Clip of the Day: Scottie Pippen takes over

Something to kick off the weekend. Scottie Pippen is so famous as a sidekick, sometimes people forget he could be the lead dog. In this game from 1991, Pip gave the Hornets 43 points (16-17 FG), six assists and six steals, while MJ chipped in a quiet 29.

    I call him the Forgotten one.Because people on Mike nuts so much,they forget he never won shit without his doberman beside him.

  3. BRUCE says:

    Damned Hornets aren’t even trying!

  4. D.H. says:

    that was some Phx Suns quality defense by the Hornets. Scottie just walked down the lane over and over and over . . .

  5. weezy f says:

    that was an amazing highlight reel

    The Bulls made basketball look like such an easy game.

    The only thing uglier than Charlotte’s fast break defense was the spandex longer than the shorts look.

    Check out Stephon Curry’s dad getting the business from Mike. But IMO Scottie is the best small foward in the history of the game. Maybe Lebron will surpass him once everything is said and done but not yet.

  9. Dagomar says:

    BiG ShoT BoB: Lebron is a better player now than Pip in his prime, but for now Bird is still #1 for me.

    But yeah, Pip? I loved this guy as a kid; to me a top-five player during his era.

    I have to agree Scottie is the best SF in my opinion, Bird was the truth but being from the Chi, I have to go Scottie

    During the MJ’s time with the Bulls, I always said Scottie was the 2nd best player in the league

    Even when Mike retired, Pips stats increased and the team still won 50+ games. They were a bullshit Hue Hollins call away from the Finals

    Good vid. it really goes to show how versatile Pippen was back in the days.

    anyone noticed pip’s strange mini-fro here?

  12. Kermit The Washington says:

    Thanks for this, Dime…love it. Pip was so nasty. How dope was that, having Pip and Mike in their primes at the SAME TIME. ILL.

  13. Dial up says:

    Always sum lebron nut huggers commenting on a scottie pippen article. What losers. You’re right though, lebron with zero rings = scottie pippen with 6. dumbass.

    Lbj is no better than iverson right now. 1 finals and 1 huge sweep. at least a.i. won a game while he was there.

    Re: Mini Fro…

    Are you kidding? Where were you in the early 90’s?

    Its called a high-top-fade…
    say it with me… now you fill in the blanks:
    ____-top-____

    Now you know a piece of black culture…
    Hope youre not part of that generation who doesnt even know MLK.

    I wish i was old enough to remember the days when and MJ and Scottie dominated the nba,well i guess i gotta settle for kobe and luke walton

  16. AB_40 says:
