many people are not aware that the Globetrotters played the Minneapolis Lakers in 1948 and beat them - the NBA, of course, at that time had no black players - zero
the Lakers had the NBA's best player - 6'10" George Mikan
there was a rematch in 1949 and the Trotters beat the Lakers again
the Trotters - no doubt about it - those dudes could play - seriously
