When you think of the 90s Bulls you think of Michael Jordan and winning and, oh yeah, definitely Scottie Pippen too. It's not easy being the second best guy on the best team. (Though I'm sure it's better than being the second best guy on a terrible team.) And everything is made harder when your injuries aren't taken seriously, your contract negotiations are put off, and your GM likes Toni Kukoc more than you. What could Scottie Pippen do but... demand trades and bench himself during the playoffs. Move over championship trophies, you're blocking our view of Beef.

"Whenever they speak Michael Jordan, they should speak Scottie Pippen." - Michael Jordan 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 Pip was a definition of all around player. An absolute monster on defense. Always seemed to make a perfect pass or steal. Probably the most underrated NBA player in history simply because he played next to the greatest ever. His contributions to the team might not show up on stat sheets the way Jordan’s did, but only Jordan could overshadow his contributions. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/piotrekzproductions?sub_confirmation=1 📸 Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/piotrekz_designs ☑️ Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/piotrekzprod 🐦 Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/piotrekzprod 📩 Contact: piotrekzprod@gmail.com 0:00 Intro 0:32 Michael Jordan 1:16 Kobe Bryant 1:49 John Salley 2:10 Reggie Miller 2:26 Toni Kukoc 2:50 Defense on Magic Johnson 3:16 Gilbert Arenas 3:43 Grant Hill 3:56 GOAT 4:42 Gary Payton 5:23 Quentin Richardson 5:29 John Salley 5:59 Magic Johnson 6:10 John Paxson 7:09 Dennis Rodman 8:13 Charles Oakley 8:28 Larry Johnson 8:36 Charles Barkley 9:09 Draymond Green 9:38 Charles Barkley 10:21 Shaquille O'Neal 11:11 Isiah Thomas All audio and video clips are the sole property of their respective owners. #ScottiePippen #MichaelJordan #TheLastDance
CHICAGO -- THe best 2-way players of their generation colide in this matchup between the 2019 Raptors and the 1996 Bulls. The Raptors got off to a fast start, starting 7-0 prompting an early timeout from the Bulls. The Bulls continued to striggle on offense and Mark Gasol came off the bench provided extra lift for Toronto, giving them as much as a 12-pt lead in the period. He would score 12 pts off the bench, including 2 3-pointers and the Raptors are off to a good start with a 27-19 advantage after one. The 2nd quarter was all about Scottie Pippen. He put on a postup masterclass. Initially finding himslef guarded by the smaller Lowry, he got himself in rhythm and once he was on, no matter if it was Kawhi or Siakam in front of him, he was scoring on a multitude of moves. He scored 12 in thbe period and had the Bulls retake the lead. The Raptors regained some ground behind some strong play from Van Vleet and the Raptors hold on to a 2-pt lead going into the half 44-42. The 3rd quarter was hard fought as both sides stayed solid on both ends. Pippen had another strong quarter here with Jordan seemingly having an off game. Toni Kukoc however provided the extra lift off the bench, scoring 7 pts and dishing out 5 assists in the period, as the Bulls led by as much as 5. Toronto kept their toughness however, with Leonard staying aggressive, scoring 10 and VanVLeet continuing his strong play off the bench. Bulls keep a narrow 2 pt lead heading into the 4th. In the fourth quarter, Michael Jordan broke out of his slump (was 8/17 at that point), came out aggressive and had a huge quarter. He would go on to score 22 pts in the this final quarter, scoring on a variety of moves... dunks, spin moves, and his fadeaway was clicking. The Raptors attack was more balanced, with Siakam leading the way with 10, but also some aggressive play from Lowry and Leonard. THey kept it close despite Jordan's huge quarter. Bulls led by just 1 point with 2 mins to go Jordan would answer the call with a jumper on the other end to put the lead back up by 3. This was followed by back-to-back blocks by Luc Longley on Kawhi Leonard on the next play. Leonard would still bring it down to 1 with a driving dunk with 56 secs to go. Bulls would rely on their defense to keep the lead. Kukoc would make a huge defensive play on an inbound pass in the last few seconds to protect a 1 pt lead and Jordan played excellent defense on Kawhi on their last play. Bulls would make their FT's down the stretch to seal the win. Jordan finished with 38 pts 5 rebs 3 assts 5 stls. Pippen added 34. Kukoc added 12 pts 6 rebs 9 assts. Kerr with 14, 3/5 from 3. Kawhi led 5 Raptors who scored double figures. He finished with 24 pts 4 rebs 4 assts 5 stls. Lowry and Siakam had 18 a piece. 0:00 First quarter 16:26 Second quarter 31:20 Halftime show 32:12 Third quarter 50:12 Fourth quarter
For a while, it looked like the Atlanta Hawks had gotten the better of the Dikembe Mutombo deal. But the Philadelphia 76ers still have Allen Iverson. Iverson scored 16 of his 47 points in the pivotal third quarter as the 76ers withstood early and late challenges by the Hawks and held on for a 108-103 victory, their fourth straight triumph. It was Atlanta's 10th straight loss, its longest losing streak since a 10-game slide from October 30-November 15, 1980. Iverson made 16-of-30 shots, including eight in a row from the second to the third quarters, as he repeatedly beat Jason Terry and Brevin Knight, among the NBA's quicker guards. He eclipsed 40 points for the 16th time this season, reaching the plateau early in the fourth quarter. "You can't let him get going early, then he thinks he can make everything," Terry said. "He got 17 in the first, 16 in the third. It's just hard to guard him." "He had it going," Sixers coach Larry Brown said. "He really made shots tonight. The biggest thing is when teams double-team him and he gives it up. I would like for him, a lot of times, in certain situations to try and get it back. I think he did it a few times tonight." On February 22, the Sixers acquired the 7-2 Mutombo and forward Roshown McLeod from the Hawks for forwards Theo Ratliff and Toni Kukoc, center Nazr Mohammed and guard Pepe Sanchez. Ratliff is sidelined with a broken wrist but the other three saw action and played well in stretches. "`Naz' played well, Pepe got a chance to get in the game, Toni played well," Iverson said. "It did feel kind of funny, playing against them, when you've been playing with them all year. When someone gets traded, it's always a funny feeling when you play against guys who you went to war with. Look left and right in the foxhole, and they were right there fighting with you. It's tough. The flip side is we're still friends, and we still have a relationship outside of basketball." "Nazr played great," Brown said. "I was thrilled for him." No one played better than Iverson. He scored 12 points in a five-minute span as the Sixers turned a six-point lead into an 83-66 advantage in the closing seconds of the third quarter. And when the Hawks rallied within two points in the game's final minute, Iverson drilled a fadeaway corner jumper to give the Sixers a 103-99 lead. His two free throws with 10.8 seconds to go closed the scoring and sealed the win. Mutombo had 13 points, 13 rebounds and nine blocks and Eric Snow had 12 points, 13 assists and a clutch jumper in the last minute for the Sixers (46-16), who have beaten the Hawks seven straight times and moved 30 games above .500. "Guys want to come out and beat us," Iverson said. "When I was on a losing team, every time we had the chance to play a team going to the playoffs, we tried to beat those guys. Sometimes we beat them, sometimes we didn't but we fought the whole game. That shows you're a professional." Terry had 25 points and 10 assists for the Hawks. Mohammed had a career-high 18 points and 10 rebounds, Kukoc scored 12 points and Sanchez filled in for two minutes for Knight at the point. "I got a bit of a surprise against Nazr Mohammed," Mutombo said. "I never played much against him. I though he was going to come in and set it up pick-and-roll and try to get an offensive rebound. Seeing him hit shot after shot, I went to the bench and asked `What's going on with this kid?' I had to adjust myself defensively. I didn't know he was able to it those shots." "Don't forget I had a career night against Los Angeles when I was here (Philadelphia)," Mohammed said. "I love the big games. I love to go against the best teams and play against the best players." The Sixers trailed late in the first half before Iverson made a jumper and layup for a 55-52 lead. He headed to the locker room with 23 points. The Hawks still were within 65-59 with just under seven minutes left in the third quarter when Iverson really heated up. He had a 3-pointer and layup around Terry's 3-pointer, then hit another 3-pointer after a basket by Mohammed, giving the Sixers a 73-64 lead. The teams traded baskets before Iverson had two more baskets in an 8-0 spurt. Tyrone Hill's layup made it 83-66 with 35 seconds to go. "I was chasing Iverson all over, and he was still knocking shots down," Terry said. "You kind of get your head down, but in the fourth quarter, I stuck in there and came back and ran the team." Snow missed jumpers on consecutive trips and the Hawks finally capitalized as Terry's two free throws cut the deficit to 101-99 with 1:11 to play. Iverson answered with his only basket of the period. After a tip-in by Mohammed, Snow finally made a jumper for a 105-101 edge with 31 seconds remaining. "Allen got double- and triple-teamed and gave the ball up to Eric," Brown said. "He missed a few times but then he hit some big shots."
CHICAGO -- The Lob CIty Clippers of CHris Paul, Prime Blake Griffin visit MJ at the UNited Center and look to make a big splash with an upset. The Bulls were playing solid physical defense versus the Clippers in the first quarter, but this led to early foul trouble for MJ and early penalty leading to FT's for the Clippers. In the second quarter, with Rodman sitting down, the Bulls frontcourt appeared thin, and DeAndre Jordan took advantage. He scored on putbacks, mismatches and had 8 in the period. Collison also gave an extra lift, and the CLippers led by as much as 11, 39-28. Rodman, Pippen and MJ regrouped on the floor, with Dennis givinge the extra hustle and muscle inside and go on a 6-0 run before they started turning the ball over again. Clipper hang on to a 7-pt lead at the break. THe third quarter was all about Scottie Pippen. He was aggressive on both ends of the court. He would lead Chicago back in this game, scoring 22 pts with a steal and a block, tying the game with 2Ft's in the last few seconds. A last second 3-pointter from Granger kept the Clippers up by 3 but momentum was starting to go to Chicago's direction. Michael Jordan would carry this momentum in the 4th quarter, scoring 17 pts handing out passes to open teammates, and pushed Bulls ahead by as much as 7 with over 5 mins to go. They looked on the way to winning this thing, but they would start missing open shots and the Clippers claw their way back. It was a tied game with less than 2 mins left. Clippers continued to make Jordan pass the ball and Kukoc and his other teammates would fail to connect on open shots. On the other hand, Chris Paul was making big plays down the stretch on both ends He only had 2 pts to this point but hit 8 big ones down the stretch and found open teammates. Clippers pull of the upset 104-96 Jordan and Pippen combined for 68 pts but no one else inthe team reached double digits. Kukoc was just 3/12 and missed some key open jumpers down the stretch. Blake Griffin led the CLippers with 27 pts. JJ Redick added 20. DeAndre Jordan was actualy awarded PLayer of the Game honors 16 pts 17 rebs 6 blks. But Chris Paul was biggest down the stretch. He had 10 pts, but 16 assists and 5 steals.
