It's about time some of the TRUTH came out about THE GREAT SCOTTIE PIPPEN! I'm 67 yrs. old I watched the Chicago Bulls from 87 throughout their entire Championships runs. The MAN deserves far more RESPECT!
1000%!!!! It's disrespectful. He's my favorite of all time.
As long as he respects his self. 🙄
Indeed
Totally agree. I watched them all too. There is a certain section of people who think that Scottie's success was just because he played with MJ. The same could be said of MJ.
Scottie was amazing, with or without Jordan. Those titles were because of those two TOGETHER.
There were even periods of time in which Pippen was more valuable to the team than Jordan. The one thing he lacked was pure scoring and finishing, but it's not like he didn't have any of those things.
Everyone also remembers when MJ retired and then had to come back and "save the Bulls". But that 94 team, without MJ, only won like 2 or 3 less regular season games than the year before. And if not for a historically bad call against the Knicks, they would have made it to the Finals (the Knicks went on to win the ECF and take the Rockets to 7 in the NBA Finals). Pippen should've been regular season MVP that year. The Bulls had a great record, and he led the team in ALL FIVE major statistical categories.
He was the third best player on the Dream Team, behind Jordan and Barkley. Magic and Bird were older, so he was better than them at that time. He led the Dream Team in assists over Magic.
Defensively, he's one of the best to ever lace them up. He would always destroy the other team's facilitator and make them work to even get across half court in the playoffs.
Lastly, the one thing I think he doesn't get enough props for is his ability to finish at the rim. He was SO long, athletic, and strong. He generated a ton of fast breaks with his defense and was unstoppable in the open court. He and Jordan together in the open court was an opponent's worst nightmare.
He was a genuine leader and had little ego, outside of a couple bad moments for him that we're all aware of. His teammates loved him and saw him as the supportive, encouraging leader vs Jordan's demanding and intimidating leadership.
Yeah, we had the WGN network where I'm from and we didn't have our own team back then. I got to watch all of the Bulls games and Pippen was a helluva basketball player. He was considered the best all around player in the league back then. I'm not taking anything from Jordan but besides scoring, Pippen was as good or better in every aspect of the game of basketball.
I've always believed Scottie is the most underrated player ever. The fact that he's not even considered an all time great Small Forward is insane, and that's not even close to the recognition he deserves. And to this day he still gets disrespected by the media. I understand why he holds bad feelings about those days.
I agree, and if I may add most underpaid too. 2nd best player in a team (best for 1 1/2 yrs when Michael retired) and got paid $2.2, $2.9 and $2.2 million dollars in his last 3 years in Chicago. Oh and probably the most disrespected too. Jerry Krause didn't give him a good contract so they can sign Toni Kukoc in the future.
What about Wilt or bill Russell or Tim Duncan? If Ray Allen isn't clutch Tim gets into convo with MJ
Jordan built him. He was a testament to Jordan greatness.
@@michaelstewart4280 stop with the he built him shit. I guess Shaq built kobe too or Kareem built magic
@@ljayydagoat7113 tell me u don't know basketball without saying u don't know basketball.
Its so weird hearing all of these Scottie Pippen talks recently. Back in the 90’s EVERYONE knew what Scottie brought to the table. Believe me when I tell you that Scottie was INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!
Now that time has passed I can see how Scottie gets overlooked and not recently recognized for his contributions. But when Scottie played, he was possibly the best all around player in the League for several years consecutive.
Most players from the past become overlooked or somewhat forgotten. Each decade only the top 3-5 players are really remembered as time goes on.
Jordan, Hakeem, Robinson, Bird, Magic, Hill, Drexler, Payton, Pippen etc are not just some of the most all around players of their Era but OAT.
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 JORDAN FANS NOT DESERVES TO TALK BOUT THE GOAT TEAM PLAYER !!
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 What does Hill have to do with this list?
Oh, I know: Grant Hill drinks sprite!
Those commercial kids are so pathetic.
Pip deserves his flowers he’s one of the greats ! Definitely top 10 of all time
Top 10 sf
The Mailman don't deliver on sundays... That's just too savage, damn 😂
So good!
As a lifetime baller and basketball officionado Scottie pippen's jersey is the only Jersey I ever bought (and still have to this day). I loved Scottie pippen. I definitely like Jordan but didn't understand why he got so much accolades and Scotty was in the background. I recognize Scottie's pippen's greatness from the minute I saw him. Way to go Scottie!
My brother and I also got that jersey. We absolutely loved his game and recognized how great he was when it was happening. M.J. seemed to be the only other person to recognize it. People really also need to check out how well he did when Mike was gone and realize that Mike didn't win the chip without Scottie either
Because Jordan was better and more impactful than Pippen. What accolades did Jordan get that Pippen should've got?
@@JJ-ut3sn Pippen had a 3peat team intact with 5 new players in his prime, Jordan was drafted to a provety franchise and had led them into contenders by 89. Context
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 MVP
@@hansmransm8835 What yr did Pippen deserve MVP?
I just think Michael was the perfect player and Scottie made Michael More perfect and Michael made Scottie more perfect together they were the most unstoppable wing duo in history
Forget how they did the "Last Dance" from what I'm seeing.....Jordan always gave Pippen mad credit...
Scottie Pippen is absolutely underrated! Without both Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, there would be no six NBA championships. End of story. It definitely took both of them to make that possible.
How do you know that?
Kobe won 3 with Shaq, then 2 without Shaq didn't he? Didn't Shaq go on to win another ring without Kobe? Didn't Kareem win a ring with the Bucks before ever playing with Magic? Hasn't Lebron won on 3 different teams along side different players?
That’s true, but if Scottie was replaced with someone like Ewing, Mutombo, Drexler, then we’d be saying, “Jordan wouldn’t have his 6 championships without that guy”
@@glenroybrathwaite1531 if you know basketball and you watch basketball you know that. You know Jordan didn't win much without Scottie. Matter of fact Scottie advanced further in the playoffs without Jordan than Jordan did without Scottie.
@@kuunami Shit if Jordan stayed retired and the Bulls added a viable shooting guard besides Pete Myers Pippen might have won a ring without MJ 🤷🏾♂️💯
I'm 61. Been playing and watching basketball my whole life. Phil said it best. "Pippen is the best all around player in the league right now". Pippen does not get the credit he deserves. You can't say who was the best small forward ever, but he is among the top three in my opinion. Is he the best, maybe... but for sure he is my favorite small forward of all time. So much fun to watch him play.
Bird, LeBron, doc, KD, Hondo, Baylor
Pip dunked so easily. But his vision on both ends was simply amazing. On defense he always knew what you were going to do because you were going to do what Scottie wanted you to do.
As a fan in that era I can say MJ is the goat but my favorite all time player is Scottie Pippen he was so fun to watch on both ends of the floor and I say that he really started the point forward thing
As a kid in Chicago, I had Jordan posters everywhere and idolized him.
But I always knew, even then, that Scottie was the heartbeat of those teams. Unbelievably unselfish and unbelievably smart. He may have the best basketball I.Q. I've ever seen.
@@bradleyboyer9979 and he owes it all to MICHAEL JEFFREY JORDAN. He made Scottie Pippen.
@@brockgee6886 Absolutely ridiculous. Tell me you weren't alive for those years without telling me you weren't alive for those years. Any human being with an ounce of basketball knowledge who watched those teams knows very well that Pippen was extremely talented and one of the best players in the world. Where do you get your info from? Documentaries that Jordan wrote?
@bradleyboyer9979 I agree with you 💯. But what I said was Scottie became the player he was because of MJ. When Scottie got to the Bulls he was stringbean bench riding water boy for Charles Oakley. It took Brad Seller's to get injured for Scottie to get any playing time. Look it up I know what I am talking about. It took 3 years for him to grow and be trusted as a starter. MJ took him under his wing and that's how we got the Scottie we know now. He and MJ.... top 5 defensive players of all time.
@bradleyboyer9979 also I don't have to watch Documentaries on MJ I was there from the day he step on the college scene.
" What time is it, Game time wooo" still gives me chills.
the most complete player ever
the 2nd best defender after bill russell
generational in every aspect of the game
all respect to scottie pippen
i hope he gets his flowers soon
I was lucky enough to grow up in that Era and watch the best dynasty dominate. I'm a fan of Jordan but my no.1 favorite player was Pippen. That's why the only NBA jersey I own is chicago bulls no.33. Thanks for the video.
I'm from NC originally and MJ's high school team (Laney) was in our conference at the time that our schools were 4A (Goldsboro & Eastern Wayne, though I was a LOT younger than when I saw him play). UNC has always been my favorite basketball college (mainly because of Phil Ford, Al Wood and James Worthy), but when it came to the Bulls' Dynasty run, Scottie was always my favorite player, because of his impact on the game without scoring (fill in the blanks style of play, that I tried to pattern my game after). Scottie is definitely unsung. He STILL doesn't get the credit that he deserves...
Scottie Pippen is the all-time #1 best forward and the most underrated/ underappreciated player in NBA history. Period.
No he isn't
I don’t care what anyone says, I would take Scottie over Lebron if I was creating a team. His defense alone to me is worth it and he leaves so much room for other players to pick up the offensive duties.
Best dynamic duo of all time
Absolutely loving the series! I hope it gets all of the love and attention that it deserves.
Appreciate that!
Thanks especially for this one, though the entire series is great work.
The way younger kids try to disregard Pippen's play and contributions today just turns my stomach.
Sharing this one, immediately.
I love love love seeing Pip get so much respect. I always felt he never got the respect he deserved
If MJ and Scottie had a baby, it would be Lebron.
He's not given enough respect.
He really is though at least by people who know the sport. He is a tip 25 player of all time. There isn't a bulls fan that exists that doesn't appreciate and understand the impact scottie has had. Mj talks about scottie at every opportunity including his hof indoctrination. The last dance clip everyone refers to was of scottie being a poor leader and a selfish teammate. It was a bad moment. But it's honest and it was a bad look. It hardly defines scottie. However he effectively blames jordon for showing a clip that was public knowledge. Scottie and his foolishness currently is diminishing his own legacy and it's sad to see
Jesus Loves you and wants you to accept him as your Lord and saviour
@Comedy Vibes Thor loves you and wants you to pick up a hammer
Between the 2 greats, there is no question MJ is a far superior player. But he and Scottie were the perfect combination for alll the achievements they achieved. Give Scottie his flowers.
Being the first option plays a big role, no doubt whatsoever.
This was awesome... Love Scottie Pippen...🦾🏀
The best video about pip ... i really enjoyed .. it was perfect !!
He is best defender of all time far superior than 2nd or third ! At least best wing or most skillful defender ... 97,98 rings goes to his defense ... all if these hosts said that he was second best player in 92 barcellona ... mj is mj ... goat far better than lebron or kobe !
But top five complete player of all time ... and topdefender ... unselfish .. !
And dont rely on stats .. differ from team to team era .. position, coach ...
He was ist in coach voting for ist teams 5,6 straight years in 90s ...
Best all round player of 90s best and toughest era and full of best legends of nba history ...
Best defender of all time ...bet all around player of his generation .. 6 rings .. play slongside gost ...
Can u put him 21th ???? No he is defenitly top ten .... for me he is number 2 after mj .. 3rd id kobe 4 is lebron ..
Greetings from Vienna. I grew up in Serbia and have loved basketball all my life. I appreciate so much this videos, thank you. I got to remember how happy I was as a youngster watching my idols from NBA. I am truly grateful for the basketball legends and guys like you, who making videos about their achievements. Thank you!
Thank you too!
Living in Chicago and watching every game booth Mj and Pip played
Mj is obviously the Goat
But Pip to this day is still the most we'll rounded 2 way players ever.
I noticed all ex-bulls players say Mj is Goat but Pip is the best teammate they ever played with. No six rings without both
Started the point forward position.
WGN Network Baby!!
Jordan always gave pippen his props
Not enough! Jordan never won a Championship until Scottie Pippen joined the Bulls. Jordan and Pippen complimented each other's style and techniques on the court.
@@williamcobb2973 I can show over 20 clips from 1989-1998 where Jordan praises Pippen during their rise to championship level and during their entire title run.......lebron fans started this nonsense
This is definitely true! But it's weird how pippen now in 2023 has been talking all this shit about how he hates Michael
He should be More Supportive instead of vindictive toward Scottie.
@@davidsteinberg2120 his ex-wife going to the other side doesn't help the situation...😮
I don't know a single person in my 40 years of watching sports that thinks Scottie Pippen isn't a great baller in his own rright.
Mj fans say mj 6-0 and not mj and pippen*** mj himself said can’t even bring up him winning without pippen 😂
Nick delivering when i needed some entertainment.....how sweet it is! thanks dude!
Glad you enjoyed it!
what an all around player, much respect for Scottie!!!
I've been saying for over twenty years how Scottie is one of the most underrated superstars I've seen in any sport. Like his entire career gets downgraded all because he played with Mike and that's not fair.
How can he be overrated when he played on the dream team and was named top 50 greatest player over Dominique,Bernard King etc?
@@glenroybrathwaite1531 Because there's still fans and even his own peers who would discredit him and think all of his accomplishments were because he played with Jordan. Like he didn't put in the work to be great.
Good video on Scottie. Been a rookie few years. I honestly think he was a top 5 player 10 years in the league and top 3 5 of those years. My favorite player.
1st 3peat Hakeem, Robinson, Barkley, Malone, Ewing, Drexler/Wilkins/Magic/Bird; 2nd 3peat Hakeem, Shaq, Malone, Robinson, Payton/Hill/Ewing/Miller
Pippen wasn't even a top 10 player in the league for 10 yrs let alone top 5. Pippen was never a top 5 player in the league either.
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 Scottie in the 90s was 100% a top ten player,and sometimes top five. People need to give him his due and remember that he was a superstar and the second best two way wing player in the 90s.
@@dakliq420 Pippen is definitely top ten for the 90s but that doesn't mean he was a top ten player yr in & yr out in the 90s.
This dude is trying to claim from 90-99 that Pippen was a top 5 player in the league and that just insane. Hakeem, Malone, Robinson, Barkley, Shaq, Ewing, Drexler/Pippen
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 Maybe not 90-99,but majority of those years? Absolutely. I would even say from 92-98 he was easily top ten. Top five I would say 93 with a argument with 95-96. While the others I can see why people would put them over Pip,I can't see Drexler as better. Other than scoring, Scottie is a better passer and defender.
@@dakliq420 I would say top 10-15 from 92-98. Imo Pippen was never top 5, I think his best yrs for top 5 was 94 & 95 but I would still take Hakeem, Robinson, Shaq, Malone, Ewing and Barkley over Pippen.
Drexler was the better score, shooter, passer and playmaker while also being a above avg defender. Drexler led the Blazers to two Finals and the best record in the league from 90-92, he also showed he could excel at the Pippen role in Houston.
If you haven't done Tracy McGrady or maybe Ray allen, those should be fun.
McGrady been done mate check it out
McGrady?! NO!
@@garethfraser7748 I'm about to do it right now
He's a champion! Nuff said.
No there's not enough said. He's the most disrespected super star
Meh. I could say ALOT fckn more. Sasha Kaun is a champion with this reasoning lol
PRIME Scottie would give BRON TROUBLE!
Prime Scottie would turn LeBron's whole game off, and LeBron wouldn't be able to defend him either.
When Mike retired Scottie lead that Chicago Bulls team to the playoffs and was BALLING and I think people forget that. I’ll never forget him wearing Jordan’s and pointing to his shoes and pointing to the camera and telling him to come back. It was all about winning for Pippen and people weirdly discredit him for that.
Solid Truth!
Maybe some truth to that, but I remember that moment vividly, it's imprinted in my memory forever. Me as others millions of fans throughout the world where praying for MJ to listen to that call...
MJ always gave Scottie his flowers
Yes, that’s why I don’t understand why people say that the Last Dance was negative of Pippen. Sure it showed his “headache” in 1990 ECF and that time he refused to go in the game but it also showed when Jordan said, “whenever someone says Michael Jordan, they should also say Scottie Pippen.” If that’s not the ultimate compliment, I don’t know what is…Pippen destroyed his relationship with Jordan over nothing…I can’t believe he was jealous of Jordan all these years 😶
@@seancrowley3142 Jordan gives Scottie his props…it’s Jordan’s fans who don’t.
I watched the Chicago bulls every game in pippen & jordan era live and on VCR after where inside & out the very best duo in nba history offensively & defensively topnotch incredible!
MJ was calling Scotty selfish because he delayed his surgery so that he can miss the first few games of the regular season. That was his way to fight Chicago’s management team. All MJ wants was winning, so he was calling Scotty selfish in that regard. He never says Scotty is a selfish player. Everyone should watch the whole documentary instead of just a couple of words
Jordan was upset because he had to play without his sidekick,and it took something out of him physically.
@@markbantz9699 That’s right. But from Scotty’s perspective, he only makes 1/10 of what MJ was making. He was trying to get back to Jerry, not MJ. However, putting MJ calling Scotty selfish showing how badly MJ wants to win and how important Scotty was to the Bulls and how bad that Chicago management was! No wonder they never won again after MJ retired
Thanks man! Pippen deserves his flowers
I felt like MJ wasn’t saying Scottie was selfish as his career but was selfish in the 98 season
93-94 "This was the first season without All-Star guard Michael ... Pippen averaged 22.0 points, 8.7 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 2.9 steals per game, and was named to the All-NBA First Team, and NBA All-Defensive First Team"
Scottie’s length with his direct and help perimeter defense contributed mightily to keeping opposing wings and guards at bay.
I was born in 85 and became obsessed with the Bulls when I was 4, so from 89-98 I watched EVERY game that I could! Being alive during that Era of basketball was magical, the bulls were truly a team to behold. I think Pippen gets respected by those who played with and watched him play, but unfortunately, and especially since the last dance, it's all been about MJ, and that's a shame, I still wear my black with red pin Stripes 33 jersey with pride till this day, Jordan I'd the GOAT but Pippen is my favorite player of all time!
As a Bulls fan at that time, Pippen got portrayed as a secondary player, a role player. Looking back on how things REALLY were, what was REALLY going on, he was much, much more than that. If MJ doesn't play for the Bulls, there's still a chance that the Bulls win a title maybe even two simply because of how talented Pippen was regardless of what the media said. Yes, MJ is the GOAT but Scottie was no slouch. His numbers don't lie... He earned those numbers just like every other player no matter how good or mediocre they were/are... And Scottie was anything BUT mediocre
Couldnt have said it better.
I will always say that all the reason we don't call Scottie pippen the goat is because he kept giving Michael Jordan the ball.
Hakeem, Barkley, Ewing, Shaq, Robinson, Malone, Drexler etc that's just the 90s
@Nick Smith NBA Thanks for showing some love to Pip. Even though he said some silly things that were out of line, and out of character. He still deserves respect for all he accomplished with MJ & Bulls. Most people have turned against Pippen, and discrediting his career over the things he said. It's refreshing to see you support him, and maturely look beyond the petty rivalries and comments. Your videos are better than BB Time machine channel, who just slaps together click bait with minimal footage. Your videos are well made, and have good assortment of content.
Mj and Pip was so much fun to watch. It was incredible.
one of the few players who can play PG on offense and PF on defense, an absolute legend of time and space... '94 Bulls and '00 Blazers were top teams... according to NBA writer Sam Smith Pippen could dunk left handed standing out of bounds... v Knicks in '93 playoffs Pippen 2-dribbled dunked from halfcourt... TOP 30 ALL-TIME... fax!!!
Jordan didn't win a chip until pippen. Jordan entered league in 84' and didn't win to 91' when pippen came to bulls in 88'. Jordan left the 94' season and pippen still took bulls to playoffs. Pippen went to Houston and took them to the playoffs the first year then leaving for Portland and they went to playoffs the whole time he was there. He would of won atleast 2 rings there but it was the Era of kobe and Shaq. The lakera knocked portland out 3 years str8 and the first year the series went to 7 in conference finals
Jordan joined a provety franchise in 84-85, Pippen had the luxury of joining a established Playoff team in 87-88 with the best player in the world as Pippen rode the bench. Jordan led the underdog Bulls to the 89-ECF and took the Champs to 6 games with a 2nd yr Pippen and Grant who were still in development.
Houston had Hakeem and Barkley and were in the WCF Finals in 97. Pippen didn't lead them anywhere as Hakeem and Barkley were both better than Pippen in 98-99. Portland was in the WCF the yr before Pippen joined them. R.Walllace was Portland best and most impactful player. Pippen joined established Playoff teams wherever he went.
Some people talk too much, however, Scottie was a man of action. People can run their mouths as much as they want...actions speak louder than words...
Thanks for this bro. Scottie is my favorite player of all time. Dude was a Swiss army knife.
Ayo! Does anybody else love how Reggie Miller is just a huge fan that got to play in the league?
Ummm 😬. Cringe. He is one of the greatest shooters to ever play and is more clutch in close games from 3 than Steph Curry.
Oh I definitely know that.
Hear that people? One of the smartest most unselfish players.
I think people tend to forget that basketball is a team game.
I agree with Mark Price, the media make super stars by marketing players but those who knows basketball knows who the greats are. There were many times I seen Scottie Pippen save a game or series and Jordan got all the credit. One was against Portland. In the fourth quarter while MJ was in foul trouble. Scottie Pippen posted up Clyde Drexler and brought them back from a big deficit. MJ came back in and a course the media talked about MJ. Both of the series against Utah Scottie Pippen played all over the floor. He had Utah player Baron Russell scared to shoot because he was blocking his shots getting steal etc. after the series the Utah players said that Pippen was the difference maker and should have gotten the MVP. The media never gave Scottie Pippen his due.
MJ deserved every fmvp. Pip got his credit
Living in Chicago just about my entire life, I have seen and heard Jordan openly admitting in an interviews, after games, how important the nucleus of the team. Every player plays a role and without those crucial contributions from teammates there would be no championship. It is the reason he took upon himself to play the role of an asshole, to keep everybody in checked lol. Furthermore, Jordan has always looked at Pippen as being the biggest part(well besides him oc lol) of that nucleus for that team to be successful.
So yes, without Pippen Jordan's success would have not been the same.
R.Miller, KJ and R.Lewis were in the same draft class if the Bulls didn't get Pippen.
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 pippen better than all you named.
@@thomaspostman9175 Miller led the Pacers into contenders and took the Knicks, Orlando, Chicago and L.A to 7 and 6 games in the Conf.Finals and Finals. So I think it's a logical conclusion that Jordan and Miller would've had a realistic shot at winning the chip from 89-93 and 95-98.
KJ led the Suns to the WCF in 89 & 90 and made the Finals with Barkley in 93. Again I think it's a logical conclusion that Jordan and KJ would've had a realistic shot at winning the chip from 89-93 and 95-98.
R.Lewis was very similar to Pippen in talent and capabilities and led the Celtics to 4th spot in the East in 92-93 after Bird retired. R.Lewis was similar to Kawhi as well as he got better in the Playoffs.
Love Scottie pippin amazing player. Next do do rodman
Prime pippen is Savage
Nobody can win a title on their own. You always need a number 2.
Scotties playing style is smooth. One of my favorite.
Thank you
This is some beautiful shit you're doing right here, b/c ppl (in general) act basic AF. It was either the HoF speech or the interview with Ahmad Rashad, when MJ said, "whenever they mention MJ they should mention Scottie Pippen." But the 'experts' in the crowd would swear that MJ 'carried' Pippen, even though Pippen's responsibilities were to set up the Offense and ANCHOR the def. & the Bulls won all 6 of those rings with defense.
Thank you.
Jordan definitely carried Pippen in a number of series and when Pippen first came to Chicago. I've seen people say Jordan had to carry the offensive load which he did while also being a all-time defender as well. Pippen played his role like McHale, Worthy, Dumars etc did to win.
Jordan always praised his teammates and said he couldn't win without them which is true for Jordan and his teammates as well as everyone else that has won. That's what great leaders do.
Most experts don't mention Pippen, you can't go to a video on Pippen where they aren't trying to diminish what Jordan did. Pippen is generally properly rated & gets his due imo, especially compared to guys like Worthy, Dumars, McHale etc.
He deserves to be in that top 15!
He's definite a top 15 sf
@NickSmithNBA i hope Scottie watche's this one day and gives you a like an subscribe good job on the vid keep it up
Grant got it right, Pippen was never selfish.
his def is an art
Look, Scottie is an AMAZING player and deserves a LOT of credit for his skills on the court, but these days I can’t help but think how he’s tarnishing his past with his current actions. He has NEVER had an ego but I think that lack of one is coming out now and he’s going after people he KNOWS, deep down, he shouldn’t. He will always be my favorite player of all time. No joke I have a small shrine of his jerseys, figures, cards, tickets, programs, etc. I loved the player and the man seemed to be exemplary. I want to remember that more than any current issues he’s having.
One of my all time favorite players Thanks man , Keep on
Great tribute 👍👍
Great video great job showing pippens greatness without pippen Jordan would have still been great but I bet he wouldn't have had 6 championships
One thing I liked about Scottie is he never makes mistakes on those big moments
I agree Scottie is underrated. I agree with how great he is. I have him top 10 not at 21. But to say that MJ would never have won without him? There's never been another player that could have helped him? We're talking about the greatest player that has ever played the game. Just because Scottie was there for all six doesn't mean it wouldn't have happened without him.
it wasnt just Scottie...added Phil Jackson and Horace Grant too (first 3peat) ... ppl act like the Bulls got Pip and everything switched...NO.
Acting like he wasn there when they were failing to win championships
ppl act like MJ dont always recognize and speak to the IMPORTANCE of SCOTTIE PIPPEN! ...He did some selfish things... MJ says that he needed SCOTTIE... these guys are thinking with EMOTION!!!
Scottie Pippen will always be the greatest underrated player of all time ! He deserves better ! It's time!
How is pip underrated? If he didn't play with MJ do you think he reaches the same heights individually, team wise or legacy wise?
As we say in my hood 50 Great nuff said
Loved your series since CZcams recommended some of the first ones.
I know you need big names to get more subscribers, but you should try some internationals, Dirk, Tony Parker could get you more international subscribers haha.
Otherwise rodman could be a good one considering how many stories exist, George Mikhan, big O, and the Dream, the dream needs more love haha
That fuckin dunk bruh. It never get old
Scottie was on the original Dream Team. That’s recognition if I ever saw it
As a DIE HARD Bulls fan.. this was a work of Art my boy. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I agree with it about what was said about pipen he was under rated by far
Great video !!!!
as a bulls fans I don't see why I have to pick between MJ and pip, they are both my hero
Phil Jackson said that Pippen was the best player in the league including Jordan. I'll agree with that.
I'ma tell yall how great Scottie Pippen was He was the Tmac, LeBron, KD so you gotta respect Scottie I would take Scottie over all them to me Scottie is the best SF hands down..
Best thumbnail ever 🤣 that will get everyone to click on it for different reasons lmao
I have always 🥰 ved Pip. I watched MJ, Kobe and LeBron play in person plus Pippen and Rodman. Pip is one of the greatest ever. I just hate that he is remembered for some negative things. I have great respect for him
Still hard to accept that Kobe is gone
Jordan was like Bruce Lee and Pip was like Jim Kelly in Enter the dragon. You knew he could have also been the hero.
So much of this has to do with your personal view of Scottie. I've only ever heard of Michael Jordan and how important Scottie was for him, the team, the championships, so I don't feel like he's underrated, I mean you see his dominance in these clip, no ones stopping that
If I’m building an all time roster, and I get to draft MJ, I almost can’t see the small forward on that team as anyone other than Pip. There wasn’t a PG in the 90s who didn’t fear the Bulls. Those 2 together changed how perimeter defense is played.
Curry, MJ, Kawhi, Bird, Hakeem
@@sideshowbobsaget8876 Kawhi 😆
That proves that as great as Jordan is, unless he has someone as versatile as Scottie, his talent doesn’t translate to championships.
This is why when people say they’re starting a franchise with Jordan, it’s ridiculous because unless you have a Scottie and reputable big, you likely won’t see any championship success.
With LeBron however, he’s much more versatile and when you combine his size it allows you to compensate and not need as much as you’d need with Jordan.
@@mobetta2092 LMAO Jordan is winning more than 4 chips in LeBron's position. Wade & AD are both better than Pippen. 11-Wade, 20-AD and 16-Kyrie all put up better Playoff and Final runs than any version of Pippen
@@a100percentReal As a starting 5 yeah I have Kawhi as my SF. It would be 16-Curry, 91-Jordan, 16-Kawhi, 85-Bird, 93-Hakeem.
Kawhi would be a great fit on this team with his defense and his ability to make 3s and the mid-range. My team has no weaknesses
Shawn Kemp highlights, you haven't done anything on this athletic power forward that terrorized the NBA in the 90's as a teenager
I knew Scottie was awesome but watching him play after MJ left I was stoked.
Scottie should be Top 10...
He is a top 10 sf
about DARN time ... Pip got some SHINE! ...
My favorite nba player ever! Loved his game and patterned my game after him.........I'm 6' 3" and built like a linebacker but I always worked to be like scottie.......thank you for the wonderful memories Pip........you belong on the list with all the legends.
P.S. how did scottie never win a defensive player of the year? Or an mvp? Trust me kids.....he was THAT good! Love ya Scottie.
Agree,,cheers to Scotty'
Scottie was a freakin beast! To hell with what Jordan said.
