Opposing SF's lauding Pippen's D?? Pippen playing above a Marion or George level?

Are there any examples of either of these things?

I remember when Paul George was called "Pandemic P" for averaging PEAK pippen stats of 22 ppg on 45% in a series... So MJ won 6 titles with worse than Pandemic P caliber, since Pippen had the worst efficiency ever on numerous runs - he was the biggest lane-clogger ever that forced MJ to overcome packed paints and defeat max defensive attention (carry scoring load).
.

Why did the bulls only finish with 2 less wins in the 94 season after MJ retired? Paul George at his absolute peak was close to pippen ill give you that. But that was paul george for 1 year....1 year was he close to prime pippen (which lasted multiple years).


How can someone who was carried lead the team to the same amount of wins pretty much?

How can someone who was carried lead the team in every major statiscal category after mj retired. Carried people dont do that. Mo Williams didnt do that.

Paul George held Lebron to 22.8 PPG in the 14' Finals, while there are zero examples of Pippen locking anyone down as the primary defender - every opposing SF destroyed Pippen, so his defense is incredibly overrated... The issue is that the media couldn't compliment his offense, so they got good at complimenting his defense.. So when you say that George "got close" to Pippen - you're lying - George was equal defensively and FAR SUPERIOR offensively - Pippen was a [U]joke[/U] offensively compared to George, while the defense is a wash (I prefer George because Pippen everyone destroyed Pippen and scored on Pippen at will)

When Jordan suddenly retired right before the season, the Bulls instantly became the biggest letdown game of all-time.

But once opponents woke up in the playoffs and following season, the Bulls were 2nd Round losers and barely .500 in 95.

Pippen was never considered a franchise player that is tasked with building a lottery team from scratch.. He was simply handed a fully-developed goat dynasty, which he cratered to barely .500 in less than 18 months.
