YouTube Gold: Scottie Pippen’s Finest

If you watched the documentary about Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls called The Last Dance that came out during the pandemic, you’ll know that despite the immense he had in Chicago, Scottie Pippen was never very happy with the Bulls.

He signed a long-term deal as a young player in order to be sure he could provide for his family only to find out that he was far better than he ever dreamed he would be and was therefore grossly underpaid (despite his stunning talent, the Bulls refused to renegotiate).

He was also unhappy with the documentary, feeling that Jordan was glorified and Pippen, along with the rest of the dynasty Bulls, was slighted, a comet circling Jordan’s sun that occasionally shown bright but never brighter than the megastar that Jordan had become.
