Michael Jordan vs Penny Hardaway Highlights vs Magic (1996.04.07)-52pts Combined!MJ OUTPLAYED PENNY!

[@eazyduzit-tr3nx]

Man Penny was probably my second favorite player back then in the 90's aside from Mike. Everybody at that time were either rocking a Jordan jersey or a Penny. A lot of kids today think he was "just another scrub" from the 90's just bc they try so hard to discredit MJ's competition. But when he was healthy he was far from that. In his 4 first yrs he was already a 3x all star, 3x all-NBA (2x first team). Also came in 3rd in the MVP race in just his 3rd yr, guys like Kobe and Wade (who are both great) took about 6 yrs to be in the MVP discussion. Dude would've easily been one of the greats, if only real life sports can be like the video games where you can turn off the injuries.

[@kryptonardus]

Penny in today's open NBA would be insane with the level of skill and talent he had they'd have zero answers for him.

If Penny Hardaway didn't get injured, you're talking about a top 15 player of all time. If he stayed healthy and won a few rings, he'd be legit in the discussion of all time great PG's, and top 10 all time players. The man's game was for real. If you're from the generation that saw him play during these years, you won't forget how phenomenal Penny was.

[@popeyeisgood]

i had this game on tape. i wouldnt call jordan totally outplaying penny. i remember this game so well because it was one of the games that jordan didn't play all that well. he missed a tons of shots and i remember the anxious feeling of magic beating them again in the playoff when i watched this. highlight is deceptive when it comes to the overall performance in an actual game. regardless. penny was great. i would never buy into the argument that kobe was more talented as a young player vs penny. my reason is that he showed very promising fundamental skill of bball that kobe didn't have in his early days ( some of those kobe actually never learn in his entire career). i watched all the games the bulls faced the magics in those years and hardaway always gave pippen a hard time on offense. pippen in 95-98 were most definitely in far better shape than he was from 99-02 as defender. it is unfortunate that hardaway's career was so short.

[@JPLMONEY23]

I love Penny's fundamentally sound game.....not trying to be fancy or forcing shots......in fact he suppose to take the torch from Mike but Penny being modest he said he just wanna be himself.

[@demetrius-yi4ew]

popeyeisgood 👍

[@popeyeisgood]

it is true. penny in 94-97 was very mature as a play maker that can also score big if needed with full understanding of the flow of the game. unlike those ball hogs we see today who have to dribbling 20 secs before shooting or dishing it out to teammates. compared to wing players(guard/forward) that were as big or taller than jordan with enough skill and athleticism to compete against him, hardaway might be a bit lacking in jumping ability compared to drexler or wilkins but in terms of ball handling and laterally quickness he was ahead of both. no doubt he was never as strong as even the younger version of jordan but he could definitely be seen as a combo of jordan and magic at the time. i would even say that his combination of skill/iq/athleticism at that time was only matched by jordan/pip/ grant hill until kobe entered the nba( who i think was talented but not sensational like rookie jordan or mature like rookie penny). personally i think grant hill has a more all rounded game with a smoother handling. but penny was more clutch and had more flare when it comes to play making both great players that really could have been as accomplished as kobe/lebron or even more so.

[@jamalabdelbaset6635]

JPLMONEY23 I feel you, but what Kobe lacked in athleticism or fundamentals, he more than made up for with his legendary work ethic. That being said, it would’ve been awesome to watch Kobe and a healthy Penny go at it!

[@vie3147]

MJ clearly outplayed Penny.

[@captaintsubasa472]

No No No!!! No one really could guard Penny in that era!! Penny was not that aggressive player that was the bummer.. He played very effectively and was efficient.. Jordan still the best, but Penny is very underrated. Remember after Air Jordan, there was Air Penny by Nike.

[@sky_h00k57]

Pisses me off whenever people say Penny wasn't anything special. If it hadn't been for injuries, he would've been a top 3 player for sure. Even Michael Jordan (the GOAT) said in an interview with Dr. J that if he were to choose who he would pass the torch to, it would have been Penny.

[@elbowgang9715]

Are u high?? Top 3 mean he wouldve had a better career than Magic,Bird, Kobe,Duncan,Shaq, Wilt, Hakeem and many more players I didn't bother to mention. Sorry but hell no top 25 all time is enough

[@sky_h00k57]

@@elbowgang9715 Did I say he IS a top 3 player? No. Key word is IF. His career was cut short due to injuries in 97... only 3 years into the NBA and he was already stacking accolades. And yeah you're right. Top 3 means he wouldve had a better career than those that you mentioned but we won't know since he never even reached his prime! In my opinion, he would have been a top 3

[@DeCurtaRican]

If that statement was made after 1996 it was a lie. Jordan ultimately knew that Kobe was the dude, but Kobe came along later. All I know is...both Penny and Kobe were better than LeBron’s overrated ass. They had better shooting ability, were stronger mentally, were not afraid of the big moments, and played both ends if the floor - even in crunch-time. They were better distributors, too. 😒😏 LeBron is all power.

[@DeCurtaRican]

Stephen May : He had that kind of ability, but he would have needed to be in the right organizational situation. Let’s keep it real, Jordan, Magic, Kareem, Wilt, Bird, Kobe, Shaq, TD, Hakeem, and Oscar won not because they were more skilled than Penny (or Grant hill or T-Mac). They had greater success because they had surrounding casts and organizations that took care of them. If not for Pippen, Harper, Kukoch, and Rodman, , Jordan might never have gotten a ring. Its the same with Magic: Kareem, Worthy, McAdoo, Wilkes, Cooper, et al.; Bird: McHake, DJ, Parrish, Ainge, Walton, Maxwell, et al.; Wilt: West, Baylor, Goodrich, et al.; Kobe: Shaq, E-Jones, Horry, Fisher, Fox, Odom, et al.; So people can laugh, but there are about 12 players who could easily have been top-10 if not for injuries or circumstances. KG Barkley Isiah David Robinson Penny Grant Hill T-Mac Dominique Alex English Bernard King KD (he won’t be when he retires) Dr. J (he’s right on the cusp anyways)

[@Eltot_1031]

[@bubbasparx951]

You can easily tell this was a harder fought, hard played game than most in this current regular season era. People say today's game is more skilled. That's absolutely false.. nba players today can display more athleticism because they aren't getting pounded, hand checked, powered up in the post, or beaten up as much driving to the lane/paint as during the pre-2000s era NBA. In today's nba, basically any hard foul is a technical or a flagrant.. back then it would have been just a normal foul.

[@Mario-re2qp]

MJ at his peak in skill and IQ, Penny only in his third year but this was after knee problems which started a few months earlier, which would totally derail his career. Penny's lethal quickness, not as evident as in the previous 2 seasons. MJ's older here but still 100% healthy and at his shooting peak using that fadeaway jumpshot. Bulls coached by the best coach in the game. Magic, young team coached by coach nobody. Penny 6 assists. MJ 1 assist... We would've surely seen a different result had the Magic hired a proper coach.

[@Vortexxmcsggames]

MJ shooting peak was in 98, but 96 was the pinnacle of his game its where his experience and athleticism combined for him to be the most lethal basketball player to ever step on a court.

The sad thing is Penny's injury could have been avoided, he could have recovered from that knee injury, but management in Orlando did not take Penny's knee injury seriously.
