Injuries happened to him that's what happened to Penny. Because barring injury i think he would have been he best guard in the league once Jordan retired and he would have one numerous individual and team awards. It's a shame he got hurt so early in his career so we never got the chance to see how good he would have ended up being. But from taking the Magic to the finals as a second year player to all the memorable moments that he provided, i think we saw enough to say he would have been one of the best ever if he never got hurt.

Red, White, & Stonewashed Blue since '94
Then I had his shoes. The FIRST pair, that NOBODY remembers. The black/bllue suede low-mids.

i'm not disputing it, but let's not act as if Penny ever REALLY got the chance to play in his prime....healthy that is

All-NBA 1st team in his 2nd & 3rd seasons. Year 4 is when the knee injuries started. We were robbed goddamnit :to:

He was 6'7:comeon:

And even if you consider that a "Big Man", pause, he wouldnt even be in the top 10 of most athletic big men within the past 20 years.



Penny was great before injuries, yes, but why are yall over hyping him in here?:mindblown:

he was 6'9

you saying prime penny couldnt win mvp in this era?

He was straight but yall acting like he was a LeBron James type nikka back when he was doing his thing....

he wasnt better than lebron but he wasnt far from him. dude was housing chit amongst goats and we didnt even get to see him hit his prime.

michael jordan even said that penny was the next ONE.

he was the most popular magic play. YES HE WAS MORE POPULAR THAN SHAQ. and this is when i would say shaq was at his peak in popularity.

I had a penny jersey when I was a kid...and some guy broke into my house and that was all he stole.

Great player though, but he never recovered from his injuries.

Wore a lot of sports Jersey's in my life, but none made em go:krs::ooh::salute: Like that black Orlando road jersey with the white pinstripes, Penny Hardaway.


Threw it on to make a quick run to the grocery store a few weeks back.Got a few "That's a fukking awesome jersey dude" type comments while I was there.Something about that Penny jersey causes muthafukkas to light up
