wilt Chamberlain shot( Wilt then dunked 5 in a row after that). Earl has the greatest reported dunk in the history of basketball. Earl was 16 or 17. Earl pushes the ball up the court. Earl takes off from the free throw line. A dude who played in college jumped with Earl. Earl does a 360 in the air. Once around and past that defender. Earl does a second 360 when a second defender jumps with Earl. Gets past that defender and then dunks the ball. As someone else mentioned. Earl could dunk the ball catch it , then dunk it in a second time.
And legs beloved
I think the Wilt Chamberlain block was by a guy named Tony Jackson...the way the Hawk tells it, one of the funniest sports anecdotes ever lol
That was Jumping Jackie who blocked Wilt's shot. It was at the Ruckers in the summer of 1960. Goat wasn't even in high school yet. He led Ben Franklin to the PSAL title game in 1964. They lost to Boys High. Ben Franklin went without a PSAL title from 1946 to 1982, the year they closed.
I heard Connie a few times mentioned Earl blocking Wilt on a few interviews. However, I read the book in 72. So you could be right.
"Foul" was written by David Wolfe, about Connie Hawkins.
His favorite song was Smokin' in the Boys Room.
Tough call between him and Joe Hammond….when an NBA team like the Lakers moves their practice to NYC for you, that’s saying something.
Rebound" was the best bball movie the goat!
It's a shame there wasn't iphones back then to record the Goat.
rebound was one of my favorite movies
Wow! What a sad story! This man was a great basketball player!
I'm saying this before watching this video so I apologize if it's mentioned already. Check out the movie Rebound about him. He's played by Don Cheadle.
Don Cheadle played tht part super good to I love tht movie
How about Len Bias or Wayne Estes? Both died before they had a chance to get to the NBA. The same with Hank Gathers.
Aey u gotta remem that ALL these guys Who cudve made a name POSSIBLY 4themselves IF 🤔 🙌🏾 : THEY wudve taken tha NBA ova had they done tha right thing and given the opportunity!

Those first 4 was ALREADY Scary off their rep, so we knew tha hype was REAL! Also I didn't trip on Conspiracies But being Truther n sum of tha outcums of tha othas besides Mike & Dominique had me, makes me, possibly THINK there's sum Bullshiggty Goin Down 🤔 meaning I'm leaning on theory as Motha Bias said sum things that even she thought was bizzare.

@@petegobeckli1386 hard to say how great he was after just one high school season. In college he may have been just a so so player, meaning we don't know if the talent matched the hype.
I remember his story when I was young watch the movie a few times.
I watched the video of Jabbar saying the Manigault was the best that he ever played against and it looked to me that it was obviously staged. We will never know how Manigualt would have done in the NBA. My guess, is decent but not great. Being great at Goat Park is one thing. Being great in the pros is another thing. On the playgrounds, tough defense is often lacking.
Jabber was still playing at the time. Obviously he was not going to name an opponent he has to face on the court.
Jabbar. I hate spellcheck.
I Love what you're saying.That proves my theory about these so called NBA players of today, who think they could've hung with old school players. (Especially LBJ.) They don't play defense, but they want to compare that dude to the LEGENDARY MICHAEL JORDAN. GTFOOH
I was expecting Mel Daniels. On the All ABA team, there were 7 players picked with ALL possible votes. Of those 7, 2 got a single vote as "All Time ABA MVP. Dr. J dominated that vote. MEL was the only other player to get MORE THAN ONE MVP VOTE.
I understand your point, but I "think" Daniels did play a small number of games for Nets (in NBA) 1 yr
@@margaretmaskara9002 Interesting - 11 games, but AFTER he's played in Italy for a season - and appears to have been a backup with the Nets. Definitely well past his prime though - worse than Jordan with the Wizards.
