Man it’s hard to believe 5 years ago he was averaging 36.1 ppg and now he’s the 3rd option on a team. At the time, it felt like he was averaging 35 ppg every season and dropping 40 every other game, it really did. Crazy how fast 5 years goes but it’s also crazy how slow 5 years goes at the same time

Pippen did make some good points. I don't understand why teams continue to play him on his right side leaving his left hand open for a drive? Are they more worried about the step back 3 right than the left hand drive?

I don't think the Pippen thing will even matter. People "claim" the 76ers shut him down with Pippen's suggestions, but he scored 37 in about 3 quarters. Had the game not been out of hand and he actually played the 4th, he would have scored 40 plus. The dude is unstoppable right now.
