Kenny you could have also tried to set the coaches pace to being slower so that it slows the game down, and the other team gets less opportunities to score.

I understand, now, that Defensive rating is per 100 possessions, but I still believe it will help because it makes getting a stop more valuable.

You could do it if you switched between paint focus defensively and perimeter based on the other teams strengths, but that would take way longer to do.

Kenny you can probably do this challenge but you need scorers on your team too. The more shots you miss when you're on offense, the more scoring opportunities you give the other teams. So mix in more two way guys with the defensive studs when you run this one back.

There was no 3-point line in that season for the Bullets so the fact that you got close at all is incredible Edit: The best defensive rating since the 3-point line was added was the 03-04 Spurs with 94.1 so for what it’s worth you beat that!

@tarishgt Honestly given how the NBA is so geared towards 3pt shots these days, that defensive score is incredible! A great change of pace from the usual rebuilds. Super fun to watch!

That Bullets team was pre 3 point line so less point in general. Kerr also had a better coaching defensive rating. Great video!

Kenny the thing you missed is you had your offensive tempo at neutral. Slow offense = less possession = less opportunity to score Run it back , it's definately doable with the team you built

@thesznn You’re the goat KENNY. Keep going

Quick question to Kenny, where do the jerseys come from that you get, just curious how you do that kinda thing

The fantasy draft made teams with multiple great scorers like the one with dame and Bradley beal. I'd love to see this tried again with regular teams over a few seasons.

@schaafmatteo amazing video as always, don't know how you come up with certain challenges! you're a legend Kenny

Day 1 of asking Kenny to do a reversing nba history sim. Basically you start in the magic vs bird era and you reverse the classes so instead of 84 draft class u would do 2022 and would sim like this with draft classes reversed until the 2022-2023 season

@gianshhh much love from Italy, been watching your videos for the last 4 years

@WDPig1 Close but no cigar. Always appreciate you going outta your way to take on actually hard challenges lol, that’s what makes you a legend!

@iraqsandtoast if you did the defensive plan specific to each team you might have been able to do it. When you lost to Beal and dame you could have focused on perimeter instead of the paint and it may have helped also maybe double team the stars

One thing you could try, that would be super annoying, is constantly change your defensive strategy for each opponent. Protect the paint against bad shooting teams, and try and make the shots harder against good shooting teams

@7boysam

Жыл бұрын

@KOT4Q this is the solution I believe

feel like it couldve been done if you changed from protect the paint and protect the 3 depending on the roster of the opposition, game where you gave up 75, the team had no shooters and the game where you gave up 138, had dame and beal.

@DatsonOf2… Cuz Kenny .. Come on man lol 😂

The Remote Rebuild Challenge: Choose a team from either conference but don't take control of it. Then choose a team from the other conference and do take control of it. Without having any influence on them it's now the goal to turn the team you don't control into NBA champions by aquiring the players yourself and then trading them over to the other team, building a championship roster for them. If this seems too easy the goal should then be to also rebuild your own team and having both the team you control and the one you remotely rebuilt meet in the finals to see if you can take down the surefire roster you gave them.

Another great vid

i had no idea you had a kid, wishing blessings

thumbnail goes hard

Really love the idea of this challenge Kenny! Given how the league rules have changed to empower offenses, and the subsequent rise in offensive rating (League average was 107 in 1986, 103 in 2004, and 115 in 2023), I’m not sure how possible it is to break into the 90’s, though I do think it’s a worthy goal to shoot for. If you do decide to go relative to the league, the best mark ever is from the 2004 Pistons (with Rasheed Wallace), who posted a mark 13 points better than league average (90.9). I also think you could beat the Wizards given they are about 7 points ahead or he league.

For something like this I gotta look at their defensive tendencies too and try and find players wit like an 80+ shot contest along with the A+ interior/perimeter defense rating

@zeeeeeeeej that was so close yet so far LMAOO

You could have gameplanned for each team individually. You could have set it so where you packed the paint for teams like the pelicans with scottie and mobley, and then defended the perimeter heavily against teams like the pacers with beal and lillard, and do this for every team.
