Glen Rice or Scottie Pippen: Who would you take all-time?

[Ojb81]

well, when he speaks, Scottie Pippen sounds like Cleveland from Family Guy. So I'm gonna have to go with Scottie.

 

[Robotech]

I'm gonna go out on a limb and pick Scottie Pippen.

This is a question?

Right?

Pippen was a 2 way player.

it was more to be Sarah!'s kid and his was the first name I remembered, but hey, added bonus--lol

Pippen was a 2 way player.

Rather a ...4 way player I would say! The most complete player before Giannis...

He has hold the Bulls on a contending level, even when Jordan interrupted playing for a couple of seasons.

Scottie was Nba all first team D 8 times. Only Jordan, Duncan, Kobe, Garnett, and the Glove have 9.

bball to me is you play both sides of the court. Not many players in the game did this better than Pipp.

Rice was a great shooter no doubt.

It's fun asking the young ones who are basketball fans-partiularly the ones wearing the Jordan brand-the question: "Why was Michael Jordan the greatest player ever?" So many different responses over the years. Rarely is the answer that he played great defense on top of all the other things, but that is the correct one, as it is what separated him. Same reason why choosing Glen Rice over Pippen is ridiculous.

The Bulls were blessed with the two of the best both way players in the NBA of not only their era, but guys who could be put in the all-time best talks in that regard. That's freaking nuts.

 

[Jiddy]

Only real b-ball fans know about this. While Mike was off missing curve balls. Bastards were good. Never going to see anything like it again I’m convinced

Yeah...That season is up there as one of my favorites of all time among all 3 of my favorite teams. That they were THAT good without Jordan just goes to show how dominant those 90s teams were. Very underrated team and that sh*t Knicks call left it unappreciated for just how good it was.

Couldn't get through the thread without bringing up your man-crush, could you? LOL.

 

[Rock Strongo]

pippen was the better defender, averaged more rebounds, assistant, and steals than rice. rice was an excellent pull up shooter.

pippen once averaged 21.4 and 8 boards and 5 assists to go with a league leading 3 steals a game.

as a shooter, especially outside/from the corner, give me rice. as a total ballplayer, give me pippen 100 times.

It's not me saying fool... it's every sportscaster in the entire world...

Every sportscaster in the world brings up Giannis in a Pippen vs Rice discussion?

Mike was never going to be the "Jordan" he is, without Scottie... Scottie's basketball IQ, floor spacing for Mike, defense, game reading, was unbelievable!
