Happy 47th to TNT's Kenny Smith

Posted Mar 8, 2012
There was life for Kenny Smith prior to TNT. Before he and Charles Barkley became foils for each other and the target of Ernie Johnson Jr., Smith was a nifty point guard for Dean Smith (he was Kenny The Jet after all) and a two-time NBA champion with the Houston Rockets. On the occasion of his 47th birthday, here is a video of the 1987 NBA Draft when Smith was the sixth overall pick of the Sacramento Kings. (USA Today)
