Jordan and Nike had plans for Penny. He was going to be MJs Eastern Nemesis until the end. Man that guy was everything to us in Memphis. Just for him to be a rival of Jordan for a small while made us so proud of him.
Penny also had the first PEs with blue 1 on back. Mane I remember like yesterday summer 94 Calvin Golden at Snowden jr high summer practice. True sneaker head.
@@doit207 definitely. Back then I knew the starting 5 of nearly every team and definitely the star player of each team. It was so exciting because practically every game had a star going up against another star.
This made my cry. I've been a long time fan of Penny Hardaway. As a kid growing up I always look up to Penny and MJ and to know this info oh my!! I'm so happy for Penny.
Yow Stop tht man you're bringing tears to my eyes bcse those 3 Players were Astronomical, I tell youngsters today tht " LECHOKE " is NO Where Close to wht any of those guys wudve turned out to be if not for injuries. Grant Hill, Anfernee Penny Hardaway & Derrick Rose were 3 Monsters
Always wondered where Penny Hardaway and Grant Hill would've fallen on the All-Time Greats List if they didn't get injured ... And maybe Larry Johnson also
You would have a 5 way discussion about who is the closest to Jordan: grant, penny, mcgrady, kobe, and LeBron. In my opinion penny and mcgrady if not injured would have topped kobe and LeBron easily in the debate
@@actionpakd07 According to Jordan himself Penny would have been the closest to him but it sucked that injures got to Penny really early in his career. Lebron doesn't play Jordans style and one thing that Lebron really doesn't have that Jordan, Penny, Kobe, Hill, and McGrady have is that killer instinct. Lebron has ha great games but he lacks that killer instinct that the others had at all times.
Wow!!!!!! That sent chill's through my body so I can imagine how penny felt. Kids these days will never know how dope penny was before Kobe came in the game and injuries took penny out but it was a amazing story I'm completely blown away
I remember this. Penny was and still is my favorite player of all time. I still have vhs tapes of his games and a interview of MJ giving Penny much respect.
MJ knew how talented Penny was, he had no weaknesses in his game coming out of college. Hopefully Penny makes the HOF, he has the second best sneaker line just straight facts! Those Air Flight 1's are a great hoop shoe.
You took me back to my childhood and made me cry 😢.Then u said the Air Jordan back in dose days if u had a pair Jordan's u wired the bomb.I always wanted a pair but lived in proverty in my childhood and looking back I never have own a pair of Jordans.
Goes to show you the respect MJ had for Penny. Penny was definitely next in line to become the face of the NBA. He had the talent/skill plus the marketability. The injury bug prevented Penny from becoming an all-time great 🏀
You didn't watch that series? Everybody was buzzing about that the next day. In a way, Jordan gave the Pennys the hype, even though the next two releases would not need much help as they would also be some of the most iconic Nikes of the era in their own right.
Orlando won that series. They seemed to be primed to take over the league. Then Chicago adding another All-Star and great defender Dennis Rodman. Then Penny was injured and Shaq left for L.A. the rest is history.
I remember watching that series. I never knew he wore his shoes though. I do remember that fine for wearing the white j’s though. Guess you can learn something on RUclips. Lol
You all missed one very important detail about this story. The G.O.A.T. could have worn his own, mostly white, shoes that he wore in the first 2 games for Game 3 and not have been fined. Game 3 was in Chicago, a home game. He wore the black Penny's for the sole purpose of being fined again. You all should be ashamed of yourselves.
Penny put the agile in fragile.... He and grant hill are the 2 greatest what ifs in the history of basketball!!! The foamposite penny’s that came out in 94-95ish were ahead of their time. 180$ way back then. Needless to say I never had em. Lol
Simply amazing! That's one helluva gem u just dropped on us! I never knew, or thought MJ would ever do this, being the competitor, and Alpha-Male he was! It speaks volumes on the respect he must've had for Penny, bc let's be real...a fine to MJ is nothing...chump-change😃 this is a story I'm gonna share with some of my fellow sports fans, and sneaker-heads! I genuinely thank you for this piece of history** 🤙🏽🏀💎🐐
Penny was super explosive. That boy was cutting and slashing ridiculously and finishing anything close to the rim with a slam.Jordan is the G O A T but Penny got BUSY as well. Watch his footage b4 injuries

Relax Kobe shot the ball better than penny. They both were extraordinary athletes. So they are even there. Skill wise,,,,tough here but Imma give Kobe the edge here. A plethora of moves from any where and any position on the floor. Penny had very high skills and he had a post game as well against smaller guards. His fade away was good. Kobe had that one two dribble pull up and it was money. Defense come on its Kobe bro and scoring wise too. Passing and vision its clearly penny here. Without a doubt. Kobe can playmake with the best of em but this is penny nitche. Penny in today's game would thrive.
@@jayjohnson7646 I agree on everything you said, BUT you forget that you have to compare them when at the same age. Kobe at his prime was a beast, but do you remember how he played when he was 22? penny never reached his prime yet he could already compete with mj! Kobe was great but he was not half as good as penny when you compare how they played at a young age. Imagine penny at his prime... such a shame it didnt happen
thank you i was gonna write that Mike played like chess he was not very nice to competition so out of respect i think not first thought came to mind was im gonna shit on you wearing yo shit nigga im Jordan it was also a way to steal his spot light everyone would be on mikes dick about pennys shows likw we are now 30 odd years later penny and shack was my favorite traded a jordan card for a penny card my friends thought i was dumb but was not a fan of mike cuz i looked like a dick rider back in 93 doing that shaq attack was my nigga
Penny Hardaway is My Favorite coming from NYC!!! Shout out to Memphis TENN( shout out to my Funky Town Bound Niggas in M-Town)- been there in the late 1990s
💪💪🔥🔥 I never knew that in 47 years living on this Earth I've been calling Michael Jordan since he first signed to the Bulls in 1980 WRAT pool I remember when my mom bought me my first pair of Michael Jordan red black and white God bless everyone happy Memorial day be safe
1) Nike would've just paid the 5k fine. 2) Nike would've had 20 different colourways of 11s ready for Mike to run on Court. MJ wore pennys to get in the magic's heads.
And how would asking Penny to wear his shoes - gotten into the Magic's head. The Magic's team was very young - not sure a team that young would have thought that deep.
Whenever I saw a Jordan Video recommended by youtube I always delete it not because I hate MJ actually I'm a Jordan fan but got sick every time everyone worships Jordan. But this video made me think twice. Great content on your story man. Thanks for this
The XII's were not far off. They retailed for 175.00 at the time (97). Foams were always expensive. From Penny's to it's cousins like the version Tim Duncan wore.

Norman Kelly yep, I actually planned to watch games back then. Today, I can’t watch one game without losing interest after the first quarter.

Penny Hardaway was one of the most unique ball players I've ever seen. He had game and swagger. The pennys were hot in the mid 90s.
Those Pennies are relevant today.
Kevin Ames not like Jordans. They’re like an “oh I remember that run” as opposed to “he got on dem space jams!!!”
When the foams were dirt cheap at 100 to 120 a pair. if I knew what I knew now I would’ve bought a whole shit load of penny’s foams.
Cliff Hill not if u from dc bro lmao
Clyde Davis so Pennies hold more weight than Jay’s??? Y’all hold this L DC!!!
Penny was suppost to be the next best thing since Jordan. Injuries robbed us from that . Penny was sensational

Really? Jordan’s weren’t even that much back then
not really the detail and construct of the shoe bumped the price up...it was super unique
Naaa we was paying for the shoe ...there was no shoe like the foams when they came out ....plus they looked like space shoes at that time
The XII's were not far off. They retailed for 175.00 at the time (97).
