McGrady couldn't go past the 1st round with a Prime Yao.
Give me Penny, at least he and Shaq went to the finals, and didn't he score 42 points against prime Pippen and Jordan?

I'd probably take Penny over TMac.

Peak Penny put up 21/4/7 with 2 stls on .605 TS%.
Peak Hill put up 21/9/7 with 2 stls on .556 TS% or 26/7/5 on .565 TS%
[B]Not only this, but Grant Hill was one of the best perimeter defenders in the league.[/B][/QUOTE]
Grant Hill was not a great defender back then. He actually only became a good defender some how in Phoenix a few years ago.
And I don't care about the stats. And even if I do, I don't understand what you are showing there...because those stats are pretty equal...one of them rebounds better (the one who was a small forward as opposed to a PG) and one of them shot more efficiently.

Prime Jordan is 1990 - 1993. So no. And I believe you're confusing his lone back to back 40 point games against Riley's Heat. Defensive juggernauts who never had double 40s dropped on them. I really prefer Penny's combination of scoring, and distribution. He was a refined post player too coming out the gates. He had nice dimension to his game.
Penny.
They were both similar scorers with Penny being more efficient, except Penny was better at carrying a team than Tmac.
