[Here Comes the Pain]

The documentary was good overall.

The one thing that intrigued me the most was when Penny hardaway started talking about Kobe and shaq winning titles and how that should have been him in kobe`s place.

I always wondered how he felt about kobe during that run because he was literally in the same position. Both top 5 players, getting comparisons to mj, and playing side by side with shaq tryna build a dynasty.

Penny basically watched what could have been if everything didn't take a turn for the worst. I feel even worse for him.

 

[The War Report]

Shaq was a fukking megastar.


@ Scott Skiles having 30 assists in a game. Where are you 90's purists at? :bronplz:


Nick Anderson


The Magic just got their ass beat in the playoffs.


The Magic set back small market teams for low balling Shaq. And then you had the stupid ass fans saying he wasn't worth the money. Racist ass white people no doubt.

And fukk them for changing their jerseys. So fukking stupid. :russwat:

Looks like Brian Shaw got a taste of that same medicine in Denver.

@ Little Penny.


Penny's knee injury. Hate to see that happen to real talented players.


Random but :shaqlols: @ The Warriors trading away 3 future 1st rounders and Penny for Chris Webber. WTF was Don Nelson thinking?

@ Shaq saying there shouldn't be no free agency.

They were spot on with this 30 for 30. Shaq's agent was a piece of shyt but wasn't an angel either in Orlando.

I truly feel for Penny

The Orlando Magic was one of the luckiest franchises ever during the 90s to the point that it's fans thought the fairy tale was going to last forever.

The fans scoffing at the thought of paying their stars was small market teams at their worst. The Magic went through that so other small markets (San Antonio, Sacramento, etc) didn't have to.

When Orlando lost that game one to the Rockets in the finals , that was it. Everyone knew would be back and the Magic was on borrowed time after 1995.

Yeah, they were more popular than the "Greatest show on earth" 1995-96 Chicago Bulls, but they weren't taken seriously after Houston stole their souls

downplayed his ego here GREATLY in this film of how he really was in Orlando but so did the Magic's front office.

Have two straight #1 draft picks in your team's first five years of existence brehs



BTW ESPN, when are you finally going to air that 30 for 30 on the Kings staying in Sac


Like we really need ANOTHER Cleveland sports documentary

 

[The War Report]

Damn. This IS eerily similar to the OKC Thunder story.

I was thinking the same shyt. OKC is gonna be next on the Summer Jam screen.

 

[The War Report]

OKC looking like the Magic

Russ gonna die carrying that franchise if KD leaves

If KD leaves, Russ is leaving.

 

[LezJepzin]

HOUSTON FANS WITH THE BROOMS IN THE STANDS...I could have sworn they showed the fans chasing the magic bus with brooms?

Houston stayed disrespecting them during that finals. I remember the Rockets public address announcer playing the Disney song "It's a small world" when introducing the Magic starting line up

 

[The War Report]

Shaq blaming his youth for his massive ego is such bullshyt. He still has a massive ego til this day. Dude is mad defensive.

 

[Piff Huxtable]

T-Mac watching in his house like

just fast forwarded to Dwight

that's a shame

T-Mac and Pat Garrity carried that franchise in the post Shaq/Penny era
