That 2000 portland team was stacked🔥 Smith, Damon, Bonzi ,Anthony, Wallace, O'Neal, Detlef, Augmon, old man Sabonis. What i do remember about that series against lakers is the lakers had the refs in the back pocket
Pippen has alway gotten his flowers He is not Underrated he is rated right where he belongs! The only clown that think he is underrated are people who want to discredit MJ legacy
-- The refs saved the Lakers in the 2000 playoffs. POR should have closed it out but a few bad calls AND Lakers making some plays, Scottie almost led that POR team to the Finals.
The only thing we hear about Pippin is his issues with Jordan. And lord knows Jordan's story is over saturated. Stop ✋️. We don't hear enough about Pippin. He's extremely under rated, mainly due to Jordan fanboys.
*WELLLLLLLLLLLL when you got the REFS getting sucky sucky from Kobe and Shaq* how can you win ?????????? shouldn't have went to Game 7 Rasheed was supposed to have 3 rings..........Duncan is a cornball too - 2005
and its his fault Mike aint got 7 smh…that “migraine” bullshit…those that were paying attention know it was supposed to be Bulls vs Blazers in 1990 smh…
Bullshit Pippen should've got a seventh. Everyone keeps talking about he went to the ECFinals the year MJ retired to play baseball in honor of his father's passing. Like get your facts right he got the 2nd round ONLY and bitched and complained about so many stuff that season including when Phil writing up a play for Tony Kukoc which is the right play not to mention Kukoc a better shooter. Bronsexuals and Pippen now like to bring up making the right play when it comes to LBJ. Well Pippen listen up bcoz the right play was for Kukoc & he made the shot and the way Pippen reacted to Kukoc makng the shot was so similar to how the BadBoyPistons reacted after they lost via sweep while they were defending champions to 🐐 GOAT MJ 🐂 Bulls

A lot was kind of Bonzi’s own fault. He didn’t get along with management or his coaches when he was in Memphis and Houston so his playing time dipped, and he basically faded out in the league because of it.

Born and raised a Blazer my whole life. This squad was one of my all time favorite RIP CITY squads. Fell a little short in epic fashion but this squad was about that action. Rip City was thriving.
Pippen definitely gave the team structure on the court . Even in Chicago when Mike was screaming at his teammates ,he was the one who would give them advice and then come double if they needed help . I really enjoyed his game
@@BruceWalls-jk1vy the only reason they were talking trade is because he was a top 3 finisher for MVP, all star MVP and his contract was coming up. His value was sky high. At the time nobody was caring what BJ Armstrong or Luc Longley though of 33.
@@captaincooool No Bulls Management was done with Pippen after the 93-94 season when he quit in the knicks series. The locker room wasnt responding to Pippen no more. Proof is there 23-25 record at All star break of the 94-95 season. The trade fell thru to the suns right b4 MJ returned but pippen was on his way out, he SUCKS as a Leader💯
@@BruceWalls-jk1vyThat’s a complete utter lie. Scottie asked for the trade because of the contract situation,it had nothing to do with the Knicks game. Scottie asked for a trade for years and the Bulls never did it. The players were disappointed with Scottie,but they weren’t done with him by any means,especially when it was an out of character move as many of his teammates said. He also led the team in every statistical category so clearly they weren’t struggling because of him. Losing Horace was a big deal that took away their second best player and best big. Even when Mike came back that was a hole that needed to be filled,which it did by Rodman. I wish y’all stop trying to make stuff up.
@@dakliq420 How in the World you are going to tell me im lying, when I have family in Chicago and I ACTUALLY talked to Scott Williams who PLAYED on that team. He told me the team wasn't the same after Pippen refused to go back in the playoff game against the Knicks. They started the 94-95 season with ugly record by All star break and Bulls management was about to trade Pippen for the Suns Richard Dumas but the trade fell thru. Right after that Jordan returned and DEMAND management to KEEP PIPPEN. SMH, Go do some more research.
The NBA was never going let Scottie win 7, and it made it easy with him being on the Blazers. They were done dirty and Donaghy admitted it. Scottie having no DPOY awards shows how the NBA pulls the strings.
You swap out Pippen for another star, Jordan still gets the rings. No disrespect to Pip, one of the greatest to ever do it. Take out Pippen and put in Drexler or Dominique....still 6 rings or more
@@alvinrichmond305 you don't get 2 3peats and a 72-10 season. It's not up for debate. Even Bird and Magic had to beat each other and they both inherited teams with multiple all-stars. Sans Scottie, Mike wins 2.
@@JamusChristus Wrong, Michael Jordan and Dominque probably beats the Pistons earlier. They probably win 8 rings with Jordan retiring. The only question mark is Wilkins tearing his Achilles. They wouldn't be as good defensively but they make up with that with offense. jordan may rub off on nique to be better defensively
Pip carried the Bulls often . It Whatin all Mike. It showed when Mike left and they made it to the playoffs without him. Pip was “That Guy Fa Sho!” Sheed and Bonz were too! Loved that Portland Team! Sheen how come u didn’t come back and play wit Dame?
A 4-peat 1993-94 Bulls were pursuing. Y’all celebrate being Cavs with 3 starters out for entire series, & 3 wins vs Knicks, with Derek Harper ejected, & suspended 2 games, & Starks wearing a knee brace, fresh back from knee surgery. Bulls had like 6 different players, many were big favored for the second three peat.
@@Mr.anderson3227 I’ll stop when anyone can show me season where Michael Jordan scored every point for the Bulls, every rebound, every steal, every blocked shot and got zero assists because he scored all the points. It is the fake media that needs to stop individualizing team sports
This is why I can't stand Jordan fans. They act as if Jordan didn't have crappy games or get outplayed. There's been times where other players brought the Bulls back when Jordan was screwing up. P.S. any Jordan fan that tries to tell me prove it, just stop ✋️. You're only embarrassing yourself, exposing yourself, and proving my point 👉.
I Stand on That Game was Called ONE Sided when the Lakers Got DOWN BIG! Portland Had them and I felt like I was watching Arch Rivals Video Game Basketball 🏀 instead of the NBA which allowed LA to Win the game
Not putting Greg Anthony in the 4th quarter in Game 7 cost the Blazers. Derek Fisher was locking Damian up. Greg needed to be on the floor. He would have held onto that lead.
refs wouldnt call fouls... Damon drove Shaq swallowed him like the greater than equal sign lol... lakers got every touch foul to come back Blazers didnt get any which caused them to lose
Wow glad this vid showed up for me. I hope some faded/jaded comments Scottie has made the last couple years doesn’t affect his legacy. Most of the comments are correct on here. Pippens game should be the avatar of basketball played as a whole. Do all the disciplines well, he played his role. Not his fault his role just happened to be behind the greatest of all time. Not every player would be able to do that. Loved that Blazer team too
That Blazer team was so loaded with Pip, Bonzi, Stoudamaire, Steve Smith, Sheed, Detlef Schrempf, Sabonis, Jermaine O'Neal, Greg Anthony. I wish these are the stories we hear about with Pip instead of him trashing Jordan. I think he's hurting his own legacy.
@PIP...33 Pippen couldn't even start his rookie year in 87 , but in revisionist history ur saying Pippen can be a franchise player now? 😅😅😅. U gonna start ur team with a player who couldn't even get the start over Brad Sellers and I'm sure u don't have a clue who TF Brad Sellers is either 😅😅😅. But hey to each is on good luck starting a franchise with a player like Pippen lol
@@g24deez Guys like KG , Kobe also didnt started at all , Sam Mitchell told that when they started Garnett thats they becomes more better. Kobe wasnt even in starting 5 despite fans voted him all-star. So better dont open mouth anymore.
I love hearing the stories from the other NBA players growing up in the 90s and pippin was my favorite player for the same reason because I could not be like Mike lol
Scottie was a great, him and MJ were the perfect duo, I personally hate the rift between them right now it comes off as jealousy because MJ has stated many times that he couldn't have won the championships without Scottie, he was a top five player in the league during there run if not the second best player but MJ was that dude rather you liked him or not
Nawwww Mike ran his mouth like Jada Pinkett on that last Dance BS doc. He didn't need to air certain things out ... like his shit didn't stink. They never mentioned Mike getting his Pops killed but he shitted on everyone else.
@@cochisefromcoolyhigh796the stuff on last dance about Pip were facts and mostly known. Saying MJ killed his dad is not fact but opinion based solely on people trying to knock him down
@@teamcavemanFacts or not, it wouldn't have been in the doc if Mike didn't approve it. They could have painted Pippen in a better light if they chose to. I was looking forward to hearing about the season the Bulls played without Jordan and they summed up that season by only focusing on Scottie checking himself out of that game. In fact, they spent more time talking about Jordan playing baseball than they spent on that Bulls team.
@@ContextReallyMatters as much as many of us care about basketball, the story of that season was not Pippen. They mentioned all the important things about the Bulls that year. But most fans found out more about things we didn’t know about MJs baseball season, and why he came back. They mentioned Pippens great season and near mvp. That they added kukoc and where they finished. What else happened that you wanted them to mention? These are the reasons for MJ coming back and putting the Bulls back on top. Even pip on television asking MJ back. Maybe if 1995 was like 1994 and baseball didn’t strike and the fans, players, and even Pip, MJ wouldn’t have come back and there would be no last dance series.
MJ taught Pip to be a professional. All those years playing with, against and working out with MJ molded an already good player into a great player and professional. Makes me so sad now to see all the crapping he's doing on their combined legacy because of perceived slights and insecurities.
Those 80’s Bucks teams are up there in the best teams to never win a championship. They just ran into other legendary teams like the Moses-Dr. J Sixers and Bird Celtics
The NBA did not want Pippen to get that 7th ring, because all of their marketing is based on Jordan being the 'goat'. Combine that with Portland being a small market, that's why the refs did not allow Portland to win in 2000.
Pip was always an excellent all around player. But he choked on his last few chances. His teammates weren’t helping him much either. Pip was never the guy to carry a team.
Pippen was my favorite player growing up. Scottie never got enough credit for the Bulls success. That Blazers team should have won the title! They were stacked.
Good on Scottie Pippin, paying it forward. He earned the status to be that dude, too. ...Not another distraction on the Bulls. IMO The Last Dance, intentionally or not, was a slight to Scottie Pippin
Pip proved after Bulls he ain't that dude that can win a chip as lead guy, he could only win with MJ because he needed a ruthless winner to get the best out of him.
I loved Pippen growing up, he was my guy in the Bulls, the Rockets and the reason why a little kid from Argentina like me became a long time Trail Blazers supporter. That team was pure magic!
The league was never going to allow Scottie to get 7. The way those series were officiated, it couldn’t have been more obvious. Stern always did everything he could to protect his baby.
It really annoys me that the MJ doc strengthened the narrative that Pippen was a sidekick instead of a key cog. Even MJ gave him his flowers, it was the MJ stans
Despite Pippen being a great player teams feared the Bulls because of MJ, knowing that you have the best player in the league on your team has to allow you to play with great confidence while your game flourish, practicing against Mike helped his confidence I'm sure
Thanks for paying Homage to Scottie Pippen guys. That Portland team was more then capable of winning the championship if it wasn’t for that epic comeback by Kobe in the 4th quarter. I was there to witness the lakers come back as I worked at the staple center. I thought the lakers was gonna lose as they was down double digits and Kobe (rip) led the way with some timely shots and Bshaw 3’s with Kobe lob to Shaq to cap it off. Scottie wasn’t the same with the back injuries but that Trailblazer team was lethal with a bunch of shooter and young Jr Rider, Stoudamire, Steve Smith, Pip, Shed, I believed Sabonas was on that team as well Damm they were talented smh. Lakers should of lost thank GOD they didn’t
People feel free to let me know your opinion on this, do you think, if Pip won a ring with the Bulls when MJ first retired, that it would affect MJ’s GOAT status?
man mj never won a playoff series without pippen, it would’ve shown more of pippen effect, i just wished he played with drexler or chuck instead, he could’ve won too
my favorite team to never win a title. They were a joy to watch and the real shame was like I heard Damon say that they should have kept the squad together in particular Jermaine Oneal.
Let’s get this straight, no need to hate on MJ, give PIP his flowers but don’t be in here talking about he carried the Bulls and should have a Finals mvp. Stop it, Pippen was nice but not the dog that MJ was, MJ didn’t mind taking the blame if they loss, Pippen didn’t score when he needed to against the Lakers in that game 7…he’s the vet, we’re they’re some bad calls, of course but nevertheless, he had oppurtunities…AND I LOVED THAT PORTLAND TEAM, I was rooting for Scottie…MJ ain’t losing being up 15 with 7min left
Didn't Scottie lead the Bulls to 1game away from the Finals when Jordan was gone? Yes...yes he did. Jordan never left the 1st round without Pippen and Phil Jackson. Js...
@@keetstyla4190 YES HE DID U DERANGED. JORDAN 1-9 IN CAREER NEVER WON 40 GAMES PRIOR PIPPEN. PIP WON 55 AND WAS ALMOST IN FINALS VS SAME KNICKS TEAM ALONE AGAIN REF SAVED TEAM VS PIPPEN.
Wow this was great. I was so mad after winning big time and losing the 4th quarter. We have to give alot of credits to the REFS😢😮 That Blazers team was deep, Bonzi no one couldnt stopped him low, n Wallace was as beast. I would have wish that Sabonis was younger when he got the the league. 😢

Born and raised a Blazer my whole life. This squad was one of my all time favorite RIP CITY squads. Fell a little short in epic fashion but this squad was about that action. Rip City was thriving.
Pippen definitely gave the team structure on the court . Even in Chicago when Mike was screaming at his teammates ,he was the one who would give them advice and then come double if they needed help . I really enjoyed his game
No the Bulls players got sick and tired of Pippen Leadership in the 94-95 season, he almost was traded but Jordan returned💯
@@BruceWalls-jk1vy the only reason they were talking trade is because he was a top 3 finisher for MVP, all star MVP and his contract was coming up. His value was sky high. At the time nobody was caring what BJ Armstrong or Luc Longley though of 33.
@@captaincooool No Bulls Management was done with Pippen after the 93-94 season when he quit in the knicks series. The locker room wasnt responding to Pippen no more. Proof is there 23-25 record at All star break of the 94-95 season. The trade fell thru to the suns right b4 MJ returned but pippen was on his way out, he SUCKS as a Leader💯
@@BruceWalls-jk1vyThat’s a complete utter lie. Scottie asked for the trade because of the contract situation,it had nothing to do with the Knicks game. Scottie asked for a trade for years and the Bulls never did it. The players were disappointed with Scottie,but they weren’t done with him by any means,especially when it was an out of character move as many of his teammates said. He also led the team in every statistical category so clearly they weren’t struggling because of him. Losing Horace was a big deal that took away their second best player and best big. Even when Mike came back that was a hole that needed to be filled,which it did by Rodman. I wish y’all stop trying to make stuff up.
@@dakliq420 How in the World you are going to tell me im lying, when I have family in Chicago and I ACTUALLY talked to Scott Williams who PLAYED on that team. He told me the team wasn't the same after Pippen refused to go back in the playoff game against the Knicks. They started the 94-95 season with ugly record by All star break and Bulls management was about to trade Pippen for the Suns Richard Dumas but the trade fell thru. Right after that Jordan returned and DEMAND management to KEEP PIPPEN. SMH, Go do some more research.
The NBA was never going let Scottie win 7, and it made it easy with him being on the Blazers. They were done dirty and Donaghy admitted it. Scottie having no DPOY awards shows how the NBA pulls the strings.
Always thought Blazers Pippen was underrated
Sheed so tough and hard on the floor...nice to see who he is for real...very relatable
The most underrated and under-appreciated player of all time. MJ would have 1 title if he didn’t have Scottie.
You can say that about any player….take away their second star and less or no titles
@@teamcavemanit's true.
You swap out Pippen for another star, Jordan still gets the rings. No disrespect to Pip, one of the greatest to ever do it. Take out Pippen and put in Drexler or Dominique....still 6 rings or more
@@alvinrichmond305 you don't get 2 3peats and a 72-10 season. It's not up for debate. Even Bird and Magic had to beat each other and they both inherited teams with multiple all-stars.
Sans Scottie, Mike wins 2.
@@JamusChristus Wrong, Michael Jordan and Dominque probably beats the Pistons earlier. They probably win 8 rings with Jordan retiring. The only question mark is Wilkins tearing his Achilles. They wouldn't be as good defensively but they make up with that with offense. jordan may rub off on nique to be better defensively
Love hearing some of the greats! We still love yall in the D! I saw 👀 yall face & subscribed 🏀🏀🏀
Pip carried the Bulls often . It Whatin all Mike. It showed when Mike left and they made it to the playoffs without him. Pip was “That Guy Fa Sho!” Sheed and Bonz were too! Loved that Portland Team! Sheen how come u didn’t come back and play wit Dame?
Stop it.
Horace Grant gets disrespected all the time.
A 4-peat 1993-94 Bulls were pursuing. Y’all celebrate being Cavs with 3 starters out for entire series, & 3 wins vs Knicks, with Derek Harper ejected, & suspended 2 games, & Starks wearing a knee brace, fresh back from knee surgery. Bulls had like 6 different players, many were big favored for the second three peat.
@@Mr.anderson3227 I’ll stop when anyone can show me season where Michael Jordan scored every point for the Bulls, every rebound, every steal, every blocked shot and got zero assists because he scored all the points. It is the fake media that needs to stop individualizing team sports
This is why I can't stand Jordan fans. They act as if Jordan didn't have crappy games or get outplayed. There's been times where other players brought the Bulls back when Jordan was screwing up.
P.S. any Jordan fan that tries to tell me prove it, just stop ✋️. You're only embarrassing yourself, exposing yourself, and proving my point 👉.
If not for the Ref. and the Hubert Davis b.s. call.....
Love these two🫡
I Stand on That Game was Called ONE Sided when the Lakers Got DOWN BIG! Portland Had them and I felt like I was watching Arch Rivals Video Game Basketball 🏀 instead of the NBA which allowed LA to Win the game
Not putting Greg Anthony in the 4th quarter in Game 7 cost the Blazers. Derek Fisher was locking Damian up. Greg needed to be on the floor. He would have held onto that lead.
Those bogus calls & no calls didn’t help either.
@@randalldegroat8878 bogus calls & non calls +extra possession rigged quality control cause the blazers to lose
@@randalldegroat8878 Yep! Seems like the refs (and the league) wanted Shaq and Kobe in the Finals.
refs wouldnt call fouls... Damon drove Shaq swallowed him like the greater than equal sign lol... lakers got every touch foul to come back Blazers didnt get any which caused them to lose
@@aneedkassim9727 We can't blame it totally on the refs; the Blazers did indeed choke, but the refs were definitely a 6th man for the Lakers.
Wow glad this vid showed up for me. I hope some faded/jaded comments Scottie has made the last couple years doesn’t affect his legacy. Most of the comments are correct on here. Pippens game should be the avatar of basketball played as a whole. Do all the disciplines well, he played his role. Not his fault his role just happened to be behind the greatest of all time. Not every player would be able to do that.
Loved that Blazer team too
All the crackheads coming out the bushes vouching for entry-pass-pip😂😂
That Blazer team was so loaded with Pip, Bonzi, Stoudamaire, Steve Smith, Sheed, Detlef Schrempf, Sabonis, Jermaine O'Neal, Greg Anthony.
I wish these are the stories we hear about with Pip instead of him trashing Jordan. I think he's hurting his own legacy.
People always thought I was lying when I said I liked Pippen more than Jordan! I’m not the only one
PIP IS MOST KIND UNSELFISH HUMAN AND POSSIBLE BEST TEAM PLAYER IN HISTORY. U START FRANCHISE WITH BIRD, HIM, OR GARNETT.
@PIP...33 Pippen couldn't even start his rookie year in 87 , but in revisionist history ur saying Pippen can be a franchise player now? 😅😅😅.
U gonna start ur team with a player who couldn't even get the start over Brad Sellers and I'm sure u don't have a clue who TF Brad Sellers is either 😅😅😅.
But hey to each is on good luck starting a franchise with a player like Pippen lol
@@g24deez YEAH DERANGED, JORDAN COUYLDNT EVEN WIN 30 GAMES AS AN STARTER TILL PIPPEN STARTED.
@@g24deez KOBE BRYANT WASNT STARTER FIRST 3 YEARS U DERANGED.
@@g24deez Guys like KG , Kobe also didnt started at all , Sam Mitchell told that when they started Garnett thats they becomes more better. Kobe wasnt even in starting 5 despite fans voted him all-star. So better dont open mouth anymore.
I love hearing the stories from the other NBA players growing up in the 90s and pippin was my favorite player for the same reason because I could not be like Mike lol
Scottie was a great, him and MJ were the perfect duo, I personally hate the rift between them right now it comes off as jealousy because MJ has stated many times that he couldn't have won the championships without Scottie, he was a top five player in the league during there run if not the second best player but MJ was that dude rather you liked him or not
Lmao 🤣 Jordan fanboy alert. Stick to worshipping Jordan and move along. You're a fake Pippin appreciator
Nawwww Mike ran his mouth like Jada Pinkett on that last Dance BS doc. He didn't need to air certain things out ... like his shit didn't stink. They never mentioned Mike getting his Pops killed but he shitted on everyone else.
@@cochisefromcoolyhigh796the stuff on last dance about Pip were facts and mostly known. Saying MJ killed his dad is not fact but opinion based solely on people trying to knock him down
@@teamcavemanFacts or not, it wouldn't have been in the doc if Mike didn't approve it. They could have painted Pippen in a better light if they chose to. I was looking forward to hearing about the season the Bulls played without Jordan and they summed up that season by only focusing on Scottie checking himself out of that game. In fact, they spent more time talking about Jordan playing baseball than they spent on that Bulls team.
@@ContextReallyMatters as much as many of us care about basketball, the story of that season was not Pippen. They mentioned all the important things about the Bulls that year. But most fans found out more about things we didn’t know about MJs baseball season, and why he came back. They mentioned Pippens great season and near mvp. That they added kukoc and where they finished. What else happened that you wanted them to mention? These are the reasons for MJ coming back and putting the Bulls back on top. Even pip on television asking MJ back. Maybe if 1995 was like 1994 and baseball didn’t strike and the fans, players, and even Pip, MJ wouldn’t have come back and there would be no last dance series.
MJ taught Pip to be a professional. All those years playing with, against and working out with MJ molded an already good player into a great player and professional. Makes me so sad now to see all the crapping he's doing on their combined legacy because of perceived slights and insecurities.
I love scottie he was a bad man on the court true champ
I’d pay to see a Scottie Pippen movie from Arkansas through NBA.
The Portland Blazers and The Kings was legit teams . Similar to what I heard of those Milwaukee Bucks from 80-87 .
Those 80’s Bucks teams are up there in the best teams to never win a championship. They just ran into other legendary teams like the Moses-Dr. J Sixers and Bird Celtics
From 1-15 or what ever. ...Those blazers teams were the most talented rosters during that time.. Shaq was just a superhero
Shaq and Kobe were superheroes!
The NBA did not want Pippen to get that 7th ring, because all of their marketing is based on Jordan being the 'goat'. Combine that with Portland being a small market, that's why the refs did not allow Portland to win in 2000.
BS
Dude just freaking stop it
Yeah right.
Dude...it's wouldn't surprise me considering the Donahey shit. He was just the one that got caught, bet
Real talk. Only lakers fans might disagree.
2000, 2002 & 2006 still makes me mad. Absolute bullshit. Clearly attempted rigging (and succesful) by the NBA
Pip was always an excellent all around player. But he choked on his last few chances. His teammates weren’t helping him much either.
Pip was never the guy to carry a team.
Pippen was my favorite player growing up. Scottie never got enough credit for the Bulls success. That Blazers team should have won the title! They were stacked.
Pip is a legend
Good on Scottie Pippin, paying it forward. He earned the status to be that dude, too. ...Not another distraction on the Bulls. IMO The Last Dance, intentionally or not, was a slight to Scottie Pippin
Pippen always been my fav growin up
PIP IS MOST KIND UNSELFISH HUMAN AND POSSIBLE BEST TEAM PLAYER IN HISTORY. U START FRANCHISE WITH BIRD, HIM, OR GARNETT.
Was cheering for u guys to win, against lakers, in Eugene OR ..
Stern prevented Pip's 7th in Portland to protect MJ..
Lowkey, Scottie did look like a superhero.
Best two way player EVER and most skilled
Respect to bonzi calm demeanor. He was a goon on that court!!
Pip proved after Bulls he ain't that dude that can win a chip as lead guy, he could only win with MJ because he needed a ruthless winner to get the best out of him.
Nah the refs cheated the Blazers lol.
@@realjcoop182Pippen choked like he did in Houston and in 94 with a 3peat team
I loved Pippen growing up, he was my guy in the Bulls, the Rockets and the reason why a little kid from Argentina like me became a long time Trail Blazers supporter. That team was pure magic!
The league was never going to allow Scottie to get 7. The way those series were officiated, it couldn’t have been more obvious. Stern always did everything he could to protect his baby.
that Jail Blazer Team was nice!
Between the league wanting the Lakers in the finals, and the league not wanting Scottie to get a ring without Jordan, Portland never stood a chance.
It really annoys me that the MJ doc strengthened the narrative that Pippen was a sidekick instead of a key cog. Even MJ gave him his flowers, it was the MJ stans
Despite Pippen being a great player teams feared the Bulls because of MJ, knowing that you have the best player in the league on your team has to allow you to play with great confidence while your game flourish, practicing against Mike helped his confidence I'm sure
A fact new fans don’t want to acknowledge. MJ was a true alpha leader.
Mj never made the playoffs without scottie. Scottie on the other hand did. He also lead the league in points and steals the year Jordan retired
@@cryptoak9620 that is false. MJ made the playoffs every year without Scottie, as a Bull. Don’t speak if you’re going to lie.
@@cryptoak9620 Scottie was 11th in scoring, and 3rd in steals. Stop lying
That’s why Pip was so ripped,pause…he spent less break time between reps, kept them muscles active for long stretches.
Nope!! Scottie was and is a selfish buster who was overrated on offense!! On defense scottie was sensational but not better than mike!!
😊how many games did you see live? Or are you talking from watching RUclips reruns?
Cause you're crazy!
Thanks for paying Homage to Scottie Pippen guys. That Portland team was more then capable of winning the championship if it wasn’t for that epic comeback by Kobe in the 4th quarter. I was there to witness the lakers come back as I worked at the staple center. I thought the lakers was gonna lose as they was down double digits and Kobe (rip) led the way with some timely shots and Bshaw 3’s with Kobe lob to Shaq to cap it off. Scottie wasn’t the same with the back injuries but that Trailblazer team was lethal with a bunch of shooter and young Jr Rider, Stoudamire, Steve Smith, Pip, Shed, I believed Sabonas was on that team as well Damm they were talented smh. Lakers should of lost thank GOD they didn’t
People feel free to let me know your opinion on this, do you think, if Pip won a ring with the Bulls when MJ first retired, that it would affect MJ’s GOAT status?
It would have, that’s why the NBA wouldn’t allow it.
man mj never won a playoff series without pippen, it would’ve shown more of pippen effect, i just wished he played with drexler or chuck instead, he could’ve won too
yes this is why Phil sabotaged him with dat Kukoc shit and the refs called the phantom fouls vs the knicks. they the refs rigged the Laker series.
Nah. He never managed to win a mvp or DPOY. Finished 2nd or 3rd a few times.
@@aneedkassim9727Wow. You’re salty. Keep talking all of that nonsense.
Shout out WGN Sports Chicago. RIP Johnny "Red" Kerr -
Scottie should have gotten at east 2 of the finals MVP from the 6 titles.
Which 2? 🤔Hell gimmie 1? I was 19 when they won the first one and had WGN free aswell so enlighten us...
Seattle
@ends15 I would say Rodman over Pip seeing how Shawn Kemp was the number one option
@@elbowgang9715 your right. But the media was never going to give it to Rodman over both Mike and Scottie
Men hell naw shut up
my favorite team to never win a title. They were a joy to watch and the real shame was like I heard Damon say that they should have kept the squad together in particular Jermaine Oneal.
Let’s get this straight, no need to hate on MJ, give PIP his flowers but don’t be in here talking about he carried the Bulls and should have a Finals mvp. Stop it, Pippen was nice but not the dog that MJ was, MJ didn’t mind taking the blame if they loss, Pippen didn’t score when he needed to against the Lakers in that game 7…he’s the vet, we’re they’re some bad calls, of course but nevertheless, he had oppurtunities…AND I LOVED THAT PORTLAND TEAM, I was rooting for Scottie…MJ ain’t losing being up 15 with 7min left
These people are crazy, Mike is legit goat.
Kobe manhandled pippen. I love kobe but I don't think mike would have went out like that
Didn't Scottie lead the Bulls to 1game away from the Finals when Jordan was gone? Yes...yes he did. Jordan never left the 1st round without Pippen and Phil Jackson. Js...
@@draimonshepherd1791no he didn’t
@@keetstyla4190 YES HE DID U DERANGED. JORDAN 1-9 IN CAREER NEVER WON 40 GAMES PRIOR PIPPEN. PIP WON 55 AND WAS ALMOST IN FINALS VS SAME KNICKS TEAM ALONE AGAIN REF SAVED TEAM VS PIPPEN.

Bonzi has the same speaking voice as Byron Scott haha…

Sucks that Portland 2001 team lost to Lakers in WCF I really wanted them to win. Such an awesome team!!
2000*
Wow this was great.
I was so mad after winning big time and losing the 4th quarter. We have to give alot of credits to the REFS😢😮
That Blazers team was deep, Bonzi no one couldnt stopped him low, n Wallace was as beast. I would have wish that Sabonis was younger when he got the the league. 😢
Scottie is the master of the bank shot 💯💯one of the greatest SF OF ALL TIME IF I CANT GET LEBRON I WANT PIP OR WORTY BIRD OR THE FREAK
Did ref Donahue gambled that game 7 away.
That Lakers comeback against the Blazees hurt Me so bad lol ik Pip was pissed & hurt too!!
Those Blazers and Kings squads were STACKED
People forgetting where Pippen learnt to be professional and the demeanor from.
MJ and Kobe outworked and out trained Pip. That’s the difference.
Refs gave the lakers that championship in game 7. Fake 3 peat.
