Imagine you kicking or asking a company that hired you for your services to kick money down to your co worker that does less than you and gets paid less than you(everyone involved in the last dance got paid one way or the other, Pippen got appearances and is writing a damn book off the last dance). Every grown ass man is responsible for securing their own bag no matter what their tax bracket is. Pippen is a grown up and I’m sure he has professional people that handles the use of his image and likeness, that team fumbled the bag.


A company that hired you? lol.. you acting like MJ was just some hired hand in the doc. There IS no doc without him. To act like he couldn't put in a word to hook up his teammate he rode to 6 titles with is crazy.

Pip had no leverage.. the doc was gonna go on with or without him

Their not his “people”. They are grown ass men. Its not his job to get them money just like it wasn’t his job to negotiate any of their contracts during their playing days


No it's not his job nor does he have any obligation to do so but it's something he COULD and IMO SHOULD do out of respect/solidarity with Pip of all ppl, because he don't have 6 rings without him, point blank period.

The entire documentary does not happen without Jordan, period. Literally doesn't happen because he had to approve it. So given that he could have very easily said "let's get Pip some money" and of course the producers would have done it because they want the doc to be released.

THE DOC DEFINITELY WASNT
GONNA HAPPEN WITHOUT PIP.

IF HE ASKED FOR SOME GUAP
HE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN PAID
BUT HE PROBABLY WAS WORKING
FOR ESPN WHEN HE FILMED IT ANYWAY
SO HE DIDNT WANNA STEP ON ANY TOES.

A TEAM ANYWHERE WITHOUT
OTHER HOFS.

I'm not about to get into a debate about Parker and Butler bottomline Bron has faced the weaker opposition when it comes to who was the best player on the opposing team.

Obviously would not have been the same w/o Pip, whether they could have worked around it or not, who knows. But once MJ signed off on producing it I don't think they were gonna stop production for anything. They were trying for years to get MJ to agree.

Pip should have played hard ball... maybe he did or tried, I don't know what the internal convos were. Maybe he didn't know anyone was getting paid then realized after that MJ did. Just not sure.

That's true he was working for ESPN at the time so maybe that played a factor.

Pip should have said something (if he didn't).. MJ should also know how Pip is and has to know he was gonna feel some type of way once he finds out he got nothing. He spent more time around this man than his own family. Again he has no OBLIGATION to do so but it's something he easily had the power to do.
