Manute Bol vs. Celtics (1988)

[@polskandori]

I liked Manute Boll so much. He was my idol. I still remember that I could not believe in my eyes when I first saw his photo. He is so tall and has so long legs. Thank you so much for this video.

[@stephanieblackley9037]

Rest In Peace Maunte Bol.😇😇😇😇😇😇😇

[@ifeeyorecouldrap]

this is the first vid i could find of him and muggsy

[@UnionKid15]

RIP Manute, thanks a lot for posting this video.

[@rockvilleraven]

Problem with Manute was that he couldn't bulk up which you need to do to be a Center in the NBA.

[@hothamandfauri]

man if manute bol woulda really buffed up and gained some weight and muscle he coulda been a a beast on the low block !! imagine if he where like 325lbs

[@easymoneycroomy]

hothamandfauri Maybe bulk up until 350 pounds.

[@Karemaker]

You have to be freakishly gigantic to stand out on an NBA court like Manute did. He made the 7 footers look utterly average sized.

[@US1981]

Sudan's warrior RIP!

[@renatodelrosario5422]

manute who played as a goalkeeper in soccer learned baskeball for only a year in college and then drafted by the nba the nxt year.

[@gaucho5073]

Hey @LamarMatic , do you have that epic game from Manute Bol from February 26, 1987, Bullets 100 x 94 Pacers? Where the legend Manute Bol played 47 minutes and had 19 rebouds, 15 blocks and 10 points??

[@lokang20]

damn what a great defender, he is fast for a big man

[@BloodyandEnchained]

i dont know if it were the shorts, but in the 80s, everyone had tiny legs

[@UnionKid15]

Awesome stuff old Mike Gorman too haha thanks for the post..!!!

[@moviehypno23]

Watching Bol play makes my legs hurt.....as I'm typing this.

[@jjs777fzr]

The fact C’s put Artis on the team was basically saying they did not care about winning games. I realize Artis had something in the 70’s but thats about it.

[@mobetter25]

You must be a casual fan, Boston was winning then.

[@demonative9945]

Fun fact, manute actually couldn’t open his hands all the way, due to arthritis, which made it hard for him to palm the ball and catch quick passes.

[@oakmase]

hi, on which date was this game played ? thx.

[@smartbrother1985]

funny they had the tallest player in the nba and the shortest on the same team

[@skinnyboy1179]

Muggsy Bogues n Manute Bol with the same team, crazy idea 😂

[@becciatio]

manute number 1

[@antoniogarciarodriguez5741]

BOL - BOGUES The COOLEST DUO playing un te NBA

[@raffaele_esse]

He didn't take a fucking rebound!

[@dutchpot2]

R.I.P Manute Bol

[@TheRiptide100]

Listen to that 1988 horn at 0:06. listen to it now. Times change.

[@mythtek1]

Are you kidding me? Did you not watch the footage in its entirety? His presence made it very difficult to score, you can see how the big three thought twice a few times about shooting it, after some failed attempts, the celtics were one of the best teams then with the Lakers it was only a six point game, yea offensively Bol wasnt the man

[@BCH19821091]

No i was wrong its clearly 87-88 Only player who ever bothered kevin mchale is manute bol Kevin McHale best PF of all time

[@guitarsANDcars39]

@DetroitSuperman23 what are u talking about? parrish blocked BOL. Parrish!!! THE REJECT! hes not calling him the reject

[@BCH19821091]

FYI: this game was 89-90 What an odd guy he beat his wife to near death yet inversely gave all, yes ALL of his NBA earnings to Sudan and then almost died in a freak DD accident Manute is the greatest one dimensional player in NBA, MLB, NFL or MLB history

[@TOGGGAA1]

This is definitely not a highlight reel for bol

[@TheSamps0n]

how did those legs not snap

[@Mr.Plant1994]

Watching manute pat that guys head was hilarious

[@kevonfreeman8404]

Obviously he wasn’t the best player he had no experience but what about his good games,him using damn near all of his money for his people?he wasn’t the greatest of all time but what he did can never be forgotten RIPMANUTE🙏

[@MrDarkKobe24]

R.I.P

[@jrzy49]

Lol- Artis Gilmore looks like Gary Coleman next to Manute Bol. Mugsy looks like an infant baby

[@beccciatio]

grande Manute.

[@Ralphie5023]

These tall freaks just never worked out . They were too slow and awkward .

[@marzilyas]

old ass Artis Gilmore

[@ericwright2594]

Rip manute bol

[@stephaniemalley5694]

106 to 100 Celtic won game

[@Chilltown95]

[@brentisverycool]

[@saintmxntana8747]

[@Lucas_Dior]
