[Remote]

Everybody talks about Shaq and Penny, which it deserved....but can Nick Anderson get some shine?

and dudes on here acting like Penny Hardaway wasn't sh*T.

I'll slap you with all 5 fingers

A lot of them are gonna change their opinions soon as this documentary airs.

The legend of Penny will grow

Can't wait to see how Nick Anderson explains those(literally) soul stealing missed free throws

Can he go back in time and hit those free throws

[Eastside Get The Money]

Speaking as a 90s baby, Shaq was the only player every kid knew. More than Jordan imo

"Kobe and Shaq before kobe and Shaq." I wonder what Kobe thinks of this? Shaq is basically saying Penny>Kobe

That sweep of the magic was the 2nd greatest moment I had as a bulls fan

The 1st was that sweep of the pistons. I remember me and my brothers literally crying as little kids as the bulls lost that last time to the Pistons. We just kept asking my mother "why can't we beat them?!"

My mother always blamed the refs

It's not about who started it, it's about popularized it. Michael Jackson wasn't the first nikka to do the moonwalk but he's the one associated with it. That's besides the point.

My point is I don't feel Orlando deserves a 30 for 30. There shining moment is beating 45 Jordan, that wasn't Prime Jordan and he proved it coming back stomping they ass the next year. They didn't even have a heated rivalries like the Knicks had with the Bulls, Heat, Indiana. And that's another point (yes I saw the Reggie Miller doc) 90's teams like the Knicks never won shyt either but are worthy of being focused on.

You actually made good points throughout this entire thread. Orlando were a fun team but ultimately they didn't win shyt nor impact the culture or sport.

A documentary on the Webber/Divac/J Will Kings or 7 Seconds or Less Suns probably would've been more compelling.

I was a big fan of that squad when they were playing, that being said what was so unique about the team? I mean they are the equivalent to the current OKC squad. Exciting, fast paced, strong contenders, star power in a mid sized city.....but never won shyt.

Its Cultural, both Shaq and Penny were young, balling, and cultural titans at the time.
And their relationship ended in their primes... it's like a Tupac situation. Theyres a mystique about them, of what they could of been.

"Kobe and Shaq before kobe and Shaq." I wonder what Kobe thinks of this? Shaq is basically saying Penny>Kobe

No, Shaq basically was saying, he and Penny were the one two, guard bigman tandem. before the other bigman, and guard tandem; Kobe and Shaq.
