I don't think being called MJ's best teammate is an insult. And MJ always acknowledges that he never won a ring without Scottie.
That’s what I’m saying…I don’t get it. He is just mad about Future and his ex.
He means even though he was called his best teammate, he was never given enough credit and always got the blame and when you see the last dance you can see how Jordan actually is being condescending even when for example Pippen has a migraine, he says he could not argue to the point where Pippen has or not. He does not even believe that.. He also blames him when he was incredibly underpaid and did not want to go to surgery during summer and the list goes on...
@@agemre They don’t care bro. They worship MJ & he can do no wrong to them.
It has to be deeper than what is being revealed cuz I would be ecstatic if Michael Jordan called me his best teammate of anything lol
Man please if Scottie was Lebrons teammate .. y’all would be screaming how LBJ could never did it without him or how Scottie saved his legacy lol . He wouldn’t just be his “ greatest teammate “ lol
“There would be no Michael Jordan without Scottie Pippen.” That’s what MJ said! What more praise do you want than that, Scottie? 🤦🏻♂️
And he said that at his Hall of Fame speech too. Lol
@Hm 😂😂 always someone complaining
@Hm that's not the insinuation. We TREAT Michael as the superior and he is very clearly trying to state that much of the praise ppl give him should be directed at Pippen instead due to their duo being the formula for 6 rings. Using your thought process, there is literally no way Michael could give praise to Scottie that wouldn't be seen as condescending due to the level of respect each of them are given.
I don't think Jordan really believes that. I think Jordan believes that he would have won rings with any decent team. And I'm sure that's true. Without Pippen they would have plugged someone else in there and won. Pippen is overrated because of how great MJ was.
@Hm The reason people there is even a CONVERSATION is people like you like who add flames to the fire. Scottie was one of the greatest players in the history of the league. He was one of the greatest teammates, to the greatest dynasty, to the greatest player. Calm down.
In Michael Jordan’s hall of fame speech the first thing he said was “when you saw me winning 6 championships you saw scottie pippen with me”
Not really much of a compliment, it's just a fact. He did not say he could have never won 6 without Pippen, he just says Pippen was there. It's not like he was going out on a limb for Scottie or telling us something we did not already know. After he briefly acknowledged Pippen, he said every championship I won, not every championship WE won.
@@Michael_Page facts bro
@@Michael_Page who cares MJ carried that team anyways, what more do you want from him .
@@Michael_Page ”There is no Michael Jordan without Scottie Pippen”. I rest my case🤝
@@Michael_Page it's literally the biggest comment you can give a role player.
When MJ won the 1997 finals mvp, he said with millions watching at home and thousands in the United Center, that Scottie was his mvp. And for many years after that, including the documentary, he has always given him credit and praise. Scottie also had MJ induct him into the HOF. I just recently found a video on youtube of Scottie at a hornets game surprising MJ in his owners box and both hugging and happy to see each other. Scottie all these years has mostly had good things to say about MJ. So has Scottie been lying all these years and only pretended to like MJ, or is he lying now just to sell books? Yes, MJ's production company produced or at least was a part of the last dance, but MJ himself did not. If he doesn't like how he was portrayed in it, then blame the director or prod. company. I've never agreed with Stephen A more!
I'm wondering if he always felt this way. 🤔

Hey
O
1. MJ has always thanked his teammates, even in post game interviews when the press tried to steer the attention toward him only.
2. He has given Scottie plenty of credit on countless occasions, including MJ's hall of fame speech.
3. No, Mike didn't win without Scottie Pippen, but ALL of those players also rode MJ's coattails to every ring with that dynasty.
4. If we're really being honest about it, The Last Dance WAS about Michael Jordan, as it should have been.
People did not watch it to see Scottie's last season with the Bulls...or anyone else's for that matter. People tuned in because they got a rare, exclusive look MJ...and his supporting cast. It is what it is, and Pip is definitely in his feelings about something. Last time I checked, Michael never sat out the last seconds of a playoff game the way Pip did either. And Pip should remember that when he wants to talk about being a team player.
Finally some hindsight that is better than others.
Scottie ain't no supporting cast
@@byronherrera435 ummm yeah he was
MJ dedicated so many parts on the last dance about Scottie. MJ retired right before the training school cause his dad was murdered and Scottie calls him selfish? Chicago wanted to trade Scottie for T Mac in 98 and it was Jordan who stopped that from happening
@@byronherrera435 if he's not part of the supporting cast, then what is he? MJ is clearly the star of the show, and calling Scottie a co-star would imply that he and MJ are equals, which is NOT the case. MJ has always been gracious and respectful of the Pip, especially in the public eye.
So, what would YOU call Scottie? You didn't provide that info in your five word response to what you cherry picked from alllll the other insight that I provided.
I've always believed Pip to be the most underrated player in the HOF, but he is not on the same level as MJ, and he never was. That's both fact and opinion.
“In all the videos, you never just saw me, you saw Scottie Pippen, every championship I won”
The first thing MJ said in his Hall of Fame speech… the first person he acknowledged…
But didn't mention everybody else ! Scottie is still Right !
@@IKingEntertainment85 that’s because Scottie is the only person he won 6 championships with.
He also shared the 1997 finals mvp trophy with him… nobody does that except the greatest!
I never seen LeBron teammate or players around his era hate him so much. Paul pierce dropped his beef with bron once he retired
I don't agree with Sa very often but I completely agree with him on this one
He isn't right...Jordan wasn't winning until Scottie got there. Yes, Jordan helped Scottie more in terms of his career but Scottie did help Jordan. Jordan does act like the rest of those guys were support pieces and he pretty much did everything which isn't true. Even if he truly believes it was true...why say anything. The fans will and have come to that determination on their own. You (Jordan) don't need to say it and be disrespectful of the work your teammates put into that dynasty.
Very subjective analysis SAS....your opinion isn't facts SAS
@@Marsonis2ya jordan wasn’t winning before scottie because he was only 3 seasons into his career. Some players don’t even make the playoffs in their first 3 years. The first time the bulls win a playoff series jordan averaged 45ppg in the series while pippen only averaged 7ppg
@@TheGoch please point out SAs inaccuracies just one
Take this with a grain of salt. Pipp has been dealing with alot. He lost his son, Future pushed him into mid life crisis, and the last dance opened old wounds. When he comes around he'll realize it doesn't matter what people think about him or how he is portrayed, none of it matters...he has to get out of his head. My opinion, Pipp is one of the best to lace em up.

Thank you Stephen A! I've been telling everyone for years that the "Jordan rules" wasn't just for Mike. It was the whole Bulls team. Especially Pippen.
It’s a scouting report. Everybody has one.
It was only for MJ. Scottie came out soft as tissue!!!
@@blacprophet1153 that still doesn’t refute what he says
@@blacprophet1153 I disagree. Chuck Daly knew that he also had to slow their second best player on that team as well. Never recalled Pippen being soft at all. I know he did have a migraine against them in a close out game
@@kenduwilliamson5436 I'm from Chicago and watched Pippen this entire career. He was soft. The X man and Rodman used to punk him!!?
This is the irony. Scottie was the better teammate. The good cop. MJ was known to be the scary a-hole teammate. But off the court, Scottie is the one who has shown to be more selfish than MJ.
JORBUM

"You can't mention the name Michael Jordan without Scottie Pippen".
Scottie is hella sensitive, MJ is a straight talker but he's always been consistent in his recognition of Scottie.
Feels refreshing to see SAS come out with a calm and rational take again.
Lol yeah I was ready to disagree with him but he came prepared
Unheard of for me... first time I have witnessed it.
This is the Stephen I like. Factual and straight, no BS and no cutting corners.

The problem is one guy got all the credit for a whole team's contribution
@@antonioojeda9891 facts
Scottie wouldn't win those rings without MJ either, so what's Scottie's point? Scottie couldn't win a ring next to Hakeem and Barkley. Or win with a stacked 2000 Blazers being up 15 on the Lakers.
Facts 💯👌🏽
Facts Bro
Amen to this
Jordan was a perennial loser without Pippen
His point is just what you said. If the same goes for Mike AND Scottie then Jordan should pipe down on the disrespect. If Jordan is justified so is scottie. If scottie is wrong, Jordan is wrong
When Michael Jordan walks into a room, everybody stops and looks at him. That's who he is. He is still larger than life and he didn't need a documentary to still prove that.
He wasn't a winner until Pippen came... end of discussion
@@streetjones7713 you 🤡 do you know how much Michael Jordan accomplished long before pipen came along and even when Scotty was with MJ and the Bulls they still did not win a championship because they could not get past the Detroit Pistons at first, plus pipen didn't when a championship the whole time Jordan was gone for 2 year now STFU
@@ZM-830MJ won accolades but not championships (which matter the most) without Scottie Pippen is what he meant
I think what he and many people missed is that the majority of people were focused on Michael during his era of play. People who didn't watch basketball began watching because of Michael. Back then, men who didn't wear athletic clothing began wearing Nike gear or tennis shoes because of Michael. The brutality Michael experienced on the court and how his little self bounced up off of the ground brought out a special level of intriguing.
I got my mom into watching the Bulls before leaving the state. Who was her player? Michael! She got our prissy, feminine, non sports watching neighbor hooked on Michael too. Not Scottie! After moving to another state they would remind each other and call me when Michael was coming on. Not Scottie! My mom and I believe Pippen and the rest of the team played at their level because Michael demanded it. To me, that speaks volumes! Michael was a "rockstar" playing basketball! He's the person who people all over the world wanted to know. It wasn't Pippen nor the others at Michael's level.
Yes, we liked the others but we wanted Michael's life. We weren't gloating about Scottie, Kukoc, Kerr, Harper, or Rodman and we loved them. But, at least how I felt back then and even now, our hearts were for Michael. The irony in what Pippen says is........ If Michael wasn't who deserved the stage and Scottie or any of the others was the best player, why haven't they come out with their own documentary? Sales would show who people were interested in. I'm glad he's mad and living a miserable life of envy. Ridiculous! Wouldn't have thought he was such a wussy.
MJ wouldn't have three pest no time if it wasn't for Scottie, Grant and Rodman be for real because those three toiled with the rebounding leaving MJ to be fresh in the fourth qtr to play effective offense
MJ would be ringless without Pippen. Lebron > MJ
All Lebrons rings came from stacked teams as well…. not to mention Lebron even LOST while being on stacked teams….ur point is completely invalid.

Scottie has always been insecure about himself and has caused him to do some stupid things. Just remember when he got Benched because of not getting called for the last shot in the game and Kukoc did instead. Also Jordan has on MANY occasions said the bulls never would have been what they were with out Scottie.
Insecure.. ? Really?
@@caliboom15 insecure. Sensitive. Petty. Envious. Scorned. All of the above. Scottie is upset because he was never that guy

Thanks Stephen. Always hits the nail right on the head.
Stephen, you were spot on!! The Air Jordan shoes were even more popular than the NBA in the late 80s worldwide, cos in Nigeria we knew what it was to own one of those......the slam dunk competitions MJ did before the championships were significant.
Barkley never got a ring but he's one of the greatest. Jordan would have still been the greatest even if he never won a ring.

@@kingcanaan2909 a whole 30 years ago? In recent history most things Jordan said about his team has been courteous excluding him retaliating and defending himself from scottie in the last dance.
I park valet at The Grove, MJ's country club in Florida. He plays at least one round, usually two, almost every single day. Didn't speak with him aside from hello and thank you, but he showed up today for the first time all week, and looked like he hasn't slept in days. He was really upset when Kobe died, but this one is different. He'll never say anything publicly, that's just not how he rolls, but he's heartbroken with what Scottie is doing.
Are you serious?
This is the Stephen A we all know and love... INSIDER knowledge
I see why Scottie and larsa are made for each other now
They both clout demons
And Michael Jordan is extremely insecure. All of these points are correct, and this is coming from someone who thinks he’s the goat but the last dance really didn’t help anything but himself

@@MrGenexxx Man u always hating on LeBron now u think he the goat 🤣... chasing comment clout 💀
“Michael Jordan would never be Michael Jordan without those teammates” of course, basketball is a team sport, your achievement is based on others for sure. Lebron wouldn’t be Lebron without those teammates, Curry wouldn’t be Curry without those teammates, to me these are all nonsenses. As a secondary player, you just have to ask yourself why you’re not becoming an alpha player and not blaming your alpha player. Any player needs each other, the question is, if you take out Michael Jordan or if you take out Grant or Toni, which option is affecting the game and team most. Your alpha player is always impacting the most.
In“The Last Dance,” Micheal Jordan said, “Scottie Pippin, is the best teammate I ever had. Without Scottie there would be no Michael Jordan….”
That paired with the films highlighting of how well the bulls did without jordan. Really made Jordan look small and showed his mocking of teammates wasn't necessary for the team to succeed. Scottie carried that team, for me I left the documentary having an equal if not greater admiration for Scottie then anyone else.
"he wouldn't spit on IT if he was on fire"
Idk if there's a phrase that shits on a person more than that jfc Scottie.
I don’t like that
It's just sad because they were great together. They were my childhood heroes
I had Air Jordans on my feet years before Scottie Pippen ever even stepped into the Madhouse on Madison!!
Scottie is hurting y'all clearly. Hope he gets the help he needs.
There's something very personal about Scottie's comments. Feels more than basketball. Very uncalled for though. I believe there are better means to address his issues with MJ.
MJ is worth way more money. Who do you think mainstream media is going to side with? All mainstream media is owned by the same 6 people if you trace it back far enough. Those 6 people all belong to the same "brotherhood" that also makes an enormous amount of money off MJ's brand. Everything you're hearing here is money-based. 100%.
I have nothing against MJ and he's obviously a great basketball player, but Pippen obviously has the right to speak his mind. And Pippen is perhaps one of the most under-rated players in NBA history. Also, note Pippen has *never* said anything negative about MJ's abilities on the court. Pippen has always praised MJ for that a lot. And he isn't criticizing MJ's basketball skills here at all here but they're reacting like he did which is a strawman fallacy.
Pippen is just defending his own playing abilities as he should.
"The Jordan Rules" doesn't get enough credit. Young fans thinks everybody was defending like Craig Ehlo. Imagine all 5 guys trying to stop one 6'6 player? Even Wilt or Shaq didn't have things like that.
I mean, they tried to build walls of 4/5 guys to stop Giannis lol
Yeah I watched some of those old games that “defense” was overrated af lol
@@samesame3667 that defense was overrated so Vince Carter, Kobe, and Ray Allen were lying and should believe you instead.
What a baby, can’t he be happy with everything he’s accomplished. Six titles millions of dollars. A great player.
Not gonna lie it’s super fucked up of Scottie to be in that man face for all those years and never offer condolences for his pops
You give condolences to someone you hate and has been shitty to you?
People also forget that MJ was also underpaid by the Bulls most of his career. MJ won MVP and DPOY on 1987-1988 and his salary that season was only USD 845,000. He was already being considered the GOAT in 1993 and his salary that year is only USD 4 million dollars. He only got to eight figures after 12 years! All star players today already get 9 figure contracts after playing for just few years.
You have to accept this man opinion in this he is entitled to his side of what happened he was there through it all.
Kobe Bryant: "I feel like, yo, what you get from me is from him. I don't get five championships here without him because he guided me so much and gave so much great advice."
It is no coincidence that Jeffrey Jordan is now having fun with Larsa Pippen. The disrespect for his grandfather and father is definitely the biggest motivating factor… This is REVENGE 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Steve forgot the most importante thing, sure, jordan was all that but there is one thing he was not until pippen arrived and ths is a CHAMPION, Phill Jackson showed what he thought about Scottie whe he refused to give him the last shot to win a game. I feel you scottie, you will always bee one of my favorite players!
Its crazy to think that he has been holding onto this anger for so long. That might be why his personal relationships seem to have fallen apart from throughout the years. Self sabotage at its finest. I pray he can find some kind of happiness before its too late
All these years later and he’s still salty 😂
Scottie was hurt by Jordans backstabbing him. Scottie Pippen made that team and was the true leader of the Chicago Bulls,fact.
LMAO how did Jordan stab Pippen in the back? Jordan made the Bulls, hence turning around a provety franchise before Pippen was even drafted & the 6-FMVPs, Jordan was the leader of the Bulls which is why Phil called Jordan the ultimate puppeteer.
Thats why Pippen won so many championships when he played without Jordan. He was the true GOAT. PULEEEESE!!!
Scotty was the second best player in the league period
Pippen was great just like the rest of the OG Bulls but let's be real there was no 6 rings in Chicago without MJ. Pippen needs to keep MJ out his mouth already move on bro

I don't blame Scottie!! When it comes to Michael Jordan, I can't listen to Steven A Smith. Michael cannot do no wrong in Steven A Smiths eyes
Bruh, Scottie's whole career is due to MJ. If Scottie can't accept his role and 6 rings he got with MJ, then he's a clown.
MJ could punch a guy and these guys would be saying that the guy should be honored to be punched.
Scottie is delusional. Only lebron fanboys are cool with this nonsense tour Scottie has been on. Phil is racist for not letting him shoot the last shot?? Gtfoh
Not on air they would say it but the thought would be flying around their heads
@@enochabraham688 Michael is the greatest but Jordan lost his first 7 years in the league to Boston and Detroit. Wasn't till Pippen came along.
Also, the reason i think Pippen should be mad is because the last dance was supposed to be about the 1998 Chicago Bulls it was about Jordan. I was waiting for the episode that when Jordan retired and Pippen took the bulls, without Jordan, to the semifinals.
This is why Scottie Pippen should be talking behind closed doors about this with MJ and not in a book.
Scottie Trippin once again ladies and gentlemen. It’s sad because there’s so much we can learn from Scottie through being surrounded by the greatest player and coach of the 90s
It’s sad how Pippen trying to blame somebody else for his personal problem. Anybody who knows the game knows this was bigger than basketball. Misery loves company even if it waits 30 years to publicly admit to it
Scottie looks jealous asf. Michael Jordan was already a beast before all of them guys even got drafted.
Beast, but he wasn't winning.
Exactly Jordan couldn’t even make it out the first round of the playoffs before Scottie
Jordan had the most stacked teams
great points Windy, loved your commentary in this clip. Stephen didn't even get to say a word.

Man, we need a *Royal Rumble* with MJ, Magic, Bird, Isaiah, Scottie, Barkley, Malone, Rodman, and Stockton.
I'm dying at how much beef these guys have. lmfao!!!!
Pippen was right on this in my opinion it’s a team sport you win and lose together without his teammates he wouldn’t have won those championships.
Everybody knew its a team sport.Even Jordan acknowledges his teammates
So Pip wouldn't have thought that without Jordan being his teammate he would still be struggling to develop his game? After Last dance people would still have empathy for you because how it portrated you. But come on Scottie! You are absolutly discrediting your own legacy while you are make these silly comments to get attention. STOP IT.
It's the gucci flip flops that made Scottie trip🤣🤣
You would think when in you're in 50s and 60s, one would be matured and less concerned about ego
Thr funniest thing from Scottie's statement is that he and MJ's "supporting cast" had the chance to win without him and couldn't get it done, then he asked for MJ to return on national television. MJ in fact returned and once they had a full season with him they established the wins record and won more championships. What was the deciding factor in them winning more titles? Michael Jordan. He carried the most burden and elevated others to play to his demands and standard, regardless of their opinion on him as a teammate, his attitude and mindset is what pushed other to give their best within the Bulls' system.
Scottie never got over the Bulls giving him that BS contract, I think he will always feel slighted and unappreciated
He signed it though lol
Carmen Electra's naked story was very amusing at the beginning of Episode 4. That's also the episode of MJ calling Isiah an a-hole. I like that. Isiah did too. Deep down, Isiah knows MJ is the GOAT.
shout out Pippens Marketing team! Pure genius!
I'm so glad they brought Brian Windhorst on the show.
MJ helping Scottie again with this one. The pettiness of this is just making MJ smirk or smile. MJ loves Scottie as a friend, and he allows Scottie to do this because he knows the media and the society. MJ is already living in another universe, private and away from all this noise. MJ is a businessman, he has earned more than enough through the Last Dance documentary. Pippen is cashing in as well, even at the expense of MJ. Relevance is the name of the game in this millenial attitude infested generation.
Late-90s MJ was when he was the most handsome and most refined player. He was stronger, smarter, wiser, and even more skilled. But early-90s is GOAT MJ to me. He can hit threes at over 40% in the Finals.
Sas always just got off the phone with someone 🤣🤣
Scottie had a season without MJ. What did he do?. If he was that great of a player he should've showed it then. Crying 😂
How is it Jordan’s fault that Scottie wasn’t Michael Jordan? It’s really pitiful how so many of his teammates weren’t complaining when they were in the parades.
We all know Jordan is the GOAT, the problem is that most of the media now grew up idolizing him and cant help but be bias. Scottie definitely has a deeper relationship with Jordan than we will ever know. Many more undisclosed things may have transpired between the two. And Pippen is simply telling us HIS truth.
Exactly
If M J did not play for the Bulls, none of these guys would be call Champions
If MJ didn't play for the Bulls you'd be saying Scottie who??
How did he go over the line?
He didn’t. Mj is a god to people, so ANY criticism will ANGER mj fans
Michael Jordan is God to a lot of these people apparently
Pippen should thank Micheal Jordan for him helping Pippen make the top NBA top 75.
Stephen A., If you adore MJ and love Scottie as you said, why not try to bring this two amazing men together in peace?
I love MJ, and I also love Scottie.
So now what!
Can you all stop siding and be a good friends to both of them who clearly needs your mediation
If anyone can speak on micheal Jordan its pip and nobody else.. he knows stuff we don’t know think about it
This is a really bad take
Scottie just felt slighted on "The Last Dance" because he didn't receive more acknowledgement of his own talents. Up until then, he had only been complimentary of Jordan. His criticism should be directed to the producer, not Jordan.
i think pippen wants more of a stockton malone, kareem magic, shaq kobe type of thing.
How many times MJ thanked this guy publicly?!? It’s crazy! It’s like no matter what .. mofos just want there to be a problem
You guys can't tell Scottie how to feel! He felt like the last dance was condescending to his legacy. And there are probably other things unspoken that they went through. Scottie has historically called Mike the best player, he just feels different about him as a teammate and a friend.
and yet MJ is the sole reason Pipp has that kind of legacy
@@roddiemira and it goes both ways.. Haha..They both needed each other
IDC what they say about each other, those two men, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen were, are and will always be childhood heroes for our generation and legends, well to me anyways. I can't think of the greatness of one without thinking of the greatness of the other.
Scottie never won a championship without Jordan and the other way around, but from what I saw Jordan gave Scottie the credit
The Last Dance is just a Jordan Propaganda movie even though I think he is the Undisputed GOAT of basketball. Not gonna lie, I still enjoyed it
Crazy the doc was recording during the season. He’s the goat for that just alone
Thank you SAS for speaking the Truth and Pip sound like a Simple
Very well said....
I love when Stephen A gets worked up about Jordan. The man speaks facts.
The man's year has been rough. Got nobody in his corner.
Can I just say that this is all so darn sad man… Scottie seems to be in his feelings for nothing. He thinks that we’re bashing him or disrespecting him because he wasn’t better than Jordan. Dude, no professional basketball player is or was better than Jordan. Also just the fact that he’s trying (possibly unknowingly) to tarnish the greatness of that Bulls dynasty is just terrible imo. Im praying for that brother, and hope that he finds true peace.
Yes it was never Michaels fault bro was dropping 30 points per game and absolutely carried the bulls when Scottie was being selfish with his injury in 97-98 season
