Huh? Payton from 98 till retirement was a better player than Pippen.

Pippen was a shell of himself while Payton got selected to Olympics team 2000. Plus he got all NBA 1st in 98 and 2000.

We are not comparing who was better in their prime.

Scottie was a shell of himself and hadn't made the all star game since 97. Payton was making those till 2003.

At
No
Point..

Was he better than Pip



Not like Dwade and Shaq was on his team....

Once Kemp fell off.. GP had like 2 elite seasons..

What is u talking about right now son

nikkaz really disrespectful to Pip
Pippen fell off after 98. There are stats and accolades proving that.
Pippen was past his prime ring chasing in Houston and Portland. Payton didn't ring chase until 03-04 season because he was getting you 20 pt and nearly 9 ast per game. In the year 2000 he even averaged more rebounds than Pippen in Portland.

For majority of Pippens tenure in Portland he was averaging about 10 points.

If a GM traded 20 ppg point guard for an older SF with 10ppg, that GM would be fired the same day.

I remember some announcer trying to make the argument once that the Bulls had the two best all around players in the NBA but even rooting for them i couldn't agree with that. Not with cats like Robinson Dream and Barkley out there. Pippen was great in his role and for what the Bulls needed and he was somewhere in the top 10 for most of the 90's. But again with Mike David Hakeem Chuck Ewing Malone etc. he might have had an ARGUMENT for top 5 but it for sure wasn't set in stone.

Lmaooo just say you don't like him


At no fukkING POINT was GP better than PIP.

Hill had his time at the top too
Nah, im a huge Pippen fan. I just watched the game back then. The only time you could argue Pippen was a top 5 player was the immediate season after Jordan left where he was a legit MVP candidate. He never played at that level again.

I love Scottie, he's one of my favorites. He was one of the best players in the league in his prime, but nikka that's a video game.



Na, Pipp at best was the 2nd best player in the league at one point

People wanna forget that to bolster (and hurt) some legacy’s…..

But Pippin was that dude…. Phil Jackson on record said Pippin was more skilled as a basketball player than MJ
