"Never was' ? ? What .. Penny Hardaway was THAT DUDE For like a decade between college & NBA. He never got a chip. But his sneakers are still iconic because of who he was
Never a champion Never an mvp Never led the league in any metric He was a phenom, an incredible player in every possible definition of the word. Teamwork issues with Shaq stopped him from being a champion Injuries drastically shortened his career Bad beats but thems the breaks
Penny, his game and his sneakers are still so iconic. Those 90s bulls/magic games of him battling MJ and Scottie were awesome to watch as a kid. He shook Mike and Scottie several times too. 👟👌🏽🏀
Anfernee Hardaway was one of those “he doesn’t need to work on his game” kind of players because he came in with everything already at Level 9 - dribbling, passing, shooting, court-vision, ball-handling, basketball IQ. 🏀🏀🏀🏀
They also could’ve acquired Tim Duncan But didnt want to give him a parking spot&his kids to be with him on long road trips Imagine Hill McGrady Duncan together
Penny remains to me as my fav basketball player of all time. The games i watched him play was truly memorable .. good times. Special times. Thank you Penny !!
I think it was because the warriors only got Webber for one year, but I think if they didn’t do the trade the magic would have been good with Webber too.
@@InfiniteCoreXD Like Shaq/Kobe (they would find a way) In all honesty could have been "twin towers 2.0" (Ralph Samson/Dream) *Remember NBA was still center dominant*
To me it’s grant hill. Until his injury in 99 he was killing people, then with 2 bum ankles still put up stats with the suns. Rose didn’t have any awards really till his mvp while grant was getting nba 1st and 2nd team. While competing with Jordan
Yeah I love Penny but Grant Hill is the best of the "What could have been" players in my opinion. I remember when Grant Hill's trading cards were just as expensive as Jordan's. He was supposed to be the next face of the league. Imagine the Grant Hill vs. Kobe battles we could have gotten.
To be fair no one plans on getting injured when they are working a job that can earn them millions of dollars. Regardless I am glad he made it to the NBA.
Len Bias. Greg Oden. Chris Webber to a degree. And Larry Bird too, to be honest. D. Rose is a wife beating pos though. He's also definitely not #1 on that list. Penny was much more talented and versatile. Len Bias also had more potential.
@@eds464 He injured his back in 85, actually, and it was degenerative.. so yeah by 88 it was really starting to get bad, but it was a problem well before then, along with other issues (mangled shooting fingers, etc.)
Penny was unique and cannot even be compared to anyone. He was perfect and beautiful to watch playing with nice moves : passing, shooting, dunk etc. He could have been the 2nd best GOAT behind MJ
I loved Penny Hardaway in the 90s ! I became a Houston Rockets fan in 1994 in Februar/march! I was 10 Hakkem Olajuwon was my most favorite player ! I cried in an Interview back then when he was talking about retirement 😅 this is how much i cared about the guy ! Orlando / Penny mostly was one of my Favorite ! I loved as well The whole Houston team ! Watched the Nba Finals in Iceland in 3 and 4 am and slept often the 3rd and 4th quartes watching my heros ! Man do i miss those days being a kid and playong basketball dunking on a baskets that was in comparison to my height as the Nba vasket to their.heights and dunk in it between the legs off the board 360 and so on 😊
Eh. Both were hyped as "Jordan replacements" but neither were MJ. The only player like MJ we've seen is Kobe, and that's just because he idolized him and copied his game and happened to be the same size/position (though he wasn't nearly as good obviously). Grant Hill was the Lebron before Lebron.
@@Cannon4545 Nah Kobe was a product of media hype, great player but ever since he died they keep trying to bump him up that all time ranking list, higher than what he really deserved anyway. In my humble opinion, the best player post-MJ was Tim Duncan.
I went to elementary school with Penny and here in Memphis you do not talk bad about Penny. Dude is a local hero and is an all around nice guy. He's also the coach of our beloved Tigers too.
I was in my young teens when I first fell in love with basketball. I was drawn to the Magic by Shaq's crazy big man dominance, but Penny, damn. I stuck around for Penny. They were so fun to watch together.
Penny and Grant Hill. These are my 90s basketball heroes. I would play NBA 2k Myteam and wait for their Invincible Cards to relive those glory days of theirs. Definitely the greatest “what ifs” in basketball history.
Penny Hardaway was Magic Johnson 2.0, so his playing style was similar to his during his time in the NBA. He had it all as far as height, skill, vision, and an effortless style of play. He was a versatile guard who could handle the ball, pass with precision, and score from anywhere on the court. His athleticism and basketball IQ made him one of the most dynamic players of his era. In his prime, he was a force to be reckoned with, and it was heartbreaking to see injuries cut his career short. Do you think Penny and Shaq could have been as dominant as other iconic duos like Jordan and Pippen or Kobe and Shaq?
Penny Hardaway was known for his versatility, blending the skills of a point guard with the size and athleticism of a forward. His unique playmaking ability, smooth handles, and flair made him one of the most exciting players of the 1990s, drawing comparisons to Magic Johnson early in his career.
Chris Webber would have been a bad idea paired with Shaq. 2 dominating front court players who need the ball doesn't work. Magic wanted someone who can bring the ball up to Shaq and also be a 1-2, inside-outside scoring punch.
Penny huh…. Yea, he was special. I think he had one of the biggest splashes ever. Not many could compete with Mike’s celebrity back then… Penny did. Penny was a big deal y’all. Till this day his penny 1’s are my favorite basketball shoes…over Jordan’s , back then wearing Jordan’s in Chicago got you killed
"But instead of dominating on the hardwood; Penny dominated operation tables and rehabilitation centers" is some of the funniest shit I've ever heard 🤣
Pre-injury Penny was really something. He definitely had a little bit of Magic in him, and I don't know that I have said that about anybody since. Grant Hill was another top player from that era who had his potential cut short by injury. Grant was like offensive Scottie Pippen but with more of a scorer's mentality. Not the defender Scottie was, but still. He was a great player on Detroit.
Putting veterans in that team was a great decision by management. I think they had the players capable of winning the championship, they just needed a Phil Jackson type coach: C- Shaq PF- Horace Grant SF- Dennis Scott SG- Nick Anderson PG- Penny I think that could be a championship team.
IN THE 90S WHEN I WAS A KID SOMEWHERE IN THE PROVINCES WE DON'T HAVE TELEVISIONS BUT THE AIR FILLED WITH HARDAWAY,JORDAN,O NEAL,KEMP, PAYTON,MALONE ,PIPPEN,MILLER AND RODMAN IT WAS AN AMAZING VIBES LISTENING NBA PLAYOFFS ON THE RADIO BACK IN THE OLD GOOD TIMES.=]
Penny was more than a Magic Johnson type player. His game was more like Jordan, but he had is own style. His game is what we see today. But he was fundamentally solidand could do it all. Pass, penetrate, and could shoot from damn near anywhere on the court. He had ni weakness in his game before the injuries
When usage rate goes up, the care you have body to take for your body is so important. When shaq left he had to carry more and he had the skills to do that but his body couldn’t physically keep up cause it’s a lot more strain.
Penny was great before all the injuries he seems like a great guy and even though he didn't win any rings I'm glad he was able to leave his mark in the NBA
I agree that Penny was one of the greatest players unrealized given his injuries. What stood out in this video for me was the Bulls comeback after they fell short to the Magic the year earlier (MJ was pretty rusty from his baseball days) and they just destroyed the Magic. Really shows you how incredible the Bulls were in those days and that year in particular. Yeah, Rodman was a real help, but come on... Until that year, Rodman was not know for a ton of value as much as his antics to that point
Makes you wonder how the heck did MJ survive a whole decade without major injuries. He was pushing his body hard and yet didn't break down. It's true that he hired a specialist after his first surgery, but still impressive nonetheless. If my memory is correct Hardaway had hired the same doctor MJ was using. It's also quite possible, MJ's retirement was a blessing, giving his body time to fully heal.
"NEVER Was?" (rolls eyes) Look nah... Y'all gon quit disrespecting Mr. Penny Hardaway nah. He was such an elegant player. He dedicated his entire life to entertaining the world and this is the thanks that he gets. You cannot just wake up, roll outta bed and perform the way Mr. Hardaway did. "Never was" is such a hateful statement. I'm a '90s kid and we loooooved Mr. Hardaway. Every boy bought a pair of his shoes and wanted to be like him. I had him all over my walls, locker and binders. America put a lot of pressure on him so I know his nerves were bad. He did the best he could and we appreciate him. You get'cho ass on that court and get injured and see how you feel about it. Do not disrespect this legend like this again, hear?
One of the best players I saw Could do every thing Superb passing and dribling If Shaquil had not left to the big money of the Lakers They would have been champions in my opnion
"Never was' ? ? What .. Penny Hardaway was THAT DUDE For like a decade between college & NBA. He never got a chip. But his sneakers are still iconic because of who he was

My little brother gave me a pair of his shoes for Christmas. They're amazing
Penny and Grant Hill's trading cards were my most coveted cards in the 90s. I was so jealous of other kids who had them.

Grant Hill, Penny Hardaway, and Derrick Rose are unquestionably the 3 players with most unrealized potential in the history of the NBA

Grant Hill, Penny Hardaway, and Tracy McGrady. What could have been.

But didnt want to give him a parking spot&his kids to be with him on long road trips
Imagine Hill McGrady Duncan together
@@aceassn716 they had conference finals easy . Them 3 three healthy would've been match up Problems for a few seasons in that era
I was a kid in the 90s and in school every kid was hyped up about Penny. He was the next guy and being paired with Shaq helped.
Penny remains to me as my fav basketball player of all time. The games i watched him play was truly memorable .. good times. Special times. Thank you Penny !!
"draft penny or lose me"
both happened😅
Never let a player be your GM. Lakers are still learning that.
The Webber-Hardaway trade was honestly a steal for the Magic

I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the community, and as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can.
The Air Pennys were great too. To this day, I have not seen more beautiful ones.
First basketball shoe that costs 200 bucks when they came out. Im a huge Magic fan and watched him as a kid growing up. My goodness it was incredible
Never thought I’d hear the statement “Brian Shaw arrived and now they’re ready to take the next step” 😂😂😂😂😂
He was actually a high IQ type player and a great piece off the bench
But yeah that statement was probably a little over the top
Shaw was a good role player
Putting veterans in that team was a great decision by management. I think they had the players capable of winning the championship, they just needed a Phil Jackson type coach:
C- Shaq
PF- Horace Grant
SF- Dennis Scott
SG- Nick Anderson
PG- Penny
I think that could be a championship team.
IN THE 90S WHEN I WAS A KID SOMEWHERE IN THE PROVINCES WE DON'T HAVE TELEVISIONS BUT THE AIR FILLED WITH HARDAWAY,JORDAN,O NEAL,KEMP, PAYTON,MALONE ,PIPPEN,MILLER AND RODMAN IT WAS AN AMAZING VIBES LISTENING NBA PLAYOFFS ON THE RADIO BACK IN THE OLD GOOD TIMES.=]

Coming out of high school Penny Hardaway was leaps ahead of Kobe Bryant at that stage, just was a better player. His bag was unreal.
Those long playing hours as a kid made him a phenom but also caught up to him in the end and robbed him of a long successful career.
