I think people tend not to appreciate just how good pippen was and how instrumental he was to the success of that bulls dynasty. People tend to think jordan just carried the team and while pippen was a really good player he was more of a complimentary piece that was allowed to be better because of all the attention jordan drew. But in reality they had two guys that were the absolute best at their positions in all aspects of the game. Post game, shooting, ball handling, running the offense, setting up teammates, lockdown defense, rebounding. Neither of them had a single weakness that could be exploited, and teams knew when they stepped on the floor they had two legitimate superstars on both ends of the court to deal with.

I'm not going to take away Pippen accomplishments but Jordan molded Pippen to who he is. Jordan and Pippen had extreme work outs with each other in the summer of 1989 and throughout the 89-90 season to be a better player a tougher player mentally and physically. Do you all remember when Jordan retired and gave the keys to the team to Pippen and Pippen couldn't handle the leadership role because it was too much pressure? Remember when Pippen was sitting on the bench wearing a pair of Jordan's and he lifted up his foot to the camera and pointed at the Jordan symbol to motion with his finger for Jordan to come back? Jordan presence alone made Pippen and everyone else on the floor job easier.

Scottie was amazing. Did he make enemies? Sure! Did he say some things that may have been whiny or hyperbolic? Maybe, but you can't argue his contribution. No one is perfect. In all the years of watching him play, my favorite play by him was at the end of the famous `Steve Kerr shot," game against the Jazz in the 97 finals. With 5 seconds left he steals the inbound pass denying Utah a last shot. The icing on the cake was getting it to Kukoc who slammed the last points of the game and season. That play showed his defensive skill, determination, and game intelligence when it was critical.

For a couple of minutes in the last quarter I feared Phoenix might force a 7th game...Jordan was out, yet there was Scottie getting a huge rebound and asking for time out at the precise moment to calm the team down. There was also a sick dunk by him in that game and a monstrous one in Game 5. That particular series convinced me he was one of the top 10 players in history.

I dunno about that. He’s considered a top 50 player. I grew up on that Bulls team and he was pretty much irreplaceable in terms of fit. There’s very few players in my mind in the history of basketball that could have taken his place in that role, with that skill set, that intelligence on defense, that passing ability, that selflessness …that could win 6 chips with that bulls team. In recent history, I’d say Khawi Leonard and Lebron-both at least equal to better athletes. Bruce Bowan maybe-but he’ wasn’t the scorer Scottie was. Bob Horry maybe-but he wasn’t the defender Scottie was. I’m convinced Bill Russell could have played the 3 at a hof level in any era, but it would have looked a little different.

Pippen played second fiddle to Jordan the bulls with Jordan were immediately playoff bound and later champions, without Jordan struggled and those are just facts.

Despite all his missteps since retiring, I respect Pippen's game to the max. Loved Jordan to, but without Scttie, Jordan ain't winning squat. What Jordan didn't do and Jackson didn't do was protect Scottie against the Bulls persistently underlying him. It cut Scottie to the bone. On the court, the man knew his role and played it to perfection.

Scotty Pippen would terrorize players defensively, he knew the triangle offense better than the back of his hand, he could finish from any position on the floor. One significant tactic of Phil Jackson was,if MJ was on the bench, Scotty was on the floor and vice versa. More terror for the opposing team was, being attacked by both.

There’s no better duo in nba history than Jordan/Pippen
@grandinquizitor7412 Жыл бұрын
Pippen is definitely one of the best in the NBA. His game I.Q. and skill is uncanny. He and Jordan are the greatest duo the NBA has ever seen... Wow! Unfortunately, the Bulls organization did Pippen dirty with his contract; which he and his agent should've fought against. This is what caused, Pippen's resentment for the Bulls organization along with other team issues. But his style of gameplay is amazing. In fact, any NBA player from 1980's through the 1990's were far better than todays players because the league was harder and tougher back then so the level of skill and court I.Q. was unmatched even today. Although, MJ is the bonafide GOAT of the NBA hardwood, Pippen to me would be a on a list of 10 best in NBA history.

Pip is one of my favorites and he turned out to be a great two way player. He didn't start out that way though. It was those intense work out sessions he had with MJ that pushed him to the next level. Being someone who came up in Chicago during the Bulls championship runs I don't believe Pip to be underrated. I think he has been given plenty of credit for his contribution to those title runs. Few credit him more than MJ himself. That stated, I wouldn't say that he "destroyed everybody". Grant Hill was one SF who used to give Pip a hard time.

I was a season ticket holder and watched every professional game Scottie played. He was a super player. When MJ retired he led the team deal into the playoffs and they had no replacement for Michael Jordan. I think MJ is the GOAT but didn't win one championship without Scottie. Scottie endlessly burnt bridges but ppl should understand that was shortly after losing a son. Whatever his issues, his playing spoke volumes of just how good he was.

In my opinion Scottie was for a short period in the top echelon of NBA players - but was, due to Jordan (directly and indirectly) held back and as a result of that, his contract and issues with injuries etc. he became very bitter. I think for the most part he was content with playing alongside and behind Jordan, especially when it lead to Championships, but at the same time he knows that had he moved away from the Bulls during that period he would have been able to absolutely star for a team and be looked at differently.

There will never be another Pippen because no one will ever want to sacrifice themselves to be under someone else, to which a league can use the same people in it to try and take away what you helped achieve. Jordan knows he did wrong to Pippen in the Last Dance. Those transgressions Pippen did, he atoned for them. Only for his greatest teammate ever to soil his name post championships. Now Pippen calls Jordan out for what he is, and Pippen is delusional. Pre-MJ championships, all those guys on inside the NBA said the same thing about MJ that Pippen said. Now, all of a sudden Zeke contradicts it? The NBA is full of garbage anyway...

He sacrificed under someone else because he knew that someone else is wayyy better than him. Look at him when he went to Houston, he had no problem being the 3rd guy behind Hakeem and Barkley because he knows they are better than him.
