Making Scottie say "I don't want to guard him" is probably onw of the highest compliment a player can receive.
Arguably the greatest defender perimeter ever
Scottie watching him in person realize just how amazing curry and the warriors play
TRUE, I remember scottie dapping Steph up after that game 4, so much respect
I do think certain players in the league are better than him as basketball players but I think Steph's game is much more valuable than the traditional scorer. James harden and curry can both get you 30 but one can do it much more easily. Curry's game is better for winning.
@Miggz 1Bay To be fair, there are better players than him. And that's saying a lot considering I'm on the Steph bandwagon. He's probably 3rd best behind KD and yes, Lebron. Giannis could be up there too, but he's only shown up a couple of years.
@@FABBZ facts
@Miggz 1Bay true
A 6 time champion recognizing greatness when he sees it
LeeTravius Mckay Exactly, champions recognize champions. Speaks to the fact of how Barkley approaches and clearly hates the Warriors.
@@angeal97 Chuck is just jelly.
Chris Jackson lit the Bulls up. The Bulls had no answer for him. Splash Brothers + KD+Dr Dray + Boogie...Iggy and the bench would have beaten the Bulls in 6.
Had to see him in person I guess
Cortez Fernandez the warriors are good but what u said about the bench players is CAP 🤣
Curry finally getting his recognition; its crazy how quick everyone forgot once KD got there.
Finally? Hes been a top five player all time since the run started. Steph curry is my PG on my all time team point blank period
With all do respect to curry KD would make u forget about anyone if he joined them
Yep, 32-1 without your "best" player? Thats unheard of. Its because Curry is the best not KDs bandwagon luggage carrying ass.
TrolandoTV
x rated Yes, finally! Just cause he’s been in your top 5 doesn’t mean he hasn’t been underrated since KD been there. He definitely has been by the media.
If Scottie wasn’t covering the NBA I have a feeling he would be doing voiceovers for audiobooks
I LOL'd
😂
Jay mere I did after watching countless Tyler Perry movies
The name alone had me geeking
Lion king would be good..or the voice of GOD
Scottie talking about harden: here's how to defend that.
Scottie talking about curry: how do you defend that?
SadBoiK Yea but their threats and play styles are totally different. Nobody creates space like steph because he’ll knock down half court shots with 5 mins on the clock.
Harden is amazing but he ain’t consistently hitting 40+ ft three’s like it’s a practice.
Constance Alicia consistently? He be going like 1 for 16 from 3 at times. He’s a ball hog but I understand his system is built that way for him. He’s still not as efficient as curry but I will say scoring 40 a night is pretty cool.
@@jovannydavila972 hardens ts% is pretty much identical for the past 4 years
@A M elaborate on this awesome take
A M nah the second the first is Westbrook he just cares about stats not wins
I love how scottie pippen recognize the gsw players.. True great players...
Love this dude.
"DUNKED ON PATRICK EWING REALLY HARD"
lmao bprp on a bball vid makes sense
6 time champion great player recognizes another fellow great player while these critics/deluded haters think curry cant win without kd LOL
Curry already won without him lol
He did but curry and golden state went to go get him so I think of it as they both need each other
But can curry win without Klay and Draymond
Lol who are the critics
@@Xaevin Iggy won without KD lmao he was finals mvp....
Thanks for your truth Pippen, this run is definitely about Curry and his Warriors

And still he will not get the finals MVP... They will give it to Jonas Jerebko before Curry... That award is a joke...
@Republika Dugave Steph should’ve gotten the FMVP in 2015. Yes Iggy did a good job defending Lebron, but Lebron really had no other offensive option after game 1. Plus, all of Iggy’s buckets were set up by Curry’s passes.
Kawhi Leonard the guy averaged 26/6/5 and didn’t win it. Absolutely robbery
@@yslxo_ yes.. Curry needs to average 40 ppg on 50,40,90 shooting just tp be in the conversation... 🤮🤮🤮
@@kawhisexylaughleonard4568 yes by that logic Rodman should have been the MVP in 96
"Dunked on patrick ewing really hard" LMFAO
Man I just saw that 🤣🤣😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂 lmaoo I just said this
That’s been there not funny anymore
Jalen Rose's usually says "was scored 82 points on"
who put that! 💀
Hearing Scottie talk about his injury and playing through it. Makes that 6th title even more special to me. #bullsforlife
Yep didn't even know he was going through all that
Especially his back
MJ carried the big load, Scottie avg like 9 points per game in that series.
@@regal394 we all knew. It was announced during the game. LIVE
@@Marlowe10100 FACTS!
I have to say, Curry is clearly more important than KD. And even more so, keeping the splash brothers together this summer is more important than keeping KD.
Yeah true. We just hope the warriors will sign Klay again. Their teamwork is on another level. That's what makes the Warriors team great.
Exactly! KD is one of the best players and he may help the Warriors win the ring easier but I just love the old warriors more.
There’s no way klay leaves. He loves the bay and the warriors owner desperately wants to keep him. He’s believed in klay from the start and it’s definitely paid off.
Keeping Klay and Draymond should be their absolute priority! over KD imo.
Plus, imagine how KD must be feeling right now. The warriors obviously have better chemestry without him, and seem to be able to win a championship without him. Why TF should he stay? He should go get his own ring (and lose to the warriors in te playoffs :D).
They wont win any chip without kd dumbass
a top 5 defender of all time recognizing curry as a player that not even he would wanna defend... thats gotta say something about the greatness of curry
GNB ????
Nah. Pip just want to give Curry his props like a classy sportsman that he is. In truth, Pippen would lock down Steph, prime vs prime since Pip is taller, and has longer reach. Actually if it was 90s Bulls vs today's GSW, Jordan would probably be guarding Steph and Pippen will get Durant.
@@rollyvincoy3848 pippen too slow to guard curry,
@@jrfiles9789 You forget who Pippen guarded all the time in practice.
Why not top 3?
That’s coming from the secretary of defence too
@BlueLagoon There's two ways of spelling defence
BlueLagoon not everyone is American, fuck outta here it’s spelt defence
@BlueLagoon No Canadian but we use the same one as the UK
Living legend Pippen
That's rodman
Pippen recognize that this is the Warriors era as 2015- till now like it was years ago with MJ & his Bulls in the 1990’s. Champions recognize champions.
DripzV fact
Steph is the first player ever to average 36+ in a 4 game sweep
#witnessabsolutegreatness
E BO it’s not a made up stat. There’s a lot of elite players in that company. You just hate to see him do great
Well MJ didn't have to score 36+ to sweep
@E BO They have a new broken record every day. I just listen like wtf didnt even know that was a thing...
@E BO you sound like a hater with no goals in life.
Lmaoo they have a record for every damn thing. “First player to score exactly 21 in 4 straight playoff games”.
For everyone who says Curry can't win without KD... actually its the opposite KD can't win without curry
KD literally was like, I CANT DEFEAT THESE MEN, I IMMA JOIN THEM THEN😅
KOTS those who say Curry can't win without KD are just Bronsexuals and guys who don't follow NBA
Yo If The Giannis Is Playing Like The MVP He Is, Or Even If Kawhi Goes Jordan Mode, I Honestly With All My Heart Believe...Warriors In 5
😭😭😭
LMFAOOOOOO
Excellent Set Up
Is everyone *using this recycled comment now?
But if draymond gets suspended game 5 warriors lose in 7 😂😂😂😂
SLIMER ** EXACTLY!!😂😂
Curry is that dude. The more basketball you play the more you know how ridiculous it is to shoot the way that man shoot. Bless up!
Magnets...
Omg the magnet comment makes me figure they have never played a game of basketball🤔😑🙃
I'm similar 🚫🧢
@@charlesgreen6462 go watch Damian lillards game winner. Shit literally goes straight to the left and is pulled back to the right and in. This isn't fucking baseball a basketball doesn't curve like that lmao
Magnets??. 🙄🙄
That's asinine and ass ah ten 😒
Curry really the most unguardable player in the world. Not because of iso, but because of his range & movement. You can’t even double him off the ball.
Scottie is such a humble man 👍👍💪good luck Warriors
MJ was unstoppable in his Era. Steph is unstoppable in this Era. Periodt.
King James stopped him nuff said.
Dude they about to win 4 out of 5 titles with James losing 3 of those. Wtf are you talking bout?
@@GoatReactz well he did at least stop him....even if it was once
2020ICU U do remember that the first one Irvin and Love were hurt right? and KD joined the already stacked GS . u remember that right?
supersiete1 oh come on man. stop the fucking excuses lol you are just being salty
Man warriors are just special people need too stop hating and just enjoy the beautiful history in the making!
Okay, this is a significant reality check for the legion of Steph haters. A significant moment. Here's Scottie Pippen, the ultimate defensive stopper from the Bulls dynasty, admitting that Steph presents problems that he never had to face in his playing days. For all those people who continue to insist that Curry is soft, the Warriors are a gimmick-team, so forth and so on...here's Scottie Pippen himself saying otherwise. Short of Michael giving the Warriors props--which I guess we'll never hear him do-- I take this to be a monumental validation of the GSW era... Only thing missing, I'd love to hear Rodman sometime give Draymond some props....
Rodman will probably do that in his weirdest ways. Like "👍 . "
pippen is a clown for saying he can’t guard curry
@@eustasskidd07 A clown how? For being honest?
Does Scottie pippen age. He looks like if the bulls called him today he could still give them 20 minutes a game
Rt
He look so young
Black don't crack
He also doesn't have an ounce of fat; he's probably even thinner than in his playing days...
Curry is double teamed just by running practically everywhere without the ball, everytime.
been like that since 2015 and he never stops moving without the ball
Get this man the Finals MVP ALREADY!
He didn’t play the best in the first series they won bc of the cold games when Deli was on him, the other 2 series they won KD had the best stats so ig they gave it to him. If he wants it he’s gonna have to not only win but play better than KD.
BlueLagoon
Yeah, the only way he might not is if Klay goes unconscious again. Unlikely tho...
Well he has to show up, because he usually doesn’t play like the best player in the finals
What about draymond?? He deserve it too! He play so fckn hard!!
Hahahaha
If the Warriors pull this championship run off, you can't deny the fact they're the best "team" ever. Less talented bench, 3 key players injured and really steph playing with 1 hand... is unbelievable
Zenas Mclucas , depends on what rules you play under. GSW would not be as effective if you could handcheck or you could throw them to the floor and only give up two FTs.
Oh boy...
dont forget ya boy Kevon Looney playing excellent all of a sudden!
PEDS haha ✌🏾
Sparky his been improving year after year
Kevon is improving a lot esp on hustle boards and defense. And the most important thing is he knows his role.
It's not all of sudden, I've been watching him all season.
Man when Currys son swishes his first bucket.... Its gonna be automatic from then on..
Cannon's gonna have a cannon for a arm lol
Named him Cannon for a reason

lmaoo they're foul
Savagery at its finest...
@ 0:25 I've been a Pacers fan all my life and it took a long time to hear that from a Bulls player.
Reggie Miller is one special guy that could have beatJordan
They give much more respect to Reggie than the UTAH players
never heard them mentioned stockton and malone
Reggie Miller was every bit as good as Steph. I'd dare he probably was a little better.

@@richarddavis5289 no
Scottie should REALLY consider doing voice-over....... His voice is sooo unique & soothing👌
Anthony Bennett imagine him doing asmr...
Curry is a great all around player and great rebounder. I'm glad since Durant is injured, Curry gets to pull out all his skills again.
Warriors have been going to finals since I was 15.... I’m 20 🤧
@0:05 it says *"Dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard"* 😂😂
Pippen gets hella respect and still underrated

Damn, they changed the thumbnail pic lmao
Darren P 😂😂😂bruh I had to go back and look. Shit funny he do
@Kyle Washington STUDENT ya ass too tight brhu chill out
That's why he called "Baby faced assassin" LMAO
There's a video with the filter on Curry and some other players, I'm telling you he still looked the same 😂
Curry is the most impactful player in the NBA, and he has been for years. It's great to see Scotty tip his hat
He's the most impactful player in the NBA ever. I'm not just saying that. Over Jordan, Lebron or Shaq(and he was a major problem down low). But no one changed the game completely like Curry. Not just the NBA, but all the way down to middle school baseball.
@@evraljones9862 Nah can't put him over MJ. Jordan took the game to new heights. The whole world wanted to be like Mike. Haven't seen that out of any other Athlete in any sport.
@@richarddavis5289 yea Mike is great! But he didn't change the game. It's what scottie was talking about.
Scottie watching him in person realises just how amazing the warriors dynasty is
I love Scottie P. as an analyst
Steph =best player in the league. Most analysts are so scared to admit a "small" guard can be the best in the world.
Thats true
KD is just icing on the cake for the Warriors. GS never needed KD to be a dynasty. KD just wanted rings and went there.
0:12 'Dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard' 😭😂
Clutch Performance!!!!
GSW for the WIN!
A 6 time champion recognizes greatness when he sees it.
This is why I don’t like putting guys like Harden, Kawhi and AD ahead of Steph he’s far too great to be easily dismissed because of his size and a couple of bad performances. Only guy I’ll give you is KD is a better talent but honestly nobody I rather have I’d take Steph over everybody in the NBA atm.
Joe James He has 3+ all stars while Kawhi and Harden have 0 stop it bruh, dont get me wrong hes been playing great but Hardem and Kawhi have 0 all stars to work with
@@htx7139 harden have a better team facing him this year and still lost and curry had only klay with him green wasnt good in that series lol stop finding excuses, curry and the warriors are breaking records after records

0:05 ”Dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard” 🤣💀
Love the accolades and accomplishments that are listed for Scottie, and that "Dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard" is one lmao
For Golden State to get a acknowledgement from one of the goats of defense has to be a top honor coming from Scottie.
I'm sure it would have said "Dunked on hard by Scottie Pippen" if Patrick was at the table...🤣
Stephen Curry is a top 5 player of all time.

@@leonardomartinjamal1094 u stfu hater. try to enjoy the greatness man.
Your mama is on my top 5 actually
emma chamberlain 10*
I'm a huge Curry fan and Warrior fan. Here's were greatness recognizes greatness. Cool that Pippen mentioned that it would be difficult for him to guard Curry. On the contrary, Pippen was a great defender, he'd have many moments locking down on Curry as well. Man I love this game.
Pippins voice is my spirit animal
Stephen Curry is the greatest Pg of all time.
You could say so but there's Magic. Steph is 2nd though.
Steph is a far better ball handler, scorer and playmaker than Reggie Miller ever was...and a better shooter.
Steph is so much more than his scoring... what doesn’t get talked about enough is the culture of humility that he has set in that franchise... willing to set aside MVP caliber performance for the good of the team (with KD).
In press conferences, they are always singing each other’s praises and the GS bench (cheering) was the first bench to really become a 6th man.
To balance the tension of humble and cutthroat is what makes him Steph.. other players try to PLAY like him, but there is so much more that makes him an MVP.
Scottie's voice can provoque earthquakes!😁
Man I'm becoming a Boogie fan here. gotta love his team spirit
one of the great F defender asking how do you defend that???
damn curry!! 😯
scottie and the bulls man good times
@0:04 "dunked on Ewing really hard" hahaha what an accolade for Pippen.
The Secretary of Defense has spoken!
Stephs face in the thumbnail looks like the baby filter on snapchat
Lmao
Kussell Westant yo profile picture is fetty bro😭
This bitch loud in every movie lmao
lmaoo
Steph Curry is basically Unstoppable, He will break you down with the handle and drive right by you or OR hit it from the parking lot, you can't really stop him.
what a deep legendary Pippen voice..
Draymond led the offense and defense through this series avgd a damn near triple double in a sweep 16.5 pts 9 ast 12 rebs 2 STL and 3 BLK had the ball alot and played aggresive
Warriors vs Bucks will be a great series
Yes, Bucks have a great team with a lot of threats. Its not just Giannis. They have a lot of guys who can defend well and score 10-15 points a game, a very deep roster. If Golden State still misses Iggy and Durant, its going to be a very difficult series for the Warriors. Its going to be fun for sure.
Shooting three pointers from heaven! Impossible to guard from that distance!
I love that description of Scottie in the beginning.
“Dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard” 😂😂😂
In his accomplishments it says “dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard” 😂😂
Haha, "dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard."
steph is unstoppable tbh.
Finally getting that recognition he deserves! Lol ..it's crazy how most doubted him and wld put other point guards over him like Westbrook or Dame as the top point guards Curry is the best point guard in the league! has been for a while now. Also greatest shooter of all time🙌🏻😌 his shooting isn't the only thing that makes him that, it's what Pippin said he puts so much pressure on team's defense...even when he was off in the Houston series those games, the Houston defense was continually chasing after him ...that's how dangerous he is! Not to mention he's the most selfless point guard I've seen tbh .
Curry was awesome. Klay shot under 40% smh.. he’s got to be better. Love Curry but he didn’t score in overtime . He’s got to score one basket at least. He had some good looks too. Klay and draymond were absolute dogs on defense. Wow. Total team effort. Looney and Mckinnie were awesome. Livingston too. Btw, Looney is the unsung hero of the Warriors playoffs run. I think he can keep it up vs the East champ. We shall see. Iguodala needs to be healthy moving forward.
Omar Usmani I agree with everything you said however Steph played the entire 2nd & OT and made the correct play to end the game with Green's 3.. his only 3! Klay playing lockdown D so to even have the energy to score is a feat in itself. You are dead on about Looney! He has shown such a high IQ and has clearly learned this system. He has elevated his game tremendously and it's showing.
Yep, 32-1 without your "best" player? Thats unheard of. Its because Curry is the best not KDs bandwagon luggage carrying ass
TRUEEEEEEEEEEE
it good to hear that scottie pippen recognized reggie millers' greatness ...... I'm lucky to see the series between the pacers & the bulls that went game 7 which the bulls won .......
This man and his team has lost only one playoff series in five years, come one people thats just unreal, no one does that.......this is one of the most incredible players ever, Steph is that man, we just need to respect that mans game
Best team of all time..come at me haters
Next seasons WCF will be Clippers vs Warriors
Refund HD nuggets vs gsw and in the east Knicks bucks

If canon plays in nba in the future, that championship photoshoot with him being carried by step would be flashed all the time 😂

Like if the warriors winning the chip
“Dunked on Patrick Ewing really hard” LMFAOOOO
I swear that Jonah hill double chin flappin out of breath ass boi always cracks me up whenever I look at home
Curry is STILL the best player in the league and tell me I'm lieing , everybody else is whatever argument y'all have with y'all selves cause I know basketball and seen for years way before this point menahwile most of you so smart y'all finally admitting Curry is the best in the league as A shooter and little man. We haven't seen this since A.I. , Steve Nash days. You guys say he hasn't stepped up in Playoffs and proved it well here you go. Delivering A sweep and eliminating the Rockets and he didn't do it by himself but they damn sure couldn't have done that without him.
I respect your opinion man but I disagree. The title of best player in the league has got to go to a 2 way player. I'm not saying Curry is not a good defender, I think he is, but the best player in the league has got to be someone dominant on both end of the floor like Jordan, Kobe, Wilt, prime Lebron, prime shaq...
Curry himself admits that KD is the best player on the Warriors.
Curry is probably the best shooter in NBA history. His off ball mouvement and range make him COMPLETELY UNGUARDABLE. But he is only that good because of the team he is on. Draymond, klay, KD, Iggy, and Steve Kerr's system allow Curry to shine without being to much of a defensive liability.
You mentioned Nash and A.I, both those players were HUGE defensive liability. I'm a Nash fan myself but man did he hurt his team in defense! (I'm talking about the Stoudmire/Marion Suns Here)
And even though Nash won two MVP's, I still think that Kobe was the best player at the time.
It's my opinion anyway.
I’m kind of convinced that this team minus KD could beat Pippens Bulls and Scottie is low key admitting as much with his opening comments....
Go watch highlights of Dennis Rodman, Tony Kokoc and Ron Harper.
Relax dude. They beat a 53 win Portland team that is horrendous at defense. Not that impressive.
😑 Michael Jordan will score 60+ & Pippen will have 30...even with KD they can’t beat the Bulls in the 90s...maybe in their era they can.
Amazing how humble Scottie Pippen is
When a defender like Pippen says that....
So happy finally recognized curry's greatness not those clowns like chuck,nick,pierce
1:50 uhhh no we can't dude. They are a fricken dynasty fym😒 were you not watching the NBA the past 5 years? This is not debatable at all!
Scottie Pippen is one of the smartest former players out there and his analysis is spot on -- the comparison with Barkley is startling. Extending the defense to 35 feet is key, even more than the 3-point shot itself. The last few games has seen a lot of interior shots owing to the defense being spread out and leaving openings inside. In a lot of ways I see Klay being his teams Scottie Pippen -- the second guy you have to guard like a hawk after Steph. How do you guard man-on-man AND cover the floor out to 35 feet.
“It takes a little more to be a champion.”- Sports apparel ad
Scottie Pippen understands greatness,cause it’s an attribute that’s entrenched in his genes.
