Unbelievable and yet true! Scottie Pippen commented that Michael Jordan was a terrible player in his early years with the Chicago Bulls. The “Indian” made a new position against “Air” (via podcast), which has already caused strong reactions.
“LeBron is much older now and gets a lot of criticism. He was never a shotmaker. He was never the type to take the last shot. He was never great at it, I said this years ago and got…fired. LeBron will be the greatest player – statistically – to ever play basketball. There is no comparison. Will this make him the greatest player of all time? I leave this up for debate because I don’t believe there is a top player because basketball is a team game”, I mentioned initially.
“I’ve seen Michael Jordan play with the Bulls before I joined the team, you’ve all seen him. He was a terrible player. He was awful to play with. He was constantly playing one-on-one and taking bad shots. Suddenly, we became a team, started winning and everyone forgot who he wasPippen commented.
“LeBron James will be the greatest statistically [player] to ever play the game of basketball. [Michael Jordan] was a horrible player.”
