      First time I heard of Penny was before he got to the NBA. Back then college basketball was better than the NBA. Me and my friends were talking about CB and the good teams and players then. And one of my friends said Memphis had this guy named Penny who might be the best player in college. I started watching his highlights and although I thought he was good Webber to me was the absolute best college BB player at that time.

    I met Penny Hardaway when I was 12 years old. He was very nice and cool. At the time I was going through a lot because my mother was just killed. He obviously didn't know that but him shaking my hand just made one more day easier. This was in 1992. And I will tell you he is the greatest basketball player that I have ever seen with my own two eyes in person. And on TV I haven't seen nobody better unless it was Michael Jordan. Penny Hardaway was class personified on and off the court. Me trying to be like him kept me out a lot of trouble up until a certain point. He most definitely should be in the Hall of Fame oh, that should have happened long time ago. There is not one player that possess the skills that Penny Hardaway does collectively in my humble opinion. I have never seen anyone with better post foot moves and footwork. And he was like a human pogo stick Jumpin Out The Gym. And his defense was spectacular. And you could not leave him open from 3. The only person I've ever seen with a better mid-range shot than Penny Hardaway was Michael Jordan if that's even accurate. And his passing ability oh my goodness you talking about reflexes like a cat. I remember those days back in beginning of the 90s. Penny we forever love you thank you for all the great memories.

    Man had Penny stayed healthy for the majority of his career, he would've won at least one championship.

One of my favorite players to watch growing up and also the first jersey I ever had thanks to my dad... shame what injuries did, but in his prime with Shaq, this man was a walking bucket.

I thought traditionally that PG were supposed to be the shortest yet fastest guys on the team. But seeing a 6'7 Point who was so explosive and quick that it looked unreal. The way Penny moves with the ball looked so smooth and his creativity with the ball really left and impression and developed my love for basketball as a little kid

    Here's what is lost on people when watching Penny Hardaway highlights. For a guy of his length Penny had the quickest feet I have ever seen. Penny had long legs and a long torso and yet he (when healthy) was one of the quickest, most mobile guys on the court any given night. When ever anyone wants to say Westbrook is the most athletic PG ever (justifiably so) I tell them watch Penny Hardaway vids.

With his commercials, shoes and other endorsements he was a true force to be reckoned with. If it wasn't for them knees and ankles he would've won multiple rings. You are not forgotten my guy!

      Penny was starting to get Jordan and Magic level attention.
      Same way he started getting jealous of Kobe. Really him and Kobe started being jealous of each other.
      He knew when he went to Miami he couldn’t have any tension with DWade or people would have noticed a pattern. Plus he was on the decline.
      To this day Shaq suffers from attention jealousy.
      You don’t gotta tell me his stats I watched them play in real time. I been watching Shaq his whole career dude is who he is.
      It has nothing to do with how great he was as a player or his stats. It was about his physical limitations, Shaq always wished he could do all the things that guards could do. All the fancy dribble moves and passes he liked that.
      You guys gotta learn to evaluate things from a 3 dimensional perspective. It will help you learn how to maneuver in this world.
