Pippen pulled a good move there. He knew Oakley is a bully with a short fuse and use it to his advantage. He stopped Oakley from getting that basket and turned it into a technical on Oakley. Bullies are like toddlers. They will throw tantrums if they don't get their way. So It's easy to get free throws off Oakley.
@PetQuackery. You sound like a DUMMY. Oak & Pipp are actually quite close FRIENDS in real life (off the court). Oak simply played a hard-nosed brand of bball. (Not 2022 SissyBall). 😳
Classic bully tactics 101.Never ever let another man grab you or choke you in like manner,then pimp slap you several times in front of your team-mates.THAT;S a big no-no!!! Me and ole Oakley would've been fighting for real!!!! If you don't fend off a bully he'll continue to humiliate you more and more,especially when he gets bored.
@@themac2008 He said no good that's a reason reason we don't hear from him like other great players that's the reason no Shoe brand What's offered to Oakley It was not good enough
And guess who wins 6 rings and becomes one of top 50 NBA players of all time?! That's all that matters when your time is up after all those fights, violence, and tough matches.
Nowadays you can’t even breathe on steph curry without getting a foul. Guys like him, booker, they would have been crying after games if they played in that era.
Nahhhh playing rough in a game of basketball doesn't make you tough. booker would do just fine in this era. yall treat playing rough in a game of basketball like its some tough shit when in reality it isn't. Besides, humans have evolved since than. Put current booker in that era and hed be stronger than 90% the athletes. Considering his explosiveness.
At the time Scottie had a reputation of being a soft player. That's why everyone tried to bully him. From Xavier McDaniel, to Charles Oackley, John Starks and Anthony Mason all of them tried to intimidate Scottie just the way the Pistons did. But Pippen from 1991 forward was mature enough to handle the heat.
Nah in 93 pip was getting bullied by the Knicks, in 91 the bad boys still pushed pip around despite the L , pip should thank Jordan for those rings every day
@@andresdelportillo9917 Its true. In 1992 Xavier McDaniel was a pain in Pippen's neck. Thanks to Pippen's blackout the Knicks almost knocked out the Bulls in the second round. It was said that it was Michael Jordan's agent that made, Xavier MacDaniel's signing with the Celtics, possible.
To be fair Pippen caused most of the fouls… Pippen essentially threw a rock and hid his hands cos he knew Oakley was going to get judged based on his attitude… Interesting hack, I never saw all that then, 👊🏾🦁🦁🇳🇬🇺🇸
I love these videos … Ignorant causal BB fans believed the Detroit BAD BOYs were thee only physical team… they forget about the Celtics before then , then the Knicks after them… the Pistons were hated cause they won… the Knicks could win it. That’s thee only difference. Thank you for this proof.
Oak had him yoked up in that rookie video. Had all that fabric underneath his throat! That’s how every sport treated the rooks back then. It was a ritual. Carrying bags, running errands, etc.
@@chrisweldon3476 MJ didn't get treated this way because he was easily the best player on the team as soon as he got there. Same for Lebron, once he got to Cleveland in 2004, it was instant respect because MJ and Lebron were already that great before stepping on the court. Everyone saw it coming already. Guys like Scottie were guys who still needed to realize their potential.
Notice How All The Teams Came For Pippen. In The Pistons Documentary They Said Pippen, Was The 🗝️ Key Note: Not Jordan. If They Could Distract Pippen Get Him Rattled, Disruptive Then Their Whole Offense Would Fall Apart. They Thought They Were Doing Something Nonetheless "ALL THOSE TEAM'S" Lost. & Pippen Usually" DUNKED" On All Those Player's Who Tried Him. Every Time In Most Of Not All Of Those Game's.
Loved the 90’s. These two even to this day, are like brothers. When it came to winning, they would kill each other . The game is totally different today. In my opinion, guys that are best friends that play against each other, kind of ease up on each other . It’s just my opinion. The game is totally different today. I am not saying they should go out there and try kill their best friend on the court, but you should want to play just as hard or harder against them then another player. I just don’t see it alot today . Jordan and Ewing were and still are best friends, but they tried to kill each other on the court. Oakley and Jordan as well . Loved the 80’s and 90’s nba .
Oakley considers Pippen a friend and vice-versa, that doesn't mean you can't play hard against each other. An entire generation sees stuff like this video and simply can't comprehend it. A different time. Coincidentally, Oakley has his own memoir coming out with a foreword by Jordan.
All these old heads talking about missing this type of NBA. Bunch of wannabe tough guys in that garbage 90s league that woulda got knocked tf out by D1 players today smh
@@ibashcommunists6847 what are you smoking? Football is #1, and i almost wanna say Baseball is over basketball too. NBA Basketball is just the most marketed sport in the world.
This title is misleading to me. I saw ONE video of Oakley bullying Pippen and that was the rookie video. Yes, the slap crossed the line but I've seen worse. After that, every single video shown is just Oakley and Pippen playing physical and pushing each other. Half the time, Pippen is smiling. Pippen didn't back down to him, in fact, in one video, literally walked in front of Oakley to take the full force of a charge. I'm not even a Pippen fan like that but I think all these videos show is that Pippen held his own against Oakley. And the rings prove it.
Exactly 💯 For Some Odd Reason People Really Has Pippen F**ked Up. Not To Mention Pippen DUNKED On Or Over Every Single One Of THOSE TEAM'S & Player's. They Hated Pippen Because He Was The Real Key To The Bulls Success. Not Jordan. Pippen Played Waaaay Harder Than Jordan. When Was The Last Time We Saw Jordan Taking A Charge Against A Bigger Player????
What do both have in common?? They hate Charles Barkley. I was a big Pippen fan growing up and his downfall has been sad. That said how can you hate Charles Barkley????
I like Oakley and appreciate him these days when I look back at those days. But as Pippen got older those guys could no longer bully him like they once did. Even in these highlights I didn't see any bullying aside from his rookie highlight.
The second to last vid(before Pip n Mase's exchange)was clearly a bad call.Mike was already great n still getting ref help. I definitely felt Oak's frustration...then again I'm a Knickfan 😢
Go watch oakley vs shaq oakley thought twice with messing with shaq. oakley usually messed with skinny guys or people he was talling than. In one of the clips with shaq hes trying to wrestle the ball out of shaq hand and shaq makes it look like oakly isnt even strong enough to to take the ball out of his hand.
A Lot of people Don't know they were Teammates before..And they were from the south.Back then all the players from the south use to hang together.Scottie was like Big O's little brother in Real Life..Look it up fyi ..
Not buying it study it slowly 🕵♂️He was a quiet agitator and assassin..remember his sneaker commercial with the cheetah😆 and O aint try that shit with Cartwright. He wanted all the Smoke..🏆
There is a big talent difference between Larry Bird and Scott Plppen. Bird came into the Celtics and torched them at practice then told them he wasnt carrying any bags at the airport. And that is how it was. Mental toughness. Pippen let Oakley bitch slap him and he smiled like a softy that he is. Mentally soft. Even later in his career when Pippen and Oakley got into it, Scott went running to the rref instead of holding his gran like a man. Soft as wet flowers.
