NBA Legends Say That Penny Hardaway was The Chosen One 

My 2nd favorite player behind MJ growing up!! They really dont understand how cold that man was. He was on the path to being a 1st ballot HOFer hands down

Thank you for continuously featuring Anfernee on this channel…he won’t be forgotten! ❤🙏🏻

I love it when my hometown guy gets love. We're still proud of him to this day.

Penny was an awesome player. I remember seeing him play and there will never be another Penny. Greatness

One of my favorite players in the 1990's. Penny was cold!!

Penny’s top 50 highlight reel is insane! He posterised every big man in the 90s. If Magic built around Shaq & Penny they would have been unstoppable.

Penny Hardaway was one of the most exciting young players in the NBA. When he came in, people were already calling him the "next Magic Johnson". Unfortunately, he's just one player on a long list of stars who fell due to injuries. Player like Penny, T-Mac, Grant Hill and Brandon Roy. Will always have you wondering what if.

Penny was a unicorn talent that was an extraordinary play maker from both spots with elite passing ability and lethal midpost game (accompanied with a quality outside shot &above the rim finisher) made him a match nightmare

Penny will always be my favorite

Guy was a king, beside MJ, one of my favourite playrs

Anfernee Hardaway is one of my favorite players ever! He was one of the guys I grew up watching! I remember hitting the court with my black Penny no 1 jersey of the Orlando Magic, shooting around by myself, or playing pickup games with friends or with whoever was on the court! He's definitely my favorite PG of the 90s, ahead of Stockton because of his height, athletic skills, and versatility! John Stockton is my second favorite PG of the '90s, so there's no shade there! But Penny was awesome back in the day! Damn injuries! Definitely one of the biggest what-ifs in NBA history! Thanks, dear Sean, for traveling back to my teen years and for putting a smile on my face! Love your channel, and keep up the good work!

That left handed move against the heat was dope whatever that move was.

Penny Hardaway & Grant Hill are the biggest what ifs in the 90s... 😔

My favorite Basketball Player since day 1, Anfernee 'Penny' Hardaway!

Penny didn't even reach his peak and yet we know how great he is, and humble too.

Is, and probably always will be, my favorite player ever.

One of the most talented dudes to ever lace em up fam. Mad luv from Memphis for Penny! #Our Goat #Memphis Legend

Man; Penny and Shaq literally owned Orlando for those few years. I'm so thankful I was there for the ride 😁 Penny is a HOFer for sure! #1 the Hard a Way 🏀

I've started watching NBA in end of 1994 season. Right away, Penny stood out to me with his flashy, high IQ plays. His passes were incredible and movement off the dribble, dunks, the whole persona... he was just perfect. He was a regular in top10 plays of the week. I think Penny came to the league at the perfect time, just as we started entering digital revolution. I'd say he's probably top 10 all time most influential players even though he played only few years before succumbing to knee injuries.

Penny was why I fell in love with basketball!! He had Lebron's IQ and MJ's skill set...so much potential on a regular day. He gave the best defenders in the league (Scottie Pippen and MJ) everything they could handle! SPECIAL!

Thanks for the video. Penny was art right from the his rookie season. He had it all. I enjoyed watching him play. He must be in the hall of fame, no doubt.

Penny and LJ is the greatest what if in NBA history.

I'll be honest. As Bulls fan back then, Penny scared me way way more than Shaq. He was incredible.

the reason why i loved that sequence bc most players are taught half spin(pivot: if you fake right you go left and if you fake left you go right) but what Penny did was faked right and just reversed spin aka stepback to faced the bucket (created the open space) bucket.. Penny 1 of my all time fav players top 3 easily. and for the record it's not bad basketball. If that's the case every move is bad basketball ONLY if you haven't practiced it enough to have it down.

THAT'S A REAL STEP-BACK. IT'S NOT PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE IT'S STRAIGHT JUKE MOVE....NOT SUS OF A TRAVEL.😎

Keep these coming. Im the biggest Penny fan ever! I grew up in Memphis,say less!

Penny ....what he could have been.Tragic. One of my favourite Players of all time

OH MY GOD! PENNY HARDAWAY! Sorry... I get hella giddy inside whenever I come across a new Penny video. Oooh, I just love him so much.

On and off the court, Penny Hardaway has been a WINNER 🐐 🔥.

A True Basketball Time Machine ❤

His black Orlando Magic jersey was the first one i bought back in my high school years. I still have it and wear it. Awesome player and we didn't even witness his prime. The guy was on his way of becoming a top ten player of all time. His skillset was phenomenal and no other point guard after him ( Kidd, Rose, Nash , Curry etc ) had that package .

Penny,one of the coldest players with a basketball. He was ahead of his time.

Born in 1980, I grew up being a Penny Hardaway fan (along with MJ23, Pippen, Barkley, and Shawn Kemp).

When Penny dunked on Ewing, I remember telling my friend the Knicks are not winning the Atlantic that year.

That inside pivot is crazy!!!😮

In high school, I wore his Magic jersey under my school shirt and wore those Air Penny's every day so when lunchtime came, it was ON, on that court. Was and still is my fav player ever and I still watch his highlights weekly. I didn't do much laundry then but I sure washed that jersey every day 😅

Damn it I loved penny hardaway - one of my favorite players EVER

U know how great u have to be to be in the conversation of greatness. And not even peak 🤯 That's greatness(1) And his shoes still sells to this day.

Loved Penny all the way from Oz. He made the NBA watchable.

1.Jordan/Penny 2 Kobe 3 Bird/Olajuwan 4 Labron 5 Magic/ Kareem If we are predicting how well they could of done.

I almost died of sheer excitement when Backcourt 2000 was assembled

He was unstoppable one of my favorite players and point guards, he gets forgotten because of his short career

Penny my all time PG I’m from Florida I was rocking with them over the Bulls

Penny, Vince, Grant hill , Tracy mc...love this game!

Absolutely Love Penny!

Penny was better then Kobe and Lebron

TMAC moved like Penny, I thought MAC was a stronger version of him

The Movie with Shaq and Penny was so cool! Ya know which Movie i mean?! Back in the 90's we had those stores to go check out new movies. I miss the 90's...

Penny & Grant Hill due to injuries then Reggie Lewis to his heart, just real talent and awesomeness just gone before we truly seen them at their peak

Said before but watched Penny destroy my Billilkens when he was at Memphis. Became an immediate fan and then an Orlando guy. I mean come on Shaq and Penny? Now yes I was a Bulls fan first and had to take them when going against each other but when Jordan "retired" I went straight to the Magic. Course I had to flip back but they were always my second favorite team unless going against Jordan and the Bulls. It's Penny and Grant Hill I wish never got injured to a point it killed their careers. Two gods on the court.

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥PENNY❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Come on Sean let's use this time machine to go back to Hoop Dreams. Classic.

One of My favorites

Penny,VanExel were my 2 favorite guards of the 90s

Penny ascended beyond air for about 2 years. He was the best for about 2 years. Him and Pippen should’ve had mvps from 93-97 ish.

Penny was and still is my favorite . Glad that Nike rereleased his shoes. Not really into the Jordan shoe since everyone has them but you bet I will be getting those Penny’s.

He was so damn good when he came into the league. Felt so bad for him and Grant Hill with those damn injuries hit them

In some alternate universe Penny never gets hurt and we see what he becomes. Would love to visit that place. My Lord.

Check latest Shaq interview where he talks about Penny (Penny was there as well). It’s a great and unique interview. For me back in the MJ days there was always MJ and then right next to him there was always Penny, joy to watch.

One of my favorite sneakers.

Smoothest player I've ever watched.

The man had no weaknesses! Penny was the man!

Penny had so many moves but his post play for a gaurd is second to none.

Awesome video of 1 of the NBA greats

Penny was my fav guard back then i mimicked everything about his game or tried to 😂

Next to MJ, Penny was and still is my favorite player. If injuries didn't ruin his career, he'd probably filling up the stat sheets.

I'm still salty that the injury bug bit him so soon. I was in love with Orlando in the 90s and Orlando Shaq was different than later versions of Shaq. Him and Penny should've been a dynasty :(

Man Penny became a fan fav quickly! I had posters of him on my walls along mj, Kemp and Rodman. That was all I could afford to cover my walls with as a young early teen at the time. I had to get my mom sign a permission slip at 14 to be able to work and buy chit i wanted. Nba posters, cards and comics were my thang lol 😂😅

It’s actually one of my go to moves 4:42

Penny put it on em... ALL OF EM... let's not forget what he did before the injuries...

He should be in the HOF🔥

Penny without a doubt in my opinion is the player that if it wasn't injuries he would of been iconic not superstar but iconic

Penny was a phenom. Injuries and Shaq's quest for fame and riches broke up the only duo to beat MJ's Bulls after 1990. Glad to see Penny coaching.

So dam underrated just Disrespect Penny Hardaway he still Top 20 PG but he always be in my Top 5 PG and not about know dam stats

I still say, very similar to Bo Jackson, Penny doesn't get hurt, he's the greatest possibly. I think he easily eclipses Kobe... Yea, I said it, people would be sayin' Kobe Who?! 💯

Remember back in the mid 90’s he was BIG, right behind Jordan. Then Grant Hill came in and he was big. If back then medical is advanced like now he would have been okay after the injure. Plus, he played like 2-3 seasons with the injure and still dominated 😬

Once in a lifetime player

When I seen Penny I saw my game, but at the height I wanted. Penny and Kobe got the physical gifts I wished for.

The way I see it, if he didn't get hurt he would've been ALL NBA First Team PG every single year. He was the best PG in the league when healthy

Great video

I'm 43 from Chicago. Penny was my favorite player in the heart of the Bulls championship run. Penny beat Mike on the Dream Team and in the playoffs. Last team 2 beat Mike in the post-season.

Got to watch him play at Memphis and knew people outside of Memphis didn’t know what was coming to the NBA.

U gotta do a video on penny's last great game when he was on the Knicks and lead them to a comeback victory to help them get the 8 seed in 2004

Penny was my boy. "But there can be only 1"

This should be a segment called “your dad‘s favorite player (you might not have heard of)“!

This goes to show the Level of competition in that era..... Penny, Hakeem, Ewing, Shaq, Barkley, Bird, Magic, Kemp, Malone, Miller, Drexler, Thomas, Worthy, McHale,R. Smith, etc, etc, etc................

Larry Johnson was also a megastar who should get his flowers

Penny needs to be in HOF.

Penny was my absolute favorite player growing up. I wanted to play just like him. Wanted the jersey’s the shoes, the cards…everything. I know it’s blasphemous to say in the basketball world but I didn’t like MJ. As a hooper I didn’t like how he never passed the ball. I saw Penny and finally had my MJ. He could do it all. And when they beat the bulls it was like a championship to me. Hate how he was added to the list of NBA greats derailed by injuries. I always love penny he started my real love of the game.❤️💯

Like i was an mj fan, and he was a nemesis for the Bulls. But we love him. We give him the resoect. Imagine today's cancel culture LBJ fan admiring an opponent

The dunk on Ewing was crazy

People don't understand the popularity of Penny. For one season after the Shaq trade, he was the BEST player on the planet hands down.

funny thing about this is.. these players are looking at this move Penny in playoffs like they never seen it before. lol (clip been around since 98 i think).

Penny and Derrick Rose are my biggest what ifs that I really would have liked to see healthy

Injuries suck. When you hear people talk about Penny that played at that level for the 4-5 years that he was like that they mention Mike, Magic, Kobe and LeBron. That should say enough. He was that damn good and this is why I don’t overvalue longevity when weighing a player’s caliber. I know what I saw and he did well enough in the time he was healthy for me to respect his pedigree. I feel the same sentiment about people like Grant Hill, and McGrady and Derrick Rose. Build their attributes on a video game. They’re all 95+ rating players.

like T-Mac said, Penny was my MJ. Only jersey I own besides JKidd's

Grant and penny are the biggest what ifs in nba history. Len is up there too but we hadn't seen him in the pros so he's 3rd😁. To this day i'm still surprised nike got penny and left out grant for fila🤓

penny before injuries.... i dont think we ever see better pg than him

I always feel for how Penny's career got detailed but seeing what he's done with his life its clear to me God had bigger plans for Penny. If he'd gotten to have a healthy career I don't think he'd have been there to go back and coach those boys.

Penny was my mj enough said
