Heres hoping Nike brings back all of the un-retroed pennys and he wears them in Heat colors… Black and Red Penny IIs would be murderous…

Someone needs to post the YouTube link of the Lil Penny commercial where Nick Anderson is reading SLAM. I’d do it myself, but I have no interest in being one of those “awaiting moderation” people.

So Miami is pretty serious abot keeping this whole “oldest team in the NBA” thing, huh. Oh well, let’s start taking bets. Twenty two games until season ending injury.

GM’s are signing and trading like it’s NBA Live 1998… I hope they bring Rik Smits back so he can do another behind the back pass. That was awesome.

Madtice: a highlight for dutch basketball. Remember who he passed it to? Jayson Williams. It always makes me angry tha the author of the funniest basketball book ever (Loose Balls) shot someone. (loose cannon?)

Reminds me of an ‘in your face’ column in SLAM’s 100th issue abt Penny & Shaq…

Aug.10 at 8:13 am

SLAM ONLINE | » Penny and Shaq: Fredo returns to Michael’s home says:
[…] Penny Hardaway, he of the unlimited potential in his youth, and extremely limited post-op knees, is returning to Shaq’s side. I can be a misty-eyed sentimentalist as much as the next man, and of course I remember the dominance of that young Orlando team, but what about these incredible quotes from Shaq a few years ago: “The difference between those three is the Godfather trilogy,” O’Neal said in classic Shaq-speak. “One is Fredo, who was never ready for me to hand it over to him. One is Sonny, who will do whatever it takes to be the man, and one is Michael, who if you watch the trilogy, the Godfather hands it over to Michael. So I have no problem handing it over to Dwyane.” […]

First, Reggie (42), then Allan (37), and now Penny (36) all want to make comebacks. Some one needs to start testing NBA players for HGH.

The Heat are taking this Golden Girls, old players comes to Miami for their twilight years, we don’t need athleticism because we have experience thing too far.

Khalid, don’t put it all on us. If the Celts sign Reggie, their average team age goes to 47.

In the words of Scoop: It’s been a long time/I shouldn’t have left you/without a strong game to step to/think of how many weak events you slept through/Shaq-Fu/sorry I kept you. It’s ok now, cause they’re reunited. And it feels so good. Steven I agree, retro the penny II’s now.

albie1kenobi says:
awesome comments as i expected. that’re just so many things to be commented on with this signing. anyone remember that last time these two played together they got sweeped? well it was the bulls and MJ on a mission, but they still got sweeped. (in fact shaq got sweeped the first 3 seasons he was in the playoff)

It’s funny that Penny and GHill’s careers followed similar paths (GHill missing a lot more time though), but Penny gets nowhere near the same amount of sympathy that Grant does.
Did Penny do something to turn ppl off along the way?

Aug.11 at 12:25 am

Jukai says:
SA, maybe people get him confused with Tim “Acceptance” Hardaway?

Aug.13 at 10:34 am

cjb says:
i’ll tell you why penny doesn’t gent the sympathy G.Hill Did.
1. the 100 million dollar contract
2. the 100 million dollar nike deal/commercial
grant has received half the money he has yet has been slightly more preductive and nobody’s more humble then g.hill on this planet.

get off of ghill’s jock…..penny donates time and money to help in the community…now if ghill wasn’t able to negotiate a phat sweet contract like penny and chris webber back in the day,that is his fault, his dad was in the NFL, penny did not know his father and handled his biz…wha wha, penny is worth every penny…penny playing for the hell of it and not the money.

Chad Nothe says:
I’m real excited Penny’s back. He was my favorite player growing. Now that my fav. Bibby is hurt it’s great to see him on the court again. I’m a Slam subscriber, so it’s good to get him back in the magazine.
God Bless, Chad

alika says:
go ask T-mac.. go ask anyone wearing a 1 on their jersey who their favorite player was. Go ask MJ who HE picked to be the next Jordan during the ‘95 all star game. Penny was sick, the best in the league at one point. I grew up in orlando, Shaq dug out cus penny was becoming a bigger star than he was. then penny got a bad rep for getting brian hill fired. Penny was just speaking for the team as a captain. there hasn’t been a more humble player than penny. i think if you take all the players in their prime, regardless of career achievments, penny is right there in the top 10-15!!!
