At this point Jordan & Isaiah Thomas have a better chance at being cool before Pippen does 😂
Barkley too.
😂
Same thing w/JA Rule vs 50 Cent 🤣🤣
And it’s sad
I think Dennis is speaking from the standpoint of what he WANTS to see happen. But I believe deep down he knows it’s over.
Dennis has no standpoints. His standpoints are nonsense.
He’s the same guy who said he never spoke to MJ while he was with the Bulls.
@@rayleigh8 👍
I do too
There is no beef. Scottie beefing by himself
Thank you!! Bout time someone said this. Jordan has remained silent.
@@princellasmith7562the last dance said enough lol.
He mad cuz MJ's son is smashing his ex.
Michael shouldn't want to repair the relationship. All of the things that Michael mentioned about Scottie in the documentary ACTUALLY HAPPENED! He didn't make anything up. I grew up in Chicago in the 90's and I loved Scottie as a player but I turned away from the television like I was watching a horror movie when he got the ball in the clutch!
Jordan should have mentioned his point shaving & gambling that got his dad murdered. & How the bulls could have had 8 rings if he didn't get suspended from the NBA
@@855haul-you2it’s related to basketball dump dump😂
@@855haul-you2 ...its been over 30+ years and none of that was proven. Even NBA Commissioner David Stern says it wasnt true. Its a known fact that this Commissioner was no bullshitter....he was a straight shooter and if any of that nonsense you are trying to peddle was true, Stern would have called a press conference and told the country and world they found that MJ was doing those things and thrown out of the NBA. Stop with the BS!
This man really said "dump dump"
@@BlackSnoopi That YT censorship is strong. Lol.
6:47 thank you for this explanation. First of all, most professional people are like this. Secondly, when you're as famous as Michael Jordan, loyalty and betrayal are huge factors in a relationship.
I think even for us commoners same goes. Unless you’re used to moving around with dodgy folks.
MJ should NEVER forgive Scottie or Ishah, but should definitely forgive Barkley!
Facts
Right? I hope THEY reconcile. Wasn’t worth ending a friendship over VALID criticism.
Why what happened
I dont think it was just Barkley’s critism of Jordan’s executive decisions as Bobcats owner. I assume it was the last straw that broke the camels back. I think their feud or rather MJ’s feud with Barkley runs deeper than that.
Rodman wearing a snapback 🧢 unsnapped is crazy
I couldnt even focus on wtf he was saying🤣🤣. Also it look like he got a face tattoo on the right side of his face 💀
SAS is speaking as if Jordan is the one in power as far is if Jordan and Pippen will be cool with each other again. Think about it, if Pippen gave a damn about being cool with Jordan he wouldn’t have kept saying what he was saying. It’s not like Pippen said it once, Pippen kept saying negative things about Jordan. Which should tell you, he doesn’t give a damn about being Jordan’s friend
Good point
100% agree. Especially after the Larsa sh*t. I doubt he ever wants anything to do with Jordan ever again
Exactly
People give Jordan way too much power
Says more about Pippen. He’s always saying the faults his had is someone else’s fault. His contract with the bulls was on the owner and GM, the failed experiment in Houston he blames Barkley, being angry at Phil all these years when he sat on the bench cause he wasn’t getting the last shot, etc. Clearly Pippen cares about shit because he cries when it nothing is perfect in his eyes. He kept attacking Jordan and Jordan stayed quiet. Speaks volumes to the type of person Pippen is.
Pippen lost his mind after his ex wife was banging other dudes. Night after night, even Jordan's son is hittin that lmfao 😅
Scottie is taking the easy way out blaming Jordan. Whom should he blame? His ex-wife.
Buy him a mirror. Himself?
His ex wife is not that evil to be blamed. they decoupled long ago before his ex wife date with young rapper and he know it.
Fing deserves it!
Stephen A swears he’s “brothers” with everyone
He does have better connections with NBA players than you ever will though 🤷🏻♂️
@@bigbromcgee7118what does that have to do with anything?
He’s only brothers with the big name people
who tf are u to challenge what hes saying lmao
Stephen doesn't act like a brother only when it's convenient but he's more of a Oreo cookie than anything
They don’t have to be best friends to be the best team that ever graced the nba. You’ll never see a team like that again
2:40 SAS Speaking fax.... Jordan was BEST FRIENDS with Charles Barkley, and has not talked to him for Barkley simply saying Jordan shouldn't be an owner of hornets.... so Pippen has no chance b/c they were not even that close to begin with.
They way Jordan lost that team proves he shouldn’t have been an owner
“Lost”? You mean sold abs made billions from?
@@judohunter1 Mike wanted in on the GameStop stock short in 2021 and put down $500 million thinking he’d see a big win betting on that company to go bankrupt
Long story short is they didn’t, Mike had a $500 million debt hanging over his head. And the only way 2 settle it was to sell the team to the same guy that told him about the stock short in the first place….Gabe Plotkin.
He got finessed out of his own team, so yea I’d call that an L
@@dreadthedreads4567he was going to be richer for the company going bankrupt? I'm going to have to check out short stocks though I get the point of the story.
@@FoxUnitNell just TH-cam it or watch the movie. There are some pretty good explanations out here
i thought they'd be like brothers after winning 6 championships
Can't be brothers with someone who hated you.
Probably were. Til the last dance.
@Amick44, the last straw for Pippen
@@dnice4145 yea after watching that last dance it shows me Michael Jordan had no respect or care for pippen. Putting shit in there that happened when he was playing baseball.
I rather hear it from MJ himself. But I do take Stephen A's opinion real serious on MJ matters.
This dude has exactly 12,876 people who he considers as a brother
Scottie made some bad choices...contracts, women, investing, etc.
He was warned by people whom cared for his own well being. MJ was one of them.
When MJ takes it personal, you better watch out!
When Scottie makes it personal & it's sad!
He destroyed a long time fellowship with the greatest nba player in history! Crawling back wont help now. I hope he gets the mental support he needs.
Pippen doesn't exist to Micheal now and knowing Micheal the way i do its forever.
You mean Jordan didn't know Pippen had animosity towards him sounds a lot like what Isiah Thomas said
He had no idea because Pippen pretended to like him until that documentary came out and Marcus started dating his ex wife.
@tajgibson8776
Yeah that sounds exactly like Isiah Thomas gripe where he looked out for Jordan when he first got to Chicago and later found out how much Jordan hates him when he thought they were cool
@@damionallen8349i think Jordan’s hatred on Isiah stemmed from the fact that his Pistons team was trying to actually hurt, injure, and end his career. And Isiah was the leader of that. Jordan and Magic was cool, so when Isiah purposely spread rumors that Magic is gay thats why he had HIV, it also rubbed Jordan the wrong way and it added to the animosity. Isiah was a known snake in NBA circles. I guess Jordan doesnt want to be associated with Isiah even more.
Mane ain’t no coming back from that with anyone 😂😂😂
Stephen A loves name dropping
I understand what SAS is saying there’s no coming back after Scottie betrayed MJ no condolences to him so Scottie had these feelings of jealousy and bitterness while playing along side MJ Scottie’s ex wife is marrying Jordan’s son now he’s quite as a church mouse
Stephen A has a lot of brothers
You should have also addressed Barkley-Jordan as a parallel example. I feel like you alluded to it at the end…
Jordan wont even work stuff out with Chuck 😂
Love MJ but he's stubborn. He owns charles Barkley an apology. Charles was right with what he said about MJ as an owner of the hornets
I think the public has added to Scottie's anger. Now, any time someone is a number 2 man they're referred to as a Scotty Pippin. And it's always in a negative light. No one ever did this to James worthy.
People hardly think of Worthy. It's Magic + Kareem. I'm not talking about the super informed but rather the casuals, but casuals always knew about Pippin. Worthy doesn't get as much attention as Pippin, right or wrong.
Jordan sim with Larsa, its OVAAA!!!
How great was it hearing SAS say "mothafucka" here 😄
Facts!
I think Scottie doesn’t care to be friends with MJ. They r grown men. Ppl fallout and grow apart, it’s life.
Just goes to show how little I know about basketball because I thought Denis Rodman died years ago😅
Rodman was the first player who knew his value. He went from the Pistons to the BULLS! Wayyyyy before Lebron went to Miami. He played ball for money & fame for real. Rodaman was fu__in Madonna! Madonna! And he sounded smarter than most nba players. Although he does look old as hell.
He lived a full life as they say
Madonna, Carmen Electra, Cindy Crawford..that we know of. Pretty sure he hooked up with other famous ladies.
People can grow and change, especially as they get older. Forgiveness and getting over things is something we struggle with. It’s immature to be 60 plus and can’t get over words.
@oozziehalifa4435
No, it isn't.
Sometimes, people can talk themselves into things they can't EVER apologize for, nor come back from.
Because it's a line that should've never been crossed to begin with.
And not ever forgiving said person doesn't make them immature, it makes 'em intelligent.
Because it shows a level of awareness that you're not EVER gonna allow that person entry into your mix to potentially harm you again.
It's like the old saying goes: when people show you who they are, believe them.
I'm a Scottie pippen fan but he handed this wrong all he had to do was call Jordan expressed his displeasure about the last dance and kept it private with him and out of the media
I love SAS!! Gonna miss him, when he moves on to other things!! SAS =🐐🐐🐐
Wow.
SAS is so cool! He is MJ's friend! His brother!
I thought all this was over Scottie’s wife but this goes back farther I guess
Scottie said he regretted not going to MJ's dad funeral. It's not about extending condolences or not. Mike didn't know that Scottie purposely didn't go until Scottie revealed that recently.
pippen needs to stay off the drugs
@@angel-ij4xv most definitely
Lesson of the day, the person cheering you ON secretly hating on you
Pippen and Jordan didn’t need to be friends off court and they weren’t. Team mates is one thing and friends is another. They don’t have to love one another to play together extremely well.
Do you invite people who you dont consider friends on your private plane, play golf with, invite you to your home with his family, tried to get Pippen millions of dollars through the Nike/Jordan Brand and he rejected it? MJ thought Pippen was a friend....all Pippen was a bitter jealous man towards MJ. Thank God for revealing this to MJ!!! Pippen can take his sorry azz on down the road!!!
Bro you said all this like Scottie gives a damn. He does not!
why is this a topic
Did we bypass Dennis saying more than just Pippen was upset about being recorded and not knowing what the footage was for until The Last Dance came out. Did I miss something? Why should Pippen and other not be upset? Am
I missing something?
Ain’t no coming back from Scottie either. Just like Barkley doesn’t care about being MJ friend again
Barkley said it was Jerrys fauly the reason why Pippin is like he is, but Pippin signed it himself no one forced him too
Pip is still my favorite BULLS player! Am I shocked about his animosity? No! Pip was the only player who would mention MJ only had one assist after MH once again saved the day! I am disappointed though! This was the only duo that seemed to be authentic and magical. Pip never should have made his feelings public! He’s not upset about the contract being talked about. He’s more upset about the 1.8 seconds he sat out! AND THEN TONI WON THE GAME ANYWAY!!! Scottie is way too prideful for his own good! Now it’s hard watchingMJ and Scottie highlights
go back and watch that game though man scottie had gone cold i think he missed his last 3-4 shots before that
@@drodadreads Yeah he did! Scottie was having a good season. Won the 94 All Star MVP. This was the season he led the Bulls in every statistical category. Up until that moment, Scottie was a favorite to win the MVP.
The past exists separately. When you watch those old games, they were close teammates at that time. I find the old games still fun to watch and hope others do too.
@@sarahgraef7907 i definitely enjoyed watching them on the hardwood classics channel
I agree pippen should have handled the situation with Jordan privately and kept that in house
It’s sad cause they haven’t played together in over 20 yrs, there’s no denying that those 2 and the different squads the bulls had accomplished a lot and it’s best to appreciate that and move on seriously they won and kept winning it doesn’t matter the reason which obviously wasn’t because of just single person.
I hate most of my coworkers as well 🤷🏽♂️ they did what they needed to do, I don’t know why Pip seems bitter but I figure it has something to do with promoting his book
No Loss to you, Scottie, you are a Living Legend!!! I appreciate you putting the truth of how you feel, and what rly went down behind closed doors out there for everyone to know.
SAS: I see your POV. Yeah, we all know MJ is the GOAT, not of basketball, but of holding grudges. He is petty AF. Lol
Dennis Rodman did the right thing: If 2 Men, especially 2 Black Brothas have a public beef, you stay OUT of it. You don’t choose sides. Because the minute you say this & that, the streets and the media, remix every word that you said. Prime example: Biggie & 2Pac (RIP)
I don’t care if i saw 2 cats point guns at each other, if someone asked me what i thought about their beef, I’d say all that PC nice stuff too. Or “no comment.”

To find out after all these years He-
Deliberately missed his Dad's Funeral ESPECIALLY the way he died/was killed is fooked up.
*Scotty's the Petty fugga here.*
All r
Rodman still look like he can pull 20 boards a night still
Is Rodman in a sweatshop?
I wondered the same thing?
This beef between Jordan and Pippen is just sad it’s so sad!!!
Larsa should hold an intervention between her two men.
well, ANYONE who ever ask " can " don't have a true 'CREATOR'....no cans, only when('s) in my life...
Pippen has more things to worry about than Jordan. I don’t care about Pippen at this stage either!
Thank you Toni Kukoc for taking THE SHOT! This exposed who Pippen truly is!
Get her Marcus
Scottie Pippen sounds like he needs help. It's really sad. Did Michael Jordan's kid dating Pippin ex wife knock a few screws loose?
Pippen is even being nice to Jordan. After watching that last dance it shows Michael Jordan selfishness. Talking on someone's money when you making 50 million a year on show deals and endorsements while your co star is making on 2 million a year. GTFOH
Makes me sick, sorry Scottie and Mike.
You can’t expect Stephen a to be impartial when it comes to his god
This is weird because its not like they talked everyday even before the last dance 🤷🏾♂️
Yeah probably not
MJ hold grudges, he said so! I totally agree Stephen A.
As a fan I just wish they kept all this shit private
I have never seen you with mj or even an interview with him?
It’s really a ones sided beef
Dennis didn't know Michael, Stephen A! And you don't either..Mr. claim to be a "basketball genius." 😅😅 Dennis say he never even had an off court conversation with Michael nor Scottie.
Once MJ took it personal and sent his son to pounce on Larson Pippen, it was over.
Defend what Michael Jordan did to Chamillionaire aka The Mixtape Messiah! You can't.
Charles Barkley used to be a good friend of Mike's too (and said less publicly about Mike) and they probably won't be cool again either, so you think him and Scottie's relationship can be repaired? Naw lol
No Because Pippen Did Most of The Work In The Finals. The numbers don't lie
So what???🤷🏾♂️
If Jordan terminated friendship with a Charles barkley for giving constructive criticism of him as a gm in public,what makes people think he’d still be with friends with pippen after all he’s said about him in public; bad teammate , selfish, bully,purposely did tgive condolences when his father died. It’s over !
No. MJ wont even forgive Barkely, and Scottie talked wayyyy more smack and way more personal. He literally hates MJ now. MJ will never forgive Scottie.
i dont believe scottie cares to be friends with MJ tho, dude has shown he doesnt give a bleep after everything
@@christophermartinez-eq7rc I dont either. Im just saying that there will never be a reconcialtion because of how MJ is, even if for some reason Scottie wants to reconcile.
Pippen got weird, let’s just say it. This isn’t on Jordan. Pippen should have let that BS go. Pippen should have looked out for himself better.
Doesn't help much that pippens ex is engaged to Jr
Did Scottie asked to be forgiven?
JEALOUSY IS A HELL OF A THING hmmm
Gargamel said yeah I know MJ, then said I know the brother a Lil bit, 😮😮😮why is Jason hamburgler saying SAS needs permission to speak, nahhhh SAS overly sensitive to what Jason said
Pippen don't care, Jordan is an a**hole off the basketball court anyways......They both are gonna be fine....not everyone need to be cool with everyone!
Hell no
Why Would air jordan want to repair it
Doesn't help that Scottie's ex is joining Jordan's family soon
Jordan will not forget pippen comments, and so what ?
They don't need each other any more. They are not trying to win another championship.
So good luck to both of them🙏🙏
I know right. Who cares? They don’t talk to each other anymore, so what? They are each doing well…why are people making this a story.
Mike is a grudge holder ask Charles Barkley
Who will repair their relationship first? Jordan and Pippen or Jordan and Barkley?
Nicki Minaj and Cardi B will settle their beef before this ever happens and THAT one ain't happening either😂. The shit Scottie has said goes BEYOND over the line and over the top. I'm glad Dennis is a hopeful person but, once Scottie mentioned his father's death and saying purposely he didn't offer condolences about that ever to be spiteful. Mike don't play in regards to certain things and James Jordan is one of those things
"I was doing my job"
The bulls exploited pippen. Many players got thier contracts renegotiated during the 1990s. NBA should open an investigation into the bulls pippen contract.
But he was told by the owner himself not to sign this deal because he knew Pippen would be worth more. Jerry
Reinsdorf told him and Jordan that he DOES NOT renegotiate contracts. Now Jerry didn’t renegotiate Jordan’s contract…..what the hell makes you think he’s gonna renegotiate Pippen’s??? 😂
@@killakam5981 if pippen was a whit dude making first team all NBA and first team all defense even a MVP candidate in 1994, making 2 million a year it would have been unacceptable to the NBA. Stop the BS.
@@Oba7 bruh stop the bullshit because that’s not true. Because he had the best player in the fuckin NBA at the time. You’re argument make absolutely zero sense. He wouldn’t renegotiate Jordan’s contract. And you’re talking to a black guy.
Krause even advised Pippen not to sign that contact. MJ also gave same advice. MJ pleaded with management to increase Scottie's salary. Pippen was making some foolish choices. I'll always respect these Bulls' as warriors but the drama today is ridiculous! 🤭
@@conditionallyunconditional5691 its a bunch of bs.
Glad you finally covered those scrawny arms😂😂
I don't think they were ever real friends to begin with.
No Pippen..No rings!
Mj and pippen will get over it. Rich ppl problems
MJ needs to forgive because He couldn't win without Scottie. Facts
Nope.
Nobody told Scottie to go off the deep end either lol
Scottie made himself a fool the last couple years
Before any controversy mj ALWAYS said “ there’s no mj without pippin!”
Mj always had respect for Scottie Pippen
But recent events made Scottie bitter
MJ gives nothing but credit to Pippen. MJ and Phil helped Pippen develop into the great all around player he became but pouting over bad choices you made is not taking responsibility.
BTW, “I’d die w/o you.” was one of my jams back in the day.
And Pippen never won without MJ. Scottie was high ceiling prospect who needed to be pushed to where he ended up. He failed in Houston and he choked in Portland.
@@97NikeSb I disagree. They simply couldn't win without each other
God forgives us for all the sins we committed so who are we not to forgive each other because if you don't your going straight to hell period
Why do they have to have a relationship?
The one thing that makes this stuff even worse or wierd is MJ son is with Pippens ex.
Nice to see Rodman still try to be the “worm” of his past, but in reality he’s become an “old slug” now.
Michael has always been one sided. Without scottie, people wouldn’t say Jordan is the goat. Scottie was the one who helped Jordan reach the finals 6 times and win 6 titles. Jordan was the missing piece but Jordan couldn’t win by himself without Scottie. If the relationship is unrepairable, then it’s really over.
you can say that about the other 3 guys on the court as well
literally no one cares
No
