Imagine how easily he would have picked apart zones. Excellent ball handler, goat level midrange shooting, excellent cutting ability, great at moving without the ball.

Imagine teams getting frustrated trying to zone him so they use man defense. Only problem is they aren't allowed to touch him. :sadcam:

imagine him baiting refs like James Harden and shooting 20 free throws a game

Imagine him destroying the man on man defense so bad that teams start double teaming him.

Imagine the fact that he now has a modern roster. He's got 2-3 guys on the floor at all times who will knock down the 3 ball if theyre open in the corner. Either play him straight up or let a 40% 3 point shooter get wide open looks. :francis:

Imagine him getting into the paint and having to score over a power forward masquerading as a center, or a white guy. :lolbron:

Imagine how many shoes he sells compared to the other stars of a league if hes CURRENTLY playing. They cant even keep up with him and hes been retired for over 10 years :mjlol:

Imagine him having tools like instagram to take dudes wives and not having to do it in person at resturants :wow:

Imagine not having to hear fools question who the goat is because the answer would be right in front of us :blessed:

I hear you but the real question is:

How much more dominant would Penny have been playing in the 2010s?

I mean he could dunk without jumping in the 90s. He could snap his fingers and shatter basketballs...i think he would be like the last act of interstellar, on some fabric of reality shyt...he would be the hallway scene in the Matrix 1 and everyone else would be agent smith.

Penny with the ball =>

<= other guards trying to handcheck

Penny hardaway really is the 1 :whoo:

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. As you well know, we have a glaring dearth of MJ era comparison threads on this board. You've really added a lot to the discussion and texture of The Coli.

He would be a villa and never immortalized. So if we get MJ, move Kobe to the 80/90s and you will see the truth

The media makes or breaks everything. Jordan will be hated in todays game. Kobe would be what MJ was.
