Lebron is obviously a superior physical talent to bird.

They have different skillsets so comparing them is irrelevant.

However physical talent and even skills don't account for intagibles.

That being said there isn't a single defender in league history that I would choose over Pippen to guard the perimeter.

I wonder how many of those who think LeBron is better than Pippen actually saw Pippen play or are just guessing.

It ended up being done by Bill Cartwright, who screamed at Scottie with tears rolling down his face, incredulous that one of the league's most unselfish players would undermine that dogfight of a season -- when the Bulls somehow remained contenders with Jordan playing baseball -- by acting so selfishly.

Jackson waited for the room to calm down, judged the moment for what it was, chalked it up as an aberration and moved on. More than a few coaches would have abandoned Pippen, claimed that he lost the team, pushed for him to be traded that summer. Jackson knew that Pippen's mistake came from a complicated place, a Molotov cocktail of insecurity, ego and frustration about his unfair salary. When Jordan left, everyone pushed Scottie to be the leader -- including Jackson -- but the Bulls didn't pay him like other franchise players, and now they were giving away his "You the man!" moment? Jackson wanted to understand why Pippen handled it so poorly, figured it out, determined it wouldn't happen again (hopefully), and defended him going forward. Coaching isn't just about calling plays, riding the officials and figuring out strategies. Really, it's management more than anything else. You manage people. Jackson managed people better than anyone.

Bulls management drew first blood back in '91 when they went across the globe to Croatia trying to woo Kukoc, offering him crazy amounts of money, while they made Scottie's new contract priority # 2. He knew they didn't fully appreciate what he brought to the team. Scottie AND MJ took it to heart and gave Kukoc the business when they played against his team in the '92 Olympics. What followed this was pretty much the final straw.

As a "Chicagoland" native (hate that term) that got heavily dosed with WGN coverage in the 90s, I did.... and I do. It's really not even close. Lebron is more dominant than Pippen ever could have been. And I pretty much hate Lebron. It's just true though. Stats be damned. Lebron is something new entirely. And he's only just begun.... PLEASE BEAT THE HEAT CHICAGO...

MJ was damn lucky Scottie was on his side.

vice versa


Dude was so good on the perimeter with his defense.  You play ball you know how tired you get running around trying to guard quick asss guards.  Pippen did it and did it just as good as anyone. 


Plus his ball handling for someone tall and skinny was damn good.  Can run the offense. 

I always liked Pippen
