  • Hey Seattle,bet you are kicking yourself for not keeping that pick...Pippen turned out to be one of the tp 15 greatest players...EV-ER!

  • Scaut Pippen 

  • scottie pippen looks native american

  • HA HA COMPARING HIM TO DENNIS RODMAN = WRONG. ONE OF THE MOST COMPLETE PLAYER. IMAGINE IF HE PLAYED FOR SEATTLE IT WOULD BEEN SCOTTIE, GARY PAYTON AND SHAWN KEMP. WHAT A DANGEROUS UNIT THEY WOULD OF BEEN.

  • Scottie Pippen in the 90's is better than any player in the league now besides kobe. The league has just declined a great deal in the talent pool and made a jump into the athletic field. I miss the 90's.

  • @PEPPERMENTschnabs I THINK YOU HAVE LOST YOUR FUCKING MIND . LBJ DURANT WADE ARE ALL BETTER . LET ME ASK YOU HAS PIPPEN EVER BEEN MVP

  • @ryanr20091 kobe, duncan, nash, a.i, garnett, and c webb were all high school and college stars in the 90s. imo, 90s had better high school and college basketball. 90s is the best decade, deal with it!!!!!!! todays best sport is nfl

  • @billslover90

    Kobe Bryant did not play any College games, he came to the league straight after HS. His contract was actually signed by his parents because he was 17 years old at that time.

  • @GinobiliFanLT i know that, i mentioned both high school and college. kobe is the jordan of the 2000s

  • What a great decision by Chicago to seek Scottie to the ballclub from Seattle!!!

  • Shows you how stupid fans are. Booing a top 50 player all time.

  • hes so serious no smile

  • lol scotties voice is still the same

  • scottie and jordan is the best duo. no other combination goes better

  • @Jd2ohsix I like it much better the way it turned out

  • He was in seattle o_O just imagine payton schrempf kemp and pippen...

  • i bet the crowd regrets booing him

  • he looks like derrick rose

  • Ballhandling; check. Shooting; check. Passing; check. 6'8" check. Defensive abilities; not mentioned. LOL

  • r theese guys stupid???? comparing pippen with rodman in one point lol

  • Great player..very underrated though man

  • and 6 rings later

  • Good ol' Scott Pippen.....now reduced to trashing Michael Jordan out of jealousy.

  • "Some comparing him with Dennis Rodman" ... Yeah, big common point: CHAMPIONS!!

  • This Scott Pippen reminds me of the rookie Dennis Rodman. Do you think he would be as good as that guy?

  • Haha good ol Scott Pippen

  • how did pippen become underrated he just got overshadowed by g.o.a.t MJ

  • i love how champions get booed

  • why did david stern say 'scott' instead of 'scottie'?

  • @FanOfTheDoraemons Scott is probably his birth name and a more formal name then scottie.

  • @bootheguru

    Nah, Scott is not his birth name...

    I know a guy called "Jon" in real life, and that's his full name, not Jonathan. Also yeah, it is Mark Jackson at the 0:15 mark.

  • if he wasn't later trade to the bulls then MJ probably would have never been what he is today. the GOAT

  • wow, looking at the draft board, Scottie nearly went to the Kings.. :/

  • Is that Mark Jackson at 0:15???

  • @tubenachos yes I think

  • @tubenachos yes

  • pippen the right hand man of jordan

  • lol he said scott

  • lo and behold he was traded to the bulls. that was one of the greatest things that ever happened

  • hahahahah its funny how they compared him to dennis rodman

  • Thanks Seattle - From Chicago Bulls fan

  • "Scott" Pippen lmao.

    

  • announcer is not too bright. "Recruited at 6'1, grew 6 inches and is now 6'8 " nice math...

  • hahahahaha dennis rodman????????????

  • damn wish i would grow another 6 inches lol

  • LMAO.. I love the commentator's quote: "There are people who compare him to Dennis Rodman, the Detroit Pistons rookie, would you agree with that Larry?

    Larry: "Yeah I would in some way but I think he's a better ball handler..." lmao right on the money....

  • @eduardillo85 They were probably referring to his defense but still thats not even close

  • @eduardillo85 Also because Scottie came out of a NAIA like Rodman and Rodman also grew several inches late also.

  • @eduardillo85 and possibly a better shooter? :)

  • If he actually played in the sonics

    think about what would have happened

    in about 2 more years Shawn Kemp would have been drafted, and a year after that Gary Payton would have been drafter

    maybe the sonics wouldn't have moved

    Sigh i miss the sonics

  • @ks101794 if pippen was picked then there was a huge chance kemp and payton wouldnt have been drafted

  • @supimjon

    True

    But now how sick would it be if we all all three of them?

  • nobody knew who scottie pippen was, now everyone who knows anything about basketball knows who scottie pippen is

  • SCOTT PIPPEN!!!

  • Are you fucking kidding me? Another superstar that was drafted by a Seattle sports team only to be traded away for a player that will do nothing in their career.

  • who talked about rodman destiny man

  • 4:00 surprised he got picked so high with the 5th selection?!?!? He should have been picked #2 or even #1 over Robinson with the kind of career he had

  • WTH R PEOPLE booing him LOL???? MOST UNDERRATED OF ALL TIME LOL IS TOO TRUE!!!!

  • Man the bulls were brilliant with their moves trading for Scottie Pippen and drafting Horace Grant. Some players call Scottie "Mission Impossible" so you get the idea.

  • "little bit better ball handler than rodman"  uhh yea

    it's funny howt they compared him to him, tho

  • "Scott" Pippen? Come on it's Scottie! Glad that dude called him Scottie the second time he said his name.

  • best wingman ever

  • Pippen is in the top 5 best in the league plain and simple

  • people were booing him but oh boy, they didn't know what was about to happen...

  • Yea TODO, he tourched the knicks for a decade. Patrick still wakes up dreaming of looking up at Scottie's nutz looking down at him in a playoff game in Chicago, No doubt one of my favorite players,and one of the greatest players ever. Michael said Scottie was the best player he ever played with, and you know Mike23 schooled him until Scottie33 realized he needed to step his game up and i guarentee once Scottie got great he posterized MJ23 in practice.

  • what a humble guy...scottie pippens the man!

  • he didnt seem excited at all lol

  • @Tazzarinaa cause he was booed no one likes to be booed

  • Scott Pippen, baby!

  • i love this video and found it very funny for several reasons.... 1. they booed a hall of famer, 2. they called him scott pippen haha, 3. they spoke about his future teammate dennis rodman, 4. they made it sound like he would be a sonic his whole career.....

  • scott pippen

  • Boo Scottie all you want. He's got jewelry on six of his fingers. Kiss the rings.

  • 6'1?

    and then 6'7?

    WTF!!!!

  • the supersonic fans booed Pippen thats why they dont have a team any more they move tho OKC.

  • Comment removed

  • I don't think they were booing; I think they were saying "Who?"

  • An era was soon about to begin.

  • "people are comparim him with the Detroit Pistons rookie Dennis Rodman" LOL, if they only knew, history in the making

  • @kbmorrison100 becuase dennis used to be a scorer in college.

  • @midatlantic09 That's your daddy!

  • LOLOLOLOL they booed this man, when he got drafted....A lot of ppl are now eating their words hahahaha

  • Who the hell is Scott Pippen? I don't know who that is.

  • Oh how all those folks who booed felt like complete idiots 4 years later.......kinda like those Philly Eagles fans in the 1999 NFL draft.

  • WELCOME TO THE HALL OF FAME SCOTTIE!!!!!

  • scott pippen? lol

  • there goes robin... the second half to the worlds most famous duo.

  • future hall of famer gets boo'd classic! he showed them! lol

  • he lost $120 million in career earnings because of bad investments! that's probably why he played in sweden a couple years ago..

  • you know theres a big difference from players drafted bad then and the players now in terms of their speaking. all the players today are always going "like.....ummm... yeah....ummm....just.......umm­.....play hard.....ummm" lol

  • ''Scott Pippen''?!......and that was coming from the commissioner of the NBA ?! mad disrespect! and Pippen looks pissed shaking Stern's hands

  • lol they booed a pick of a future hall of famer

  • wow i feel bad. people booed him, and his name wasnt even mentioned correctly!!! SCOTT PIPPEN! and he looks like a skinny ass kid with no hope.....but destiny was on his side...

  • The missing piece to an amazing puzzle. One of the few players to weather the MJ abuse at practices and gain from it. IMO a better straight up defensive player and ball stopper than MJ but MJ definitely had him on quickness and rip players and playing the lanes. Funny how they compare to PIP to the Worm. Both became very different players by the end of their careers. Both very successful

  • dey booed Pip LO0k AT DEM NOW DONT EVEN HAVE A FRANCHISE LOL BOO DAT

  • @deedooc GFY, but learn how to spell first.

  • They compared him to Rodman? lol, rodman had no offense whatsoever

  • @ABauersMusic neither did Pippen at first

  • he hardly smiled at his retirement ceromony either. dont think he ever smiled that much. he'd make an awesome poker player

  • scottie doesnt look happy that he was drafted by seattle man i would be doing backflips if i knew that i was going to be set for life financially

  • Well first of all they were booing his ass off... I mean that might make it hard to smile.

  • yeah good point but...most players stay very calm and feel totally overwhelmed and intimidated at that point !...

    I know I'd be all smile though...

  • why did these bitch fans boo him?

  • I love how he got booed when he was picked. Hm, FUCK ALL YOU BOOERS! Look at what he did with his career. He is easily one of the best players of all time in the NBA and probably the most overshadowed of all time. Such a shame he wasn't given enough credit since he was MJ's sidekick. Pippen HOF 2010!!!

  • @TheOnlyDisturbedOne

    i dont think he was jordans "sidekick"...

    pippen wouldnt have won without jordan just like jordan wouldnt have won without scottie.

    jordan was very adamant that the bulls keep jackson and pippen and made sure management took care of them when their contracts were up for negotiation...because he knew he needed them to win.

  • Oh I don't think of him as his sidekick either. I just meant that's how he was perceived and why he wasn't given as much credit as he deserved. I do commend Jordan for making a point to always say he couldn't have done it without Scottie. He even made a point to say it at his Hall of Fame induction. Scottie deserves the recognition every bit as much as MJ does.

  • @TheOnlyDisturbedOne If you watch the NBA draft year after year, the crowd always boo the draftees. The only exceptions are really great rookie prospects, or Knicks (since the draft takes place in New York).

  • @TheOnlyDisturbedOne I wouldn''t say that. Scottie is widely admired. And no one doubts how much he contributed to the Bull''s title. Heck, he almost took them to the final himself when Jordan retired the first time. And you could argue that he was the most versatile player ever.

  • @TheOnlyDisturbedOne They booed him because they knew he would say the stupid comment he made about Lebron being better then Jordan.

  • Perfect physique for a basketball player.

  • I love Pip, best all-around player in the history of b-ball, but DAMN he is a ugly mother fucker!!!

  • 23.6ppg, 10rpg and 59.4% fg!!!

  • for me is number two of all...

  • The definition of hard work. Him and Jordan.

  • when Michael Jordan leave the NBA because of Baseball in 1994.. Scottie Pippen's became an MVP candidate and still make that bulls team into an 50+ win team.. so he is really a great player..

  • a skinny kid that is now revered as one of the 50 greatest!!! Hall of Famer!!

  • he was so skinny wow

  • Most Underrated Player In The History Of Basketball, Period.

  • @Diabolic2Syyn SO TRUE!!!!!!

  • @Diabolic2Syyn

    TOTALLY agree.

  • @Diabolic2Syyn Not only that, but he's THE SECOND BEST basketball player of all time.

  • @Diabolic2Syyn under rated? maybe by the people but people that really know the nba all know that hes top 50 thats ever played basketball.

  • @Diabolic2Syyn that is so true

  • @Diabolic2Syyn him and duncan really are incredbly underrated

  • @njnets2000

    I wouldn't think Tim Duncan is overrated since people consider him the best PF ever and the reason for the Spurs dynasty. I mean to be considered better than Barkley and Malone is borderline overrated to be honest, but he has rings so there isn't much of an argument.

  • @myez He's not flashy, he just gets it done.

  • @TrevWILL79

    Yeah, never said he was. 

  • I would say the Bulls got the better of the trade.

  • They compared scottie pippen to Denis Rodman LOLLL. Who would have known they would become teammates on one of the best sport teams ever.

  • And to think he was only the 2nd best player on those Bulls teams

  • wow he looks real happy

  • imagine if PIPPEN played with PAYTON and KEMP in SEATTLE! lol they would have 3 got to guys and 3 role players with PERKINS, HAWKINS and SCHREMPF...

  • not possible, seattle got rights to the kemp pick, from the bulls.

  • No they didn't, they traded for Olden Polynice, and sent Pippen to the Bulls. Kemp was using their own pick.

  • That would've been one of the best teams ever. Only problem, Michael Jordan was one of those guys that made everyone around him better, so Pippen may have ended up a bust without him.

  • @murb93 jordan never made everyone around him better.Go check the stats Scottie was a damn good player coming out of college thats why he was pick so high in the draft.his college was a small college that is why he was not a well known player back then the media was still much a baby as where it is today.Check out vintage games of him when he started as a rookie for bulls.Coaches like Doug Collins don't play rookies as much.50 other players should have recognition if Jordan made everyone better.

  • GO BULLS

  • He was compared to Rodman...that was great....Rodman could rebound and play defense but never came close to Pip's offensive skills

  • Jerry Krauses greatest achievement

  • I remember watching this draft and saying to myself "Scott Pippen from where? The Bulls stupid!" I guess I was wrong.

  • Look at those shorts.

  • Defense is not all about stats. It is about distracting the offensive player mentally and physically. Also getting the offensive player out of his comfort zone. Another aspect about defense is to force an offensive player to go to certain spots on the court for team defense and to take away other aspects of his individual as well as the teams over all offensive goal and sets.defense is about limiting many options to just few

  • Lebron needs to play more defense Pippen is one of the best players ever to play defense if not the best on the ball not including big men. If you playing basketball you never want Pippen guarding you. Just take the night off and get some rest. I would love to see Pippen on Lebron. For a fact he will not have it easy.

  • One of the best all around players ever.

  • Pippen was born in 1966 then if hes 21 here...Oh yeah Jordan and Pippen were great back then

  • He could do everything, take it to the rim, hit shots off the glass, shoot the 3, pass, defend on the perimeter, rebound n he was more then willing to take a charge.

    It's rare that a guy as talented as Scottie would be willing to do the dirty work for a team. He did alot of intangibles on the court that can't be shown through stats.

    There have been alot of guys in the league that have had athletic talent like Scottie but couldn't put it all together like he did!

  • thank finally sumbody seeing wat i see in scottie

  • seattle could have had a hall of famer, and dennis rodman is still out of control.

  • who the fuck is scott pippen? lol its scottie pippen damn it.

  • they didnt know who he was but they would soon find out i think hes best sf ever bulls dont win championships without him...he guarded there best players nd scored over 20pts a game

  • Jordan guarded the best players in the 80's and early 90's Pippen only guarded the best player after Jordan retired and he averaged 17 points a a game not 20

  • so u telling me sumbody with 10 NBA All-Defensive awards one shy of the NBA record by the way didnt guard the best offensive player ur better go look up sum tape on pip then ...i didnt mean as a whole career because he played a long time so towards the end of his career his pts where down but he avg over 20pts more than once

  • U need to look at some stats. Pippen did make 10 all nba defensive teams but Jordan Made 9 all defensive teams and would have made at least 11 if he didn't retire. If you do some studying on NBA history you will see that Jordan was the defensive stopper for the bulls until he retired then Pippen took over that job because Jordan was older. Pippen only truly became a hall of famer when he had to step up his game because Jordan retired and that is the player everybody remembers Pippen as being

  • first i dont need to look at stats maybe u shoud i wasnt going to say it b4 pippin avg 16 not 17 pts a game..ur augument makes no sence bc he only played one season with out jordan ur saying he's all of famer bc of that season hell no...jordan said it his self without scottie they dont win a championship u look up any player profile of scottie nd the first thing u will here his D that dont mean J didnt guard the best player sumtims but the majorty of the time it was scottie...but w.e. im through

  • my whole point was scottie is one of the best players to play the game nd the best sf in my mind period...no need to talk about it anymore nothin u going to say is going to change my view....have great day...ha...

  • u r just helping me to prove my point by saying pippen only avg 16 not 17 pts lol. I'm not saying pippen wasn't a great player but Jordan was better in basically every area including defense. All u have to do is look at the games in the 80's and you will see how Jordan was a beast on offense and defense.

    I didn't say pippen was a hall of famer because of one year but he started to get consideration for being a hall of famer when jordan retired.

  • Lebron is much better at SF than Pippen dude....come on. There's never been anyone like LeBron

  • There are a lot of players in NBA history with better numbers than pippen but because they didn't win they don't get recognition as hall of famers .Pippen was lucky to play with Jordan because if he did stay in seattle he might not be remembered as a great player --Jordan put him in the spotlight.

  • lol how many championshipd did jordan get with out scottie again? he damn sure didnt come close with wizards i do rem scottie almost makin with the bulls nd portland...lebron is a beast i cant really argue with that but I key word I think scottie is better intill bron get 6rings i want callem the best... LIKE 1 bounce said scotty did alot of things that dont whow up on stats but the ones that do like havin more blocks nd steals than any other foward in history shines bright to me

  • How many championships did Pippen win without Jordan? Pippen choked in the clutch when he was with Portland thats why they didn't win even though they had the better team. I guess he needed Jordan to bail him out like he always did in Chicago. Jordan was 40 years old when he was with the wizards and had basically nothing on his team. Jordan has more steals than Pippen and only 54 less blocks than Pippen dispite playing 106 less games than Pippen. Not even Pippen thinks that he is better

  • 1991 nba finals. who guarded magic johnson? shut your mouth.

  • pippen allowed magic to have his best games during that series so you shut your mouth!

  • lol. go read a history book, or just watch the games for that matter ... are you serious???

  • You must be like 15 years old

    Pippen was not better than jordan at anything even Pippen would tell you that

  • Did I ever once say that Pip was better than MJ in any skill/category? No. I simply stated that Pippen's man-on-man defense on the opposing teams' best players is often overlooked, other than by true fans and observers of the game, as opposed to fair-weather fans.

    Note that Phil Jackson has gone on record to say that Pippen was a better defender than Jordan. That's no knock on Jordan - Pippen was way longer and a bit taller. Even if I didn't agree with Jackson, it's still worth mentioning.

  • show me where Jackson said that

  • pippen man to man defense is overated, speedier guards like isiah thomas and glyde drexler burn him all the time that is why they had to have jordan on drexler, cause pipen got burned, besides that he looks like a girl in his teenies, got no respect for a lady boy, put a wig on him and fuck him right there, it's doable.

  • then how come pippen never won defensive player of the year? you are embarassing yourself with your idiotic comments.

  • Liweiwu007,

    Ironically, those who are both ignorant yet arrogant, are the ones who truly know nothing.

    Notice your tone. Now look up a few inches and note mine.

    It is a well-established fact that the NBA, more than any professional league in modern sports history, is a star-driven league that has actively propelled certain players into the superstar stratum. Interestingly, Michael Jordan is the poster child of this movement.

  • Asking why Pippen never won DPOY is akin to asking why Hakeem Olajuwon did not win an MVP award until Michael Jordan left the NBA for the first time. At that point, the NBA was scrambling to find its next great superstar. Scottie Pippen was left in the wake, coming in fourth in MVP voting.

    Name me some other players who led their teams to a 55-win season in his FIRST year as the go-to player. Name me some others who, while doing so, led his team in every single major statistical category.
