This video displays the attributes that make Scottie Pippen one of the best NBA defenders of all-time. Few players, if any, can say they have the complete defensive game of Pippen whether it's one on one defense, perimeter defense, post defense, steals, blocking shots, taking charges. The man simply did it all on the defensive end of the floor and no one to this day has duplicated his defensive game. Hall of Fame inductee 2010. - กีฬา

4:31 cracks me up. Pip blocks the shot, is disgusted with himself for not coming up with the ball and then 5 seconds later as an afterthought he's like maybe I should talk a little trash here...."get that shit outta here Dennis" LOL. And Dennis Scott shouts "And 1" as if he got fouled when he damn well knows he didn't lol. What a great era of basketball. Props to whichever network's mic caught that. You would never see that on ESPN or ABC since they block out cursing during games.
they have to block cursing or they get fined, thats why theres a delay
Lol your the goat for noticing it tho and putting the exact time in the comments
@@be4unvme .
Glad they block it. We dont need that.
I agree, that's some funny shit. Scottie Pippen Mr all around, he was a Badass
Scottie Pippen was a one man, double team. Probably the most underrated NBA player in history simply because he played next to the greatest ever. The fact that the Bulls had Pippen, Jordan and Rodman on 1! team is almost criminal.
Nothing to add, well said.
funny thing is, nobody gave a shit about Rodman until he joined the Bulls. Jackson was a genius for recruiting him as he saw the diamond in the ruff! Boy did the bulls elevate Rodman's game even higher! Such an godly team!
Chesco Not true at all. Rodman was a defensive star on the pistons that won 2 championships and was a DPOY before he went to the Bulls, he was actually a shell of his former self when he played with Chicago. Rodman wasn't even Jacksons first choice, he took Rodman by default, Jackson gets far too much credit.
"The fact that the Bulls had Pippen, Jordan and Rodman on 1! team is almost criminal." As great of a rebound specialist and defense he added he still was nowhere near as valuable to the team as Pippen/Jordan. Don't forget that the team was mostly made up of garbage "helpers".
Mn8 rodman only played 3 seasons with the bulls
this is why the bulls is so elite.
pippen can score and defend
jordan can score and defend
rodman can rebound and defend
Harper could defend too very underrated defender
How dare you not mention horace grant
*rodman can troll and defend.
Tho offense is more valued by audiences hence we have Curry, Harden etc.
Kukoc can score and assist from any position
Pippen would make a seamless transition in today’s NBA!
I agree, he would do well in today's game. They would end up fouling him a lot though!
probably would be the modern version of magic (before lakers fans get all sensitive and start cryin, not sayin he was better than magic ffs) if he was in the right system
I would hate for pippen to play in today's NBA with all the soft ass calls they make in 2020 it would be like watching Jurassic Park before the dinosaurs got out...no action
Absolutely he would. Pippen was the key to the 1991 NBA finals when he was put on Magic who manhandled MJ in game 1.
Somehow Pippen's no where to be found when MJ fans discuss the 6-0 thing. This is why MJ retired in 1998-1999...he knew how difficult things would've been for him with Pippen no longer his teammate.
I think his shooting from 3 would be decent, and his switching ability on defense would be incredibly valuable today especially - he could guard the 1 through the 4, maybe even 5 in today’s game.
Been watching the nba for around 35 years, and Pippen is by far the best wing defender I have ever seen.

Plus he had handles, a middy, decent 3 and will dunk on you.
This is one of the most beautifully created and most important basketball play compilations on the internet.
***** for some reason when i click view all replies they don't show up. Recite them all pls.
Bootum Bootum me too.....
The most startling thing is how not one player is covered with tattoos. This illustrates that there was a time when the NBA was populated by the best and brightest players, not thugs and crossed eyed idiots only looking for a multi-million dollar contract. You watch those fools play, and it's the most boring shit you've ever seen, because they don't love the game, only the money.
I've said it a million times...Pippen is the most under rated player, ever.
WayneP117 yeah true, u are right its only because he played with the greatest player of all time. MJ.
He's well recognized. He's one of the 50 greatest players of the NBA and always regarded as the best if not the greatest perimeter defender. He's a well-known one-man wrecking crew.
The greatest defender in NBA history
I agree, and the fact he's in the hall of fame and was selected as one of the 50 greatest players and still considered under rated says a lot about how good he was!
WayneP117 man why do people praise Scottie when he couldn’t close without Jordan he is a great hustle player but don’t act like this man was averaging 40 5 and 3 in a season
Arguably the greatest defender in NBA history
100%
😂😂😂 greatest
Terry Crews kawhi up there with him
Greatest defender nope. Jordan was greater. But both of them are top 15 defenders
Cowboys 4Ever lol pippen was a better defender than mj
Scottie Pippen has always been my favorite player. All around player. Consistent energy from 1st quarter to 4th. High basketball IQ.Athletic and passionate.
He played perfect defense. It was a beauty to watch Scottie go to work on defense.
Yes it was.
I enjoyed watching Pippen on defense more than watching MJ on offense.
My eyes were glued on Pip even when he wasn't defending the man with the ball. He would direct his teammates where to go and make sure everyone was in the right spot.
Defense is boring. I could give a shit about the defense wins games slogan fuck that I wanna see some offense.
@@alejandroechenique414 a petition should made,and this should be the slogan, lol.....you are 1000% right ✅
@@alejandroechenique414 I hope you're joking.
Michael Jordan practiced against that everyday
good point
R. C.P MJ made Pip better in everything and Pip returned the favor by making MJ's skills better in Offense.
Jordan cloned himself with Pip.. Pip practiced against MJ everyday. LoL
I crack up when i hear Warriors fans say they wuld beat Chicago. Nothing against Warriors, but MJ would be the difference on Offense & Pip would be difference on defense
They helped each other honestly
MJ guarded Pippen
Pippen practiced his defense against the GOAT everyday.
The best defensive highlight video of all-time
Pippen doesn't just steal the ball from his opponent, he steals it with elegance and art.
Precise tecnique. You learn basketball seeing him.
Scottie Pippen is my all time favorite player. He is the most disrespected Superstar in NBA history. He is without a doubt a top 25 all time greatest player yet no one gives him the credit he deserves. smh
how on earth most disrespected in youre selected one of the 50 greatest players of all time?, also his partner MJ always acknowledge him in every interviews,
Kobe is the most disrespected legend, just because his game is like/better than jordan he becomes an afterthought.
Aditya Singh better?cmon man I agree he is the most disrespected and deserves a top 10 spot but mj is the original
Aditya Singh Kobe is not a better than MJ. He could only copy the 96-98 version of MJ. No one could copy the athletic version (84-93) of MJ.
😭😭😭💓true why?
Some noticeable players he could defend man-to-man:
PG: Magic Johnson, Penny Hardaway, Mark Jackson
SG: Kobe Bryant, Clyde Drexler, Tracy McGrady
SF: Larry Bird, Dominique Wilkins, Grant Hill
PF: Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Chris Webber
C: Patrick Ewing, Alonzo Mourning, Vlade Divac
He's gotta be proud of this!
He had a lot of trouble against Penny one on one for some reason. Penny generally had his way.
TheRoseExperience I highly doubt that, because perhaps what you have been seeing online are his highlights, which only showcases the good stuff. There's a point that the Bulls' had Scottie guard him for an entire series and beat the Magic 4-0.
TheRoseExperience I still remember the game where Horace Grant came back to the United Center for the first time after going to Orlando as a free agent in '95. Pippen was a man possessed in that game and locked down Penny something fierce. I don't think Penny even scored double digits in that game. And in the '96 ECF Penny had a great Game 1 but Pippen pretty much held him to a sub-par series after that on the way to a 4-0 sweep by the Bulls.
Dennis Rodman able to defense every player for his era except Kareem's Skyhook + The Dream's Shake...
Roughnight
Rodman actually played decent defense on Hakeem at times
Look up "Rodman good defense on Hakeem"
Like the late Kobe Bryant said, “YOU WANNA LEARN DEFENCE.... WATCH SCOTTIE PIPPEN”. R.I.P!! Mamba for Life!!
PIPPEN was a ONE MAN WALL though to break!!
It really warms my heart that this video has as many views as it does. So many people wanting to see true defense be played....scottie in my opinion was the best nba defender ever
say what you want, but Jordan wouldn't have won 6 without Scottie. One of the most underrated player ever.
YES!! Thank you Jay! So true...
Jay Kim I agree with you 120% Jordan wins nothing without Scotty, and vice versa
same for all the great players. Bill Russell wouldnt have won 11 without Sam Jones, John Havlicek, Tommy Heinsohn, KC Jones, Bill Sharman, Bob Cousy.
Goes for a lot of other greats
team work👍🏻
problably the most underrated player ever.
this was the most exciting basketball team to watch (72-10).
not only pippen... having jordan , pippen and rodman in defense is just mean :D
ollihro82 yeah of course
that's why i wrote TEAM
ollihro82 ikr, so so mean
Pippen is a 1st ballot Hall of Famer, top-50 player of all time, and universally regarded as one of the best defensive players of all time. In no world is Pippen underrated.
Simon Wilder By some he is. Not all give him his due. In general, get your point, though.
The greatest defender of all-time!
No... He's at least 3-5 in that discussion
Of All-time bro. That dude was an anomaly and was screwed out of at least 3 DPOY awards
@@janseanhernane3191 Cut it out
@@paulg6921
Still not gonna put him over Rodman, Wallace, or Russell
Would put Rodman over him since they could both lock up 1-4 but Rodman could lock up 5. Rodman can literally lock up any position
Pippen was the leading vote getter on the NBA All-Defensive First Team, voted by the coaches, 4 consecutive years, in 1994, 1995, 1996, and 1997, and as far as I'm concerned, that's the REAL DPOY!
1994: Pippen 1st (45/52 pts); DPOY: Olajuwon 3rd (35 pts)
1995: Pippen 1st (46/52 pts); DPOY: Mutombo 2ND TEAM!! (26 pts)
1996: Pippen 1st (55/56 pts!!); DPOY: Payton 3rd (48 pts)
1997: Pippen 1st (53/56 pts); DPOY: Mutombo 3rd (50 pts)
Scottie Pippen NEVER won the Defensive Player of the Year award, and that may be one of the biggest travesties in sports. Why? Because the DPOY is voted by the media, and they know squat about real defensive talent. You know who recognized that Pippen was the best defender of the 90's? The coaches!
Thank you, sir for this! My favorite player of all time!
Bruh opposing coaches can’t watch every game of an opponent. But congrats on that accomplishment. Phil Jackson shitted on coaches voting for Kobe, who he watched every practice, & game, still making defensive teams, when Phil, Kobe’s own coach, felt he didn’t deserve it. Tex winters also said the same about Kobe. Now this isn’t saying Pippen didn’t deserve it, but it’s saying that coaching system, is sometimes flawed. Then missing 38 games and making 1st team defense in 1998 is questionable.
I'm sorry, but as great as he was it was a big man dominated league those years he won DPOY. The truly best anf more unstoppable offensive players were PF/Cs
Even though the Bulls were the most dominant team, there's no argument for his versatile impact on the defensive end being above the likes of Robinson or Olajuwon those years or even Mutombo.
He was better than Jordan defensively an they gave him one over him
@@jaybrick8973 Are u kidding me, right? Go check which year MJ won his DPOY. 1987-1988 season! That was when Sottie was a ROOKIE AND didn’t even START one game, averaged 20 minutes a game. Yeah, he shoulda won the award?!?!!
James Harden disliked this video
haha it has 13 likes to
Moneyminty lol totally
Why?
In que me la
James Harden watched this video and the refs called a foul on the video.
I'm not a huge basketball fan but i sure do like watching the greats. scottie pippen was a great basketball player!
The best perimeter defender I have ever seen! Pip was a joy to watch
Pisses me off he never won DPOY
that is a travesty
Pippen was the ultimate all rounder basketball player and not to forget a very smart and intelligent one too. To make a successful offensive play is a great attributes of any basketball player but to be able to read opponents offensive plays and counter them with your defensive moves and make an successful offensive play out of it when least expected, now that is a legend my friends, that's Scottie Pippen.
The total package player i loved the bulls threw out those years 👏 not for m.j. scottie the realgoat
I see a lot of Scottie Pippen in Kawhi Leonard... Leonard could easily be the 20-6 guy Pippen was and also plays incredible defense
I think Scottie and IGGY are similar.
Rican GuitarGod ur right, Iggy and Scottie are more assertive where Kawhi is different personality wise
Pippen is a better play maker though. Leonard's play making will get even better though, hopefully.
Scottie Pippen was a complete player in his prime!
Scottie Pippen is my favorite all time player. Seriously underrated. AFter Jordan left, he led the team in every major category.
Real talk .
He is mine as well pip was in the most complete player in history in my opinion.
His game was smooth and his dunks ferocious, how he posterized Ewing, Barkley, Malone, and Morning...wow
In today’s NBA he will be the best player
Pippen would be even greater in the NBA today than he was in the 90's with his 3's and D ability.
Preach it brother LOL
Kawhi Leonard lives that legacy.
He's also a point forward
Pippen playing in today's NBA would be like him playing a pick-up game against pre-schoolers.
& his play making abilities
I just loved watching Pippen defend. Or play at all. He was a joy to watch.
Forever underrated.
Disagree, he's regarded VERY highly. He's a top 20 player all-time, and I don't think anyone would disagree. He gets his due. I live in Chicago. Believe me, nobody underrates him in these parts.
+MichaelMick He gets overshadowed by Jordan's stature and aura. Jordan fanatics think he's done it all by himself but I'm sure Chicagoans have a different perspective since I'm sure they appreciate the overall team.
It's so true. I always think about when people scoff at Lebron being mentioned with Jordan or Kobe. They always bring up Jordan's 6 titles. People tend to forget Jordan had an All-star team playing with the Bulls...Rodman & Pippen are two of the best defensive players in NBA history. Jordan was great, no doubt, but you need team depth to accomplish their wins. The Bulls in 96 have arguably the best defense in NBA history with their length, speed, intelligence, and pure determination. They had Toni Kukoc, the NBA 6th man of the year in 96, who was their 3rd leading scorer for 3 years in a row. Steve Kerr..the list goes on and on.
Thank you, let me confirm that you are absolutely correct. I grew up in Chicago, lived there during all their championship runs. Even then, I thought the Bulls were a great TEAM. Jordan was a star component on the team but honestly, even without Jordan, the Bulls were still good enough to be contenders in the East.
Jordan is also one of the greatest defensive players in nba history.
This showed every aspect of defense to its very highest degree! 🏁
Scottie, what CAN'T you do? Absolutely nothing ❤ I watched you do it all in this video. Thanks for all the years you've given us every time you were on the court. Thanks for being such a good leader, humble and classy.
Greatest defender ever. Simply amazing.
I watched Russell play Chamberlain...I saw Oscar Robertson, , Larry Bird, Jordan, Kareem...etc. I've seen most of the greats. I never saw anyone as good as Pippen.
I hope you're talking about on the defensive end...
larry bird has zero D, you are joking
His post-up defense is simply unbelievable, he pokes and steals the ball from the opposition with ease.
Imagine if we had pippen in todays game? he would’ve ended so many todays’s superstars careers before they even started.
I love every video you've made of Pippen, and I read someone's comment in this video saying, "You only showed steals and blocks". I told him, "People don't understand how to watch for Pippen's ability to prevent the other team from making the smooth entry pass due to Pippen always threatening the lane. As a fan you watch the player with the ball, so it's hard for almost anybody (other than a good coach) to see how amazing Scottie was at blocking or threatening the lane. He literally prevented entire teams from playing their normal sets... but without a video that includes narration describing this along with someone drawing circles on the screen (like Kenny Smith) it would be impossible to just run a video of Scottie's finer defensive skills, because most would be blind to see those skills. Plus each video would have to be 30 minutes long if you include all his hustle plays, etc that weren't just steals or blocks lol
Thanks good to know everyone ain't mj blinds on. S.P. GOAT
Sounds like you really understand how the game is played. Well said. Wish more people have your knowledge.
Pippen is super underrated. This video proves just how GREAT he is!!!
by far the most underrated player ever
Jordan is the G.O.A.T., great all-around volume scorer in both isolation and off the ball, elite defender and rebounder for his position, an assassin in the final 6 minutes in the game, and a fiery competitor who always played with a chip on his shoulder. He was the face and hero of the league and delivered.
But Pippen deserves just as much credit in the Bulls championships. Pippen was the anchor of the Bulls pressure defense and he was the playmaker who kept his teammates involved in the offense throughout the entire game. He took on the toughest defensive assignments on the perimeter and kick-started many of the Bulls runs by creating a turnover on the defensive end and either finishing on the fast break or knocking down a pull up three-point shot. Pippen also lent moral support to his teammates after MJ lashed out at them. Pippen made the Bulls play better as a team.
And the Bulls' elite pressure defense and the reliability of his teammates to make an open shot in crunch time gave the opportunity for MJ to be the finisher in the final six minutes. And Pippen made that happen. And MJ knows it.
Jordan said playing 1 on 1 wit Pippen to his game to the next level
can't help but wonder just how hard it would be for modern nba players to play against Pip, they would crumble under his pressure is my guess
Yes
They finna cross him over many times
They would adapt like all humans do.
Not KD🤷🏾♂️
These modern day players would cry like little girls if they had to face guys like Pippen
Wow, I am really amazed on how good Scottie Pipen was. I never really pay attention to his defense, wow he was good.
One of the best basketball videos on youtube.
Greatest SF of All time!
petey1115 Larry Bird!
Calvin Odom Good One.
+Drew “Franklin720” Filson i gotta agree with u he had it all rebounding passing and the greatest shot and defense
+Drew “Franklin720” Filson never!
+petey1115 LeBron > pippen
pippen the best defensive player ever
Bill Russell
+thug8200 Olajuwon
Should've won multiple DPOY awards.
When MJ practiced against him everyday. Lol no wonder why everything looks easy for MJ. He got two of the most defensive players ever played to practice and guard him every single day of practice. 📍
Pippen would lock up steph easy.
Sirius Rogers. nope
+Sirius Rogers. Lol is that even a question? Pip would make Curry cry
He'd make curry quit basketball
***** Michael Cooper, Sidney Moncrief, Payton and Tony Allenwould all lockdown Curry
lol Curry is human, its not like hes a god. He can get shut down/slow down
those were the days.
The freaking memories,,, dammm I miss this so bad,,,, long live the greatest team ever Chicago Bulls,,,💯👍❤️✌️
He moves like a stealthy cat. So agile, one of a kind player in a century.
Pippen never winning DPOY is the biggest robbery in nba history fr
Tim Duncan as well
i hate when people say jordan made scottie. That not true. Scottie played some of the best defense i have ever seen but the media just thinks of jordan as god saying "look at how jordan is making all stars" its bull (no pun intedened) scottie is someone who i want on my dream team. He can shot the J then play great defense.
Michael Jordan has had enormous impact on Scotties defensive ability. But it took great talent and hard work from Scottie to be able to reach that level of defensive mastery. But there is no doubt that MJ has taught a lot of things to Scottie when he joined the Bulls in 1987
i totally agreee.MJ made Pip that great defender that he was,thats obvious.Pip had to guard him every day,in every practice.And MJ didn`t take one day off as we know.I cant imagine what it must have been like,to compete every day against the greatest scorer in the game..-
If that was the case than the bulls wouldve been compared to a team like the pistons in terms of defense. Chuck daly was a coach who focused on defense while phil was balanced but more about scoring. Scottie was the only major defensive threat on that team. And before anyone gets butthurt notice how i said MAJOR their were people (like grant) who was good defensivly but scottie was the one who really brought it to the team.
The only one who's butthurt is you. MJ was the best defensive player on the Bulls team even after Pippen's appearance. MJ has had more than 200 steals and 100 blocks 2 seasons in a row. There is no doubt MJ has taught a lot of things to Pip. What are u trying to deny? That MJ has had a great impact on Scottie's defense? Don't try that.
bro calm down all i was saying if mj had an impact on one player than why didnt he have an impact on the starting lineup. Hell I could be wrong but if that was the case (as I stated in my previous comment) they would be compared to defensive teams such as the pistons. I dont think you understood me.
What a treat to watch the awesome Scottie Pippen here. Great highlights vid.
Great video. One of my all time favorite players and he deserves all the recognition he can get for his contribution to the game.
I'm personally tired of the "Jordan made Pippen" myth. If Jordan was never on the Bulls, Pippen would've still been great. He wasn't selected 5th overall in the 1987 draft for nothing. He was the 1994 All-Star MVP, led the Bulls in every stat, and is the all-time playoff steals leader. The only season he missed the playoffs with a losing record was his final season, when he was injured for 50+ games.
Did you ever hear about Pippen before he was drafted? I think not so stfu. Not trying to take away from Pippen but Jordan made that man the defender and offensive player he was.
Did you watch Pippen's rookie season when broadcasters were already predicting that Pippen would become a star? I think not so stfu.
I heard of Pippen before he was drafted. Most people probably wouldn't know this but the Bulls thought they had Pippen completely hidden before the draft and were at a safe spot to get him. However, many teams saw Pippen's skill in the pre-draft workouts and were very intrigued which is why Jerry Krause went into overdrive trying to move up in the draft to snatch him. Being a Pistons fan I remember an article on Chuck Daly seeing Pippen's skill in the pre-draft camps and was in awe. Detroit's GM Jack McCloskey boldly predicted that Pippen was going to be a superstar before he was even drafted and Detroit desperately wanted to get him but couldn't swing a deal.
pippen made MJ it's a fact 1-9
+mikey James Then why is Pippen not considered the GOAT? Where are his 6 finals MVP's and 5 league MVPs?
Damn that was a Masterpiece
I've been watching videos of Jordan, Stockton, Bird, Bryant, Rodman, Curry, but this video impresses me more than all of the others. Pippen plays like his life depends on it
Superb video. I have heard about Scottie recently. Thanks for this film. Keep calm and I want to greet the fans of basketball all around the world.
Scottie Pippen was one of the elite defenders of all time which goes to show just how great Michael Jordan was. Check out what their teammate Craig Hodges had to say...
"I can remember this one time in, I think 1990 when Scottie decided to challenge Michael one day in practice", Hodges said. "Michael kind of backed up for a half-second. Then he proceeded, literally, to score on Scottie at will. It was incredible. I mean, Scottie Pippen even then was one of the best players in the league and Michael just rained points on him. Scottie had to step back and say, "Slow up, man".
Scottie in his prime would shut Lebron James down.
He could shut just about anyone down. Even MJ but lucky for him he was on his side lol
JYPark14
Yeah, lucky for Mike.... Lol
I don't know about shutting him down, but I doubt anyone would've done a better job, and Pippen may have succeeded throwing him off his game.
BM3O8 couldn't have said it better myself
You guys are morons. Pippen would give Jordan and Lebron trouble. But he wouldn't shut them down. It's freakin MJ and Bron
Scottie and Jordan were such a great defensive duo. People focus on the flashy offense but those bulls teams could shut you down. I remember the term "unleashing the doberman's" their full court press lead to much frustration for their opponents. And this was back when playing zone would get you and illegal defense call. It was fun to watch the other team come unglued with frustration.
Watching Pippen highlights always a pleasure.
This is an extraordinary excellent video that let me know how good and important Pippen is, thanks for uploading, really a nice video for a true basketball fan like me ^^
could lock up Lebron easily
lol nah Lebron would average 28-30 ppg against pippen just like he can do it against anybody pure faxx lmfaoooooooooo.
David James
Lebron = an unskilled loser
I love pippen, very underrated. But just to remind u that kobe did played him the playoffs and won, tho pippin was getting old
No one can.
emmanuel dom, somewhat.
Still one of the best basketball vids on the web. The music and editing are perfect.
Grew up watching these guys. Love this.
I hate it when people make it seem like Jordan carried those bulls teams by himself. They were 1-12 in playoffs games before they drafted Pippen. He had Pippen (best defender in the league), Rodman (best rebounder in NBA history), Phil Jackson (best head coach in NBA history), Kerr (best shooter in the league), Kukoc (best euro in the league)...when people look back at those teams, all they see is Jordan, and rightfully so. But those bulls teams were so stacked, even if you take Jordan off of them, they still had a contending team.
True.. still had Pippen, Grant, and solid role players like Paxson and elbows Cartwright and Wennigton....
***** MJs first retirement I believe helped Pippen develop alot.
Andrew Martinez
Lebron = an unskilled loser
with harper too
"Pippen would shut queen James down"
"Pip would leave lechoke ice cold"
what a compliment that folks are so insecure about Lebron, they say that the best perimeter/wing defender in nba history would shut him down. A shame Jordan NEEDED him for 6 rings, or Jordan would've been the 1 getting shut down.
you people say jordan needed pippen, i love pippen, but lebron DID leave the cavs and DID win titles but... he got WADE,BOSH,ALLEN people are always forgetting allen did he win the 2014 finals? NO! he lost to an aging SPURS... AGING!!!!
Jordan Pippen and Rodman did win championships 6 of em straight! against the greatest
#1 the spurs were a younger team than the heat overall the past 2 years (that's a proven fact)
#2 the bulls did NOT win 6 straight championships (also a proven fact)
calm down nostalgic nut hugger the cognitive dissonance is strong in you
Actually Pippen and Jordan used to play one on one, they interviews the whole Bulls team and at one point Pippen had to team Michael to slow down. Michael is the greatest.
michael vincent fernandez Rodman didn't win with Jordan the first 3 titles, but the other 3 titles, he won them after his Piston and Spur days were over.
michael vincent fernandez
pippen and rodman are better than bosh and wade so whats your point?
my all time favorite nba player pippen
The NBA needs more guys like this
Kawhi Leonard and Jimmy Butler are the closest ones I can think of right now that play like Scottie defensively.
Tylor Wade all NBA players today wants to shoot
Best damn defender in history. Jordan, Russell, Rodman, Bobby Jones, etc. were awesome. But when you combine on the ball defense, passing lanes, ability to defend all five positions, sacrifice and hustle taking charges and team defense, he's in a class by himself.
Nothing like it. Criminally underrated. When someone called me Pippen on the basketball court. True honor.
just came from watching The Last Dance and I wanna say I love how he went from shy to full-on fearless badass over the course of years
Awesome job putting this together. Pippen is one of the best ever!
pippen would most certainly shut Lebron down at any point in his career
Most likely without fully trying
Spoot Spit He's the best defender that's not a center in the history of the NBA. He literally did everything.
+comicbookfan21 in which series was this?
***** lebron averaged like 26 a game in last years finals though...
Spoot Spit i think scottie would man... LBJ is a great player and top 10 all time, but i feel like scottie is the guy to shut him down... he had the footspeed to stay with him, and scottie was big enough that he wouldn't get completely bullied by LBJ... but i think it comes down to scotties length and athleticism...
Pippen is just as great as Jordan.. Dammnn
Not far off, all aspects considered.
likeaRockNroll not only that, I would even go as far as saying that Scottie was all around better assists, steals, and rebounds included
thanks for the video, love it! Imagine what it must have been like for their contenders to play against a team with three of the best defenders to ever play the game: Pippen, Jordan and Rodman. Holy crap!
you should upload more often because scottie is my favorite player and ur channel's just awesome.
People get so caught up with MJ that they forget just how stellar Pippen was. Let's remember folks MJ couldn't get a ring until they added Scottie and they didn't establish pure dominance until a few more names were added to the roster.
I love how he was able to block shots and keep the ball in play. It is sad that this dude will never be appreciated. The Jordan legend continues to grow. It is at a mythical level now. People will have the nerve to say that Jordan was a much better defender. Much better? That's the part that bothers me. They don't even say slightly. They go as far as to say much better. Saying things like "it's not even close".
+Jason Stewart As a Bulls fan, Scottie was the best perimeter defender ever.
+Stanley Ongjoco agreed!
+Stanley Ongjoco Draymond Green is better than Scottie Pippen
southsider 35 Draymond is a beast. I think he should have gotten defensive player of the year last year but I can't put him ahead of Pippen yet. If he continues 5o play at that level 5h3n he will have an argument.
Jason Stewart Draymond has had a toughness for a premier defender we haven't seen since Pippen, Rodman, and John Stockton. Maybe it's because I'm an old guy who loved the Bulls more than anybody in the 90s, but I can't stand the Warriors team other than Green. Everyone else just seems one dimensional
Not only was he one of the best defensive players ever. I've never seen anyone dunk or finish a basketball at the hoop as effortlessly as Pippen
The world needs more good defensive compilation videos like this. Defense makes all the difference.
"There is no MJ without Scottie Pippen"....
Real talk 💯
You can’t say things like that. Jordan fans will reply angry and begin to spread their delusional cultist propaganda about how Jordan created Pippen and made him into a star.
@@justannbafan3646 The fact they made and helped each other on practice and be a smarter player, get out with that negativity dude.
He comes from no where and just blocking it. (AMAZING)
Very fortunate to have watched when these teams were playing. Also have seen them in person in the USA basketball team
Beautiful to watch
Kawhi Leonard on his way to becoming like Pippen!
R. C.P kawhi already is a better player then Scottie kawhi didn’t need mj and btw 2 time dpoy so yea cya buddy
@@chachan5326 yes he didn't need MJ. But he needs Duncan, Parker and Ginobli
@@Ratchetface Soft lol...I didn't here in NBA player Kawhi is soft They all said that Kawhi is so tough he can dunk in front of Face ,Embid,Cousins,Giannis,Capela, even if its two defender he can dunk...
Its really stupid when some people say Michael Jordan never had any help.
Scottie Pippen is one of the best and most versatile defenders of all time, a HOF player and a top-50 greatest of all time player as seen in this video.
Scottie you were a defensive clinic all by yourself every single game. Glad you played when I cared about the NBA, because you showed how the most important part of the game should be played. I took your lessons to every pickup game I played and thanks to you I was a better player.
So smooth. I love Pip! My favorite player.
Pippen or Jordan? Pippen shadow warrior of chb - my favorite player and best defender.
Mine too. Hard worker, possibly best all around game, post up, drive, hook shot, 3 point shot, defense, dunker, and humble!!!!! Most underrated player. Is Jordan better? Yes, but not by much. People forget Jordan needed Pippen too, they both needed each other.
Vlad Gusil Absolutely. MJ and Bulls were about .500 til' Scottie became a star. Once that happened .... no stopping em'.
I'll go with Pippen too :)
Before kahwi there was scottie.
Pippen doesn't need DPOY award. He needs The Most Skilled Defender Award. DPOY means nothing to him coz he is on another level.
Nobody should ever label them the Jordan era Bulls. It should always be known as the Jordan and Pippen era. Pippen deserves respect for the type of defensive accomplishments nobody has duplicated. Usually players with his athleticism don't add the intelligence, work ethic, and pride he had. This video should be shown by coaches as an inspirational tool in getting young players to play defense. Thank you Scottie Pippen for your contribution to the sport.
one of the dumbest things i have ever heard in my life, was when someone told me Scottie Pippen was overrated..
+Msgr. Øystein Nidal Gein Or Isiah Thomas...
S E2333 ...typically, the people who try and marginalize Pippen as a player, are people with a very low basketball IQ...talk to actual coaches, GM's, scouts and other NBA players, and they'll tell you how good Pippen was...but the casual fan, will always assume Jordan would have been just fine without Pippen...
+conni70 and that my friend is why I refuse to talk basketball with most ppl. They have no ideal what they are talking about or even looking at.
+conni70 Regardless of basketball iq, all people have to do is watch Scottie on youtube. He passes the eye test 100%. When you have two videos dedicated to your defensive prowess alone, you are a great player. There are casual fans and then there are haters.
