Interesting. Shame he wasn't the type of player who could average 27ppg in a finals series and hit title winning shots.

I love me some Pip, great sidekick to the GOAT but he really didn't have the clutch gene, even PJ realized it, he would draw up plays for Kukoc instead of Pip in late game situations when the GOAT was out shagging fly balls.

The Indiana series in 98 pissed me off. 3 separate 6-18 shooting games (yes, you read that right) and a 1-9(?) game. Choked the free throws in game 4 which cost the Bulls the game and caused the series to go from 5 games to 7. I don't blame him for the 1-9, 2 point game in game 7 against Detroit and thought he was a great sidekick overall.
But boy, when Jordan got tired and needed some help with the slack, there were quite a few moments when Pippen just disappointed.

Not an offensive threat

Virtually never doubled

A "flow" player; not a player that can force the action and disrupt a defense

Can't shoot worth a lick; bad for spacing

Some really bad D in this game. Denver was awful that year (24th ranked D).

Pippen to me was never really the same after the slew of injuries he suffered late in the '96 regular season. Went on to have a really mediocre postseason, had surgery in the offseason and simply wasn't the same athlete anymore. Still an All Star in '97, but his prime ended the 1996 regular season.

That may have been it. I always thought that he was a shell of himself during the 2nd 3peat title run. But he was still decent in 1996. As his back kept deteriorating, he regressed further and further. By the 98 playoffs, he wasn't the same Pippen.

You’re absolutely SHOOK rn. Pippen is a legend deal with it.


He's Jimmy Butler without MJ

MJ won 6 rings including 2 three-peats with a Jimmy Butler-level player... :bowdown: :bowdown:

You'll claim that Pippen was a better defender ...... Barely... And Butler is much better offensively

So again, MJ won 6 rings including 2 three-peats with a Jimmy Butler-level player... :bowdown: :bowdown: ... Next

Pip benefited from playing alongside MJ (and vice versa), but he was never that great at creating his own shot in the half court game. Great on the break, one of the best above the rim finishers.

Like I said and you also mention it in your post, in late game situations, Pip wasn't that great, Kukoc was more reliable.

He absolutely is. Just watch a '97 or '98 playoff game and follow it up with something pre-1996. Just a huge difference in athleticism and motor. Pippen's game was primarily based around his athleticism. With that diminished his numbers are noticeably down in the playoffs during the 2nd 3peat and the Bulls' offense is a struggle for much of those runs.

First of all, Jimmy Butler is incredible.

Secondly, when did Jimmy Butler accomplish what Pippen did in 1994?

Bulls with MJ as the leader=57 wins

Bulls with Pippen as the leader=55 wins

Looks like MJ was only worth two wins more than Pip :(

Every goat-level player (MJ, Kobe, Bird, Magic, Shaq, Duncan, etc, etc, etc) gets to play with a player of Pippen's caliber

So I don't think MJ "benefitted" from playing with Pippen considering he would get an equal or better player if he played his career over again.. if MJ played his career 100 times, he would play with 100 players of Pip's caliber, and often better

Otoh, the raw, scrawny Pippen benefitted from MJ much more... MJ entered the league as a 28/5/5 player, but there's no guarantee the 7 ppg Pippen would develop the way he did elsewhere... i.e. if the Lakers drafted him, he'd be buried on their bench and wouldn't have seen the light of day (let alone get side-by-side tuteledge from the goat every day)

That's not what I meant - I meant that if Pippen had another superstar to help him out, he becomes 2nd option, like he was with Mike

And I laugh at people who say the bulls could've won with say, Mitch Richmond and Pippen - the Bulls needed scoring champion production from their #1 option to win it all, and MJ is the only scoring champ to win a ring in the same year (6 times)...

Actually, Kareem and Shaq did it once each in their peak seasons of 71' and 00', so I guess peak Kareem or Shaq could win with Pippen too... :rolleyes:
How do you know Pippen would become second option? He did pretty damn great as first option. Give Pippen, say, Paul Millsap, I bet he wins a ring that year. You’re just furious Pippen arguably had as much or more impact than your hero (don’t make me post their BPMs during the second 3peat playoffs and expose MJ further :eek:)

Look son, I really do feel bad that you youngsters didn't get to see the GOAT in real time, you didn't get to feel the electricity of witnessing his performances, that you just grew up knowing MJ is the GOAT without actually living the moments that have made him the consensus GOAT. You guys trying to tear MJ just look dumb to the rest of us fans who've watched the game longer than y'all...stop it for your sakes, man.

Jimmy doesn't have the tools to be the defender Pippen was. Butler has a negative wingspan to body length. Pippen was every bit as quick and athletic as Butler while being stronger and having an enormous 7 inch standing reach advantage. Butler is a very good defender, Pippen was an elite defender. The difference goes beyond "barely"

played on stacked squads but was a) never even close to being a first option b) never won shit.

No he wouldn't have. Millsap doesn't solve the issue that cost the Bulls the 94 series against the Knicks, which is a scorer capable of breaking the gridlock of two top ranked defenses going at it. Pippen wasn't a gifted enough offensive talent to just give him the ball and say 'get me a basket'....not against that kind of defense.

I'm inclined to think you don't believe a good portion of what you're saying anyways, because just randomly picking out Paul Millsaps name as if he would have been of any consequence that series is hilarious.

The "debate" is only pushed by Bran stans, anyone else who is unbiased say it's MJ or even KAJ, as he is really the other worthy of GOAT status.

Go check out NBA experts GOAT lists and NBA fans polls, MJ wins those handily, even amongst younger fans :oldlol: Ranker breaks it down by age, LeBron does the best with younger fans but still a majority of younger fans pick MJ over LeBron...nice try :cheers:

Another point, we don't belittle LeBron out of insecurity bruh, we bash on him because Bran stans have no other recourse but to tear down MJ's legacy because without any other narratives, LeBron comes up short. Just on ISH first page you have idiots making threads about how embarrassing MJ's rings are, as if that's actually a thing :lol Other threads claiming he had stacked teams, that he played against unathletic white guys, that his competition sucked etc etc. All are agenda driven by insecure Bran stans, all we do is shit on LeBron in response :confusedshrug: and believe me, dude has provided us with a ton of material in which to bash his career :roll:

Lebron bashing sounds and flows so perfect because it's valid.. so it strikes that cord when you hear it or read it because that's what the truth does

career high

broke 40 twice

had trouble getting 20 most nights

that's with MJ's game helping to pull the defense away from Pippen in the triangle

inconsistent jump shot at times

scored more on raw athleticism than game some of the time

Pippen's world famous but he's not all-world

had that sick finger roll though about as good as Gervin's

tell me when to stop

Many forget that Pippen had one of the most deadly full open court (and some times coast to coast) finishes. When he was healthy he was a fine penetrator aswell (not in MJ's level ofcourse but still great). He was the best timing passing forward in the 90's, a good scorer (Not great ofcourse), solid rebounder, great finisher, good penetrator and ofcourse was INSANE in DEFENSE. What he did in 93-94 was as good as any superstar in the 90's. He just lived in the shadow of the best player ever which diminished his numbers.

Anyone who actually saw Pippen play knows his limitations.

But we're talking to people who never saw him play live for entire countless games.

Just give him more offensive touches he would definitely average 24-26 ppg in today's NBA. Jordan averaged 27 attempts per game.

Jackson took Pip out the game because it wasn't close. He should have let him go for 50!

That is because you are an ignoramus who contributes 0 to basketball discussion. It is not "hysterical" to note Jackson should have kept Pippen in--that is what fans in the stadium felt. If you actually had knowledge--or the basic intelligence to defer to your superiors--you would understand that.

I know you are just saying this because are butthurt by the truth but thanks for the basketball insight anyway.

Oh, and ignoramus is someone who loves to flood into mj, pippen and other related threads while talking about the same crap all the time.

Yup, another kudos for describing yourself with the said word..

Anyway, anyone who was alive back then knows the sentiment among the crowd in the stadium was that Jackson should have let Pippen stay in the game and go for 50. Ignoramuses who have never watched a basketball game (yet post on a basketball forum without a single basketball discussion contribution :lol ) wouldn't understand it but the crowd at the game did.

Oh please drop the act. I didn't even attempt to debunk nor disagree to this statement of yours below.

Yet you're being paranoid and attempt to derail the topic by assuming i did after i had to point out the obvious about you.

Yup. Just keep them comin', 'ignoramus'. 🙃

A simple factual statement about the game. "Hysterical" to the ignoramus who posts on a basketball forum but never posts about basketball.

That is what an ignoramus who posts on a basketball forum without ever posting basketball does. Those of us who actually discuss basketball can understand how basketball discussion goes.

Those of us who have knowledge have an obligation to share it with others. You wouldn't understand. Zero knowledge and too dumb to understand that you should defer to those who do have it. Why are you even in this thread? You have no knowledge. No interest in the game. Just trolling.

Useless as a rock. Unfortunately, I had to respond to your trolling thanks to a few glasses of wine (most trolls are on the ignore list). :lol
