How Good Was Kenny "The Jet" Smith Actually?

Who's career should we make a video on next?

Kenny, you NYC guys been talking smack since the 70's! "I'm from Brooklyn son" and all that whackness. I'm from Jersey just like Rick Barry, Tim Thomas, Alvin Attles, Gary Brokaw, Kelly Tripucka, Jay Williams, Shaq, Milt Wagnee, DaJuan, Al Harrington and Kyrie. Did I forget Mike O'Koren? Nope!

Don't know who told you you all were the "center of the universe" but my guys from Jersey used to go Cromwell Gym in S.I. every Friday night and WIPE THE FLOOR with you loudmouths! We won every game! Didn't DaJuan Wagner drop 55 at the Rucker?!! Didn't Dr. J and Tiny Archibald come to East Orange and play at Elmwood Park? And didn't Brian Taylor play with Dr. J?!! Guess what? They're all from NEW JERSEY son! My coach coached him. And if you thonk I wasn't a superstar, then the sun comes up at night.

Mecca of basketball my ass. You ever play in the Cage at 6th street in the Village? Whatever...Hey is Al Harringtom from New Jersey? I believe so Wyle E. Coyote! 'Nuff said.

Put some respect on Kenny’s name!

Kenny was one of the reasons we almost had 0 championships and not more than 2! Kenny was a scrub!

Plumbers era😂😂😂

Plumbers😂😂😂

😮

His famously crooked knees- that's wrong.

I have a much better voice than you and would like to volunteer it to narrate youre videos and will only ask for 15% of earnings. Be in touch and let me know. Your voice isnt suited for narration.

Even in an era where the high shorts were still around, Kenny's still managed to look about an inch higher lmao.

Between his playing career and his longevity on inside the NBA, the Jet is GOATed

Kenny is a legend in his own mind, lol.

The NBA surprises me how did he not get an All Star once?

And Shaq shat on that guy, saying he "was never close" to being an all-star. Damn I dislike that chubby fella.

He was one of the best sharpshooters of his era. Generally speaking, if a player is a starter on a championship team, he's probably pretty good.

so basically hakeem was only seen as a good player because of kenny

It’s crazy to see people talk about Kenny when clearly they probably weren’t even alive when he was hooping nor are they from the city. Kenny is legend McDonalds all-American got busy at UNC then lead USA to a gold medal at one point Average 17 and 7 for the season and he was no slouch on those championship rocket teams he may not have been a super star but they don’t win without him.

The man was a dog

Didn’t know Kenny held his own like that

Impressive! I never knew all this. I respect him even more now!

He was just really fast. His stats show he was mediocre at best with career totals of 12.8/2/5.

Chuck will have you think Kenny was trash. He was an actual bucket

Kenny can back up all that shit talking 😂

Not aa good as HE thinks he was!😂😂😂🙄🙄🙄

The main issue Kenny has is he acts like he was THAT DUDE and so people overcorrect in response and pretend he was JUST A GUy

Many may not have known a lot of about Kenny's very very decent player career because unlike Shaq, you do not hear referencing his two rings on every other episode!

Kenny was no All-Star but we not gone act like he was just a bum,he was a solid role player

Imagine if Kenny play in this era.

Bro stop talking like that

Kenny in todays game averages 21+ points and /8-10 assists a game

Impressed with Mr Smith not allowing knock kneesism to hold him back😂😂😅

"The older he gets, the better he was" - Charles Barkley

Kenny is Top 275 players in the NBA

It’s great to see someone giving Kenny his flowers. He was a great player and even better analyst.

Kenny was legit. Would be a superstar if he played in the 3ball era.

Inside the NBA retired his jersey on a clothesline, and the jersey being retired was actually Tracy McGrady. 🤣

Kenny deserves Better. Glad he got his flowers in this video. 🛩️

Kenny smith is the sharpest dressed of any nba player. His sense of style is 🔥

Growing up in the 80s & 90s we all knew Kenny. I was from Queens. My Knicks lost to him. It sucked. He COULD tell Chuck & Shaq that he knocked them out of the playoffs if he was petty like that but he don't.

Only Shaq petty.

Kenny's trajectory would have been so different he wasn't drafted by the Kings

I always forget that Drexler got a ring.

if his forehead wasn't permanently wrinkled i migh accept him.. but i always though he sucked back in the day.. he'd have no rings without Dream, who was the MJ of the center position

my fault kenny i wasnt familiar with your game.

That is all great and everything but you gotta run through the tape

Kenny's role on the Repeat Rockets is legit underrated, especially when Sir Chuck is hitting him with the Hakeem "get me some water" line

Good Roll player in both basketball and commentary.

Average players at best. Outstanding analyst.

Kenny even took a ring from Shaq.

They be playing with Kenny but he was drafted 6th overall.

Kenny was just clowned on because Shaq and Chuck are all-time greats.
