So does that make him the greatest player to ever play the game?” “LeBron will be the greatest statistical guy to ever play the game of basketball,” Pippen said. In the interview with King’s podcast, Pippen also dished out high praise to Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James – the player whom many debate is Jordan’s equal, if not his superior. Pippen appeared to double down on his comments and his own impact in the league a day after his podcast appearance in an Instagram post with a picture of himself during his younger days accompanied with the caption: “From humble beginnings to 6 championships, 2 gold medals, Hall of Fame, and leading the Bulls franchise with the most playoff wins. In the 1986/87 season, Jordan averaged 37.1 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.6 assists, 2.9 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. Jordan played three seasons with the Bulls before Pippen was drafted to Chicago. Pippen and Jordan look on during the game against the Milwaukee Bucks on January 17, 1997. It was scoring.”ĬNN has reached out to both Jordan’s representatives and the Charlotte Hornets, the team which Jordan owns, for comment. He was a player who was really not at the top of his category. All of a sudden, we become a team and we start winning. You guys have seen him play … He was horrible to play with. “I’ve seen Michael Jordan play before I came to the Bulls. However, speaking on his former Bulls teammate Stacey King’s podcast ‘ Gimme the Hot Sauce’ on Friday, Pippen described Jordan as a “horrible player.” The key roles played by ‘His Airness’ and Pippen in Chicago’s success featured prominently in “The Last Dance” on Netflix – the acclaimed documentary series detailing Jordan’s time with the franchise, in particular, his final year with the team in the 1997/98 season.
2 the Robin to his Batman – in this instance, that was Scottie Pippen. The run was spearheaded by Jordan – arguably the greatest basketball player of all time – but that level of success wouldn’t have been possible without a complimentary No. In fact, the only two years the Bulls didn’t win the title was when Michael Jordan tried his hand at baseball. Between 19, the Chicago Bulls won six NBA championships, in arguably the greatest run in North American sports history.
