I see dudes in here saying pip was overrated and MJ made him better...well MJ made everyone better seeing as how he was the greatest player ever...
and as far as overrated...he held his own on the offensive end....he was a lockdown defender
the best al around player in the game when he was in his prime....
can anyone name a weakness in scotties skill set??
can anyone name 10 small fowards better than pip??
Oh and didnt pip lead the bulls to the ECF and one game away from the finals minus Jordan in 94?

dont get me wrong, mj is the goat, but he needed scottie.

dude had one good year in 94 without mj
Look at his numbers in houston and portland.....those are role player numbers
Just saying...... -
Oh and he didnt "take" portland to the wcf......he was a role player on that team. He wasnt even their best player smmfh

Yeah but shaq was a beast from the get go..pip wasnt. His first 2 years wasnt amazing and his last 5 or 6 wasnt neither. -
Him and Charles barkely weren't the best of friends..........
-
for one year, 94, scottie pippen was the best & most complete player in the league. he did everything for that team
-

He still wasnt good without mj and the subsequent years in portland proved that -

They interviewed Matt bullard I believe a few years ago.
And he said When Scottie pippen came to houston all he talked about was how everything wasnt like it was in Chicago.
Like when Houston lost, he would say "man if this was chicago we would have............... (insert line) ". lol
Scottie was a good player though. I think he and T-Mac are very similar. They are great, but not good enough to carry a team.
That Portland team from 1999 had so much talent it was ridiculous. -

The hate for Pippen is funny Like I said again and again Pippen changed the Small Foward position he invented the Point Foward from the wing position ! one of the best defenders ever. You see the Grant Hill's and Tmac cuz of Pippen a real deal all around player. He did things that stat sheets want show. Not only that he was a reliable second option that could control the tempo of the game he guarded 1-4 positions. He was the second best player in the League. Led the bulls to 55 wins when he played solo. And Tommy before you say that he sat out Game 3 because the play wasn't drawn up for him and thats disrespect to him because he was the Man. The second year when hethe Bulls hovering around .500 The Bulls had nobody Loss Grant and Armstrong so your starting 5 was Pippen Pete Myers, Toni Kukoc Will Perdue. and Ron Harper. With a bench of journeyman like Jud Bucheler and Steve Kerr and Larry Kistowiak and who's winning with that bro??? Jordan couldn't even win with that when he cameback LOL.

When has scottie pippen EVER been the second best player in the nba?
-
There is Pippen hate? If you hate Pippen, you hate life and must've been a 90s baby who didn't comprehend what he was watching.
As on his own ? as Mike is, he knows every one of his rings is outsourced without Pip. -

Bro he was Jordan equal in the aspect of all around player Ofcourse Jordan is the GOAT but as far a a all around player and relentless on the court just like Jordan was.It's like Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig for the Yankees they both was great players just that Ruth was Greater Lou was right behind him though -
best all-around player for some years but I wouldnt say the best
