Scottie at least was a terrific player but both he and Kwame needing attention as neither is relevant is hilarious.

Go make some creative cat videos Scottie and try to get your attention through that....

I do understand it has to sting that one guy is a billionaire and the other is barely getting by financially but Scottie made those choices.

Awesome

The man who refused to take the court because the final play of a game was not designed for him talking about... wait for it...

BEING A TEAM PLAYER

How awesome is that?

Pippen's never been the sharpest knife in the drawer. Almost as dumb as LeBron.
Around 20 years ago, i had a few people tell me (who didnt know each other) that they would see Scotty Pippen work out at LA fitness in Ft Lauderdale.

I was always puzzled why he would work out in a public gym like that

I don't believe Scotty is doing too hot financially. I believe what digs at him the most(i think it has little to do with basketball) is how well off Jordan is and how much he struggles. Probably the "last dance" was the straw that broke the camel's back.

I get it. Scotty was a hell of a player and didn't make a fraction of what Jordan made on or off the court and even though the man won the same 6 championships is more the butt of jokes than actual awe of what he accomplished.

I believe Jordan is the best ever but also believe Pippen is the most underrated player of all time. The man was pretty fantastic and probably would have won a title or 2 as the top dog on another team.

Pippen also played in the wrong era when it comes to on court earnings. You look at #2s today and they earn about the same as the #1.

Khris Middleton about to turn now 40 million next season to sign a longer term contract. Was actually making more on a per year basis than Giannis until his super max kicked in...

Pippen was always making peanuts compared to Jordan with even on court salary. Then obviously made even less fractionally with off court stuff.

Pippen signed a HORRIBLE extension with the bulls.

But i agree with your Middleton comp.

Crazy what these players make these days

He had 2 shots when Jordan was playing baseball.
Yeah. In Pippen's defense---Jordan did retire abruptly and team never had the time to fill the Jordan void with another player and start building around Scottie. They also did make the ECF even after the bombshell of Jordan walking away...

He was good with Portland. Blew that 15 point 4th quarter lead against shaq/Kobe in WCF.

Pippen was a hell of a player and pretty much, even before all this stuff, got mocked.

Yeah. He made that horrible decision and it was horrible.

Wasn't that in the last dance when even the GM was like you shouldn't sign this? It was the GM or owner i believe...haha
