Was Chicago Bulls star Scottie Pippen selfish?

Here’s a look at why Chicago Bulls star Michael Jordan is wrong for thinking his teammate Scottie Pippen was selfish.

In the second of 10 episodes of ESPN and Netflix’s “The Last Dance”, Jordan calls into question the M.O. of Pippen for delaying surgery until the early part of the 1997-1998 season. Around that time, Pippen was nursing a ruptured tendon in his ankle, which necessitated an operation to allow him to play again.

In the film, Jordan criticizes Pippen, saying his actions were selfish.

“Scottie was wrong in that scenario,” Jordan said.
