He was violent. He was probably as good a finisher as we've seen. He didn't have MJ's hangtime, but he was much longer. The original Lebron when it comes to finishing.
1992 ecsf series with one of the greatest NBA series of all time is the damn shame that it's been copyrighted off RU-vid.... Honestly these games should be fair use ... As far as I'm concerned it's American history.
Scottie was such a freak athlete and he is so long. Like MJ, he also has massive hands. Plus, Pippen has a monstrous 7-4 wingspan. To give that context, Giannis A. has a 7-3 wingspan and he's about 3-4 inches taller than Pippen. My father and I loved watching Pippen. Every time I see him, I remember my dad.
My son Kelly LOVED Pippen. Mostly everyone else was looking at Jordan. Today is his birthday and I sent him THIS among other things! Happy Birthday son! ❤
Would love to see more of his plays and crazy shots as well as defensive moves. Pippen was pure skill. These dunks were good you could do three or four videos one for each of the aforementioned!
It basically showed Pippens biggest strength as an offensive player. His fast break plays and going hard to the basket for a dunk! Nothing fancy but effective, a lot like Lebron in todays game but without the defensive resistance that Pippen faced.
It's definitely easier going to the rim today. Not only are there no longer any true big men - the defensive 3 seconds rule basically makes it impossible for shot blockers to stay near the rim.
Pippen might have been the most complete player who ever played the game. Every coach marvelled at his ability to give a team exactly what they needed. Points, assists, defensive stops, blocks, steals, rebounds. Looking down the other team's best offense player, covering for defensive lapses of team-mates, providing leadership. Take a player like Lebron or Kobe. Sure, better scorer, even better scorer and passer in case of Lebron, but the whole package?
He was a freak of nature they both with Jordan need to be friends again nothing would be the same without both of them, let's not forget the rest players of the dreamteam!
Scottie Pippen was a very importat player on the Bulls, defensibly and offensive player he did some things for the team sacrifive his body, on the offensive fouls.... He is a player that we never going to forget I like the way he play all the time... He is a MVP
Everyone is talking about Scottie being so great but ya'll are so blind. The dude didn't have a jump shot. All he did was dunk. How dare Salley say he was more skilled than MJ.
Wow...looking at these highlights reminds me of how consistent skilled & strong Scottie. Also reminds me of the impact he had on this team. Jordan wouldn't have done it without these guys. He also makes his son look so tiny😂🤭
that's what was crazy about the bulls. when Jordan didn't play well, Pipen took over the game. we all remember when jordan didn't put one in and he stayed on defense and passed the ball. Pipen was getting all the points.
And it happenned more often than people think (not Jordan having a bad game, but Pippen playing better than Jordan). Pippen didnt need to be the top scorer to be the best player in any given game.
Scottie fue la calve del exito de jordan x el ganaron muchos juegos y x el fueron campeones que no le dan crédito es otra cosa pero sin el nada fuese Sido lo que fue
Pippen gets his credit. Pippen was the 2nd most important player of the Bulls dynasty. But he wasn't irreplaceable and it's ridiculous to think Jordan wouldn't have won with the other elite players and teams in the league.
I feel bad for centers. It is essentially their job to get posterized by people. People like Olajuwon, Ewing, Robinson and Shaq were the last line of defense. Often not getting that crucial block but always going after it to be immortalized on a poster.
La belle époque...Aujourd'hui, tout est aseptisé, fade et sans saveur...Où sont passés les matches viriles ou ça bastonnait ? Triste période de gonzesses...
That depends on your definition. I think Scottie's influence goes under stated and underacknowledged too. I also know he was the element, the conduit to communicate Michael to the rest of the team. But I'm not so sure about better. Scottie, Bigshot and Julius are easily my favorites. Grant and Penny are 2nd because they were injured. But MJ, Kareem, Larry and LeBron are still my bests (I didn't know where to place Magic and Wilt).
Boricua Hispanic Indian n black Iam... Pippen have all the skills of each players of the dream team, play like Jordan dunk n play like John Stockton stealing the ball , blocking the ball like Patrick Ewing, he do it all he is Mr all round players. Pippen lost he son n he ex wife acting like a little girl n the last dance was a bad idea , Pippen rodman Jordan n tony kukos was the super team 72 win. 4 players that is in the hall of Fame. Tony say thank to Jordan n Scottie Pippen to kick his ass in Barcelona 1992. Pippen shot down 5 players in Barcelona magic Johnson say that. Kobe Bryant say Pippen was a genius player. N Gilbert arenas say Pippen was a MVP in the dream team. So Pippen was a great players just like Jordan Larry bird n Patrick Ewing Karl Malone, Pippen is Mr all round players, one of the 50 great players in history. They need to make a movie about Pippen Mr all round players all his skills, pill Jackson the coach say Pippen he got all the tools . The title Mr all round players the movie , best defense players of every year say tony kukos. Pippen was a part of those 6 champion ring n gold metal of the dream team. God bless.
Nice video, but he was a lot more than just a powerful dunker. Honestly, most of his dunks weren't really creative, they were powerful but quite straight. He did a lot of dunks over defenders, thanks to his ability to jump very high, having very big hands and being quite strong, despite his lean frame. But he was first and foremost a first-rate defender, a great passer (the only forward in the top 20 in assists, if I remember correctly) a great, unselfish team player (desperately needed in Jordan's team) and he also improved his mid-range and long-range shots greatly in the second half of his career. People keep raving about LeBron, and he's indeed great, but I'd rank Pippen a lot higher than him.
I think if MJ is the best player ever, it is because of the team and specially Pippen, I thought that the Jordan and Pippen was one name, always we heard Scottie Pippen MJ😎🇲🇦
