Nike lil Penny classic commercial

[shakar252]

Yes Chris Rock was lil' Penny's voice & no him and T-Mac shouldn't be categorized together Penny was like Magic, but played more above the rim....T-MAC was never a point guard

[TheBdavis231]

Before Tmac there was Penny

[MIKESOWELL]

Tyra needs my penis.

[SkywarpMach7]

@MIKESOWELL

Please Mike control your primitive impulses ..... lol

[MIKESOWELL]

[667newdevilgod]

@MIKESOWELL

Wait in line, Mike.

[dontsay10]

Dang man that is crazy how these guy was the man and then Injuries Sunk in sad.. Would him and and T-mac fit in the same category?

[Lorenshyne]

[kbms24]

tyra banks was still hot there

[mcluvin28x]

Chris Rock ?

[TheDaniel407]

i agree but i feel...why cant life be this great anymore? the 90's the golden era of the nba...damn i miss it

[coolmeto1]

is it chris rock or chris tuckher

[tonytigereyes]

THAT'S TYRA BANKS FOOL!

[jrg276]

He could have been of the greatest ever had he not had so many injuries. Regardless he is still a favorite of mine

[Epimpin101]

lol Chris Rock is the voice, i never remembered that... thats bad ass.

[AciddReign]

I hate how injurys fuck up players careers. Penny had so much potential to an already good career start. and my man Vince

[budkin]

Would have been one of the all time greats but for his knees.

[Rainman654321]

lol at 0:47 when the guy takes a cannonball to the chest lol

[thegr8critic]

[trulogic]

[trulogic]

[90sRapForeverChannel]

I posted a rare air penny commercial from when they played in japan. thanks

/watch?v=T9DvzXLEz8w

[psychocat20]

"You guys remind me of my shoe closet. I got one Penny, and a bunch of loafers."

[DAPDave]

Maaaaaaaan, Penny Hardaway was my favorite back in the day. It's sad how his career went fell the way it did.. He was great at one time.  This commercial really brings back a lot of memories for me.

[casedaddy2010]

I like the rocket ship

[corwinorr]

I have no idea why I used to think these were so funny!

[willworkforkickz1111]

Damn tyra was sexy back then

[fliprocks]

LOL If it weren't for that rotten puppet this commercial could've been good

[NallePu83]

Love the 90s NBA!

[megatroll]

"Ice cream falls and bubbles float" ^^

Classic.

[snpdo]

still got the retros on ice and just got the hoh 3's, knew i shouldnt have slept on those fuckin royal 3s... only bitches im missin...

[1TheBestMan1]

I GOT THOSE PENNY!!!X)

[Auto0725]

Epic fucking commercial right here! 'The only time you guys yell box-out is when you're out of donuts!" LOL!

[skillz0122]

Classic

[ycuxx1]

Actually if you listen good,the lyrics to the song is actually talking about the commercial.It's different to the Jordan commercial,just that they must of gotten the same little boy (Songs like a boy to me) to sing it over.At the beginning it say "Penny,Penny,your so cool,balloons pop,time stops,ice-cream falls,bubbles float" Listen good,you can see tyra blowing bubbles,the lil girl with the ice-cream,lil penny with the bubble gum,nd the boy with the balloon.

[Judo2333]

@ycuxx1 you write like shit man

[MrRealityKid]

@Judo2333 actually that was 1 year ago,since then my account (ycuxx1) has been suspended,this is my new account.

[kingovharts]

Actually this commercial was spoofing a classic Jordan commercial at the time. Same music and slow effects.

[MrJeckel]

... when i look at penny's career i almost have to shift to how t-mac's is ending... just a shame. without the damn injuries to both they would have been HOF guys. now they are just... ya. but good commercial lil penny was the best back in the day.

[seejaz]

sorry guys i dont know much bball, but is that the real penny dunking the ball and is that tyra banks blowin bubbles?

[popwarfirm2]

hahahahahahaha everything was so random like one second a dog, then goes back to him and a rocketship lol!

[DJDEMO1000]

before the mvpuppets

[KoretiGuy95]

I want those Nike socks at 0:35!

[snpdo]

Pause at :35 beauty...

[316TYJ]

penny hardaway.. what could have veen... Sad :(

[LucasInCPT]

What is that song?

[SkooLoveKool]

@LucasInCPT I don't know but it gives me chills...

[SkooLoveKool]

@LucasInCPT lol the decade of chills. That's a good one. The song may have just been made stictly for the commercial...people put more pure effort into things back then...like commercials, hip-hop, video games...everything basically. Thank God for youtube.

[LucasInCPT]

@SkooLoveKool Or the flashing of the CLASSIC Nike socks mid-commercial.

[rakinruldude14]

OMG! tyra is sooo effing HOT! this reminds me of jordan Xll taxi commercial.

[fade2black1982]

Does anybody have the foamposite commercial that aired during the first round of the '97 playoffs? I've only seen it one time and that was when it aired. I can't find it anywhere.

[IronCrescent]

I had these shoes 97, loveddd them

[osamabindrinkin40s]

Penny Hardaway could of been one of the best players. Too bad injuries hit him early.

[AzureEffect]

lol...good commercial. They took that song and slow motion from a Jordan commercial....

[IntelInside2020]

@AzureEffect-Yeah it was a parody on the Jordan commercial.

[joanna232008]

Why can't Nike commercials be this great anymore? So many memories.

[escobar60099]

lil penny >>>>> lebron & kobe puppets

[gnail]

Sigh...watching this clip just reminds the time when Penny and Tyra Banks were at their best.. But look at them now, especially Tyra Banks, yuck.

[iiTory]

@gnail TYRA BANKS IS STILL HOT FYI >;O

[claritarejoice]

Unfortunately, injuries plagued him. But back when I was 16, Penny was the guy I wanted to be. I still love him. At his prime, he was better than just about anybody in the league. Unfortunately, the current generation of basketball players probably have no idea who he is. That's a shame

[deadlyErnest1]

everytime I'm watching Penny play, I think to myself "damn, dude could have been one of the top 5 g.o.a.t."

too bad injuries ruined his career.

[natomasShoeHead]

lil penny funnt he said ''you guys remind me of my shoe collection one penny and a bunch of losers'' hahaha that that old school nike talk

[112904bcb]

Lil penny was a funny dude !

[jerseycityarod23]

i love everything about this commercial lolz...a parody of my favorite 12's commercial...lolz tyra banks lookin good still & blowin bubbles & chris rock just bein funny lolz

[terryfunku]

God this commercial is great. It takes the Jordan 12 idea and makes it hilarious.

"Penny, Penny, you're so cool... Ice cream, bubbles, bubbles pop."

[dtucker33]

thats tyra banks right?

[TDiddy8701]

anyone know the other players in this commercial? I see Bo Outlaw...

[Koolv32]

MISS BANKS

[user696969]

wtf, are you guys talking about?

[kni00002]

The box out - donuts joke is a classic!!! The dunk isn't bad either!

[Branduil]

You wouldn't want the new Branduil back anyway. The old one would have expressed sympathy when a player got injured, but now I'll just laugh.

Anyway, I'm more upset that I can't post extolling the virtue of cantaloupe in the melon thread. If someone would do that for me I might consider returning eventually.

[Branduil]

BTW, I'm not coming back. Since I hate you as much as you all hate me, I think this is a mutually beneficial arrangement. I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding someone else to gangbang when you feel the need.

[opinionatedcyborg]

Can I get my Sega Genesis games from your house this weekend? I think I lent you a few books too....

[opinionatedcyborg]

If you think this is what's best for you, then I guess we can't stop you from moving on with your life. Just don't say crazy stuff about us hating you, though. You're breaking up with us, not the other way around. Besides, just because we need a little space and time off doesn't mean we can't be friends at some point... but I guess if that's too much for you to deal with right now, you shouldn't worry about it. Maybe sometime down the road, right.

[opinionatedcyborg]

I'll always care for you. Hope you find happiness with some other group and I hope we can be friends again in the future when all this negative has blown over.

Love,

GAF OT

[harlemw651]

Thanks so much for posting this!!!!

[BrandonBanner]

This may be a dumb question but I really don't remember......whose commercial was first? Penny or jordan?

[jumpman985]

Jordan's was first of course. Jordan's Slow-Mo Commercial came out for the Taxi XII's in Fall 96. This Penny commercial is for the Penny III's which came out the next season and a year later.

[BrandonBanner]

Thanks...I mean I assumed that but I was young then and just wanted to be sure.

[emmanuelb]

that boy used to be so freakin nice

[justinhaacke]

very true. he was one of the nicest guys. great personality.

[emmanuelb]

when i say nice im referring to his talent/skill set

[justinhaacke]

so did you think he was a dick?  or do you also think he had a nice personality on top of having a nice talent/skill set?

[steviek55]

penny is my man i had those trainers

[2pacbasketball]

just like the Mj commercial- same music, same moves

[today321]

Lyricially I'm Like Penny / Before Tha Injury

[eastwestlover]

cormega nice!!!

[knowledge876]

wow tyra banks

[chitoz666]

LMFAO!!!! lil' penny...they just don't make basketball commercials like they used to!

[dbomob]

im 25. this really does make me feel old.

[igetupkidl]

im 24, and i feel the same way. i cant accept the fact that penny doesnt play anymore or that the chronic 2001 came out 8 years ago.

[chitoz666]

hell yeah I feel u on that comment...Im 25 & I saw this guy play against my spurs back in 95' & this guy penny just tore shit up...damn shame that injuries killed his career...

[JDroopXI]

I loved this commercial when i was kid lol

[jeffnfoxylady1]

injuries messed up his good career he was a tough cover for anyone including mike sometimes

[MastaGambit4ever]

it's a pity he never won any ring,and Shaq got rings in La and Mia. damn! anyway Penny U DA MAN!

[liweiwu007]

cuz shaq betrayed him. he would have won if he was healthy.

[T2Runner]

.. This commercial is the shit.. brings back memories from back in the day.. I wish Hardaway had an opportunity to make a better exit from the game.

[AI913]

What's the meaning?

[chitoz666]

damn I soooo remember this commercial from back in the ol' school nba dayz...anferny penny hardaway wuz the shit!!! ol' school nba wuz awesome! todays nba just flat out SUCKS!!!!

[Joggiestyles]

Penny All the Way!!!

[Ives3789]

"The only time you guys yell box-out is when you're outta donuts"

LOL

[pmind86]

so funny

[ibn1989]

what is this commercial about? i don't get it

[DestructerX]

its called "frozen moment" it is a parody of michael jordans frozen moment commercial.

[NCCAJAX]

@DestructerX You are just a dumb nigra aint ya boy

[lilbignoob]

If it wasnt for injury he woulda been the best.

[RecksJr]

@lilbignoob Still is one of the best who did it back then. But at least he had a valid reason for being washed up in his final seasons. There will never be another Penny Hardaway ever again. Top 5 PG of the 90's in my book

[rsmith3200]

one of the best player ever!!!!

[rsmith3200]

one of the best player ever!!!!

[cryophile]

You know, the Lil' Penny puppet was made by M5 Industries, the company owned by Jamie Hyneman of Mythbusters fame.

[JHCBMD2008]

good to know. thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[djmdm]

Great parody/commercial on the Jordan 12s.

@ 00:30 you can totally hear the kid singing say:

"Ice cream fall down,.. bubbles bust!"

Haha.

[kanekane28]

Damn Tyra's hot. Wait a sec, what was this commercial about? Something about pennies right?

[MrrKappa]

maybe... naaaah, definitely bout Tyra :D

[6academic6]

lil penny's voice is actually chris rock's voice right?

[DB3HEAT]

yep.

[LakersDynasty42]

Yeah, Chris Rock in Lil' Penny.

[Stimchi]

lesson to all you ballers with NBA dreams. take care of your body. take your injuries seriously. cuz' like what happened to Penny, can happen to you.

[dis1z4la6rasa]

damn tyra was bad back then

[fresherdenyall]

isnt this the same commercial MJ had for the playoff 12S? like alost EXACTLY the same...dope commercial non the less =-)

[Seahawks604]

yea it iss

[jameshaire]

The MJ commercial was for the Taxis, a regular season game v the Lakers. Not the Playoffs.

[Seahawks604]

awesome commercials brings me back to the old days with penny and lil penny, nbc, and the classic shaqq

[prettyboyelroy]

is that Tyra at 0:59?

[Metalstryke]

yes

[sneakerpheen]

damn this shit makes me wanna cry. This is what the shoe game use to be. Fuckn makes me cry. Classic.

[TonyRomoAKARayFinkle]

penny was the man ..funkin injuries..damn

[austin0987nba]

they nee to make some commercials like this now

[nymusic104]

Penny was the the SH#T..I still believe their wasnt and never will be another player that could do some of the things penny did..He just made the game look so smooth..He was by far one of the funniest players to watch..This commerical was way ahead of its time..It looks like it was done yesterday..90's basketball was the best..I miss those days when you could just sit by the TV on sundays and watch players like Penny on NBC..One of the biggest mistakes was leaving NBC..Anyway Penny U da Man..

[alleydaprince]

Why did you stop playin?

[nymusic104]

[alleydaprince]

Didn't he use to play basketball?

[Djgdub]

[kent504]

[flipafloppers]

This is my Favorite commercial ever.

[jondxsc]

What is the name of the song or tune in the background when Penny Hardaway goes for the slam dunk?

[roncarl9]

you remind of my shoe closet.. one penny and a bunch of loafers

[emceegrim]

this is genius

[enocloke24]

[biglex42]

[XLSaga]

haha it's totally making a parody of the air joran 12 with the song

[timyochengaz]

haha the frozen moment by jordan. this ones way better!

[jaapa07]

Penny's story is so bittersweet. He was my favorite player back in the day...too bad he had those injuries.

[friedjoshy]

Penny was a phenomenal player, he could have been anything, more than likely a future hall of famer. Injuries recked him, i think we only saw glimpses of his best.

[maberry21]

had those shoes... classic...

[marbie83]

poor tyra was so bored she had to blow bubbles and read a gay book! lol. i remember this commercial i was totally in love wit penny and i still am. its because of him i grew more in love with basketball and still watch it today. i will always be greatful to him no matter what!

[brown671]

penny in his prime was a great player and could have been one of the best if he stayed healthy probably as good as kobe.Pennys rookie year he avg 16.0 pts kobe avg 7.6 his rookie year

[badmon1123]

was that tyra banks?
