I can't understand how anyone can say that anyone playing today is better than Jordan or Pippen

[farneyblakeley]

That dunk at 2:00 is unreal, more like a video game. Jordan was basketball God at this point in his career regardless of team accolades, ie championships.

@ihofaerefa Statistically yes not but many. Those players are also the #1 option on their teams. Pippen was 2nd to MJ. Big difference.

[ihofaerefa]

@Loudmouf84 well, statistically, some players are playing better than pippen...

[meanCrizxt]

it would have been the greatest basketball game of alll time if Bulls only have MJ and Scottie vs the rest of the Clippers, and still won.

@BigdogH201 That's how you see who was, indeed, the greatest! Yeah that 1965 ECF was a pain in the ass for wilt. If it wasn't for "Havlicek stole the ball", nba history could'va changed... a lot

[BigdogH201]

@miguel151420 So you mean that John Halivcek and Bob Cousy weren't that good? No. But Wilt did have Chet Walker and Hal Greer. Plus, the Warriors and Sixers always pushed Boston to six or seven games match-up. And had a clear shot of beating them in the1965 NBA Conference Finals. And I never said that Reed was better. I said he couldn't beat him with a loaded Laker team in 1970!!! Chamberlain missed that season with a career threatning injury in 1970? Yet, put up 22 ppg in the playoffs!!!

@BigdogH201 You're seriously telling me that russel was better than wilt? You're kidding right? So you mean that Bob Cousy and John Havlicek weren't that good? Or was russel who made them better? If you can't remember, the only time, as I said, that Russel was indeed better than Wilt was in 69. Uh? Reed? You're joking right? Remember that Chaimberlain nearly missed that season with a career-threatning injury on his knees, and was 10 years older than Reed... So don't come with THOSE bullshits!

[BigdogH201]

@miguel151420 Bill Russell was the smartest center and more dominant player than Wilt. Wilt had god-like skills and athleticism. However, Russell made his team better and always knew how to win. Wilt didn't always help his team win or make his team better. And don't hit me with that b.s. about him not having the same teammates. Wilt couldn't beat him in 69 (with a loaded LA team) or Reed in 70!!!

[miguel151420]

@BigdogH201 From this list of yours I wouldn't put bob cousy, bob petit, and d-wade (I would put d-wade, not on top 20) , and seriously, you put all HOF behind bill russel? He just had a better team, look at Wilt. He was faar better than him, but just didn't had a good team. Look a 67 playoffs. Wilt's team dominated the entire playoffs! The only time I agree that russel was better than wilt was in the 1969 finals, were they won in 7 games

@miguel151420 Precisely!! And not just Grant, but also John Paxson. Most people don't even know how good he was. He was a huge part of the Bulls 1st 3peat. Starting point guard on all 3 teams and hit many clutch shots. Anyone who hates on Pippen doesn't know what they're talking about
