Kenny Anderson: The NEW YORK BASKETBALL LEGEND with one of the TIGHTEST HANDLES IN NBA HISTORY | FPP

- Опубліковано 17 лис 2023
- One of the greatest players to ever come out of New York, Kenny Anderson was a high school phenom at Archbishop Molloy under coach Jack Curran, where he joined elite company with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the only players to be all-city in all 4 years. He went on to Georgia Tech and formed the “Lethal Weapon 3” trio alongside Dennis Scott and Brian Oliver and helped lead Georgia Tech to the first Final Four appearance in program history. He followed up an incredible freshman year with an even better sophomore year and by the time the 1991 NBA draft came along, he would be picked 2nd overall by the New Jersey Nets. The Nets already featured Derrick Coleman and Drazen Petrovic and by 1993, it seemed to be only a matter of time until they were among the league’s elite. Sadly, during the summer of 1993, Petrovic was killed in a car accident. Anderson remained on the Nets for a few more seasons, but the relationship slowly soured. He would be traded to the Charlotte Hornets in 1996, then sign with the Portland trailblazers going into ’97 where he was one of many great acquisitions, alongside Rasheed Wallace and Isaiah Rider. Anderson would have one of the best years of his career, but by the second half of the ’98 season, he had been traded to Boston to play with Antoine Walker and Paul Pierce. Anderson didn’t have much success in Boston, aside from being part of the surprising 2002 Boston Celtics team who made a run to the Eastern Conference Finals. Anderson would spend the final years of his career as a journeyman until he was out of the NBA by 2005. Kenny Anderson had lofty expectations and wasn’t able to live up to them, but that doesn’t change that he was one of the league’s top point guards for a few years in the mid 90s with his elite ball handling and playmaking, and if circumstances would have been different, Kenny Anderson may have seen himself in the all time conversation.

A lot of great players in 90s who don’t get recognition
Won't lie I was in love with those old nets teams
I always say one of the most underrated what if's in NBA history are those Anderson Colman petrovic nets TEAMS had Daly not retired early and had petrovic not passed they would have given those bulls teams all they wanted
Heck yeah ! Drazen was incredible...
Kenny Anderson was 🔥🔥💯 and still one of the great legends of all time.
One of my favorite players ever. To me he had the best dribble I've ever seen and alot of his passes were just insane feeds. Out of nowhere he would spoon feed his teammates. He could also stop on a dime and stick it. Poetry in motion the whole game. He was only 6 foot 1 and less than 170lbs but could get anywhere on the court.
The Nets were a very strong team when they had Kenny Anderson, Dražen Petrović and Derrick Coleman.
If Petrović had not died in the accident, the history of the Nets would have been very different.
The East was very strong then. Honestly they would've probably made it to the 2nd round once or twice but that's about it.
He died 93 Jordan retired a few months later. It a great what if
factz...they were on the rise and had a good core
@@terrancesmith428They didn't have a lot of depth, but who knows how good Drazen becomes. If he lives and DC and Kenny actually play to their potential instead of being immature, petulant malcontents who knows how far they would have gone?
@@MrOctober44 R.i.p to Drazen Petrovic and Reggie Lewis but I think they peaked right there in '92 and '93.
Dude, you get me with nostalgia every time. I remember all these guys.
That's the goal, man. Appreciate the support!
17:25 As a Seattle-born in 1973 Sonics and Blazers fan, I LOVE that you showed FIVE player stats! Goodness, I brood over the chance they had at a championship. Pain is being a die-hard Blazers fan.
The Queens POINT GOD!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the Kenny Anderson video! He was nice.
First viewer....YES!!! I remember Kenny at GT. He was crazy good.
I felt that Yes!!!! 😁😁😁
Stellar
The Magic Man is my favorite player ever.
Jason Kidd was the best high school player I saw play in person.
In regard to other point guards I admired Rod Strickland, Kenny Anderson, Tim Hardaway and Stephon Marbury skills too.
national geographic said god and reincarnation are BOTH REAL so they PROBABLY are
I had a Kenny Anderson champion jersey as a kid. Also a sweet Dana Barros 76ers jersey- the one they wore for only 1 or 2 seasons with the banner and stars under "Sixers". Those are hard to find today. Wish I still had it.
Bring back our Sonics!
Good content..you gotta do one on Charles Oakley and Rex Chapman...
Thank you so much for those great videos man, I like everyone! A lot of great players I was close to forget about. The 90s are my favorite decade of basketball! Keep on doing your thing.
I agree. I remember Kenny Anderson well. Great videos respecting the forgotten greats.
I would love to see guys like Kenny Anderson, Mark Price, Kevin Johnson, Dana Barros, Rod Strickland, and Mahmoud Abdul Rauf play in todays game with a green light to shoot whenever and from wherever they wanted with the spread court. They would of put up huge numbers!
I love the players you choose to cover because it always makes me wanna watch highlights for days on them. Keep up the great work!
Kenny with the Nets was a problem...I felt like if Drazen Petrovic hadn't got killed in that tragic car accident, the Nets woulda been a contender by the mid 90s. They had a nicee core
there were no contenders in the East it was Chicago then everyone else til Mike retired & came back
@@cmn225 I don't agree. Early 90s, there was New York, Cleveland, Atlanta, Detroit, Boston etc
@@Classicbasketballdvds and they all got cooked by Mike & Pip
@@cmn225 factz
@@Classicbasketballdvds i mean i was born in '97 so i can't really say but who honestly believed any of those teams had a chance? maybe NY but that's it
My father took me to.see him at Molloy in '89 and then we went to see him at the Meadowlands a few times when he played for the Nets. He was like an artist on the court, alot of fun to watch.
Kenny Anderson was nice!! One of the most tremendous talents at the point guard position!
Great idea! Thanks for reminding folk that there were/are many more outstanding players other than MJ and LBJ.
Used to watch him play at the Los Battalion In Queens, CHIBBS was the truth🏀👑💪🏾
The move he put on bobby Hurley I watched that game on a Monday night on ESPN
I believe he was on the NBA Jam roster.
Kenny Anderson was a much heralded New York point guard following in the footsteps of Kenny Smith, Pearl Washington( RIP), Mark Jackson, and Rod Strickland. He was big time at Georgia Tech. In the NBA he struggled. He was small and couldn't put on weight. He was only about 160lbs and would get taken advantage of defensively.
As a young NBA fan, I really enjoyed watching Anderson play with the Nets.
Handles don’t mean flashy dribbling. It means taking care of the ball and helping you make the best play. And in the case I’m going A.i and Stockton for best handles ever
You do a great job showing love speaking of my guy Josh Howard needs some.
An Icon, NYC Legend 🏀🏀🏀🏀
Excellent job 👍🏾
Kenny Anderson also had terrible incident with a fan that was caught on video during the NBA strike. A young fan asked for his autography and Kenny just blew him off. It was a very bad look for KA
Was in Tecmo nba basketball on nes.😢 I feel old now.
Need a vid on AK-47 he was an underrated defensive monster
Lefrak City
Queens, very own .👑 💯✔️👍🏿
I loved Kenny Anderson on nba live 95
Thank you 🙂
Imagine if Drazen had lived and Kenny and DC weren't immature malcontents
Anderson had theat perfect NYC drip. Tha god was truly NIICE.
im just happy he got to sign a big contact before he got hurt
Can you do a video on Andre Miller? He definitely is forgotten
To me, Anderson was the PG who showed NY PGs are nothing special. He was super hyped
all flash no jumper/inefficient
Nah that would be Telfair.
So no one else looked up who Rodney Monroe was?
You do such a great job on all these profiles. All guys I grew up with admiring and you do them such proper justice with how thorough you are. Thank you for putting in the work to bring me nostalgia bombs 🫡
Do Walt Frazier No One Talks About How Good He Is He’s Barely Talked About
Skillz
Kid from Kentucky rob dill reminds me of Kenny
Alex Smith next please
It's his fault "Tammy" is still a thing.
I hate Tammy Anderson. It's one thing to screw over her ex-husband. But, she's SO proud of it, hence her "HIS CASH" on her license plate. REAL mature, and way to be the bigger person.
Mahmoud Abdul Rauf next?
👏
I remember Kenny the most as a rocket
Wrong Kenny that's Kenny Smith you talking about
Wrong Kenny bro
That was Kenny "The Jet" Smith, another New York basketball legend who helped the Houston Rockets to two straight NBA championship rings. 🏀💯
please tell me did you know that in 95 the defensive player of the year was dikembe mutombo mvp was david robinson and finals mvp was legend hakeem olajuwon
Question! When Jordan retire the first time and the bulls got richmond or Jimmy Jackson would they have won another championship? I believe that they would've
No way. Maybe with Richmond they make it in 94' but lose to Houston
please tell me if you know that in 94 the defensive player of the year mvp and finals mvp were awarded to legend hakeem olajuwon
He deserves as much respect as Marbury he had the same career
no he didn't
Make a Danny granger vid next
Rod Strickland.
He should have been the next Isiah Thomas.
No you didn't???!!! Yes you did!!!
Steph looked up to him even wore his hair cut
Do a Vin Baker video
I remember a time when NYC would produce a bevy of quality point guards. Then it became, what the hell happened? The last decent one I recall was Sebastian Telfair...
I’d say Tinsley. He had the handles, but couldn’t shoot worth anything.
He couldn’t go right?
New Jersey would have been the bulls rival of petro lived and the trio stayed together
hell no they would've gotten cooked like everybody else
Like half the coaches that coached in the 90s were just awful lmaooo
Pooh Richardson
Wonder how his game would have translated now, seeing as he can’t really shoot. I think he would have been a superstar in the 80s.
Can u please do Chris Gatling?
