Anyone who thinks Pippen is anywhere near Michael Jordan doesn't know what the fuck they're talking about. Scottie was a slightly better version of Shawn Marion. Pip was a great defender, good rebounder, good passer but his offensive game was was average. He really couldn't create his own shot.
@rockyrack2 now, i think your right about him not being close to Jordan but your really underestimating his talents with your comment...... and he could create his own shot, watch clips of the 1994 season.... he was a lot better than shawn marion, and quite possibly the games greatest utility man alongside magic johnson
I don't think most people realize thanks to nike, that Scottie is just as good mj. He had the talent, and was pushed by the best ever every day in practice. He's my all-time fav. Mike is very cool... but he's just too promoted for me. He 's promoted as a GOD and not a basketball player...
Michael Jordan & Scottie Pippen the Dynamic Duo of the NBA. Without Pippen or a player of the quality of Pippen to play with, Jordan doesn't win a championship & the Bulls wouldn't of been the team of the 90's. Scottie Pippen was complete great player & 1 of the top 3-5 players of his era with the Bulls. He was the QB of the Bulls Offense as a great Point Forward & 1 of the Top 3 defensive players of his era who could cover 3-4 positions if not the best & a excellent rebounder as a swingman.
I don't know whether he was underrrated. Everyone appreciates him as one of the best players ever. If he had won that 7th title in Portland it would have added something. But he was happy to be second banana to Jordan.
Michael would have never won all those championships without scotty. may have won one maybe 2. Just like how all the haters say kobe couldnt win without shaq, well guess what he did. And Jordan never won without Scotty. hmmm..... i gots some thinking to do....
Scottie Pippen was the perfect complement to Michael Jordan. Together, whey won championships, apart they struggled. Scottie and Michael pushed each other to a perfection never seen before in the sport. Together, they gave the world the best basketball entertainment the world has ever seen.
greatest sidekick EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF if scottie was in his prime right now they would have been saying "he is the next mj" an amazing player one of the best
Scottie in his prime was just as good as Lebron or Kobe right now. He had superior athleticism to Kobe, was faster than Lebron and could shoot better, had better post moves and above all he had ridiculous defense..that's rare and valuable these days.
pip is one of the best..he does'nt deserve to be called a sidekick..that's disrespectful..one of the 50 greatest players and probably the best all around player in the league in his days,that's sick for him to be called sidekick.
pippen had a humble beginning. he was a unknown player in the uni and had a rough rookie season. however, he had the right mindset. he did all the dirty job like defense and the hustle work. he pass, he shoot and do whatever it takes to win. and thats is the reason why he and mj can be a great duo. let mi tell yall even if kobe is wif mj, i doubt they can emerge as great as the pippen-mj duo. no offense to kobe though.
And if not for Hakeem the Dream, Scottie would have been the unaniamous MVP in 1993-94..he was the league's very best small-forward and perhaps it's best player on both ends of the ball..
Who would have thought Scottie Pippen would become a International All-World forward, perennial All-Pro, one of the best defensive players of all time, one of the 50 greatest players in NBA history, and an induction into the Pro Basketball Hall of Fame..oh, and six NBA World Championship rings to add to it..
I don't like how they brushed aside his carrer outside of chicago. He led the blazers to the western finals and pushed the lakers to 7 games. Pip still did his thing in the league after MJ retired. I also hate that he is viewed as just a damn sidekick, he's one of the 50 greatest players and imo he's the better all around player in comparison to Jordan.
pip is the best basketball playa i ever seen...i don't give a shit who disagrees...that man could play his ass off and had not a weakness to his game when it was all said and done.
maun fuck them...you and i both know pip has the ebst all around game of any player in his era...he passed the ball because he wanted to, not because he had to...he could score 30 at any point, but he just chose not to do it...taking nothing away from mike, he was the franchise, but pippen was the heart and soul of that team...peace
i live in the chicago area so i got to see all the games. most of these fucktards live across the US whatever the case, they are basketball fuckups. they like bums like penny hardaway
there's a relief a basketball vid on youtube sans hip hop soundtrack. And with good close-ups rather than simply dramatic moves. "There's been a trade involving first round draft picks", captures well the sense of history. For some variation I thought Randy Newman's Jolly Coppers On Parade works well played over this.
its not only that, jordan and pippen are just better then those two, jordan greatest player ever, pippen greatest perimeter defender, jordan and pippen are on a different level then shaq kobe, and why did you say "even better then shaq and kobe" there are a couple better 1-2 punches then shaq kobe, ummm kareem and magic just to name one.
Is there anymore footage of Pip from his days at Central Arkansas? That is some seriously rare footage! Didn't know he wore number 54 in College. LOL Grants number. Looks way better in 33.
Bullshit I do consider Mike the best ever, but he NEVER won a ring without Pippen, remember that shit!

Kobe's good for 2000's players, but he's far away from the 80's 90's Legends.

To call Pippen a sidekick just doesn't seem accurate. As great as Jordan was he didn't win a champisonship without Scottie.
