Extractions: A sk a person who the greatest players in the history of basketball are, and you'll most likely get the same familar names. Michael Jordan. Wilt Chamberlain. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Larry Bird. The list goes on and on. But what if you get answers like Swee' Pea, the Goat, Helicopter, Fly, Pee Wee, or the Destroyer? Would you know who they were? Yet if you ask people in inner-city New York or Philadelphia, a place where basketball is the ticket out of the ghetto and away from the drugs, those are some of the answers you'd get. Basketball is life in the ghetto, and those who perform well on the playground become legends. And most of them remain just that. Unable to overcome the drugs and poverty, they stay on the streets, where the only record of their greatness is the memories of the people who were lucky enough to see them. Below, I talk briefly about five of the greatest players never to make it. I'm not saying these are the five best, just that they deserve to be known. Earl Manigault, and Lloyd Daniels fans don't worry. They'll get their own biographies later. Curtis Jones - Curtis Jones (CJ) was a 5'10" guard out of Detroit. During the 1960's, CJ dominated courts in the Detroit area. He attended Detroit Northwestern High School, where he led his team in points and assists his senior year. In 1967, he hit a game winner over 6'9", future NBA great, Spencer Haywood to win the state championhsip. With an IQ of 73, CJ didn't stand a chance of making it to a major college, and stayed on the streets of Detroit, getting into crack. However, he promised his mother that he would come clean. When he died at the age of 50 in 1999, there wasn't a trace of drugs in his system. He had kept his promise. NBA Hall-of-Famer George Gervin, said this of CJ in an interview:

Extractions: It took 300 years to build the Russian empire and only one man to destroy it. Rasputin was the dissolute "holy man" whose healing powers made him part of the royal family...and whose exotic sexual magnetism enthralled and outraged the nobility. Alan Rickman (Die Hard) stars in this epic drama as the strange man who used his mysterious powers for both good and evil...and helped push a nation into revolution. Ian McKellen (And the Band Played On) and Greta Scacchi are the tragic Tsar and Tsarina, Nicholas and Alexandra. They defined "cool" in the '50s and '60s. They were Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr. and Peter Lawford, and their brash antics made life in the fast lane look like the only way to go. This candid, probing drama reveals the truth about these four superstars whose private lives were often at odds with their public images. With Don Cheadle, Angus MacFayden and Deborah Kara Unger.

Extractions: One of Sports Illustrated 's Top 100 Sports Books of All Time "The master prose stylist portrays parallel basketball worlds in New York City: Madison Square Garden, where the Knicks won the 19691970 championship, and the playgrounds of Harlem, where stars such as Earl (the Goat) Manigault burned brightly but too briefly." Sports Illustrated "The best description of basketball played in New York City streets during the sixties and seventies."Bill Bradley, The New Yorker . "Superb . . . [Axthelm] combines Knick history, player backgrounds, seasonal anecdotes and court triumphs with another phenomenoncity basketball in the crowded ghettoes of the nation. The areas he focuses on primarily are the asphalt playgrounds of Harlem and Bedford Stuyvesant. There basketball has its special code of behavior, its pecking order and its own culture heroes. . . . A few city playground aces have made it to college . . . , and a few have found an escape route to the Harlem Globetrotters or the Eastern League. But many others have become strung out on poverty or drugs or have been imprisoned. . . . The book offers absorbing insights into the most unique and gripping of all city sports."Rex Lardner, New York Times Pete Axthelm follows the 196970 season of the New York Knicks and provides a parallel focus on basketball as it was then played in the black neighborhoods of New York City.
