Pippen had a chance to erase "sidekick" forever when the Blazers faced the Lakers in playoffs.
Bad officiating , but he was on the court when that epic comeback happened, and he missed a big 3 pointer that might have stopped the Lakers momentum.
Dude was 36 with a fukked up back,it was a miracle he could even be a positive contributor at that point tbh
If Jordan was playing and healthy that play getting drawn up for him, regardless
Scottie could score but he wasnt a GREAT scorer, that was his only weakness
bolded is literally facts, Pippen was more of leader than Jordan back in those days, as far as rallying guys and making sure everybody was in the right position
Jordan lead thru action and intimidation to certain extent, Pippen doesn't get his due credit but those Houston and Portland days leave alot to be desired

Dude was basically 60-70% of himself physically once he left Chicago. Once back issues come, you are getting taken down a peg....honestly worse than.knee injuries
Pip is my favorite player of all time. As a kid, I would try to play defense like him. Couldnt relate to Mike but shyt was too easy....same reason I liked Batman better than Superman
Pip was a sidekick and there is no shame. Playing next to Jordan, anyone is gonna be considered #2. That's just how it was gonna be. Dude is maybe the best#2 of all time....embrace that
I get what he thinks.....when mike left, he was top 3 in MVP voting....balled out and almost led a team with fukking Pete Myers as starting SG to the ECF if weren't for that fakkit Hue Hollins
Had the cheap ass Bulls even just got a decent solid starting SG,not even an allstar,they woulda made Finals without Mike....cuz pete Myers starting is basically like getting the best dude from a dec league to play in.the pros....dude scored 4 ppg a game

Kukoc was good but dude was putting up 11/6...
Grant was the 2nd best player and he was just really solud
Nikkas act like he was Luka....he was a really good bench dude who came up.big when he had to
TLDR.....pip should be realistic about his situation but put some spek on his name too
