Cool Scottie Pippen calls Lebron best ever

For the record, can't stand Pippen. Guys an idiot

“Michael Jordan is probably the greatest scorer to ever play in the game, but I may go as far to say LeBron James is probably the greatest player to ever play the game. Not only can he score at will, but he keeps everybody involved. You have to be on your Ps and Qs because everybody is a threat to score when he’s on the floor. Not only that, LeBron James will dominate the game on the offensive end and he’s able to do it on the defensive end as well. He can get in those passing lanes and dominate the game.”

Scottie, "No tippin" Pippin, speaks out, and all Miami listens

Doesn't he live in Miami area? Probably forced to say this to keep from having his barn burned down

What a joke!! Enjoy your 6 rings Scottie because without MJ you would and dont have any. Sorry, but I will take 6 rings and getting no one involved, versus no rings and getting his teammates involved. The rings say it all. Scottie is an idiot, a very ugly one.

Laughable. Better than Jordan. Let's not forget the talent he faced in the playoffs. Pippen is a fool.

Yeah he does but he spent most of the year talking shit about the Heat. I love Lebron but I hate comparisons to Jordan. They'll never be another MJ period

The guy made 108 million in his career. His wife is on the Real Housewives of Miami and they have nice cars, nice home, etc. But I heard something today that he is going broke. His wife is hot with nice tits!

I think in the end, mostly due to being a physical freak, lebrons "prime" will end up being > than Kobe's

the MJ comparison, we will have to see, certainly like with Kobe, has more god given tools

Scottie Pippen

Known more for his on court defense than his off court business sense, former Chicago Bulls star Scottie Pippen lost $120 million in career earnings due to poor financial planning and bad business ideas. Air Jordan’s sidekick blew $27 million on bad investments and spent $4.3 million on a Gulfstream II corporate jet that was grounded after 2 months needing a new $1 million dollar engine.

He should have tipped more..better than losing it

No wonder he is back working with the Bulls, while MJ is living the High Life

He has a place right near me in Fort Lauderdale. He is actually a really nice guy. He always ran full-court with a lot of us at LA Fitness all the time and his son plays little league with some of my little cousins. Always came across really friendly. He never tried to impress us when he was playing BB but one time my friend was talking $hit to him calling a foul and he wouldn't shut up, so on the next play my boy was running with him and he just dunked the $hit out of the ball right in his face. Some pretty funny $hit.

If he is a bad tipper that's fuked up. Have a lot of friends that work in the industry. Fing hate $hitty tippers.

Just heard the actual replay of Pippens comment on James

He "May" be, but he made another change, Tweeted, "IF he continues, he could get to MJ's level".

I guess he wants to continue getting those checks from the Bulls
