Shaq and Penny brought great energy and they made the game fun to watch every given night.  With Penny and Shaq pushing the tempo of games, you are bound for memorable moments.  From finesseful passes to alley oops, this pair would soon create a championship worthy team.   Shaquille O'Neal was drafted by the Orlando Magic in 92' and a year later Penny landed on the team.  Penny Hardaway was drafted by the Golden State Warriors then eventually traded to the Magic.  In 1994, the Magic went to the NBA Finals to get swept by the Houston Rockets.  Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler had spoiled the teams hopes of a ring.  Shaq and Penny in the 95' season led the team to reach the Eastern Conference facing the Bulls.  However Jordan and the Bulls came on top leaving the "Magical Duo" ringless during the Orlando Era.  This showtime scoring duo came to a close when Shaq became a free agent after the 95' season and joined the Lakers on a max contract.
