I will never forget watching Scottie Pippen dunk over Patrick Ewing in the 94 playoffs. Thanks for all those great memories in the 90s. A time when the NBA reigned supreme. It's sad that you have fallen out with Michael Jordan, but life is always complicated. Great podcast. 🇬🇧

As a New Yorker and Knicks fan, yes, I loved that dunk, on my Knicks and Ewing. I call it, " the slam you to the floor dunk."

Ewing is a HOF Center. He was always a better player than Pippen. Not even in the same conversation. Knicks had a great team in 1992, and should have beaten the Bulls that year. I had Suns/Knicks in the Finals that year. Was shocked that the Knicks blew it.

I don't want to write 'defensive GOAT' since it's too hard to compare positions, but I have never seen a better defender than Pippen, both on-ball and team defense. That same vision and awareness that made him a great team-defender also made him an incredible passer.

Dennis Johnson from the Bird era Celtics had 9 straight all defensive selections second only to Kobe. Not to mention the biggest Defensive Goat as well as the GOAT of all time Bill Russell who's defensive win shares 138.00 stat is way over the player in second place and over anyone in the sport's history.

Jordan literally said the only way he would play on Dream Team was if IT was not on the team. There was a documentary about 20 years ago about this very topic. The NBA wanted Magic, Bird and Jordan on the same team. Jordan didn't want to play and his one stipulation was IT being left off

If the Pistons & Isaiah didn't disrespect the Bulls & MJ after they beat them in 91, walking out before the game was even over and not shaking hands. If the Pistons stayed when the game was over and congratulated the Bulls for finally beating them i would guarantee Isaiah would've been on the Dream Team. With Chuck Daly being the coach of the Dream Team and Isaiah wasn't chosen it would mean the decision to walk out after the game was the players which is on Isaiah and the veterans.

For those making a big controversy out of Isaiah being "snubbed" from the Dream Team. You need to step up and say who should have been off the team to make room for Isaiah. I am old enough to remember 92' well. While it was notable at the time that Isaiah didn't make the team, I don't recall anyone making a big deal out of it at the time. Some great player has to be the odd man out and it just happened to be Isaiah. Magic and Bird were past their prime but nobody could seriously have kept them off. I don't know why there had to one college player on the roster, but there was so you had to have Laettner. Everyone else was in right in their prime. Stockton is the obvious one for Isaiah to have replaced on the roster. But Stockton was a truly great player at the time and very complimentary to the rest of the team. It was certainly no controversy to have Stockton on the team.

[@Steve-eh4db]

Stockton went on to lead the league in assists, 9 years in a row. Shot 51% for his career, 19 year avg.. Isiah's BEST shooting year was 48.8%. Quality, not quantity. Modesty vs Flash.

PBD just put Isiah, in MJ's shoes.

[@juscamrs7207]

@ scottie caught him insinuating things about Stern about IT’s not selected in the dream team on top of the many times he would check wiki for stats. as the host it’s basic to come prepared

[@honeymustardtiger]

PBD interviews scottie pippen to ask him questions about michael jordan... why not just interview michael jordan?

[@Steve-eh4db]

He interviews him, but cuts him off every single time, three sentences into every answer. Does the dude on TMZ get to interview the Pope? PBD, has to learn some NBA history more, before he can even ask questions of people who have basketball blood in their veins. Simply said, if you were a casual NBA fan, back in the day, a simple Wiki lookup is not going to paint the entire picture of what each player was. PBD, thought that Isiah averaged 28-30 ppg, smh, absolutely clueless. "Rob, can you put up Isiah Thomas stats." Delusional novice. Isiah was way past his prime and didn't mean to the NBA game what Bird & Magic did for the NBA. Isiah wasn't even the leading scorer on the Pistons for most the years he was on the Pistons. Tripuka, Dantly, Dumars.

Just watch the eastern conference All Star team back in the day and tell me Thomas and Jordan couldn't of played together on the Dream Team. For two men having such rivalry watching Thomas' pin point passing as point guard to a prime scorer Jordan it's a shame we didn't see them create magic in Barcelona.

Look, we all know Scottie was integral to the success of the Bulls. And even MJ has made that very clear time and time again. We love Scottie. Just not when he went bonehead after the Last Dance. That sht just didn't make any sense. Seems like he's put much of that behind him now which is great.

[@mifnp8887]

You missed the clip where he grilled Pippen about MJ. It was like watching a slow moving car crash. It was awful!

[@Steve-eh4db]

Too bad he has no clue on anything NBA. A casual talking NBA with Scottie Pippen. He actually thought Isiah was a 30-8-8 guy. Isiah highest scoring year was 22.9. Highest rebounding year, 3. Scottie set him straight, after making this face, that PBD was clueless, "Isiah was more of a 20 ppg, 10 assist guy. "Rob, put up Isiah's stats." "I must of mixed up Isiah & Larry Bird." In essence saying I mixed up Trump's stances with Biden's stances. If you know your S#$%, you can't mix the two up. So embarrassing. Cringe worthy.

[@DarrellC.]

@ I saw it. Not sure how it was bad. I liked it. Can’t talk about Robin without discussing Batman.

[@DarrellC.]

@@Steve-eh4db if you watched the full interview he clearly knows his stuff on the NBA. On the clip you’re talking about he even mentioned he may be confusing Isaiah with someone else.

Up to 1992 Olympics Pippen only made All Star twice (one of those occasions when he replaced Bird - injured). Stockton was an all star 4 times already. Mullin was the sharp shooter to be replacing Bird as everyone knew he was done.

Pippen's voice would suit a character in a fantasy movie well.

[@johnobrien1759]

I’ve been saying this since day one. Dominique Wilkins was the true snub, not Isaiah Isaiah Thomas.. People forget how amazing that man was, and Isaiah was on the down slide by 92. 91 is right when I really started watching basketball so I could remember this like it was yesterday. I was just a young boy from Chicago who loved the Bulls and my first memory was us beating the Lakers and not understanding why everyone was so excited over winning one little game. I didn’t know that that was the NBA finals.

[@NakedTruth-or-WellDressedLie]

Dominique was hurt that year and Pippen took his spot. Pippen acting like he don't remember. Wilkins had a ACL or Achilles injury in 1991/92...Hint he was voted to All Star Team in 1992, but didn't play (Magic Johnson's Last ASG)

[@TheEsquireOfSportsFSU]

Checketts and Grunfeld did some mind-boggling things in the 90s. That's not even the most heinous, if you can believe that... But X only had a couple of good years left in him. They dragged it out, hoping to give him whatever was left cap-wise while they swung and missed on Harvey Grant and a couple others. They knew Smith's knees were already shot before they traded for him and still pulled the trigger.

[@TheEsquireOfSportsFSU]
