10 Most Unlikely NBA Finals Heroes Ever

6. Kenny Smith - Houston Rockets

Now an esteemed NBA analyst, Kenny 'The Jet' Smith was once an above-average guard for the Houston Rockets. Although an important member of the squad, nobody could have foreseen him taking such a leading role as he did in Game 1 of the 1995 Finals, propelling his team to a narrow victory - which would later prove crucial in sapping the upstart Orlando Magic's energy and belief. Smith rained in seven three pointers, a then-record for the Finals, including one which sent the game to overtime. The Rockets eventually swept the series 4-0, earning Kenny his second championship ring.
