So I have been friends with Kelly since 8th grade. He was and still is the most competitive, tough and talented player I have witnessed. Afraid of nobody. I wish for him they had kept him in Detroit , he really deserved a championship. Still a good friend to this day.

He has 1 of the phattest names in the history of all sports. There's no way to call his name and it doesn't sound cool. Nevertheless, he scored the 1st point for a franchise. He had a soft touch off the run and gentle left. Plus never leave Big Jerze open or you'll get benched.

The Hornets were thrilled to get him

The real life Jackie Moon

He use to get Buckets with the best of players I was just speaking on Him and his Game to some younger people and they didnt know who he was or about his game. Kelly Tripucka.

Kelly Tripucka was an incredible scorer with Detroit. His trade to Utah put a hold on his scoring efficiency. It never really clicked afterwords, but one season with Charlotte.

True. I always wondered why it didn't work out with Utah.

The Ultimate Kelly Tripucka experience! Great work showcasing an underrated Pistons standout.

Some players have a "playground" style. Tripucka had a "backyard" style. He was the guy you could never beat on his home rim, so full of tricks and feints. He'd make you foul him and hit the shot anyway with that beautiful shooting form. So clever offensively. He was replaced on the Pistons by fellow Notre Damer Adrian Dantley, who played a very similar game. Not a good defensive player, but many stars aren't.

All through the 1980's, such good times.

My favorite piston/player ever!!! #7 Kelly Tripuka!!!🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏

Kelly Tripucka is a person I have met before and he goes to the same club as me. I didn’t know who he was but after watching all his highlights and stats I find it stupid that not many know about him.

Ryan, you shouldn't feel foolish at all (not knowing who Kelly Tripucka was). I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. And, I only know who he is, because I was an NBA fan. I didn't get to watch him much, because I was a stiff, who didn't have cable TV until I was 18, and his Detroit Pistons teams weren't on national TV much, until they started getting very good in the mid to late 1980s.

The music sounds the way he looks...well done!

"Nobody make Kelly Tri PUKE his own puke. NoBODY!!!!!" 😂😂😅

4:50 The Blazers in 1990-91 talked about several players to acquire, mid season. They decided on Walter Davis. Dell Curry, Kelly Tripioka were others discussed. NOW I know why the Blazers didn't get him. He and Dan Ainge wouldn't have been able to co-exist.

Lamar Matic put a Nuggets-Pistons game on You Tube, featuring Kelly Tripucka and Kiki Vandeweghe's head-to-head matchup. Wow! Some awesome scoring by both of them! Kelly and Kiki could score.

2:20 I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. A stiff who didn't have cable TV until I was 18. I did NOT know that Kelly Tapioca could dunk!

He looks like Ben stiller in Dodgeball

Qué gran jugador. Me encantaba ver sus partidos.

Nobody made him bleed his own blood... NOBODY

Kelly Tripucka is the Gary Gaetti of basketball

He was a waking bucket

Smooth

Came here cuz he on nba2k21 had to c wat he was about lol he get buckets

Get the ball to Tripuke and get the fk out of his way!!

This guy is very good 👍

4:05 Kelly Tripucka: Ball-Handling: C. Passing: A. Nice pass to Tom Rambis for the assist.

Kelly and earth,wind and fire!c'mon!

A bucket on 2k

I was just watching the Broadcast Boys and Brody said Kelly looked like Tony Perkis from Heavyweights 🤣

didnt know sienfield played in the league

Is that White Goodman from Globo Gym

KT was Jordan before Jordan figured it out.

*_Isaiah 55.6 Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near. 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, And the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the Lord, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon._* _Only Jesus Christ saves. Repent and be saved. Jesus Christ loves you. God bless you, and peace be upon you and your family in the name of Jesus Christ._ -

This video is the greatest evidence Lebron has that he faced better comp than Jordan.
