Agreed with this, it's also why Dallas' championship in 2011 is the greatest NBA championship in 20 years. A team of also rans, retirees, and a "weak" superstar beat a super team, and a team with the NBA's 2nd or 3rd greatest player ever in his prime.
Dallas GOAT championship confirmed.
Well the first part is obvious, but he's suggesting the 2nd part. He's saying Pippen was better than Robinson, Hakeem and Shaq.Pippen was the second best on the bulls, not in general.
I always sort of felt he was a bit overrated. I mean he's obviously a great player, but not an all time all time guy.There was also this chump named Karl Malone.
Gaige...even Pippen knows his game was what is was because of Jordan. Do you remember how ridiculous Jodan was man? The Jordan rules? Pippen was good. Not great. You could take almost any 2nd tier good rounded player and set him next to Jordan, and get what you got out of Pippen.
I think that's severely downplaying how good Pippen was, especially defensively. There's a reason Chuck Daly called him the 2nd best player on the Dream Team when he coached them.
So two top 5 players + Rodman and you're saying you can't compare the Heat Super team to the Bulls?
Uh... ok.
Ok, compare them. The Bulls didn't lose. Miami did. Hell Lebron is a Ray Allen miracle 3 pointer away from that him being 2-4 in the finals.
Who is saying that Jordan didn't have a damn freight train? I think we all agree there. What we are (at least I am) saying that they came to HIM to win. He worked his way thru instead of running to his buds to start his legacy.
