It takes two to tango and Scottie was definitley the cornerstone of a legacy. As a die hard Bulls fan it gives me pride to see Scottie inducted, just as it did when MJ got inducted. Those were the golden days, summer bar be ques in June watching the finals almost become a yearly routine! That is until some guy named Krause decided to pull the plug at least two years prematurely…blah.

Sadly class-less off the court, him and Stacey King attempted to hook-up with all of Cook and Lake county. His shoe line kinda sucked his NIKE Flights were really generic. People also forget that Toni Kukoc was a Croatian-Rookie Magic Johnson. 6 feet 11 inches and could play all 5 positions and could hit the 3 with the best of them. Pippen always had talent around him and was coached by the best.

Maybe he could have won a ring without #23, but only hometown fans give props for “could have’s”. Don’t expect outsiders to give credit for something that never happened.

By the way, in the ’93-’94 season Pippen was in his prime, he had battle-tested teammates, the same coach and the same system…and he was bratty as hell and didn’t even reach the Finals. Facts are facts. The 1.8 second incident just solidified what people outside of Chicago already thought; he’s a selfish prick.

He deserves to be in the HOF but don’t expect non-Bulls fans to adore him as you do.

It was the 2nd time in history a player lead his team in the 5 major categories (his steal total was best in the league that year as well). 1st was Dave Cowens (Celtics ’77-’78)and only 2 times after Kevin Garnett (T-Wolves ’02-’03) and LeBron James (Cavs ’08-’09).

BUT PEOPLE DID WE 4-GET TO MENTION THAT SCOTTIE PIPPEN HAD THE GREATEST IN YOUR FACE DUNK OF ALL TIME. EVEN BETTER THAN JORDAN. When Scottie dunked in Patrick Ewing’s face and pushed him to the ground like a b!#$% and stood over him like his daddy. Til this day I haven’t seen a in your face dunk more vicsious than that one. I shed a tear when I watch that on youtube. Remember Mike needed Scottie to win all those rings just like Scottie needed Mike. Their combo is a metaphor today for what a team needs to win a ring. When they talk about Wade, Lebron, Kobe, and Carmelo it is said that they need a Scottie to win a ring. Last season Kobe got his Scottie in Pau and what a shock he won a ring.

He deserved more fame and fortune than he got being under the shadow of MJ. Loved the Statue of Liberty dunks. Bulls fans and real basketball fans appreciate his greatness and know he is well deserving.

If he had the balls to let a contract expire he would have gotten big bucks from Reinsdorf. Being “underpaid” was his choice. Her just regretted his decision after it was too late.

If I was Cleavland I would just forfeit the rest of the games, or sign a bunch of d leaguers. And yes pip was the man, HOF no brainer. Dude was a defensive ace, and the bulls would’ve won 8 chips in a row if Micheal didn’t have gambling problem…err went play baseball…
