    "In all the videos, you never just saw me, you saw Scottie Pippen. Every championship."
    I love this statement. Not simply saying "I couldn't have done it without him." Its more like he's saying "We did this together." That's true partnership.

      @@DezWonda That’s right. There’s an extremely short list of athletes who have changed the world. There aren’t multiple athletes in a single sport who have done this. i.e., Ali, The Babe, and Jordan. These athletes are untouchable. To compare them against other athletes, in Deion Sanders’ words is profanity.

But I also will not be a lebron hater and pretend the career he has had is not great and makes him ONE of the goats. Just not THE goat. But I also can admit when Jordan has done or said things that can be criticized or laughed at and the whole "I took it personally " joke from his interviews on The Last Dance is hilarious because I mean the man admitted he created false untrue scenarios In his head just to have a reason to be extra motivated to go out there and try to and usually did demoralize an opponent lol. He took ALOT and created alot of things that he could take personally which is like I said hilarious. Lol so I get it lol

      Chauntel Bland I agree.It is good to look back .Growing up in his era I have to admit especially in the 90's.I got sick of seeing him.I mostly blame the media.The corny commercials ,the movie ,it just got to be too much.I will say this you always knew every night he played you would see something special.But around 97 I was just kind of numb to it.But now man do I miss watching him play.This speech summed up his sense of humor and competitive drive perfectly .People that hate just don't understand the mind set it takes to be at the level he was at and don't now when he is just joking (like about the tickets). My only complaint that I think gets him heat is that he does not give enough props to the players that came before him.Sure he did not have access to watch growing up maybe.But as a player he had to have had access to film at some point in his high school , college, early pro years that would have influenced him.

    • @Yobachi2007
      @Yobachi2007 9 лет назад +21

      Chauntel Bland Being honest and straight forward is hardly mutually exclusive to being arrogant, at all. But it's worst than just arrogant, it's filled with so much bitterness and recriminations. He has his six championships and 5 MVPs, yet he feels the need in this moment to rub the other kids' nose in the sandbox. Except he's not a kid.
      It's not so bad, he wasn't so nasty about it. At the same time though it lacked grace. You would just expect a guy to be more gracious and magnanimous in that moment. You're getting honored, not being debated about the greatness of your career. A little more thanks and gratefulness seemed to be in order.

      That's not the point really. He's a great player and humble... there are plenty of them. Ever listen to Larry or Magic? So you're the greatest of all time. You know what they say, to whom much is given, much is expected. Just because you're the greatest doesn't mean you can't be humble. To be honest, I really didn't have much of a problem with the speech. I thought it was cool to hear how he kept himself motivated. But hearing him talk about his children and how he wouldn't want to be them because they have to carry such a burden following him, was pretty gross, and he wasn't just talking about the high ticket prices. The selfishness in that statement was heartbreaking, imho.

      Truth! The story (first by Adrian Wojronowski of Yahoo) that Michael was petty for this speech was written and maintained by non-athletes and non-competitors.

      At first I thought Michael was just narcissistic. But after watching this video, it's clear that he is in the sunken place. He obsesses over something that's not real. If you told people living in ancient times who lived off the land and went to war to keep their land that a man became famous as the best person at putting a ball in a circle, they would be puzzled. The TV gives us not only our heroes but our own aspirations. It put Michael in the sunken place wanting to participate in and win a childhood playground activity forever, a dark realm where your imagination creates for you false realities that you then excel at in the make-believe world of Hollywood, TV land.

    Not only is Jordan the GOAT. He’s a real old school man’s man . Nothing pretentious or soft about him. He’s humble and his confidence was earned . He’s the personification of greatness .

      @@lionelsheja6381 Pippen is just flat out jealous of Michael Jordan and wants his life. It's textbook covetousness. the situation with his ex-wife and Jordan's son is only a small part of it. Pippen has had this resentment for Jordan brewing within him for decades. You could possibly say it started with the contract he signed with the bulls which he wasn't able to renegotiate.
