Pippen's passing and footwork were underrated

[Foxmulder]

Anybody that watched during that time could see Jordan and Pippen were almost equal....


that's why it was so hard to beat them.....One or the other was going to beat you.


Jordan just had that nack for hitting "that" shot that would win the game to put him over the top...

It's funny how people ignore the 95 season
the bulls were not contenders they were
34-31 without Jordan, Mj comes back after a year in a half of rust and they finish the season on a 13-4 run pip was great but people have been overrating the fukk out of him lately enough with that Jordan never won without him shyt while Jordan was dropping forty and getting busy on both ends pippen was choking and talking bout his migraines hurt, mj was ready from day one it just took pip and grant stepping their games up to finally get over the hump....when it comes to small forwards pip is in the 5-10 range

6-9 are interchangeable

1) bron
2) bird
3) Kd
4) Dr j
5) Rick Barry
6) Hondo
7) Baylor
8) Nique
9) Pip

Did you even see of those guys play? How can you make a list of top SFs if you never watched half of them play?

In terms of players I've seen play, Pippen is right there with LeBron as the top SF of all-time. KD is third. And out of respect I put Grant Hill 4th eventhough Grant Hill could be as high as #2.

Swag's All-Time SF Rankings (limited to those I've seen play):
1. LeBron/Pippen
2. Pippen/LeBron
3. Durant
4. Grant Hill

Watched as much dr j as I could and as far as Baylor hondo and Barry go I was strictly judging from their accolades dominance and consistency I've only been able to watch a handful of each of their careers I judged them the same way people judge Russell, wilt and oscar...Did you not see bird play? Because in my opinion pip can't fukk with bird at all

 

[Swagnificent]

If you watched them play in 96-98 you wouldn't be laughing. It was not that outlandish. During that time, most people were saying Pippen was a top 3 player in the NBA after Jordan and Shaq. Grant Hill was also in that conversation.

Pippen is incredible underrated by kids who never saw him play. He was honestly right there with Jordan during that second 3-peat in terms of impact. Jordan just had a more alpha male personality and was more gifted scoring. In terms of defense, rebounding, and passing, Pippen was the superior player.

Then shut the fukk up. That shyt is meaningless unless you saw them play. And not just highlights but day in day out full games.

We see right now wack player who are not very good get ridiculous accolades and praise they really don't deserve (i.e. Steph Curry and Kevin Love). And we see incredible talented players with crazy impacts get largely ignored (i.e. Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson).

So spare me your bullshyt rankings based on looking up profiles on basketball reference.

Thank you,The duck tales and revisionism was getting ridiculous.

Pippen was almost just as good as Jordan and is interchangeable with LeBron for the number one SF spot

I simply don't rate them. Would be mad disrespectful to say whether they were good or bad. I limit my lists of greatness to guys I've actually watched. That is why my top 4 is Kobe, Jordan, Hakeem, and Shaq.

82 and i've been an NBA Fan since i was a lil kid, and was a huge bulls fan from 89 and on, so don't give me that age bullshyt... I remember watching them get their ass whooped by the Pistons, make it past the lakers and jordan leaving and coming back up to his last shot vs the jazz... I caught alot of their games when i was younger, I was a huge MJ fan before i found out he's a POS in real life
