    I’m from Orlando and this is how I remember, they couldn’t afford Webber because they paid shaq so much. Penny was booed in the beginning because he got the wrath of the fans wanting Webber and he never forgot that. Shaq has no loyalty, or ability to hit a free throw and an ego bigger than him. Penny was a good dude, he made huge donations to a non profit organization that my grandmother founded to find missing and endangered children, and that money alone kept the doors open for a while.

    You made a couple of mistakes: Todd Fuller was the Warriors pick traded to Magic in the 1996 Draft but that pick went back to GSW via WAS. So he was NOT selected by Orlando. The pick in 1998 was NOT Keon Clark, it was Vince Carter. Again, this pick went back to GSW via WAS.
    But here's a thought:
    Ok, Orlando traded down in the 1993 Draft to get Penny. Now, after the 1993-94 season, the Orlando Magic decide to upgrade the PF position and chose to sign Horace Grant. But to free up some Cap space they have to move somebody and so they traded Scott Skiles to the (back then) Bullets along with two future 1st round Draft picks (GSW '96 and GSW '98). Just a couple of weeks later, CWebb demands a trade from GSW and they trade him to the Bullets for Gugliotta, their own 2000 Draft pick AND the two GSW picks they just got from Orlando.
    Now if the Magic stayed pat in the 1994 Offseason and didn't make the trade with Washington, they would have been able to make an offer for Webber by themselves. They could have put together the by far best package including up to 6 future 1st round Draft picks (3 GSW picks and 3 of their own). A young trio of Shaq, Penny AND Webber would be a dynasty in the making.

    Todd Fuller was selected by golden state in 96. After giving Orlando it's 96,98,2000 first round picks for Webber...the magic gave the bullets G.S. pick because they owed the bullets a first rounder from a previous draft. Washington used that 96 pick plus a 98 and 2000 first rounder and Tom googliota (prolly spelled that wrong) to trade to G.S. for Chris Webber. So the warriors actually got back the 96 first rounder they sent to Orlando in the hardaway Webber deal and selected Todd Fuller. Crazy shit

    Great video, but Todd Fuller never played for the Magic. There's a fun story about that 1996 and 1998 pick. The Magic traded those picks a year later along with Scott Skiles to the Bullets for another 1st round pick in 1998 and a 2nd round pick. My guess is they added Skiles as a salary dump to pay Penny. The Bullets would then take those two picks along with another first rounder and Tom Gugliotta and trade it to the Warriors for wait for it...Chris Webber. The Warriors would later that same season trade Gugliotta for Donyell Marshall, so the Warriors ultimately traded Penny and their 2000 pick for Marshall. Hurts even more that they took Fuller over Kobe and swapped Vince for Jamison, even though he was a solid player.

    • @geirfuglinn2213

      You're right that they traded Skiles as a salary dump, but it wasn't to pay Penny, as he had only just finished his rookie season. They needed the cap space so they could sign Horace Grant as a free agent.

Obviously, they miss out on Grant without the cap space. Could they have eased tension between Shaq and Penny? What if they draft Kobe with the GS pick in '96 or Vince in '98? If they have Kobe, do they pass on Vince and get someone like Dirk? Only a dream.

      And about D-Rose, not so sure. In order to prevent injuries, he would have had to stop playing so recklessly with his body, and considering he would have LeBron, he really could slow down a little. But I doubt D-Rose would take it easy...

On the absolute positive side CWeb had a side which totally covers Shaq's weaknesses.

    Orlando traded that 1996 pick (and the `98 pick) to the Wizards (who ironically traded it to Golden State for Webber). So they didn't draft Fuller. That picture of Fuller is from 5 years later.
    If Shaq's ego got in the way with Penny, it would've gotten in the way with C-Webb. Plus Webber's ego was quite fragile, especially early in his career. He worked in Sacramento because he was the man.
    If Webber stayed in Orlando, we might have gotten that Rockets/Bulls final in 1995.

    Shaq told magic to pick penny bc he knew they be a good duo more than Webber. I believe it was worth it bc they had a sure thing to win a chip. It’s only Magic’s fault to pick the wrong players to draft bc if they picked Kobe it would’ve been the best trade in the history of nba

    That era of power forward was fun to watch. Each skilled in different aspect of the game.

    As regards the Magic, I would have still kept Penny but tried harder on next drafts.
    Unbelievable that they passed on those players ! Never knew it...

    Great video Andy. It would be amazing to watch TD/ Robinson agaisnt Shaq/Webber. Maybe the Magic could win at least one championship, and two as the highest. It's true they could dominate the east, but i don't think the Magic front office could build a three peat caliber team as Jerry West did with the Lakers, in some way, the Spurs front would've done a better team.

    Hey @andy hoops Andy.. We cannot and we can never assume that if both of them never got traded they will be injured.. Who knows if C.Web and Penny stays in Magic and Warriors respectively they wont get injured. Different situation, different circumstances.

  • @darkangels119
    @darkangels119 4 года назад

    Without the benefit of hindsight, I feel like the Magic made the best decision for them at the time. It makes sense for them to trade a big man for a prolific point guard along with three future first round picks. It seems like an easy decision to make on paper when you consider how dominant of a big man Shaq was when Webber was a power forward. IF I was in 1993, I would have relished at the opportunity to pair Shaq with a dynamic perimeter guard that can space the floor and shoot the ball, rather than allowing Weber and Shaq to clog the paint and play in a tight space. Those three draft picks COULD have been used to draft impact players that would outweigh the talent discrepancy between Weber and Anfernee. Clearly, the only reasons we are discussing this are: 1. Injuries 2. The Magic making STUPID draft selections
    Side note: Imagine how many championships Shaq would have won with Penny and/or Kobe if he put his ego in the back seat, and just focused on training and eating well

    • @owainkanaway8345
      @owainkanaway8345 4 года назад

      Management made a lot of stupid decisions that tore that team apart. I mean why did they keep Brian Hill? It was pretty evident that Hill can't coach worth a damn when they got swept by the Rockets, a team on paper at least had the inferior roster. I know experience had a lot do with the Rockets winning, but the Magic got swept, they weren't even competitive when they lost. Orlando clearly had a coaching problem and the front office couldn't see that. John Gabriel was fucking dumb as hell, this is the same guy who no longer wanted Penny after the 99 season was over, and I think it was his dumb decision to low-ball Shaq.

    Another great super team that never was related to this video is the mid to late 90s Warriors. Cwebb, Chris Mullin, Sprewell and Tim Hardaway. The year Cwebb was there Hardaway was hurt and missed the entire year. If they had kept that team together and traded Billy Owens for Rony Seikaly who knows what the limit would have been.

  • @ja8ames
    @ja8ames 4 года назад

    My take is that the we probably saw the best case-scenario for Orlando, at least for a few years, the way that things did actually go. I just can't second guess that, considering how good that team was and how incredible a player Penny was. I think that we saw the super team, albeit briefly. Maybe blame MJ for coming back and keeping the Magic from being the best in the East.
    The thing that would've been good about Webber, who I was a big fan of, was that he didn't want to play center, that being one of his gripes in Golden State. Maybe he would've thrived with Shaq, for that reason. But I still like Penny more for Orlando.

    • @owainkanaway8345
      @owainkanaway8345 4 года назад

      But the front office of Orlando was incredibly stupid. They kept Brian Hill for way too long even though he was incompetent. I think it would have been better had GS kept Penny and Orlando kept Webber. Penny would have thrived under Don Nelson, and if Penny got injured, GS wouldn't have rushed Penny's recovery process like what happened in Orlando. Shaq assumes C-Webb and himself wouldn't work, but C-Webb said it himself that he would have averaged a triple-double with Shaq. Shaq and C-Webb would have been a dominant front court for years, much like Robinson and Duncan. This is why the GM should never listen to players when it comes to the draft or even when it comes to paying players. You saw how Cleveland got burned by the money they paid to JR Smith and Triston Thompson.

    If Shaq is not in LA then probably Phil won't be in LA too that will make a big difference in Kobe's career as no one will guide him to play within the system and force shots more similar to his rookie year. But, if he has Larry Brown he'd probably had a better chance winning a championship. Shaq, Kobe, and Penny in Orlando would probably be the best super team after the Chicago era.

  • @magnumcornetto
    @magnumcornetto 3 года назад

    Shaq would've been gone before Webber became an all-star. Shaq was already threatening the Magic's FO that he'd leave if he didn't get him Penny. If the Magic had stayed with C Webb, Shaq would've been mightly pissed, the team would've been worse (since Webber would've been missing games), and his agent would've had an even easier time to convince him to go to Los Angeles.
