Penny's IQ was still relevant after his athleticism was Stripped. He still was a match up problem in the lowpost and a lethal stand still shooter from outside. Kobe was just so raw like a combination of 60% Jordan with 40% of VanExel's handles hesitation dribble moves and both their elusiveness.
@Shove This L Up Your Ass Would had been an all star reserve, barring injuries. He was better than Finley/Stockton. He peaked in the second half of the season
This was Prime Kobe versus busted up post op Penny still held his own in stretches but there was no way he was suppose to be compared to Kobe . Prime Penny would have gave Kobe some work
@@shotgunkingj1670 2004 -2006 was the Twight light of his prime . KOBE'S athletic/Skill pinnacle Prime was definitely 2001 -2005. He just was in a Straight jacket playing in shaq's shawdow eventho he High Key carried shaq's hating ass 🤣
The Suns clearly got robbed on that game with a clear foul on Hardaway on the drive before the game winning shot by Kobe, but the Lakers would have won the series anyway as no one could stop Shaq
Penny’s game was so smooth
Indeed
This is not even his prime

Phoenix suns Penny was nice too.
Yea, in 2000 season he was decent till Marbury came.
@@ButtZilla He got the micro fracture surgery after their 2000 playoff run ended. That pretty much took away all the athleticism he had left.

@Shove This L Up Your Ass First half of 2001-02 was decent too. Averaged right under 20. Then they benched him for Joe Johnson
@@ΠατροκλοςΓεωργιοςΟικονομοπουλο the first month was over 20.
Penny HARDAWAY!!!!!!!!!
Shaquille O'Neal file Penny Hardaway on that last shot
0:52 that's great defense. Clean. No foul.
That wasn't clean at all 😅😅 His off hand was literally pushing Penny away from the basket.
@@jimmyrodriguez5670 kinda weak
@@ArmandoKozomara Your assessment? I agree. Kinda weak.
@@jimmyrodriguez5670 Kobe D rider, u cant use logic w/ him
foul
kobe. R I p.. But a healthy penny would be way too much.
Yep if you know you know.
So Kobe not guarding Penny (Defense)
But Penny guarding Kobe (Defense)
Kobe owns him

@@carlwallace1129 Nah 2000 was still a young Kobe but definitely not his prime. Maybe years 2004-2006 a prime Kobe for sure.
@@carlwallace1129 in Kobe’s defense, Penny gave everyone that work equally 😂😂

If penny was 100% healthy, even prime Kobe would have a very tough time to guard penny
Facts! Prime Jordan couldn't really guard him at the post
I guess so, we can see penny still got it at this point
@ButtZilla Yeah but Penny couldnt guard MJ anywhere tho
He already did. penny outplayed him in this playoff series
If this is Magic Penny from 94-96, Kobe would have gotten served big time! Penny is the greatest WHAT IF aside from Grant Hill.
