Pippen really did this twice?

And we have idiots on this forum trying to make asinine arguments about him being one of the 5 best players of his era. ****ing crazy.

He's not even top 10 lol. SF was by far the weakest position of the 90s so he got a lot of accolades by default. Prime Grant Hill was much better though he was injured.

Nikkas really don't realize what a poor playoff performer Pippu was for most of their title runs. At least on offense.

Absolutely. They completely overlook his inefficient scoring ability and try to act as if he was an elite passer & a lockdown defender when a young Kobe busted his ass 4 years in a row in the Playoffs after he left Chicago. Even a 19 y.o Kobe (his 1st year as a starter) outplayed & shut down Pippen (18.3 ppg on 32.7%FG ) & on a team with two other top 20 all-time players in Hakeem & Barkley and we know what happened in 2000 when Pippen had 3 points and 6 fouls in the 2nd half with the worst 4th quarter choke in a Game 7 that we've ever seen with Kobe crossing him over 3 plays in a row that all led to points to cap off the comeback win.

Yeah, completely ignore the other 2 Turned Kobe's airball into a series changing GW, then saved Kobe from a career & legacy altering defeat

Delusional. Lakers should have never let go of Ariza.

If going solely by 1994 where do you rank him?

this is actually entirely caused by kobes presence.. all 5 defenders with their eyes stuck on kobe and their feet glued to the floor

artest just walks in and catches the ball and lays it in without any resistance

True, Kobe with the ultra clutch miss, just like against the Kings in '02 and OKC earlier in those playoffs

He was top in 5 a bunch of metrics in the RS but not a top 5 player in the Playoffs. Horace Grant was better than him in the ECSF and Ewing outplayed him as well.

you mean the series vs the kings where a fan tried to murder kobe by feeding him tainted meat on purpose. he was hooked up to an IV bag before each game
