Coli, Name One NBA Guard ( besides Jordan) With A Better Post/Back To Basket Game Than Penny.

[DoubleClutch]

Just stumbled on this video and was amazed by the post moves and amount of plays where his back is to the basket.

That type of offense doesn't exist in the NBA today, especially with guards.

Wade and Kobe are the only two I can think of, but it still isn't close.

On a side note, just imagine if Lebron had a post game like Penny

Shaun Livingston comes close.

penny was on the fast track to becoming one of the GOATS.

i truly believe his ceiling was as high as anyone's in the history of the league. i'm talkin like pantheon great.

I thought he meant besides Wade and Kobe.

Penny in the 97 playoffs vs Miami

the obvious selection is kobe with wade a distant third but with that said penny had the most fluidic spin move of any player. he didnt have that same amount of versatility but that spin move itself was one of the most beautiful moves in all of sports

Penny use to give pippen that work in the post and off the dribble

Shaq said Penny was better than Wade....

Kobe has a nice post-FADE. But penny would back down and post from near the 3 point line. Hed use it as part of his dribble iso. Kobe just would post up on the block and make his move.

Pennys post game/back to the basket was just more fluid and part of his dribble.

Plus penny at more moves in the baseline/paint. He had that jump hook. Better foot work too.

Offensively, Penny > Lebron
