      They do, they just don't know it or the media makes it seem like it's all about Jordan. When I was a kid, I always respected Pippen and understood that basketball is a team sport and Jordan would not have won championships in 1996, 1997 and 1998 without Pippen, Rodman, Kukoc and everyone else.

      He did, until he opened his mouth and started throwing shade. MJ doesn't control media narratives, and anyone with a thimbleful of sense knows that basketball is a team sport. I *defy* you to find a single thing that came out of Jordan's mouth which wasn't complimentary of Pippen. No, this is Scottie being Scottie, the same petulant, sullen, resentful guy in 2021 that he was in 1997, who continues to blame other people for his own poor choices. Jerry Reinsdorf advised Scottie to sign a shorter contract, Scottie kept his own counsel, and when he regretted his own decision, did he say "Well, I guess I made a bad decision"? No, he blamed other people. So, when 'The Last Dance' came out and it told the story of Scottie's resentful refusal to take the court because Phil chose Kukoc to take that final shot, did he enter a new phase of self-reflection? Did he admit it was an immature and unprofessional thing to do? No, he blamed MJ and the producers of 'The Last Dance' for showing *the truth*.
      I'm not surprised, how much character growth do you expect an athlete who's been a millionaire celebrity from his mid-20's to achieve? He doesn't have to reconcile his ego with the world, he's got enough money to keep an army of psychophants around him who will agree with anything he says, no matter how immature and insipid.

    People, don’t forget that Scottie’s son died like 6 months before he started ranting about Jordan. When you lose a child, your whole world shifts, you’re bitter inside and take it out on everybody without even knowing it. That’s a deep wound that never really heals. If Michael ever sees Scottie, he should just go up to him, give him a hug and not take anything Scottie says personal because Scottie’s hurting right now.

MJ gave away his FMVP car award to Scottie when he won it in 97'. For scottie's birthday, Mike was originally going to give a box of cigars to Pip but then bought him his own Ferrari cause he knew that it was his favorite car. Jordan gave A LOT of praise to his partner throughout their years together and will never put the down the word "we" when it came to success and winning with him.

      Pippen was a total bricklayer of a shooter in 3rd and 4th quarters of key playoff games (and regular reason games frankly). People always talk about Pippen having 6 rings, and guys like Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, John Stockton, Steve Nash, etc being playoff losers, but I've never seem any of them disappear MORE than Pippen; yes, including Karl Malone!
      Just to add, the BULLS didn't draft well throughout Jordan's run, and they didn't sign any big free agents. They nailed one draft, 1987, by trading away Polynice for Pippen (swap), and drafting Horace Grant. Charles Oakley was a nice pick too. Their other drafts were underwhelming. The only key free agent signing, was Ron Harper, WHEN Jordan was retired. The BULLS were CHEAP! And Ron Harper ceased being the 20 PPG version of Ron Harper. He was never known as a defensive guy (just the opposite frankly). It's when Jordan and Pippen included him in their "Breakfast Club", did he get up to speed on defense. Credit to him, but if the BULLS lose any of those titles, people would point to his bad contract at the time.

Imo that's one of the most admirable traits a person can have. Michael was portrayed in both positive and a negative light (ruthless etc), but Pippen was the only one portrayed in the best possible light imo. Even if his screen time was shorter than Michael's, it didnt really feel that way to me. Dunno, maybe Pippen is right to be angry but I think he went a bit too far.

Michael would never say he would have won without Pippen. Pippen, Horace Grant or Rodman never got the respect they deserve. Its absolutely 100% true.

      To add, Pippen made about $110 million while Jordan made $94 million over the length of their NBA careers. Pippen made a ton with Portland. He's "supposedly" this great leader, yet I'd love for someone to explain to me the '00 Blazers team that lost in Game 7 that year. The Jailblazers happened on Pippen's watch. I was a BULLS fan, and you'd have to remind me of Pippen's presence on offense in 3rd and 4th quarters; specifically as a shooter. He's one of the biggest fades (on offense) when it comes to key playoff games.
      Pippen didn't TEACH MJ how to win. There was a spot for someone to come in and thrive, and he grabbed the opportunity; good for him. Kobe and LeBron fans will stop at nothing to accentuate Pippen's importance on those BULLS teams, to the point, where younger people - who don't know any better - will think that perhaps Pippen was really the guy stirring the drink. He most certainly wasn't. Absolutely great #2 guy. Never the main reason.

      Scottie Pippen started 0 game that season, played 79 games, averaged 21mpg, averaged 8/4/2 for the regular season on 46/17/58 shooting.
      Jordan averaged 35/6/6/3/2 that season, won the scoring title, MVP, AND DPOY.
      That is the first time Jordan got out of the first round, his 4th season (3rd full season) in the league after getting drafted 3rd overall to a lottery team.
      In the first round series, Jordan averaged 45/5/5/3/2 on 56/-/92 shooting to beat the Cleveland Cavaliers.
      Scottie Pippen averaged 11/5/2/1/1 on 47/0/83 shooting.
      It's actually baffling to me that people would even give credit to Scottie Pippen in that scenario when he wasn't even the 3 best players on the Bulls that series. Don't you think that's actually disrespectful to the other Bulls teammates? Don't you think what you're doing is what Scottie Pippen accused Jordan of doing with TLD? Lmao.
      Pippen been out of his prime after 1994 brother.
      Jordan only had 3 seasons without Pippen, that's his first 3 seasons in the league, and 2 more when he was 39 years old on a terrible Wizards team. Technically Jordan did play the 98 season mostly without Pippen, but you'd exclude that season anyway since you sound like a hater.

And even then, Jordan shut down many stars on his bag more than Pippen (even shutting down Pippen's assignments). There's an entire article detailing about Jordan's incredibly consistent defensive impact throughout his career that puts him as one of the best defensive guards of all time.

    7:32 The Last Dance is not overly centered on Jordan. It's the Jordan's Bulls. Other teammates of his got some screen time, Dennis Rodman, Scottie Pippen, even Steve Kerr, which should've been Toni Kukoc instead. It's the Jordan Bulls, not the Scottie Pippen's Bulls. If there's a documentary about the 2016 Cavaliers I want it to be more on Lebron James, than it is about Kyrie or Kevin Love. If there's a documentary on the 2010's Warriors dynasty, I want it to be about Steph Curry, not Kevin Durant, not Draymond Green, not Klay Thompson. You can give the supporting casts some screen time and back story, but at the end of the day, the protagonist of the series are Jordan, Lebron and Curry for their own respective dynasty.
    It's actually crazy to expect equal screen time among the casts. It borders hater-ism from my perspective.

Scottie wanted people to give more credits to the Bulls players, but turned around taking credits away from Lebron's teammates. Seems hypocritical, no?
      Scottie also was on record saying he wanted to be remembered as The Greatest of all Time, so it definitely feels like this is more about himself, than the rest of the team.

      Luc Longley made his own version of The Last Dance and invited Jordan to be on it.

Jordan personally made it up for Luc to appear on his own documentary/interview or whatever because he feels Luc was an important part of the team.

    To be absolutely fair 'The Last Dance' was a very enjoyable puff piece for Jordan and I think we all know that it was heavily vetted by him before it could go out. It really did belittle Pippin - but in a way that I think Jordan could distance himself from (it really focused on his mental weakness in the 'I'm out' game and the 'headache' game - and to be fair even when he played with a slipped disc, it didn't really emphasise the strength of character it really took to do that). I mean, it also airbrushed Jordan's whole family situation, only touched on the gambling thing, handled Jordan's father with kid gloves sensitivity - when actually he is a problematic figure in his own behaviours and activities - it did make the Bulls look like they were only something with Jordan, and really not very much without him. I imagine that Pippin seethed watching it and I can imagine that many of the other Bulls watched the release and thought "Well actually, f**ck you". Jordan was an amazing player - but like so many great players his ego has got in the way of his legacy. Remember - Republicans buy sneakers too.

    5:00 I may have taken this out of context, so sorry if I did. Scott Pippen thought "Michael took too much time, grieving about the death of his father." I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American. 1993-94 was among the BEST times of my life, and 1996 was pretty special, too. My father unexpectedly passed away in 2003, and life hasn't been good for me since. And, Scott Pippen's father Preston passed away in 1990, I believe (it was before Scott won his first championship). Scott's father passed away from an illness, my father passed away from what we believe was an embolism. Michael Jordan's father was MURDERED!! Not even "accidentally killed by a reckless or drunk driver." Rather, two a-holes thrill killed Michael's father, and robbed his championship ring and car, and bragged about it! In addition to sports, I watch a lot of true crime. True crime stories REALLY helped me cope, since 2004: For as bad as it was to lose my Dad unexpectedly when I was 29, I take a LOT of comfort, that he did not die because of a murder or something gruesome. I may be misunderstanding things, but I for my part, do not like that Scott criticized Michael for taking too long to grieve about his MURDERED father! I thought about committing suicide, after my father passed away. I don't even want to know how many times worse it felt for Michael.

Yes, you can be preoccupied with grief and you can make too a big a deal if it starts negatively impacting your life. Additionally, the disparity between their contracts was something that would rub a a man the wrong way. I have also thought that Jordan and his whole family were far too Michael-centric about his career, right from the get-go. I admire them for rallying around their boy, but they created a bit of a ME-MONSTER with the way they handled his ascension.

There was even a playoffs game in 1997 ECSF where the Bulls played the Hawks, game 2 Dennis Rodman fouled out in 25min of game time, Jordan had to grab a game high 16 rebound (6 oreb/10 dreb) which was double the amount of reb of the 2nd highest on his team.

    As a lifelong basketball historian and enthusiast, I'd settle the whole argument if I could rewind time and put Lebron and/or whoever against MJ and/or whoever. A strong proportion of my life savings says MJ takes the win 8 out of 10. And that's being respectful to Lebron and co.
    Scottie Pippen, as good as he was, has nothing to do with this statement.
    Great commentary/doc here btw :)

      Jordan 10 out of 10 times. Nothing against Lebron, seen both play. Michael's got everything plus the mental edge. Lebron may be physically stronger than him, I'd doubt that though b/c MJ can handle big, quick men with higher individual skillsets in a 1 v 1 matchup. Lebron is just mentally weak.

      @@Poopopotamusgaming Because the Bulls fired Doug for non basketball reason. Doug was having a relationship with the owner's daughter. Jordan stood up for his coach. Did not have any problems fitting into Phil's system though. Was fine with drawing up plays for Steve Kerr infamous game winner. Waiting for you to make some sense.

      @@demontiakpinkney5881 look at Jordan’s salary for 95 and 96 seasons. Jordan operated on one year contracts and only made $1m more than Scottie. Jordan was paid less than some rookies and 1/4 of a Robinson or Ewing. The FACT is due to Jordan, the nba brand boomed. Hence why Scottie Pippen made about $20M MORE in career earnings than Jordan. Look up Dominique Wilkins or Barkleys career earnings and compare to Scottie.. then talk to me.
