Richard Jefferson: Giannis is a Scottie Pippen, he needs a Jordan (Scottie Responds)

[Derek Lee]

Scottie bodied RJ

Funny response but RJ wasnt a scrub

Right, but was he on Scottie level?

 

[Silky Johnson]

Coming from a guy who was more Keith Van Horn than Kerry Kittles.

I wished they only let HOF players become analysts. These clout demons are the worst

 

[PortCityProphet]

Whats funny is we all knew it was coming, we were just waiting for it

Smh clown ass statement by RJ. Embodies all the problems with nba media culture.

 

[goatmane]

Klutch sports had RJ talking crazy

The messenger aside, is this a hot take or is Giannis really a 2nd option for a greater player?

I think he just needs to develop more. He’s 25, so he’s still got time and room for growth. But I’ve seen a few people on here agree with RJ’s sentiments.

Pippen didn't shoot over 32% from three till year 6 on 2.7 threes per game. Breh, stop it. I know nostalgia is the way of life on this site but ya'll really look like idiots in overaction threads like this.

Pippen was never the alpha. He complimented Jordan, but because of who he played with, he is considered royalty.


Pippen had a season to make people forget about Jordan, and couldn't.

Freak is only 25 with no true reliable sidekick, everyone is expecting him to be Lebron. He’s not Lebron, totally different game. Totally different offense. He’s an interior alpha who need another perimeter alpha like Jimmy Buckets or Dame.


Jefferson is bugging. However let’s not get carried away with him being a role player. Boy was putting up 19 to 23 ppg in his prime years. He was way better than Burrell.

The fact that that clip is formatted right under the reply too

Breh, he had great footwork. Look at how smooth his spin, drop step, or turn around shots are. Yeah he was physically dominant, but he made that shyt look smooth because of his footwork. Besides Dream and KAJ, what other center had low post game like this?

This thread is exposing the casuals, and I'm loving it

The Giannis hate is gonna go overboard really quick. Only people who should have smoke with Giannis are Harden fans
