Scottie Pippen has lost his damn mind, as he has recently been running his mouth about Michael Jordan on social media. But if anyone should appreciate Jordan, its Scottie Pippen...
@skap_attack absolutely. It's so obvious he's doing it to try and stay relevant though. I'm not even sure he believes the ridiculous crap he's been spewing. And yea like you said he's probably peeved Mike's kid is the latest guy to tag in with his ex
@@tperfect7241 the thing is, his narratives are dangerous because it’s going to stoke the fire of the insufferable Lebron jock sniffers. It will embolden them with more preposterous narratives that I will suffer through anytime I go on any social media outlet 🤦♂️
@skap_attack oh you and me both man. I take great pleasure in exposing their lack of basketball knowledge on the daily and getting them to admit they started Watching basketball in 2016
he could've been replaced with anyone. hell, if MJ had a teammate with their own gravity, great scoring ability, anyone who could concevably command a double team... sheesh. MJ did more with less than every other all time great, it's not close.
Scottie's inability to take responsibility for his own bad decisions is singlehandedly killing his legacy. Poor romantic and financial choices have left him a bitter, broken man & lashing out at someone who made him a hall of fame player isn't going to fix that vast pit of emptiness consuming him.
Bulls fans like me were giving Scottie a pass because of his personal problems, but you can't get a pass forever, at some point you need to take responsibility for the things you say. Scottie is going cray-cray right before our eyes. Burning all the bridges and biting the hand that feeds him.
@Tom Cruz The sad part is I think Pippen really believes his statements are going to create this historical revaluation of his career, and ppl are going to suddenly place him on the same tier as Jordan if anything, he's exemplifying MJ's greatness. From the migraines, back problems, and getting bullied early in his career, there were times when Scottie fell short as a teammate.
When Jordan left the game in 94, and Pippen was the man he was throwing chairs on the court because he couldn't handle the pressure. Grant even said in an interview that Pippen didn't understand the pressure that MJ had to face every night because they were shielded from it, and Pippen failed to appreciate that. Even Phil made Kukoc the man to take winning shots because Pippen can't handle the pressure. While we can appreciate Pippen for his defensive prowess, when it comes to closing games he is no superstar, he has choked on shots, free throws etc, just like Lebron he is more of an opportunistic scorer who gets shots off having shooters and scorers take off the pressure off him.
That 93-94 team was so strong, too. They got 3 new Centers to help cover their biggest weakness (Luc being 1 of them) and of course picked of Kukoc and Kerr while still having BJ, Grant, Cartwright and a fading Paxson to pass on the torch. People try to use that year to say MJ was overrated, but they never do their research into the team acquisitions.
@@kkbaby30 What happened to Bulls in '93-'94 is the 'championship effect'. They were fresh from winning their 1st 3 peat. MJ left them as winners not losers. So the morale and confidence is high. The team also implement a team system aka the triangle offense. This is the same thing that happened to '19-'20 Toronto Raptors. Kawhi Leonard is the mvp of that team and as we all know he left the raptors after winning the championship for the clippers. The Kawhi-less but high moraled, confident, and well coached raptors won 50+ games that season and like the bulls in '94, made it to the second round and lost in game 7. The loss of MJ for the Bulls and Kawhi for the raptors became visible the season after, when the bulls and the raptors became mediocre teams. Alot of people dont realize this because it is VERY RARE for a superstar to retire or leave the team after winning a championship. Normally u retire if father time already caught up and u cant perform at high level anymore. Or u leave the team bec you were beaten badly in the playoffs or finals and u want to start over with a new team.
I remember the "flu game" at the start MJ tried to let Pip lead but he couldn't so Mike took matters into his own hands as usual..Scottie was there to help MJ off the court at least
Bro really went two faced on MJ for his wife doing him dirty. Mj literally does nothing nut praise Pippen and says they don't get those 6 without him. Who else needs to validate you other than the dude who was your best teammate? Pippen going out sad
Yeah I don't know why Pippen was so salty about the documentary. Apart from the Kukoc controversy and Pippen's contract dispute, MJ was very positive about Pippen the other 98% of the time. I believe the true reason is his ex-wife dating MJ's son. That's the root of all this but Pippen doesn't want to admit that publicly.
@@One.Zero.One101 The docu was negative about MJ too, as I remember it from the 3 times I have seen it. Except Pippen, no one else feels that he was short-changed.

And what were some of Jordan's first words at his HOF induction speech? "In all those clips, you just didn't see me. You saw Scottie Pippen"... What else does Scottie want???
@@mpound97 you know as a Chicagoan who grew up in the midst of that dynasty, Pip disappointed me. I have no worries about hurting MJs legacy cause it won't. I'm just concerned Pip's legacy is getting destroyed. But I asked my friends and they give Pip a pass due to a lapse in mental judgement.
Pippen is now "full of crap" ! He was good player and that is it! Top 7 SF of all time probably! Is he important for Bulls rings? Yes! But he is not reason , MJ was reason why they won 6 rings! Btw, Horry has 7 rings!
I WISH someone would step up in an interview with Pippen and ask him about his hall of fame acceptance speech, accompanied by Mike on stage, thanking him for the great years together and his tutelage…that was 2010…so MJ turned into a horrible player 25 years after the Last Dance season…I’d love to hear Pip‘s rebuttal…🤦🏻♂️what a 🤡
@@chitownkidd33 right, he needs to have more respect for Jordan...he was the leader of the bulls dynasty and he led them well...he led them to 6 titles.
@@chitownkidd33 I think Shaquille O’Neal had a lot more to do with it, but you go ahead and give Kobe Bryant all the credit who wasn’t even the best player on that team
Pippin was always a weak mind dude wanted to be the man so bad but failed at every opportunity. He wanted to be MJ and I think he has some animosity towards MJ. I honestly always heard MJ say good things about Scottie but the personal stuff in Pippin's life has made him despise MJ and that's sad considering they should be friends for life after all they accomplished together.
Honestly I peg this all to jealousy by Pippen. He really, truly believes he doesn’t get enough shine. When I’m reality I honestly think he gets too much. People talk about Jordan and pippen as a duo the same way magic and Kareem or Kobe and Shaq are discussed. When in actuality, it’s not even close. All four of those players mentioned are SUBSTANTIALLY individually superior to pippen. Yet he’s included in “the best duo of all time” commentary all because of Jordan.
@@skap_attack Facts. Pippen is Very Overrated. He wasn’t even an All-Star in 2 of those 6 Championships Years AND He basically looked like a Above Average Role Player for Most of his Career. Jordan was Dropping 30 PPG without Pippen and playing Elite Defense. What did Pippen do after Jordan left? He got Cooked All the Time Especially by Kobe Bryant. Scottie is just Salty about the Last Dance Film and his Ex was going out with Jordan’s Son. It’s all igniting Hatred towards Jordan.
@@YoungblazinKTN 100% spot on here. Like pippen made the all star team 7 times out of 17 years 😂. And he was first team all nba only 3 times out of 17. Yet he thinks he was the primary factor in the bulls becoming winners 😂. Like I said, I see why Lebron fans like this guy so much. Both of them are delusional as hell.
@@krisxchirbas9503 Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Shaq, Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, David Robinson, and even Chuck are all statistically better players
Jordan almost averaged a triple-double in 88-89 when Doug Collins put him at the point. Dean Smith even said prior that Jordan should play the point. And let’t forget his field goal percentage, which was almost 50%.
And 88% free throw. Scottie claims MJ took bad shots or rarely pass the ball when he was rookie. Honestly, how can he say things like that, with a straight face? Viagra might help him too!
Stephen A. years back would tell a story where the Bulls were getting ready for a game and before they hit the floor, they're in a group huddle or something and a player says "Alright guys bring your 'A' game". Jordan says "'A' game?! Just bring a game!"...😂😂😂😂😂
I have always been baffled by the accolades Pippen has received. Top 50 all-time? Seriously? I can probably name 100 guys just of the top of my head who were better players AND teammates than Pippen. Without MJ, Pippen would be just another ex-NBA player nobody remembers.
@@a1kid not top 100 is a bit of stretch probably. Tho I do agree he’s likely closer to 100 than 50. Pippen has always been pretty outrageously overrated imo. I never considered him a top 10 player in his time. How can he be a top 50 player in all time if he was never a top 10 just in his timespan? It never added up to me.
Scottie pippen was a great role player nothing else there's never a time that scottie pippen carried Jordan to a victory in the playoffs even during mjs flu game pippen knew that mj wasn't feeling well yet he couldn't even step up to give mj a break instead mj had to score 38 points to will the bulls to the victory
@@shake6321 Pippen was no superstar that's the point yea he did other things but mj did them as well and averaged almost double of what pippen did in hff e finals and during the regular season that's the difference even though pippen was the bbn primary ball handler mj still averaged the same amount of assists as pippen did even though pippen was taller mj averaged the same amount of rebounding as pippen did mj and pippen even averaged the same amount of steals per game and blocks per game all of this mj did while scoring way more and shooting better from the field like i said pippen was a good role player hes not the main reason why mj won 6 championships mj is pippen averaged 15 ppg in the 98 finals mj 33 mjs other four starters including pippens 15 ppg in the 98 finals jordan out scored his while starting lineup they averaged 30 he averaged 33 ppg pippen averaged 5 Rodman 5 Ron Harper 5 longley 5 thats a combined 30 points that's why mj is the Goat what his team couldn't provide he did unlike lebron his teammates produced he still loses and gets swept and a gentleman's sweep
If Michael really wanted to paint Scottie Pippen in a bad light, he would have shown how Pippen quit on the Bulls in the 1994/95 season and demanded to be traded before and led the Bulls to a 34-31 record before Jordan had to come back and resue the Bulls And nothing in the Last Dance was wrong either. Pippen did quit on his team in 94 during Game 3 of the ECSF, he did take a long contract even though Jerry Krausse advised him to wait.
If he really wanted to paint Scottie in a bad light, there are so many ways to do it. He could've pointed out he scored montrous numbers in Scottie's first 3 seaons while Scottie was a role player and going deep in the playoffs, hence destroying the "can't win without Pippen narrative". He could also have debunked the "Scottie defended Magic" narrative in 91. He could have pointed out he almost doubled Pippen's points in the finals on much better efficiency. Finally, he could've reminded people that Scottie's very unclutch. His infamous 2 point game 7 vs Pistons, building a new house with his bricks in 96 finals and straight up disappeared in game 5 & 6 in the 98 finals. Not to mention his offensive game was so inconsistent, he could give you 30 one night and then 8 points in the next. But Jordan didn't do any of that, because that man is his brother. Too bad the feelings aren't mutual
Yes, in the last dance Jordan exposed the dark side of Pippen, but Jordan always said good things about him : there is no Jordan without Pippen when Pippen has never been as good as Jordan. Even when he was the man in Bulls after Jordan's first retirement he never such a high level of game like Jordan did. Pippen is really looks like an ungrateful, spoiled kid now
He gave him more credit than he deserved actually. BC yes, Jordan would have won MANY titles with any decent player that took up the salary Scottie did, who was paid more than he should have been. In many years, he was paid more than MJ. If you replace Scotties salary on the team with anyone else, he would still win.
I'm a Chicago native and Scottie is crazy. I'm so tired of the narrative MJ did not win without Scottie. Well Scottie also played with Houston and Portland. Scottie did not win without MJ. And my last point what star won alone I can't think of any that have.
I can think of one off the top.. Rick Barry pretty much won by himself in '75...there wasn't any other elite player on that squad yet they beat an elite Bullets team in the Finals. Jamaal Wilkes was there but he was a rookie. Not to mention the teams they beat to even get to the Finals.
That night that Pippen sat out the play because it was drawn for Kukoc, I was there. I was working there, and I was positioned right behind the goal that Kukoc made the game winning shots on. That was such a fun moment when he hit the shot, but then it turned sour because of all the reporting on Scottie's actions. He took a huge hit to his credibility and lost a lot of good will he has built up that season.
Your sarcasm was sad but funny. I started watching nba in 91’ and had been MJ and that Bulls team fans ever. Loved Pippen. Yes, he’s definitely severely underpaid, but man, he’s overrated.
Pippen is a great player. But even factoring in his ELITE defensive contributions, we’re talking about a career 16, 6 and 5 player. I just don’t see how this guy feasibly has warranted to ability to run his mouth on Jordan. Like, pippen wins zero titles without Jordan. Realistically there were MANY other players Jordan could have won with. He just needed a single viable all star and he was going to go OFF. Pippen just happened to be the right guy in the right place at that draft.
@@skap_attack MJ made Pippen. I’d say that without reservation. Pippen was definitely replaceable and the Bulls could have won even more titles. MJ is irreplaceable.
Scottie was soft those earlier years, the pistons would bully him knock him to the ground and he didn't want to get up, mj was the one going at them even after those hard fouls, mj taught Scottie and the rest of team not to be intimidated
Nah this is nonsense. Jordan complained to the league about the pistons. He quit and whined and got rewarded by the league who shortened the 3 pt line and started calling more fts for Jordan. Jordan is of course top 2 ever but he never even had a winning record without pippen. Once pippen became more skilled and dominant, only then did the bulls win anything.
@@krisxchirbas9503 first off the 3pt line had nothing to do with mj, that's the league doing so they could higher scoring games, and if ppl were clothes lining you every chance they get wouldn't you complain? That's not in the spirit of the game! You got the last part right tho, as soon pip got developed with the help of mj they had second threat
This. A lot of people don't realize that yes, Jordan could be a hard rider and difficult as a teammate because he wanted to win do bad, but Jordan literally COACHED Pippen on how to play tough and be tough. Pippen might not have needed that in today's soft game, but back then he wouldn't have sniffed a championship nor a top 50 player of all time recognition if not for Jordan teaching him how. He benefited from MJ doing the exact opposite of what he now claims Jordan was.

Criminally underrated. His numbers were modest because he had a lesser role in the offense. But while Pippen often had bad shooting nights, Horace usually did his job well and provided inside presence
Man. You are like the Kendrick Lamar of the film industry. Your movie "The Last Choke" touched me deeply and your masterpiece "Scottie Pippen is trash" was almost like an out of body experience. The last time i witnessed similar greatness, was 1998 when i was watching the last 42 seconds of that Finals game live. Impressive Stuff

I swear LeBron fans would be LOSING their minds with what Scottie contributed but for Lebron. He would still need more help as always. If these superstars get devalued so much on leBrons teams, imagine what they'd do to Scottie.
@@godsfavoritt771 AD plays elite defense and rebounding, gets you 40 one night and then gets slaughtered if he only has 17 the next.

Did he tho? The 2 seasons the bulls didnt win with pippen they were robbed on a series losing call against the knicks and Jordan choked the series away against the magic with a series losing turnover. Without pippen, the most win Jordan got in a regular season was 38. Pippen meanwhile, led the bulls to 55 wins. But I guess that doesn't fit the narrative.
@@krisxchirbas9503 actually you're wrong about the most wins Jordan got. The Bulls were 40-42 in the 1986-87 season before Pippen was on the team. They lost in the first round to the #1 seed Celtics, who happened to be the returning 1985-86 champions and who also went the 1986-87 championship match only to lose to the Lakers. As for Pippen's 55 win season, well that was with the returning 1992-93 champs wasn't it? The following year the Bulls were 23-25 under Pippen. When Jordan returned they went 24-10.
@@a.k.7840 23-25 isn't too bad they wouldve improved. I do remember Jordan letting down pippen by choking against the magic with a series losing turnover. And are you telling me that Jordan never even went above 500 without pippen? Is this your goat?
If it wasn't for the legendary Stacey King coming off the bench, we would have never heard of Jordan OR Pippen. Dude practically carried that team's first 3-peat.
What people forget is that before Phil Jackson called the final shot for Kukoc...Pippen had shot 3 bad bricks before that final shot!! Phil had seen enough!!
All I keep thinking of is back to Jordan's Hall of Fame induction speech, nothing but lavish praise for his teammate. ........And now, its come to this. It's a God damn shame.

@@moottorisorsa3099 in a weaker league with a different rule the 3 second rule allows lebron to average more because he doesn't have to worry about the center and power forward and small forward packing the paint like mj did this makes it easier to score being that the center can't guard the hoop to prevent lebron from coming inside as he can't shoot mj at 39 mainly took the midrange jump shot where as lebron either dunks or lays it up that rule enables lebron to be able to score at 38 by bullying his way to the rim he's not scoring due to skill like mj did hes scoring due to an advantage that hes using which is his size that's the difference of why lebron is averaging 10 more ppg than mj did at the same age its called different rules

It's quite clear to me that Scottie is on drugs. I don't mean that as 'funny' comment. I think he's seriously got a drug problem and he's just talking nonsense at this point. It's sad. I think MJ knows it and that's why MJ hasn't responded in any kind of way.
Scottie wouldn't be a hof without Jordan. Jordan made him a house whole name. The reason anyone is even paying attention to him now is because of being mj teammates. We've seen what pippen is without Jordan. Bitter.🤔😂😂
I forgot how the convo went exactly but I remembered Charles Barkley being asked a question about pippen on the rockets and why it didn’t work. He responded with "We didn't know Scottie wasn't going to bring Michael Jordan with him." Lol
Thank you for making this video and narrating what’s needed to be heard about MJ and Scottie ( The Savior) so much hatered in Sottie’s heart and he lets his ego ruined everything!

Jealousy, mixed with substance abuse, mixed with mental issues and saltiness over MJ’s kid tapping his ex results in a bad combination of hate from Scottie. Hate to see it tho.

I supported the bulls as a kid in the 90's, and i have to say pippen was my least fav player, his shooting used to frustrate the shit out of me, I also remember he had a shooting contest against a little kid and he lost
One could argue that Pippen only developed into the player he became BECAUSE he practiced and played with Jordan. I’m sure he learned a lot from the goat.
Just to mention that in his second season, the Bulls wanted Jordan to just sit out the last part of the season, out of fear of a relapse of the injury. Jordan insisted to play, but had to accept limited minutes. He still carried them to the last spot for the playoffs. He faced the 86 Celtics, a top 3 team of all time, and scored 63 in one of the games, a record that still stands today.
So pathetic..... AND DON'T FORGET that draft (1987) that brought Scottie Pippen in with the number 5 pick ALSO BROUGHT IN Horace Grant with the #10 pick, so Jerry Krause & his scouting team found two absolute jewels that year.
@Floyd Banks. The crazy part is the pecking order was Jordan, Pippen, Grant. Jordan was the King, but Pip was the floor General of everyone else on that team not named Jordan. But I never hear Pippen praising Horace Grant for being a solid number three on that team the way Jordan praises Pippen for being a solid number two. I personally valued Horace Grant over Pippen. Who is the better leader?
@@lamontewilliams203 I won't disrespect the fact that while Mike was away for that full season plus 3/4 of the next season Scottie put up MVP type numbers, so I think the pecking order you mentioned is correct.
Funny enough that Horace Grant was actually their best rookie that year. But no one care about that because Jordan did win without Horace Grant on his team (96-98)
Also, Horace DID get a ring with the Lakers & although they lost to in The Finals, he was on that young Orlando Magic team with Shaq & Penny. He's had playoff success apart from MJ.
@@stanleykwan7759 Their rookie numbers are practically identical, BUT at least Horace got a ring with the Lakers & another Finals appearance with the Magic. What's Scottie's greatest accomplishment away from MJ????
The fact Scottie made the Top 50 team is insane. Dude was a good player paired next to the BEST PLAYER EVER. Dude would never of even made a finals as lead dog if his teammate wasnt MJ. You give MJ any other Allstar level wing from the era and I promise you titles are still in Chicago.
Born in 83... scottie was the player i looked up to most & kinda played like him as a kid. Obviously, mj was still my fav & the best but i didn't emulate mj on the court, i played more like scottie- quiet, scrappy, intense defense etc. After watching last dance & hearring scottie double down on his refusal to go into the game cause kukoc was given the last shot disturbed me. I heard scottie once say lebron was better than mj all around- that also disturbed me. I'll be honest- after hearing him call mj horrible before pip arrived is bananas. I dont recall the 80s, my mj memories begin vs phx suns in finals. After mj first retirement, i specifically remember asking my pops is mj coming back, he said slim chance, & i absolutely remember being overjoyed when mj returned & i remember thinking yes! my pops was wrong! With all that said- i didn't watch the bulls during mj's retirement. I didnt see it live when pip refused to enter the game... so to see it in the last dance & hear pip's excuse was heartbreaking cause i could not believe for all those years as a kid i looked up to a mitchbade person, cause as an adult now i think scottie is a true mitch. He called phil racists fir choosing kukoc over pip for last shot. Idk bout u but i remember kukoc being a tall ass, deep 3 hitter, a better shooter than pip- so once again pip's comments bothered me, phil is no racists. I understand pip is going thru it personally, but gd man he is losing supporters & fans like me. I got mad jordan shoes, got one pair of pip's uptempo kicks- but i don't want any more scottie apparel. Phil is racists- mj was horrible-- im done with scottie. I hope mj DOES NOT join the party & bash scottie. Hope mj takes the high road & maybe go visit scottie & talk face to face (televised reuinion would be tv gold) & get out all the frustrations. Scottie is losing fans & maybe his place in nba history. In conclusion- wtf did scottie do without mj? Nada. Scottie is not a clutch shooter/scorer/player- that was mj. SCOTTIE IS LEBRON IF LEBRON HAD MJ!
Awesome video! To the 1985 Rookie of the Year award and the scoring title of 1987, I would add MJ's accomplishments before he got to the NBA. These are NCAA champion in 1982, gold medal in the Panamerican Games in 1983, gold medal in the Olympic Games in 1984, and national college player of the year award in 1984 (and 1983 from Sporting News). Michael was a winner and an international basketball star already as a college player, and that should be remembered too. On the other hand, 7.9 ppg Pippen did not even make the all-rookie team, and before that, he was a nobody who didn't even play in the NCAA but in the minor college league NAIA. PS. There is also a small error in the video: Pippen became All-Star in the 1989-1990 season, his third, not in 1988-89 as in the video. In 1988 the Bulls lost to the Pistons in 5 in the ECSF, in 1989 in 6 in the ECF, and in 1990 in 7, when Pippen had the migraine and 1-10 fg.
that’s as false as scottie saying michael was a horrible player. they both needed each other i grew up watching all of this happen. it’s classic batman and robin they would never succeed without each other
Pippen is nowhere near a top 50. He's only in the Hall of Fame because of Jordan. I call pippen a great complimentary player to one of the game's greatest player.
I remember when MJ was playing in the 80's and the belief was that he might go down as the greatest player to never win a championship because his teams were always garbage and they still were during the championship years. He had role players around him and Scottie seemed to be riding his coat tails and getting accolades cuz of his proximity to Jordan
MJ quote, "I didn't win without Scottie Pippen, and that's why I consider him my best teammate of all time, Jordan went on to say. "Whenever they speak Michael Jordan, they should speak Scottie Pippen evidently ran with that quote when saying MJ was a "horrible player" before he joined the Bulls. Pure bitterness! Owner Jerry Reinsdorf and general manager Jerry Krause refused to renegotiate Pippen's deal, instead taking advantage of his minuscule cap number to put championship rosters around Pippen and Michael Jordan. Pippen's frustrations colored his entire tenure with the team through his eventual departure in a 1999 sign-and-trade with the Houston Rockets. So how did the Bulls manage to underpay Pippen for so long? The answer is depressingly simple. None of the modern rules that protect both owners and players from bad contracts existed in 1991. The modern cap is an extremely complex mechanism. The original cap was not. The league set a number based on its basketball-related income. Teams were not allowed to exceed that number unless they did so to re-sign their own players. Essentially, those were the only guidelines governing contracts at the time. Pippen is taking his anger and frustrations out on Michael and his problems are much greater than MJ's. Scottie needs to focus on what he can do differently as opposed to blaming others.
I’m a firm believer that Pippen in Seattle, where he was drafted, would have been a sometimes All Star. He would have been a slightly better Brad Sellars. MJ’s greatest achievement was pulling Pippen to the HoF.
I agree with this. Scottie is massively overrated in a historical context in my opinion. That’s why he should shut his mouth and not bite the hand that fed him.
Pippen has a problem thats it. He was also an amazing player, nothing but respect for him, but saying that the greatest ever was horrible is sad to say. To bad people can hate each other an accomplished so much together.
How come the smartest RU-vidrs and smartest vids have less metrics than the all the clowns out there. This was fantastic. The script, the footage, the arguments were all '30-for-30' good. I'd say apply to ESPN, but they don't deserve. Keep doing what you're doing, though. This was awesome! And, thank you so much for keeping it clean so I could play it around and for my kids!
Once again you put a smile on my face and made me laugh! Thank you for the QUALITY of these video's. I know you have put alot of work in them. We appreciate it and it shows!! #JORDAN #GOAT
Jordan made it threw the piston he needed you to show up had a headache you wasn't to sharp when you came in the league you have to thank phi jackson for his coaching
That 1st 3peat team wasn't as talented as the Blazers or Phoenix when they matched up. Even the second 3peat was a rockstar team only because of Rodman but again, those guys would disappear too and leave Jordan with the bag...
I’m sorry but Scottie pippen is OVERRATED. I’ve never denigrated him in anyway my entire life. But this trash ball rolling around calling Jordan horrible and slurping up to Lebron? Nah. Gotta call him for what he is now at this point.
The greatest thing to ever happen for scottie's legacy is that he never got traded for shawn kemp in 1998 Bulls still would have won in 1998 considering scottie was playing like he was on his death bed in the finals The stupid narrative about MJ never winning without scottie would be dead and Scottie would rightfully be known as the guy who was lucky to have MJ/Phil/Bulls to toughen him up
I honestly don’t understand how that absurd narrative even got started in the first place. Obviously it was some contingent of Lebron jock sniffers trying to belittle and discredit Jordan.
@@skap_attackim glad your channel exists to call out the jockstrap sniffing that be happening Ive only seen you and 2 other people on RU-vid call this out, fcking ridiculous, people need to get off they knees
@@xyz-tn7tr Lolol 😂 couldn’t agree more. Here’s the thing, I literally started the channel because I was a disgruntled fan of 25+ years totally fed up with the medias bs coverage and lies. It took me a while to learn what I was doing with audio recording, visual editing, etc. and of course I would love the channel to do well. I want it to gain popularity and gain a traction of followers. But nothing I do and no video I ever make will be “clickbait” or me just going after views. Every video I make, I make because I believe in the message and it’s something I want to say. With that said, I’m glad you enjoy the content, and THANK YOU for watching. I appreciate you 🙏.
Instead being grateful for winning championships and playing with the goat, this dude trashed everything including his legacy. We saw how good he was. With MJ, he won 6 rings. Without him, the same team became just a playoff team, not even remotely a contender. MJ truly made Pippen better and gave him 6 rings. Without him nobody would actually remember him now.
Michael Jordan made 2x more money than Scottie Pippen, he was jealous about that, he should of never took that lowball contract, he didn’t show up when it counted, in the 1990 East Finals, Game 7, he complained about a headache before the game, and that affected the team and the Bulls lost to the Pistons, of course the 1998 NBA Finals, he complained about back pain, and Michael had to save the game. Scottie couldn’t win without MJ, 1994, they lost to the Knicks 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 when he was with the Rockets and Trail Blazers, he lost to the Kobe/Shaq Lakers, and in 2003 almost defeated the Mavericks after trailing 0-3 series but lost In Game 7.
