Breh, are you talking about George? George was the first person Mike met in Chicago. In one of his old videos, he told the story of how they met. When Mike first got to Chicago, the bulls were supposed to send a limo for Mike to the airport. The limo never came, and George, who was a limo driver, his customer didn't come, so he asked mike if he needed a lift. Been friends ever since.

Edit:

Here's the video. 29:18 mark


Take this rep. :obama:

Thanks for posting the video. Will watch it later.

On Twitter recently, I’ve seen many kids criticizing Jordan’s competition. I’ve even seen people say that Jordan was playing against plumbers and mailmen, which is crazy. :laff::laff: I thought this only thecoli thing.

SB: I always say this: He averaged 30-to-38 points back then. That means if you put MJ in this era today – with no physicality, no one really trying to block shots because they’re worried about being put on ESPN, the friendships that everybody has (so no one’s gonna go back at each other) – he would average 45 points. And I talk about teams like Houston. Last year, they were one of the top seeds in the West and they played no defense. Imagine if MJ played in this era when the Bulls did play defense and he was still as great as he was offensively. That’s what I say to people. It’s different eras, but three-pointers are what people live by now. I prefer the old school, for sure.

Breh it’s gotten so bad they even calling early 2000s players “plumbers” when MJ wizards days gets brought up. Twitter/Instagram and some white dude who’s a popular Lebron stan is where this started from

'He was beloved by everybody': How Scottie Pippen lifted Jordan and the Bulls

Brehs check this piece on Scottie by Zach Lowe

:wow:

Dude was a great teammate, always supportive, and everyone really had love for him and still do.

Deserves its own thread to be honest.

One poster posted an article a couple hundred pages ago that Pippen doesn’t like how he’s being displayed. I get where he’s coming from. Sucks they’re not publicizing how much his teammates liked Pip.

Most of the Bulls have said that throughout the years. Basically they were good cop/bad cop. Jordan was the dictator while Pippen was the shoulder they all leaned on who would lift them up with his words after MJ tore them down basically.

Jordan would have never average 45 points in this era. It's not easy for a 6'6 guard to score that many points in today league. The defensive schemes in this era is far superior than it was in the 90s. The Houston Rockets were one of the best defensive team in the league in 2017-2019. We can appreciate Mike greatness without the exaggeration.

James harden, 6'5", averaged 36 ppg against the far superior defensive schemes of today:mjlol:. What do you think jordan would average?

Players guard harden with their arms behind their back because you can't touch him but it's superior defensive schemes :laff:

I believe in Jordan being successful in this era but I don’t believe the case would be the same for Pippen. Pippen seemed soft and emotional. Like KD type emotional. Dude cracked and had weak moment every season he didn’t play with Jordan. From the migraine game, to the refusal to stay in the game for the last possession against New York, to fukking up against La and turning over the call against Kobe In crunch time and blaming Charles for his fukk up.

Kobe was slicing that nigguh up before his prime in back to back to back postseasons three years in a row. Same with tmac. I don’t think he would been a top5 player in the Kobe tmac era. He’s Not Lebron Either.
