Could 'KENNY ANDERSON' Have Been The G.O.A.T Point Guard? Stunted Growth
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 ноя 2020
- In the 90s, Kenny Anderson was the mold of what a Point guard was supposed to be. He's from the mecca of basketball at its height, New York City, where expectations for guards came with the territory. He went on to become a star in college, and #2 pick in the NBA draft. Success didn't stop there. In his 3rd season, he became an allstar and looked to be living up to the expectations. What happened from there? Did he lose his work ethic? Hoop politics? Also, did he go broke at some point? Let's get into it.

Did Kenny Anderson Live up to the expectations? Thank you guys!
Nah he didn't..off the court and mentality..gets in the way alot!!!..nah.. thank you!!
FYI he’s the head coach at Fisk Univeristy. Check him out on Twitter. He’s pretty active. twitter.com/chibbs_1?s=21
Well he made it to be a Allstar but maybe others expected he would be a H.O.F, but he had a stellar 14yr career for his height and size.Kenny was one of my favorite lefty's behind NickVanExcel but Andersen stlye dribbling Down the court looked the prettiest in that early mid90s . He was a solid PG before the league got soft and started living off of 3pointers
I subscribed again. You really improved your content!!!!
You could do a whole video on why NYC high school legends, especially PGs, seem to struggle in the NBA.
In college, Kenny was comparable to Nas. Basketball genius with an effortless type of talent. Made it look so easy. The NBA demands even the prodigies work hard to develop and expand. Great video!
young Kenny compared to young Nas might be the perfect comparison!
Accurate!
Great Comparison.
Never nice comparison
@@amunraadeabraham5303 no he isn't.
Kenny Anderson was that ninja on the court. I remember he punished Bobby Hurley he had him running around in circles with his handle.
I grew up imitating Kenny Anderson on the basketball court. He's my favorite college basketball player ever and one my favorite NBA players ever. I use to work on my handles because of Kenny Anderson. I believe he has a powerful testimony and story to inspire others. Kenny will always be a legend in my eyes!
Same here famo.
Anderson was special in high school and college... he was truly miles ahead of his peers. Superb passing ability, he incarnated NYC basketball
Crazy because he allowed them all to catch up. But hey, he lived and he learned. Salute to a legend.
Facts
The Nets had a young up and coming team with DC, Kenny, and Petro. As a Knick fan, I honestly thought they were the future team of NY/NJ area. Then few years later, they were all gone, with Coach Daley retiring, Petro killed in a car accident, and both DC and Kenny being traded. I always wondered about what could have been with this team had they all stayed together. One of the greatest what if's of the 90s.
Yep...
Man, I've always loved K.A, once I learned the depth of what he really went through in his life, mad, mad, respect
STROMILE SWIFT WE NEED IT BIG HOMIE FOR THE CULTURE 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
Kenny Anderson can play forreal back then, he was nice! Unfortunately, his NBA career didn’t last long but he’s still a legend to me and I have his swingman Nets jersey 💯
Kenny put on for the city in hs and college. Lethal Weapon 3. He had UNLV shook. Best PG I've in seen in person NYC.
It would interesting if you covered his teammate, Derrick Coleman, next.
Think the exact same thing
both all stars in 94 but were not great as people think had the talent but in retrospetrive people will think they are underated like marbury francis which is far from the truth
@@gangtime8705 talent to be all world talents..HOF type talent
👌🏾
😂😂 if you not from the mitten they won’t understand
Kenny Anderson, Derrick Coleman, and Drazen Petrovic could have changed the league as a trio.
Broooo I know, that team could of gave the bulls a run for their moneyyyy
@Jbiz80 that trio was sure fun to watch. Not sure they had what it took to build a dynasty but it would have been a good ride.
Man. I grew up watching 80's and 90's basketball. Best era in my opinion. That trio would have been lethal.
nj nets at its best well besides jason kidd, VC and Marbury
but i think u forgot to add nets legend keith van horn.
@@Oldschool1943 van horn was far from a legend
Gave Bobby Hurley the business
I still watch that move he did on him
Facts , now that was handles.
@@zig8nor412 you should have seen what he did to king rice in high school
Thank you for a very insightful and respectful piece on King Kenny.
Growing up in his era, there was no internet, you tube videos and other social media hype machines that make a player that can dunk the second coming of Jordan.
Back then, you had to be nice. Word of mouth was everything, and the whole world knew of Kenny Anderson.
When me and my middle school friends get together and play domino’s and talk talk everything sports, his name as a bust and clown always comes up.
Very few know of the inner demons he fought daily and continues to do so. We’d all love to relive our youth, knowing what we know today. But you live the life you’re given.
Kenny has a good heart, always has. My salute to the real King of New York.
I luv 90% of 90s point guards. From Jason Kidd Mookie Kevin J. Kenny A. The Glove MBogus Terrell Brandon Rod S. NVExel n Damon Stoudamire
Penny Hardaway??
Tim Hardaway??
Chris Jackson??
@@eaakh5105 I love 90%🏀⛹🏾♂️💯
Gary Payton, rod stricknyne, avery Johnson , Terry Porter, Mark price, Iverson ,Stockton, marc Jackson ------
90% but you only named a few?
His behind the back was the best I remember he made joe dumars fall out of bounds
I appreciate this joint JC, My dad told me he used to bet on the street games back in the day Kenny Anderson was the guy back then. He gave me the whole rundown of his story, it really stuck with me on his childhood and shows me how delicate youth can be. He gave Bobby Hurley and Duke dat WORK. And with a bit more patience would be and ATG. I’m proud of how far he’s come from what he faced. Salute to Kenny
Meet him at the los battalion rec center on woodhaven Blvd....when I was 14 in 89...kool dude I used to wear #12 because of him....
Me too..... s/o #12
Never ever allow yourselves to forget how badly he behind-the-back crossed up Bobby Hurley at home against Duke. 😱🤢🤮🥴
Nasty!
Hurley still have nightmares about that move and game
Rock a by baby he did it in Broad Daylight
@@sherrodgreen5113 should call that move "new jack city". 😆
@@TheBackOfTheClassroom YEs Sir!!!!
Brother Kenny is coaching at Fisk University, he's bounced back. God Bless Him.
Actually, Kenny wanted to attend Georgetown since his Sophomore year. Kenny used to wear a Gtown cap at school. However, Coach Thompson would send an assistant to see him instead of going in person which Kenny was turned off!! Kenny even said, if Thompson came to see him, he would have easily committed there. Kenny, Mourning and Mutombo would have won a Championship together.
Saw him play as a freshman in hs vs Maliki Sealy & Tolentine hs. Was amazing to watch & had the potential to be the next Isaiah Thomas. Still had a great career considering.
Malik
As a kid growing up in nyc and playing organized summer and winter basketball I played for the Vanguard oilers in a many tournaments and kenny played against us and he did his thing he was a great player and needs to be remembered as such
Imagine if the nets could of had this line up (PG. Kenny Anderson) ( SG. Drazen Petrovic) (SF. Oscar Schmidt) PF. (Derrick Coleman) (C. Jayson Williams)
Lineup of death
Ppl dont know schmidt, actually turned down the Nets an the pacers cause he did not want to lose his eligibility to remain an amateur to be able to rep his country in the Olympics.....now that Patriotism.......but like you said that would gave been a squad......👍🏀⛹️♂️
@@mikete2223 hell yes bro
I went from collecting NY Post clippings of Kenny to playing against him once at Molley. He was by far the best player I’d ever played against. Fast forward several years and he was at a club I was working security for with about 20 people. You’re right about him taking care of his people which can suck you dry real quick. I was so surprised though that he didn’t light up the league because he had so much promise. But overall, he’s a really good dude. I hope he pulls through also. Great piece!
Do Derrick Coleman his teammate in my opinion could have been the greatest power forward ever
Man hell no
@@ProdbyGrimeyred you dont know basketball than he was more versatile handle jumper everything hes still the only one who dunked on Shaq and embarrassed him by waiving his finger
bully lmfaoo I'm a go to ya ig page and harass u about this comment
@@ProdbyGrimeyred youtube the only man to ever dunk on shaq
@@bronxbully6261 u went to Truman or Smith because neither of those schools produced basketball players😂😂😂😂😂
That was a DOPE vid bro. I've always believed he could have been an all time great but knew it had to be much more behind the scenes. Great work 💯
Mad respect to how you point out these stunts but do so in a respectful way. Much respect to Kenny. Awesome video keep up the great content it’s a true highlight for me when I am on RUclips and I get notifications now
Are we just going to omit Kyrie godfather Rod Strickland when it comes to PG’s?? Rod was colllldddd, and him and Kenny use to battle it out!!
Good choice but maybe not stunted. Rod had a great career and was robbed to never make an all star team.
@@7thirdeye you’re absolutely correct Mr Blue especially with his work at Kentucky with Coach Cal!
Facts
I followed Strickland since his days at Depaul in the chi he was a solid pg
Yes he was!!!
1:00 to skip the first invideo ad.
Big Kenny Anderson fan ever since he was at Georgia Tech, I honestly believe if he had the right coach, he would of been an Hall of Famer and NBA champion....Dude was so talented.
This is one of the better episodes. Wow - i never knew Kenny went through so much BS. Damn man. This one really touched me, JC!
13:32...I remember that rebbok commercial!....his mom was in it with Sam Cassell mom they were sitting at a table in the diner talking about there boys!...Kenny's mom said "I love it when he steals the ball".....Classic!👏
Stunted you a bad man for this one. I'm only in my early 30s but I remember the Kenny and big Derrick nets from elementary school. He was cold. And a lefty. My coach used to say being a lefty makes your game so much more versatile.
Kenny Anderson aka Chibbs ( nick name) I think he lived up to his expectations he made it too the league and balled on a elite level in college and in the league. I think coach not having coach Chuck Daly in NJ any longer was the first step towards his stunted growth. Fun fact when Michael Jordan retired the first time the following season Kenny made the all star team and got the most all star votes that year..I agree he loved his hood and friends and off the court distractions played a large part in his career turning out how it did. The playing for alot of teams if the talent was not there they would not have traded for him and some of those situstions you have to look at who the coach was and who he had to play with. if you playing with teammates that feel they are the main man or should be the main man that hinders you, if your play style is one way but the coach has a style he wants played but its not to your strength that can hinder you as a player also. then add the off the court things he was into... I have always been a fan of kenny Anderson those handles and passing skills along with the nack to get to the basket was nice. if he played in the modern era he would be one of the best no doubt.. salute to Mr Chibbs hopefully his journey in life continues to go upward
Big Bro you was the biggest fan of his.
I would like to see Terrell Brandon my dude
Big facts
Hell yea
So underrated back in the 90s
His growth wasn't stunted. He had a career 98 percent of the people who ever played in the league wish they had. He wasn't a high lottery pick like Kenny Anderson.
Yes ! I second this ! Was a fan and used to collect his cards as a kid.
Kenny is doing very well in life. He has a great relationship with most of his children, especially his youngest Kenny Jr, and his step daughter whom he and his long time Natasha raised. He owns houses in Doral Fl and Nashville Tennessee where he has been the head men's basketball coach at Fisk University the last 4 years. He had a stroke about 3 years ago and has made an excellent recovery. Kenny is living his best life as a family man and coach. My guy KA aka Chibbs is doing just fine. He's overcome many obstacles is life and continues his personal and professional growth. The story is still being written.
Can u do a video on Dana Barros?
I remember he had a rap video he was kinda nice.
Something like Flow On
@@zeroturn7091 that was Cedric Cellbalos.
Yeah, I’m getting old. It was Check It.
Crazy I was thinking about Kenny Anderson and what could’ve stunted his growth. He was one of my dad favorite players.
Great video I love your stunted growth series it really highlights a lot of information not only professional but private information that most people didn’t know. Keep up the good work brother always a pleasure to follow another brothers platform and I will be sharing them.
He was a great player and I followed him his entire career!!!
One of my favorite PGs, thanks for this one Bro! I was at the Capital Classic McDonald's All American game when he went up against a DMV legend that gave him buckets that night! Curt Smith! Look at his story as well my Brother! Let's get it!
You a real one bro, you don’t tear down your Israelite brothas you just report what happened. You drop life gems too, nuff respect ✊🏾
Watching that broke my heart. I loved Kenny's game back in the day. Much love my brother!
I remember watching Kenny Anderson in the early 90s when he was playing for Georgia Tech. Im from Atlanta so we were proud of him when he got drafted to the NBA. He started out great but he fizzled out after he left New Jersey.
This was my fav NBA player at the time. I swore I was him when I played. I remember him being on magazine covers as an 8th grader. He will always be one of the NYC Point Gods
I knew Kenny from our CYO days. He was 1 year older then me but I loved watching him and his team play on Saturday mornings at Our Lady of the Angelus school in Rego Park.
QGTM Queens Represent Thank you JC for dropping this
love the vids, you should do a series on recent high school graduates with a lot of internet hype that couldn’t live up to it when on the real big stage
Like zion
Marrying the girl from MTVs real world, knew it was over then.
Kenny Anderson is one of my Favorite
Point Guards.
Loved watching him at Georgia Tech and Nets.
He was So Smooth.....
People don’t even talk about KA man he to me is one of the greatest guards to ever play jmo!!!!
I think he coaches at Fisk University in Nashville,Tennessee
He does. Check his Twitter out. He’s very active.
He may not be coaching now because he had a serious stroke.
@@MADNEWYORKER914 he’s been good afterwards. Check his Twitter.
@@omarellis
I'm not on twitty, but that's good news!!!
"In Chi I'm Mike...*Boston I'm Kenny*...Miami I'm Timmy and Phoenix I'm Penny" - Cam'ron, What Means the World to you. Classic sports reference!
Arguably more classic line by Das Efx: "This for my n****z on the block/handling rock like Kenny Anderson/brandishin'/stiggety styles to keep MC's vanishin'/scatterin'/f**k it, styles don't be matterin'/my patterin's amazing son blazin' like a saddle"
Thank you.. I think you answered my request for this one. I live In Atlanta and watched all his game here at GA Tech. Best PG ever to play at Tech.
Other than Isiah Thomas, no other PG has ever been as naturally gifted. But he didn't appear to work on his game much, if at all, and it began to show in the pros. Inimitable as a player (often goes against his body's natural inertia on drives and forays to the hoop), he also wasn't physically suited to be a top guard without putting in the time to train and get stronger. Amazing he finishes as one of THE Greatest HS players in any sport, and one of THE BEST college players ever, based mainly off his natural gifts and seasoned aptitude for the game. SALUTE!
He also had that broken wrist against the Knicks that seemed to change him. One of my favorite players when I was a kid. Hope he's doing well.
These videos are dope, love your work. can you do a feature on Chris Washburn.
My personal favorite player of all times! My grandpa took me to the Buck's vs Nets game in 91 just to see KA! Even though Bill Fitch disliked him and played KA only 7 min. I was just happy to see him in person! Chibbs Da Point God!!!!
Bill Fitch was the ultimate "Stunted Growth" for young players
Another masterpiece.
Him and his teammate in Jersey Derrick Coleman could have become a modern version of Stockton and Malone if they had the work ethic and maturity and minus the things that Kenny went through growing up.
Kenny was Iverson before Iverson,for new generations that know none about OG 1st take experience. He was bad ass: a beast of a ball handler
I wouldn’t compare them at all. Iverson was more athletic and didn’t look to dish the rock. He was a SG stuck in a PG’s body. Kenny was a true PG and is Physically bigger than Iverson - not even close to Iverson’s athleticism.
Just came across your videos, saw this one and the one on Rider, love your style and your adding life wisdom/knowledge into your videos, thanks for that. Refreshing. From another lefty. Keep up the great work, kids especially need videos like yours.
Best high school pg i ever seen i played in the 80's coached in the 90's i seen a lot especially in NJ/NY David Rivers was nice St Anthonys Jersey City,Kyrie Irving Andre Barrett Shaheen Holloway
..But Kenny was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bobby Hurley was nice in high school as well in St. Anthony's in Jersey City being coached by his hall of fame father.
@@hennylo68 #FACTS i seen him too,Jerry Walker Terry Dehere later Ant Perry Delvon Arrington Danny was a good pg too #SALUTE brody!
it’s funny my brother drove the Lincoln town car that took him to his HS prom. said he was the most polite teen he had ever drove. sad to hear this story.
Kenny Anderson was a beast!!!
I know Bobby Hurley is still having nightmares after that one behind the back move Kenny did when they played against each other in college!!!
I hope he is recovering nicely after having a stroke.
Crazy how Kenny and DC were on the same NBA team at a young age.... both with crazy bright futures and tremendous upside... two of the most hyped ( for good reason ) young superstars of their time. That duo could've been great!
Kenny...DC...DRAZ.. could of took down the bulls if you ask me.
@@xxxxxJAYMILLZxxxxxxx Drazen Petrovic.... only the real ones know!
Gotta say I've always enjoyed his takes as an announcer/on screen personality. Would be nice for him to have more impact in youths lives with all that knowledge tho for real. As always love your videos man. Really enjoy how you cover what went wrong, but, in a positive and educational light.
My fav pg ever. I'ma finally admit this... Kenny foot was on that line when he hit that "three".
AND I still say that was a DIRTY foul Oakley committed on Kenny. After he broke his wrist vs Knicks he was never the same
#Lethalweapon3
Was that Oakley? I guess I'll have to look it up but I've been remembering it as Starks all these years. But absolutely it was dirty. Nets were running circles around them that afternoon so the knicks handled it the way they handled that type of thing back then. We didn't have cable so I never missed those Sunday NBA on NBC games bcuz that's all I had.
Anyway, I was about to comment that the foul/wrist injury may have been the biggest stunt. You're right, he was never the same after.
My favorite channel to find out about basketball player’s life on and off the court 💯
Great one!!!! Could I do Scottie Thurman from the running rebels? He was along side cornelius Williamson in 1995
Dog. That wasnt the Running Rebels. Thurman played for the Arkansas Razorbacks. Come on
Marbury followed his footsteps, I'm 43, K.A. was one of my fav pg of all time and I played with or against, Rafer Alston, KG, Ronnie Fields, Kobe, Bryant, Tim Thomas, Lester Earl and Corey Benjamin (my cousin Charles Hathaway Tennessee Vol), Stephen Jackson's in the early mid 90's...nice work fam. BTW I was only 5"10' 165 lbs, hell I realized my stunted growth in 96 at ( Baylor) shout out to Trevin Stukes...salute!
Great Video man. Kenny Anderson was a beast as a pg in Jersey. I wish he could've played to his full potential as an athlete in the NBA.
Excellent, excellent video. The points in this video extend well beyond basketball and I will remember and study them.
Damn this was deep
Yo my guy I love your channel. Have you ever thought about doing one for Dominique Wilkins or RUN TMC or Latrel Speewell. Thanks keep up the great work bro.
I know Kenny Anderson...One of the best guys ive ever met...Dude is great people...true NYC legend, unbelievable player
My favorite player when I was in high school in the early-mid 90’s... I really think had he stayed in Jersey, or with Portland for that matter, he’d have had a more distinguished career... maybe not HOF, but he made some bad decisions after Portland dealt him to bring in Stoudemire. You’re right tho, when you get traded so many times, you lose some of what’s special about you and gain that journeyman title
The Pride of Lefrak..legend here in Queens..saw him in high school a savage.
In New York his basketball career remains stellar. Great thing about NYC Rucker Park and the Cage (west 4 th street)
This was Very Informative, I Didn't know he had issues with abuse before the NBA. R.i.p. his mother. Just like Mookie blaylock, Vin baker, Steve Francis and Countless others he drank himself out of the league because of Taboo shit in the black community. We as Black men need a Safe place to talk about issues not the Norm but it's hard to Recieve empathy from our own Culture Sadly. Good luck And God bless to Anderson and All the Others suffering every day. 😔
Bro its really ashame you only have 30 thousand subscribers your content is incredible my brother...
Gosh, I loved watching the Saturday afternoon games featuring GT while Dickie V called it. Kenny Anderson was the Charlie Parker of basketball and i confine my memories only to the beauty and improvisational riffs K..A. executed so effortlessly. I still have a poster of him from his sophomore year st Tech called "The Wizard of Aaaaaaahs" he was dressed like a genie. Also I loved how he cooked Bobby Hurley. Thanks man, great video
Kenny Anderson, Brian Oliver, n Dennis Scott were a thing to watch at Georgia Tech!ll *(Malcom Mackey too if I remember correctly!! Man I sure wish players stayed longer n didn't transfer like crazy!! Used to be you read about players in "Street n Smith" or "Athlons" m then watched Em' n saw if the evaluation was correct in your eyes!! That Georgia Tech team battled UNC n Duke during that season n then got in NCAA tournament n played LSU *( With Shaq,Stanley Roberts*(both 7'0-7'1" 280ish-315lbs big men who were mobile n ferocious)*+ Chris Jackson*(Mahmoud Abdul Rauf)* n played UNLV too n can't remember if that was in tournament that year or the next!! Big Time Games n Big Time Players!! Kenny Anderson was/is a True Legend n knew once he played in Portland*(I live close by)* n married the chick from MTVs "REAL WORLD" that he had lost something to his game!! Didn't know about whatever else he dealt with, but these dudes get millions n millions at such a young age m put on a stage where everything is scrutinized n then coached by Guys who have their own way ideas,style, n Selfish Agendas that these Kids,Young Men Might Not be Ideal fits for!! Loved When Dickey V used to say " This Diaper Dandy from Christ The King High School in NYC will put Bobby Hurley on skates n pass the Rock to 3D*(Dennis Scott)* right where it needs to be perfectly put on a dime baby straight into his fluid stroke from downtown" love your videos n loved Kenny Anderson!! Wish You Would Do One on BRoy*(Brandon Roy)* these youngsters don't know how good he was for that short period of time!!*(like Kobe gave him compliments m those who know know Kobe didn't give Em' very often)!!!Keep Up The Quality Man cause you are literally one of like 3-4 things I look for on RUclips!!
Kenny Anderson and Penny Hardaway are the best two high school players i ever saw in person.
so well done...perfect music, narrated well....great content...much respect
Kenny was my guy since Lethal Weapon 3. One of the best ball handlers EVER. But when he left Tech, he was not ready mentally or physically. And that was the beginning of the end because he never really grew.
Love your videos b...I'm from the east, but we gotta show the west coast pg's some love too😉 (jkidd baby lol)
I went to same HS as Kenny, Archbishop Molloy in Queens, I am older but knew Kenny when he was there. I played Baseball for Coach Curran. Kenny was so much fun to watch and just the nicest kid . I think cpl of things hurt Kenny, The drinking was a major problem, Have so many women use him for his money, and little known fact, His knees were shot by 1998. Kenny is now HC at FISK University and doing terrific
When I was in high school hooping Kenny Anderson used to be there all the time at my practice his son went to the school they nice people. Lil Kenny was cool af man and Kenny Anderson never acted liked he was better than anyone
Excellent video salute JC by far your best work was this video 💯
Superb video!!!! You do great job on your videos!!
Thanks for sharing 😊
I saw Kenny, as a high school freshman. Dude was major D1 ready, right then, and there! At GTech, he was a wizard! The shake move on Bobby Hurley is iconic!
As for the Nets, they had a crew, under Chuck Daley. Had Drazen Petrovic still been alive, the Nets, with Kenny, Drazen, Derrick and coach Chuck, would have been to at least one of those non-Mike Finals! ('94 or '95).
And even though he played 15 years, Kenny had a lot of physical issues, due to his small body frame. His immaturity, off-court, hampered him, as well, but even Hall of Famers have gone down the immature road...!
Kenny could have easily been one of the greatest point guards ever, easily. With that said, this video was very respectful.
Great video brother all the guys in mind so far you reviewed great channel
The one thing I remember about him is that he moved around. A LOT. Way more than a good player should be moving.
One of my all time favorite players. As a GT fan he gave me amazing memories.
yo THANK U FOR THIS ONE BRO THIS WAS MY IDOL GROWIN UP
I went to Jack Currans Summer Basketball Camp at Fordham during the summer entering 5th grade,86 or 87 maybe. Kenny was one of the instructors ,Kenny Smith made appearance, and just watching him as an 9 yr old was mesmerizing. I had high expectations for him and living in the Bronx I was able to have my dad bring me and friends to Meadowlands to see him D.C, Drazen, Chris Morris ,and those cheap seats. I was a huge Knicks fan but expensive seats and parking was too much to ask for.
You don’t know how long I’ve been waiting on this episode🤩
Just give him the credit and respect that he deserve a game changer for everyone 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
