- Kenny Smith joins The Herd to talk the Golden State Warriors after they win their 4th NBA Championship in 8 years. Colin Cowherd asks Kenny whether he could have predicted the Warriors would be here at the start of the season. Plus, Kenny relives the first time he heard of Stephen Curry, and whether he knew the Warriors' star would be at the level he is today. They also discuss Kevin Durant, and whether the Warriors winning a championship without him makes his decision to leave for Brooklyn look like a bad one. Finally, the two talk movies, as Kenny breaks down his role in the Netflix Basketball film 'Hustle'.

Mark Jackson don’t get a lot of props for letting the world know that Steph and klay were going to be the best back court in nba history
He gets plenty of props for that lmao.
moody... even better shooter
He didn't use them that well.
@@jamesber722 The only reason Jackson is not coach of the Warriors right now is because he was being black mailed by a stripper he was cheating on his wife with. Mark had to finally call in the FBI because he paid her off once but came back for more. Mark was a man of god and a preacher, the Warriors got someone they thought would instill in these young players what a good man could be.
Shout out to Kenny for making sure to give Mark Jackson his just due. Great story!!
Mark Jackson put a confidence into those guys that was truly a gift to the world.
@@cyberft facts
he is a players coach lol

Kenny and Shaq was rolling with the Warriors from the beginning of the play-off based on their experience. C Barkley was totally against the Warriors from the beginning to the end and it didn't matter who they played. Congrats to GSW and Steph!!!
Barkley was against the DUBS since inception he knows basketball but doesn't like it's evolution typical old head
Charles doesn't like jump shooting teams...lol😆
I was so relieved to not have the Charles Barkley jinx infest my warriors
Guys the reason chuck don't like the GSW is because of their fans. Not because of some sort of hate
@@russelgemramirez8876 and because they've made him look stupid for saying a jumpshooting team wouldn't win a title. 4 titles later Barkley looks really dumb🤷🏾♂️
The Mount Rushmore of 3pt shooters is Steph Curry four times
No Rushmore is complete without Looney
🧢KLAY
Twice
Steph Curry is the Wilt Chamberlain of 3pt shooting
@@roronoazorro9509 nah
Because steph beat the rivals of his era multiple times ( lebron, kd)
He's the Jordan of 3pt shooting. Eye popping stats plus winning = Jordan
Nah Ben Simmons 4x
It must have been nice for Kenny to give analysis without the constant threat of getting absolutely roasted by Charles Barkley
Kenny hypes sht up to what it isn't tho lmfao I still love em all. He was talkin bout being in Hustle and how he's the main characters best friends n has hellla lines so he needed an acting couch cause it wasn't one of thise one line gigs... Mf had maybe 6 sentences as lines thats it lmfaoo
Lmao
lol
“Kenny bring me water”
Lives rent free in my head😂
@@aakashpathare5586 Love it
Gotta love the Warriors bro. They handled all the ups and downs like gs
When Durant went to the GSW KD was a great player, scoring wise, but we have to understand that it happened because Curry sacrificed and took a back seat because he was more concerned about the team's success than his personal gains.
I would not be surprised if Durant wound up back in Golden State.
That’s Steph’s best attribute… confidence, security. He don’t need to be “the man” to be validated. He’s secure in himself, he knows who he is, and he doesn’t have a fragile ego. He never got self conscious having KD around.
@@plainsimple244 Naw, he is to sensitive. Also I'm pretty sure he doesnt seem to like Steph for whatever reason. It eats at him people live Steph so much I think.
@Beery Preach Brother, only the haters use that narrative, that Steph took a back seat. If Steph had been injured, or not on that team, People would have seen the same KD that was in OKC, an Boston. KD is a great individual talent. For a sport like the NBA, that is a team Sport. KD doesn't get it done on the biggest stages, because he doesn't elevate the players around him like Steph does. With Warriors KD got to just go get buckets, with usually only 1 guy defending him. Even TY Lue said they blitzed Steph because they knew it would be their best chance at winning. Well they didn't shut him down, an he averaged around 30 a gm for the series. While helping KD, Klay an others get really good looks when they scored. Regardless the truth tho, haters are always gonna hate.
@@SteveJarekAll true and, because of those attributes, he also never resented KD taking the limelight, from a whole game chock full of iso's to the media attention he brought to himself because, well, he's KEVIN DURANT. To Durant's everlasting credit, he mentioned Curry's genuinely unique character...his selflessness, his devotion to teammates and dedication to help them prepare, with extra work or discussion. to win, and not care who gets credit, in several post game interviews over those two years.
I believe Steph Curry is one of those players bound for greatness. I'm sure his Dad Dell showed him how to do it right. The rest is Steph Curry. I believe at the end of an already amazing career he will go down as a top 10 greatness ever. The BEST pure shooter EVER. A great husband and father and son as well. A certified NBA Game Changer.
He is also one the best ball handler and dribller ever and finisher
Bound for? He’s been there.
I’m guessing the comments of “I have the 2 best shooters in history” sounded like a joke at the time. He was onto something
Let's stop talking about KD. He had the privilege of joining GSW and got some titles. But GSW could've done it without him.
Well if it makes you feel better, they're talking about KD with a pitiable tone and narrative. Like what Cowherd said, he was all about winning and he should have stayed with like-minded people instead of being bothered about him never really belonging with the Warriors or that he "cheated". Everyone in the Warriors, including Green, would have welcomed KD choosing to stay. But that didn't matter to him and he's living with it but I think he'll always be okay with it.
The best thing I could say about this title is that hopefully people learn something from it. It is possible to build a nucleus that has championship aspirations and keep it, and not simply trade away everything every off-season in order to win. You know what I'm talking about. Last year, they decided to retool, give a lot of playing time to a bunch of young guys and teach them the system and how to win. The next season, the old guys came back and as we all saw, they won the title.
I'm just hoping as the trio gets older and athleticism and injury free playing time decrease, they don't trade away youth and talent for another star for one more short term gamble at a title.
I think their young guys have enough talent that if the vets and coaches can keep them invested and interested, they will develop very well, stay a great team for 5 or 10 years more, and avoid the standard boom bust cycle most NBA teams go through.
@@v312ym34n_is_very_mean I definitely think this organization is smart enough but that takes a lot of luck
Well they have the best back court but game 5 especially some players stepped up!
I don't understand all this about KD.. why does anybody care? KD got free rings cause he wasn't playing iso ball and steph got doubled most of the time. KD wanted "his own team" - now he got it.
Kd was mvp twice..steph got free rings
@@xavierb9061 they just won against the Celtics, the team that swept kyrie and KD (on his own team), beat reigning NBA Champion and MVP, then beat the #1 seed in the East. All w/o KD. Great player but Never needed him.
@@lafayettemitchell9979 kd had 2 starters out ..celts healthy..klay hurt last year warriors lost playin to ja morant...difference playing tatum vs lebron.,,need kd to beat lebron.
@@xavierb9061 KD need Warriors more.than Warriors need KD..u need to understand that..like Draymond said..they win before without u..and they prove right now they can win after KD leave..KD is all time greats..but steph doesnt got free rings...its KD's
We also cooked him for joining the warriors. Now that he leaves people are saying “he never should have left”…… it’s a lose lose for him either way. Sad to see
I always love to hear Kenny's perspective.
im not surprised im shocked that the dubs beatdown the c's, i thought the c's were bigger stronger faster, but i was mistaken, i think curry won them the championship, down 2-1 and playing on the road against the c's, he put in a herculean effort to get the series back to 2-2, if they lost that game, i think we would have a different nba champion.
true .
Shout to Mark Jackson , u made us all believe
And I got to respect Steph Curry the original four Draymond Green Andre Iguodala and definitely Klay Thompson been there for all four titles 🏆🏆🏆🏆
Don't forget looney, I don't think he was there for the first one tho
Shaun Livingston also
Wow, great call and breakdown on Wiggins, Kenny..
Make no mistake about it. KD had a tweet all queued up for when the Warriors lost!
😅😅😅💯💯💯
"Delete draft"
KD lives rent free in y’all head shh insane 😂
@@mikejones1765 The Larry O'brien's living rent free. KD gotta pay up! LOL
I disagree. He might be anti-establishment many times but he's never anti-player. He would never disrespect brothers that won it all with him.
Warriors know how to win. They bounce back from bad games, and never make the same mistakes twice.
When they showed the Warriors in the preseason vs. Portland, I said this team is prepared to win and have a serious season. I saw the half court offense being ran, guys taking screening seriously, the depth and rebounding was there and then they made the extra pass while helping one another out defensively -- all in a preseason game...so I knew the Warriors were serious and then they just went through the season's ups and downs while getting it done when it mattered most... they had the championship formula already, they just plugged in guys that fit.
Add to that the little changes Kerr made during the regular season with starting lineups. Giving bench players big minutes to build confidence and get familiar with the plays. They were serious from day one.
@@djskillaz9861 Yeah, when you have a deep team, especially young, during the 82 game season, you have to play bench guys deep minutes to keep the game(s) flowing because you have to build confidence... Kerr didn't have to do that with Levingston, Barbosa, Spates, Ezeli, and others... even next season 2022-23, guys should come up big(er) than this season... I'm really looking forward to seeing that top pick Wiseman because he can shoot the 3 and post up... just needs to stay healthy being assertive... look for drama between he and Green because Green may be jealous of his position -- just saying... Green is like that with guys who are gifted and good, just harder on them because they are new.
As A WARRIOR'S fan I appreciate the time KD spent with us.
Colin gets the best guests.
good interview!
Shout out to Kenny Smith. Queens finest in the building.
Props for Kenny bringing up Mark Jackson. I still feel like it's his team and his warriors for some reason. Seems like it was stolen from him.
“I’m going to be in the White House w/these guys.” 😭😭😭 that hurt my basketball soul.
Obama was there back then.
Feel so bad for Mark Jackson🥺😞, he developed the entire GSW culture, he pushed the front office, so much and was overly aggressive to better the team that they fired him for asking for too much🤯🤯
@@NYCBX9 nah. He put down a great foundation and deserves massive credit, but I do not believe they become a dynasty without moving on from him
@@Rosecain27 Hahahah, wrong, they would of had 5 rings with Marc !!!!!!!
@@ktloz2246 would have* and they would’ve had minimum 5 with Kerr if they didn’t all get injured
I'm not going to lie,.. Hustle was an excellent movie
And Kenny did great. His acting was probably 90% natural.
@@BeSkeptical851 I a 100% agree with you..I was very surprised
Charles had me crying on ESPN but I love the contrast of Kenny’s breaks down 💯
Well said Kenny. I felt all series if we get similar amount and quality of shots as the celtics that the Dubs would win. Early in the series the fact that we had to work so much harder for good shots was concerning but what a turn around. Defense grew throughout the series, kept turnovers down, and got better and better shots...What a team, what a season!! Campeones!!!!
Wiggins straight up locked down Tatum, and smart was just an embarrassment to watch. Only Hosford and Brown actually played for the Celtics and i can't forget time lord, that dude gave me chills with every block. If Tatum and smart become better next year and Williams is healthy i see this being the finals again next year
I have been listening to your show and i find you a very intelligent, direct and fair person in all your comments. I just want to say something about steph curry that i never heard from anyone. This got to do with a finals mvp that everyone been making a big deal. To be honest i think 2015 when they won championship it should have been for steph. The 2 times kevin durant got the finals mvp one of that should have been for steph. Everybody agrees that he is the greatest shooter and change the game of basketball but he is always underrated because of his size. Durant can make an easy shot because of his height but curry will need to make all hard moves before he can make a shot out of double team or triple team impose on him by the opponent. He is so selfish that he let others scores. From the begginning he is always looked down by almost everyone in the media but god is so good that he elevates this guy.
I think u meant "UN-selfish" a few lines back.
@@lafayettemitchell9979 yes of course but i reverse for the people that always put him down specially haters and how steph answered them with the basketball.
In chest pieces, kd, leborn are the rooks, curry is the Queen!!! Curry is more than just a great player, he is a leader for successful team.
*CHESS*
Lebron & Steph are the same
🧢🧢🧢
I respect the way you do your thing Mr.Colin #🇯🇲
Kenny saw the warriors as contenders from early and Shaq of course .. he a warriors fan at this point
Watched movie tonight. Highly recommend. Really enjoyed it. K. Smith, pretty good actor.
Kenny, the instigator, what a great guy!
Stephen is already Greatest athlete of all time
I genuinely love every time the Golden State Warriors players who were coached by Mark Jackson always show him Respect and Love for their current championship run... 🙏 🤲 🙌 🙏
Kenny is the best!
I seem him in college and knew he were something that was going to change the game and make basketball ball fun to watch
Hey Kenny you were dope in that movie me and my wife really liked it
I saw Steph in college, he was good, could be the best player on a team but not really the team leader. I just didn't see this version of him until Steve Kerr got there and unlocked his true potential.
Mark Jackson is the one who did correction
@@jabulanichinkwitaphiri4370 mark jackson is overated there is a reason he is not a head coach since the dude was holding their potential back
@@jabulanichinkwitaphiri4370 Mark Jackson deserves his flowers but Kerr opened them up and instilled Spurs style ball-sharing basketball. This is fact
@@JDG707 Had Steve not come along then the Warriors just might still be fighting for that first ring playing ISO ball.
@@JonathanRodriguez-hw3iy No he wasn't holding them back. They were young and he gave them confidence. Why do idiots like you think Curry and the others wouldn't have naturally gotten better with or without Steve Kerr? It's a natural progression. Warriors would have won with just about any coach once the big 3 got in their primes. If Steve Kerr had taken the Knicks job, he would have been fired a long time ago.
Why are we stuck on kd. He left years ago. So much has changed not just in basketball but the world since he left. Let it go and move on. Everyone was mad when he went there but somehow are holding it more against him for leaving lol.
All because he stopped there favorite player from having a few more ring😂😂 glad he did it give them really something to cry about forever 😂😄😆
I was more hopeful that they would win in the playoffs and possibly win the first two series….the finals was a nice reward!
Kenny knows a lot about the game and the Wiggins part is straight facts
Kenny spoke straight truth, Mark Jackson to me is a prophet and really it was not for him, Golden state wouldn't be what they are now and Steph, Klay and Draymond have the upmost respect for him
Great show Colin…other shows before you are toxic at this point… this is real sports talk
davidson tournament run was incredible and everyone knew who curry was after that!
props to Coach Mark Jackson, he nurtured the Splash Bros 👌👌💕
Kenny said the magic number for Wiggins "17"
Cali , Title state ! 🙌🏻
Every time they win I feel more for Mark Jackson then KD that was a damnn shame
Klay, Draymond and Curry should take a picture with him. That would be great for the basketball and sports culture
Hustle was surprisingly a greatl movie
Greatest win 🏆 greatest game
Kenny!!!!!!
Steph curry was always the best player on the warriors
I dont feel bad for kd one bit, he was too anxious to go try and win a ring by himself, instead of staying where he could've gotten atleast 1 more by now. The Warriors are about the team kd is about himself.
Kenny is absolutely correct and that’s what makes GSW unstoppable. There’s no way to stop them from shooting, except to hope they miss while you try and play non targeted defense.
Did I mention you also have to pray your guys take their own shots too?
I don’t see anyone cracking them.
Smith is a basketball pro
Wiggins and Looney the bridge between youth and vets
Wiggins is a veteran
I think KD leaving might have ultimately been a good thing for the Warriors because it wound up validating the idea that the team can win through smart management and chemistry instead of just buying a bunch of established talent
Get what you're saying but disagree
@@jgod8463 Care to elaborate?
salary cap wise with KD, Draymont would probably be gone and the team would look much different. Folks need to stop with the what ifs with KD when they extended his stay as much as possible prior to his injury. He would have maybe stayed a yr or 2 top without his ACL injury and force the ownership for either Klay or Draymont to take on a SIGNIFICANT paycut just to have a decent roster after the starting 4...
@@Gus-xw9yn probably is a hypothetical. We don’t know
Great point
Yea they did mark jackson dirty
Jackson had his shots .Won absolutely NOTHING. There is NO trophy for "On the cusp". Kerr put HIS stamp on the team and won 4 of 6 titles. It was Kerr's system, his changes, that made the Warriors players realize their full potential. Mark Jackson failed in that area. Just like it took Joe Torre to turn the Yankees into a dynasty. Now, stop crying already.
I knew Steph was special when he played vs Duke
Experience mattered!
Imagine KD going back to Warriors again lmao
The only right time for that is when both he and the Core 3 guys of GSW are in the twilight of their careers, coming off the bench to keep the fire alive and pass on the torch to the next in line.
KD was not the best player on the team. Steph was. See what happen when KD got blitz this year. He doesnt control the tempo of a game.
Why do I get the feeling that when Chuck and Shaq get into a nasty argument on TV, Kenny is secretly whispering into Chuck's ear, adding fuel to the fire.
🤣😂🤣
Tnt guys are best when it comes to analysis also.
We run the west and we bringing it back next year GO WARRIORS!!!!!!!!!!!

Bring kenny his water
No one mentions Mark Jackson. It is all about Steve kerr
Virtually Everyone mentions Mark Jackson
Its sad that Mark Jackson gets passed over for coaching jobs when he set that franchise that was dead in the water on the path they are now. Not saying Steve isnt a good coach, Mark Jackson started it.
Nothing against Mark but all he did is let them play Steve actually taught them how to win!
What did he start? Lmao, he didn’t draft them or anything

@@Bigmike55626 Jackson started them on TEAM DEFENSE, Kerr took it from there with a motion offense.
Wiggins is now so valuable to the Golden State that his contract, that media used to call too expensive, will be renewed even with a year still to go.
Looney, Poole and GP II might all get some increment in salaries if they are to be kept happy at the Bay. Hope the front office will dare eat more into the luxury tax. Or do good negotiations with these players to commit to team for at least another season.
Wiggs is getting a nice raise for his extension as he should be paid as the 2nd best overall player on a championship team!
Às much as the haters might not wanna hear this but wiggs deserves to get a close to max deal when he resigns!
The negotiations will be interesting is Wiggs worth 40mil YES but to the Warriors is another story he's still in his prime we probably can get Poole for 25 GP FOR 10 PORTOR made his loot vet min Kuminga Moody and Wise have a few years to go by that time we'll have to worry about the original core guys but Lacob keeps his bag open to put trophies in 🏆🍾💰
In exchange Klay will get traded. Wiggins has shown himself to be a better 2nd guy to Steph. Klay is banged up and he will just decline from here on out.
@@dudutsulugulugan2911 u crazy man they don’t win without klay they never have .
@@BonesDMS4life Wiggins will get extended. You really think GSW will keep paying klay who's on the obvious decline now when Wiggins, GP and Poole play his roles better and overall cheaper.
As long as he playing with Kyrie where basketball isn't his number 1 focus KD not winning in New York.
Regret is the word when describing Durant
Tell him Kenny make him understand these team
Mark Jackson got rob.
These guys all know KD is sensitive. If Kenny had said yes to the question about KD, Durant would NEVER give Kenny a good interview ever again lol
They need to put a monument in GS of Mark Jackson
Further proof that Mark Jackson deserves another shot at being a coach
LMFAO....Stop nuthugging already
Never forget Mark Jackson’s legacy and obvious realization the man should still be coaching in the NBa
The problem with jackson was his religious fanaticism that permeated the Warriors lockeroom. That and he couldn't create a decent offensive strategy. His defense schemes were top notch however
@@stevenmeyer9674 players pray. So what, Coach goes to church, so what, Derek Carr of the Raiders is religious, so what. Your repeating a narrative that’s unrealistic, we’re all individuals, you have to man up and respect that,

They keep diminishing Steph over and over it's gross. Steph has always been best player on that team even WITH KD.
Steph was his usual great self but the reason they won was Kerr's mentorship and the fruit it produced in Andrew Wiggins.

I thought nthe Warriors might've been too young, I don't think they're too old, I was worried about klay's injury, but Steph and Klay don't look old to me. I was more worried about their size, still wish they'd shore that up more, still got to see what Wiseman can do
Kenny was actually great in Hustle. go watch it guys it's a great movie by Adam Sandler
this video shows that Mark Jackson is the blueprint and the founder of this Warriors dynasty

@ do you even know how to read or use common sense? what part of my comment is me crying? who hurt you today? did your dad touch you a bit much when you were a child or something?
The reason they stopped turning it over is Kerr gave the ball to Steph, and ran the offense through him.
And no Kd was not the best player. His stats were barely over Steph and he was single covered while Steph was doubled.
I'm tired of all of these media analysts starting off their segments with "I chose Golden State in 6 but....." You flip flopped all series long.
Marc Jackson was a huge fan of Curry even during his Davidson years and he points out not only Curry's shooting, but his high IQ for the game...and if you don't like that, you don't like NBA basketball LOL
SO ?
Basically BrooklyN Nets vs Golden State in the Finals will be something FuN to watch if it happens
I still feel like Mark Jackson got a raw deal and Kerr got at least one of the titles Jackson should have had. They made a deep playoff run the year before they won it. We'll never know of course.
they lost in the first round to the clippers the year before
GOAT bus rider makes an appearance
I give the nod to steph as the better player due to leadership, decision making and ability to maximize the players around him through use of a system and his offensive game. Kd, while individually great does not really possess those things which is why it's harder for him to power a title worthy team.
Bro KD tweet when Celtics beat warriors first game I don’t see him back 🤣🤣
Haha. Yup.
Colin on his channel said that he's heard from people he knows that KD was text messaging sports people and asking them "well, what if the warriors don't win?" Damn, smh, lol.
Adam Sandler used to say this to me all the time...
Steph was the best player on that team, stop it. Steph is Da GOAT!!!!
