View Full Version : Remember when bum JR Smith matched prime Pippen's stats in 15' ECF?... 18/8 on 66% ts

That's because prime Pippen stats are nothing and most bums match them like 05' Larry Hughes or JR Smith.. heck, Bosh played better in the 11' ECF than pippen ever did.
So anyone can match pippen's 19/6 on bad efficiency whereas it's basically impossible for a sidekick to match the towering playoff performances of AD, Kyrie or Wade..
pippen was worse than Paul George - no one would dream of giving Pippen the max and GM's held out on bum pippen - Jordan carried this bum to 6 rings by scoring 15 ppg more than him with more assists

The stats say pippen is a borderline top 100 player - PER, WS/48, peak VORP, OBPM, efficiency - they all say he's maybe a top 120 player all-time
So why do we ignore these stats for pippen that we use to rank every other player?... :whatever:

Pip wasnt amazing offensively. Only mj haters would argue that. It's on the other side of the ball where pip was elite. Combine that with mj defensively and together they were a terror. Both sides kind have twisted. Pip didn't carry mj and mj didn't carry pip. They just complimented each other perfectly.
I remember when Pippen won more playoff games without MJ in one series alone in '94 than MJ won in five seasons without Pippen.

Jordan doubled pippen's playoff scoring average - that's the definition of carrying
Heck, Robert Horry averaged 18/10 on great efficiency in the 94' Finals, aka Pippen-level - Jordan won 6 rings with peak JR Smith and Robert Horry performances - that's the level pippen was on
And Pippen's defense doesn't offset his weak offense - if he was a bill russell-level defender, then the bulls would've had the #1 defense.. but instead, they had the #7 defense during the first three-peat, so every ECF and Finals opponent had a better defense (except 92' Cavs and 93' Suns)
The stats say pippen is a borderline top 100 player - PER, WS/48, peak VORP, OBPM, efficiency - they all say he's maybe a top 120 player all-time

Did Jordan ever sweep a 60 win team with JR?
Jordan beat the #1 SRS with pippen getting 15 on 40%, so he would destroy the #3 Hawks with JR at 18 on 67% ts
JR played better than pippen ever did in that series - 18/8 on 67% ts is better offense than pippen ever achieved
Did Jordan ever sweep a 60 win team with JR?
JR Smith in 15' ECF............. 18/8
Robert Horry in 94' Finals.... 18/10
^^^^ that's Pippen level production
So Jordan would win more with bigger-producing sidekicks than JR Smith or Robert Horry level guys - he'd win more with bigger-producers like AD, Wade or Kyrie that have higher PER, WS/48, VORP, OBPM and efficiency than Pippen

Uh..ya LeElevate. Meanwhile Pippen was being held back by MJ. Once MJ Left he had a spectacular season. Of course Stern was no longer rigging games for them so they couldn't win. In fact they were doing a little too well that Stern had to make some phone calls to force Pippen to sit.

Pippen had a 55-win season like Marc Gasol in memphis, Lowry in Toronto - basically everyone - it's nothing.. So Jordan won 6 with a Marc Gasol or Lowry-caliber player (a top 120 all-time player, according to career PER, WS/48, peak VORP, OBPM, and efficiency).. lebron had 3-4 teammates with better PER, BPM, WS/48 and VORP than Pippen (AD, Wade, Kyrie, Love)

So why couldn't Jordan do it himself without Pippen?
Still zero answer to this question.
Easiest thing in the world to do, win 55 games. Except when Jordan tries to do it. Kyle Lowry did it without Kawhi, Jordan couldn't without Pippen.
No pip, no chip. No pip no 55 wins.

So why couldn't Jordan win 55 without Pippen?
Same reason lebron couldn't win 55 in 04' or 19' - those were 20-win teams the prior year and the worst teams of his career
However, lebron avoided the playoffs with his worst teams (04' and 19'), while Jordan was forced to carry his worst teams against the goat Celtics (86' and 87')

12-18-2020, 03:33 PM
Then Jordan isn't the GOAT if he can't win 55 games without Pippen. LeBron won 66 games with a early 80s Jordan level cast in 2009 and 62 games in 2010 with a 20 win team without him (2011 Cavs won 15 games).
Even Lowry could do it without Kawhi.
Marc Gasol did it.
Jordan didn't. Never did it in his career.

LeBron won 66 games with a early 80s Jordan level cast
09/10 Lebron had the best cast in the conference, and many 1-star teams won the 00's East
Whereas Jordan had the worst cast in the 80's East, and a super-team was required to win it
Night and day
And lebron's top-seeded favorites from 09/10 included 2x all-stars Jamison/Zydrunas, all-star Mo Williams, all-defender Varejao, the COY, and a top 5 defense.. Jordan's 80's casts had nothing and compare to lebron's 04' cast

The 11' Cavs lost their entire starting 5, not just lebron
They lost Mo, Zydrunas, Shaq, Delonte and Varejao, which was 52 ppg combined and therefore bigger impact that lebron's 30 ppg

"But Ingram was barely an all-star!"
20' Ingram..'..... 18.8 PER.. 2.4 BPM.. 0.115 WS/48.. 2.2 VORP
90' Pippen.....'.. 16.3 PER.. 1.8 BPM.. 0.087 WS/48.. 3.0 VORP
05' L Hughes.... 21.6 PER.. 4.3 BPM.. 0.157 WS/48.. 3.7 VORP
90' Pippen.....'.. 16.3 PER.. 1.8 BPM.. 0.087 WS/48.. 3.0 VORP
09' Mo Will...'.... 17.2 PER.. 2.3 BPM.. 0.165 WS/48.. 3.1 VORP
90' Pippen.....'.. 16.3 PER.. 1.8 BPM.. 0.087 WS/48.. 3.0 VORP
And Pippen wasn't an all-star in 91'
Ultimately, Pippen has lower career BPM, PER, and WS/48 than Wade/AD/Kyrie - so lebron had 3 teammates that were bigger producers, but zero #1 offenses (mj had 4)...
and 90' Pippen was lower stats across the board than 20' Ingram, 05' Hughes, or 09' Mo
That's the statistical record (no opinion)

I'm not trying to "convince" anyone because they aren't opinions
I'm informing you of the stats and facts that you obviously weren't aware of previously
You're the idiot for thinking pippen was better than Ingram or 05' Hughes - he wasn't and the stats show he was actually worse - mj was just GOAT - deal with it without bitching

God help us all
statistical realities for Bron fans regarding pippen
* AD, Wade and Kyrie have higher production rate than Pippen across the board (PER, BPM, WS/48), yet lebron had zero #1 offenses in 17 years, versus 4 for MJ.. That statistically proves that MJ played basketball a better way (employed the superior style)
* Prime Wade, AD, and Kyrie are untouchable by regular players, whereas Pippen was matched by bums like Horry (94' Finals), JR Smith (15' ECF), and Hughes (05')... because pippen's stats are ordinary - Jordan won 6 rings with a guy that got Shawn Marion stats, or a typical paul george series, or peak JR Smith/Robert Horry (see thread title)
