I dapped cause I like Horry.


My comment still stands. Where has the best player been asked to inbound the ball being a non-factor while a play is drawn up for someone else? Wording aside sentiment the same. It's about the best player being in the game but out of the play as an inbounder?:comeon:
The unmitigated gall!!!

PIP WAS THE BEST PASSER ON THE TEAM
AND HES 6'7 WHICH INCREASES
THE ODDS OF THEM EXECUTING THE PLAY.
:devil:
:evil:

How he acted.

Dude burned down a bridge fast as hell in Houston, he had periods where he was acting ridiculous followed by being completely unapologetic about it, and he just did a lot of weird or otherwise inexcusable shyt for a guy expected to be the glue for teams.


The Rockets shouldn't have traded for Barkley... gave up young Sam Cassell :smh:

david blatt drew up a play to do just that in game 4 of the cavs/bulls series in 2015 when the score was tied with 1.5 seconds left. lebron told him i want the ball and the play was changed, lebron hit the game winner.

Crispness
Pip was the elder statesman on that team and had a bunch of championship experience(I know Detlef Schrempf was on that team, but he didn't have the level of gravitas Pippen had).

That Blazers team had enough to beat the Lakers, they needed someone to calm the kids down when they were up 15 and had the Lakers on the ropes in Game 7 and Pippen couldn't do it.

What's interesting is I was old enough to watch that game live and it was made a big deal that MJ visited Ron Harper before that game 7 and not Pippen... I don't think MJ wanted him to win and get one more ring than him

Man please, that Blazers team had more old/late prime players than “kids” - even ones older than Scottie.
Everybody knew nobody in the West was gonna beat those Lakers.

Exactly my point. Lebron stated his dissatisfaction with the play and it changed. Pippen stated his Phil like fu I'm going here. I don't fwu like that!

i can understand scottie's feelings in that situation but at the same time he let it get to that point where everything boiled over for him at that instant. its something he should have addressed with phil earlier that season to let him know he wants the ball with the game on the line or even right then and there when the play was drawn up for kukoc.

i imagine as a coach a player throwing a fit is less likely to get you to change your mind than a player showing extreme confidence. lebron gave his coach a chance to reconsider while pippen told his coach im out. i say that not discounting the differing success of the two coaches. while understanding pippen's frustration in that moment you can also say from phil's perspective with everything that had happened that season if pippen hadnt let his feelings known previously how was he to know that scottie would be bothered at all or ultimately as bothered as he was by not getting the ball.

However if he had...all I am saying is superstars dont get treated like that. It may seem that I am stating Pippen is right, I am saying I understand! If it was any other superstar MJ included, the results would have changed to play or their reaction may have been the same as Pips. However in the words of the Tootsie Pop Owl "the world may never know"

LOL@the Bron mentions when it’s Bulls fans in here telling y’all the deal with pip. Just the fact that he’s this hurt over the doc just reaffirms everything that’s said about him. He lucky they didn’t touch on how cheap that nikka was. No tippin Pippen :heh:

Were they supposed to leave out how he played himself with his contract? It's the sole reason why he hated krause and later elected to delay his surgery and miss almost half of the '97-'98 season.

They went into what Jordan's and phil's issues were with krause but for pip, how was it supposed to play out? Krause scouts pip. Falls in love with his game. Trades to get him in the 87 draft. Then in 97, pip hates him outta nowhere and krause wants to trade him. That's how it was supposed to go?

And him sitting out against the knicks - the series they got sent home in - they were supposed to skip over that part? The part pip said he would do again?
