Probably one of the most forthcoming interviews I've ever watched involving a player on the trading block. Scottie just got right down to it. Seems we were pretty close to history working out a lot differently.

So, Jordan almost ended his career with 3 rings. He was damn lucky that Pippen didn't change team.

at this lame attempt to diminish Pippen's leadership (without any evidence being presented--as usual. Any guesses as to why trolls can't produce any evidence of Pippen NOT being a key leader? ) because he was liked by his teammates. Most leaders are liked by their followers. 
History sure would have been different if Pippen went to Phoenix or Seattle in 95'.Last edited by Roundball_Rock; 08-07-2014 at 08:42 AM.

Without Pippen staying, Jordan might not have returned either. Or if he did, unlikely he wins another 3 rings. It's actually a pretty pivotal moment.

With a system in place (triangle), the Bulls just need a versatile defender that can feed MJ. Originally Posted by LeBird

Now I know what some are gonna say "

But remember..... MJ is back, so Pip's duties fall back to playing the wingman. Pip was basically out for half the season at one point. Have somebody that's a good defenders like Augmon, or versatile player like Obannon playing with MJ and they have a legit chance of winning it. That player's role would be to defend and give MJ the ball. Score when left open and facilitate when MJ is gone. Augmon would've fit right in playing with MJ. He was already his team's best defender and capable of dropping 30. Put any of those players with MJ and they automatically get easier offensive opportunities and become better defenders.
