      Isiah seems to be one of the few guys who don't have an overinflated ego. He gives credit where credit is due no matter what.
      That's why he recognizes MJ is the GOAT and that's why he didn't by to Charles Okley's bullshit like "Giannis would be a bench player in my era".
      Isiah has every reason to agree with that, he is the leader of one of the best team of that era. And yet, he doesn't let his ego do the talking.

      Hard truth though: Scottie at that time was notably better than Thomas. Pippen was 21/8/7 at the time on 51% FG% with more steals and 5x as many blocks per game and Isiah was 18.5/3/7 on 44.6% FG%. The only stat Isiah was higher in was turnovers. Scottie's prime stats and accomplishments are also better than Isiah's, so. . .tbh, he can't sit there and knock Pipp' just because he was on a team with MJ. Pippen was extremely important to the Bulls winning and I don't think they win any more than maybe 2-3 with an average replacement SF instead.
      My man Isiah is just salty here tbh. He doesn't have the right to disrespect Pippen. Pipp' is way underrated.

      Go ahead and look at the 91-92 All NBA First and Second Team 9/10 of them are in the Dream Team thats 9 out of the 11 spots and those two went to Magic and Bird.
      Even Kevin Johnson a point guard himself made the 90 91 and 92 All NBA teams and wasn't selected for the Dream Team are you going to claim Isiah deserved it over him given the form at the time ?
      And Kevin Johnson was averaging more points rebounds assists while shooting a better percentage but Isiah deserved the spot ?

      Dude, the worst player on dream team 1 was Christian Lattener. The worst on 2.0 was hall of famer Mitch Richmond. Not to mention the fact Bird was washed basically by then. He spent 95% of his time laying on the floor to stretch out his back. Dream Team 2.0 had Shaq, Hakeem, and Robinson at center. Dream team 1.0 had Robinson and Ewing. So, I mean remove Robinson from the equation and you're left with having Shaq and Hakeem or Patrick Ewing. I mean, Ewing is a legend and one of the better centers to ever play. But, he's not in the same tier as Hakeem and Shaq, period. Then I mean Grant Hill and Penny Hardaway pre injuries were only just like considered to be the new faces of the league. Still had Barkley, Stockton, Malone, and Pippen in the backend of their primes. Both Barkley and Pippen maybe lost half a step in athleticism but had become so much more complete as players. Better ball handlers, passers, expanded their offensive repertoire with better more consistent shooting from mid and 3pt range. And the cherries on top you have Gary Payton and Reggie Miller. Two agitators that were the best at getting under people's skin, talking non stop, and most annoyingly often backing up that talk with play that only got better in clutch time. Then, I mean Magic was still great but past nearing the end of his prime, had knee problems, and was dealing with forced early retirement due to just recently learning of his HIV diagnosis. Chris Mullins isn't better than anyone on the 96 team either. So I mean, the 96 team has just about everyone in their prime, had more depth and talent at every position, and the 96 versions of Stockton, Malone, Barkley, Pippen, and Robinson were all just as good if not better than they were in 92. Yes, 92 had Jordan and he's the goat but the 96 team is better in every other regard. More shooting, more size, more athleticism, more youth, more depth, and had more pressure on them as they had to follow up the most praised teams in any sport ever. So, the expectations were way higher while also playing at an Olympics that was held on home soil in Atlanta. If the 1996 team did anything but dominate their way to a gold they would've been labeled as one of the biggest disappointments in the history of sports.

Pippen was a different personality from Jordan so the organization probably felt different in the locker room and during practice, so you can't take away from what Pippen did after MJ.

At no point was Pippen ever regarded as the 2nd best player in the NBA ever. Phil Jackson wouldn't even let Pippen take the final shot in the 94 series it went to Toni Kukoc. Pippen sat down like a bitch and bailed the final play. czcams.com/video/QZhupKWCsEU/video.html

      "Pippen was THE BEST PLAYER ON THE DREAM TEAM as said by the coaches, trainers and journalists." That's subjective I don't know what articles you were reading but Charles Barkley avg the most points on the team 2nd was Jordan. I dunno what you were watching but how could you possibly tell who was the best player when every game was decided by 30 pts or more.
