People, don’t forget that Scottie’s son died like 6 months before he started ranting about Jordan. When you lose a child, your whole world shifts, you’re bitter inside and take it out on everybody without even knowing it. That’s a deep wound that never really heals. If Michael ever sees Scottie, he should just go up to him, give him a hug and not take anything Scottie says personal because Scottie’s hurting right now.

I feel like Scotty just wants him and the rest of the team to get the same level of respect and appreciation that Jordan is getting

[benji_san]

we can't really discredit Scottie, he's been thru so much on and off court but persevered, I think MJ understands this that's why he plays it off and let's Scottie express himself without having hard feelings for him.

It makes me sad the one of the greatest duo in sports that brought countless people so much joy are unable to enjoy themselves after it's all said and done. I really hope Scottie recovers from this I know he's been through a lot throughout his entire life.

“He helped me so much in the way I approached the game, in the way I played the game. Whenever they speak Michael Jordan, they should speak Scottie Pippen, ” Jordan stated. “I didn’t win without Pippen. And that’s why I consider him my best teammate of all time.” - Michael Jordan

No matter how much Scottie hates MJ now, I believe there is always a place for Scottie in MJ's heart. Sweat, tears and championships don't forget.

As someone who watched Micheal Jordan and Scottie Pippen live this just breaks my heart. To think that two men who accomplished so much together are now enemies makes me sad. I will also add that Scottie Pippens' wife dating MJ's son is just wrong Period.

It really sucks to be under someone's shadow for a long time.

'Scottie pippen" were basically the first words out of Jordan's mouth at this HOF speech. That will speak for itself long after this storyline here

[michaelmanning]

scottie had a REALLY hard year, he lost his family basically, and amidst all that the last dance came out, he said ALOT of things he didn't really mean, since than he's softened his stance a bit, poor guy.

[aaronsalmon]

Not really a beef if it's one sided. I do feel for Scottie losing his son, wife etc. Bloody horrible!

[Gabriel-wznx]

In this beef im with Pippen all the way. MJ wasnt happy at all about LeBron getting closer and closer to the scoring record and decided to release that biased documentary that was just a set up to make it look like Jordan did everything by himself in the Bulls dynasty.

[jmiogo]

Scottie is grieving and in pain. He needs friends. Real ones. Not these dirty publishers and liquor salesman in his ear. Heartbreaking.

What Scottie and the rest of those guys don’t understand is that they have the fans respect, but the media will NEVER give them the credit they deserve. It’s just the way it is.

[Trailrunner]

Its actually true that Scottie, even Horace Grant, and later on Scottie and Dennis was instrumental in Michael winning so much. In the three last championships they had three of the worlds best defenders, the worlds best scorer, the worlds best rebounder and the worlds most versatile player (Pippen). Michael would never say he would have won without Pippen. Pippen, Horace Grant or Rodman never got the respect they deserve. Its absolutely 100% true. Michael has also said it himself that Pippen and Rodman didnt get the respect they deserve. I actually think Jordan would forgive Pippen anything.

8:50 | “Wherever Scottie looked, a Jordan was sticking it to a Pippen” — savage 💀

[DJFilthy]

“A Jordan was sticking it to a pippen” was so out of pocket 😂😂

[thesacredflame]

Just sad to see the dynamic duo’s relationship fall apart. Hope they can reconcile, but Jordan always remembers a slight and Pippen is dealing with a lot of emotional issues rn. I hope they can resolve this beef.

[psycho_bear]

omg, first video about the Pippen vs. Jordan beef without calling Pippen ungrateful. Man, you did something legendary.

[psvsoap]

Thanks to the document, millions of young people who could not watch those years saw how great teammates Michael had. steve, scottie, dennis, tony etc.
