Scottie Pippen Says LeBron Will Be The Greatest Player Statistically: ‘Jordan Was A Horrible Player’

Scottie Pippen Says Michael Jordan Was A Horrible Player Before He Joined The Bulls

The Chicago Bulls team during the Michael Jordan era is widely considered the best stretch of winning basketball in NBA history.

While Jordan receives the majority of the praise for his contributions to that team, he wasn’t the only one responsible for their success, as his right-hand man Scottie Pippen played a considerable role in helping Chicago win each of their six titles.

Michael Jordan and Pippen are the two players most associated with the Bulls dynasty, but Pippen recently dropped a wild take on Jordan that has left the collective NBA world in shock.

“I’ve seen Michael Jordan play before I came to the Bulls; you guys seen him play. He was a horrible player. He was horrible to play with. He was all 1-on-1, shooting bad shots. All of a sudden, we become a team & we start winning & everyone forgot who he was.”

Jordan has been synonymous with the GOAT label in the NBA, so to hear his right-hand man in Pippen come out and completely trash him is a bit confusing.

According to Scottie Pippen, LeBron James will be the greatest statistical player to ever play the game of basketball.

Scottie’s claim has since gone viral on social media, sparking debate amongst fans. “He just mad because Jordan’s son is clapping his ex wife’s cheeks,” someone commented. “As we can clearly see, Michael Jordan had a scoring title and was a three time all-star before Scottie Pippen started playing for the Bulls,” another person wrote, adding receipt.
