Pippen vs 88-90 Pistons: 12 on 42%... name a better reason for bulls losses those yrs
then pippen had to cut his teeth AGAIN vs another physical team - the 90's Knicks - he nearly caused loss in the 92' ECSF by getting bullied and outplayed by X-man
(16 on 40% for Pippen.... 19 on 50% for X-man.. and mj had to save pippen from getting rattled in Game 7, shown here

Why did MJ decide to quit on his team before tipoff of game 5 in 1989 against Detroit?
Bulls down by 1 going into the 4th quarter.... MJ makes zero effort to win the game.
Why is it he quit?

losing the game you were already behind in is quitting?
so what was lebron doing when he lost fourth quarter leads in games 2-4 against the 07' Spurs, or games 1 and 3 against the 18' Warriors?
Also, MJ talked about saving Pippen from X-man:
"I had to talk trash to the bully so everyone (Pippen) could gain confidence"
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_qvEmm-sZbU&t=27m49s
lebron never had to do that for Wade, Kyrie, Bosh or Love because they were already veteran superstars, not young players and wet behind the ears like Pippen
pippen was scared of physical teams like the Pistons and Knicks, so he played like dogshit the first few times against each of them

He decided to quit before tip-off. His biggest postseason game to date, 46MP and only 8 total FGA. Down by 1 going into the 4th, yet continued to leave his teammates hanging.

A win would have put em up 3-2 heading HOME against the defending EC champs. Absolute quite job from the "GOAT"

he only made 6 because he won organically
he had a team of rookies in 88' and 89' with zero accolades, while 07-10' Lebron had a team of vets with numerous all-star and all-defense players (Mo, Zydrunas, Jamison... Hughes/Varejao all-defense).
again, mj had an accolade-less team of rookies that he built into champions
Jordan.... 1 all-star teammate = 6 rings
Kareem... 9 all-star teammate = 6 rings
Lebron.... 6 all-star teammate = 3 rings

MJ had an all star teammate only 1 year?
Idiot
MJ had more help, weak rings, and his stats suck compared to LBJ. #NotMyGoat

.
thread cliffs:
no one would've heard of the Pistons if MJ had anyone else except Pippen from 88-90' - only pippen couldn't win with the best help ever, a 35/6/6/dpoy/mvp

damn, pippen sucked balls huh...
imagine if MJ had reggie's 21 ppg on 142 ORTG that he put up in his first playoffs. That's an easy ring.
why was pippen so bad at scoring?

pippen hated physical teams like th Pistons, Knicks, 96' Sonic's, 98' Pacers, 97' heat, etc
otoh, Miller thrived against the Knicks and other tough teams
Miller was clutch and was more mature than pippen
pippeen couldn't shoot and had a basic handle.. his points were "in the flow", so nothing in the clutch
