Now this is Defense - maybe he could play safety?

For all of you bored NFL/Rams fans that like Basketball, watch this video - make sure you get to the 3:30 mark. I watch it once a week so far this summer because golf and tennis and baseball get boring after awhile.


must watch


Lebron would have had his hands full with this guy, much less Jordan.

You couldn't get away with that in today's NBA. It's an offensive league and the refs would blow the whistle on anyone who touches LeBron James, period!

 

[SJ76]

Oh it's a ref happy league now and it's ridiculous. They control way too much. The league back then was great. Remember the brawls? Mourning dragging Van Gundy on the floor! Priceless!

but could you imagine a 6'7 guy with quickness like that swatting balls around?

Hopefully this kid from USC has some quickness and can lay FS.

I kinda disagree. He plays defense like Marc Gasol. He's just a tiny, tiny bit more atheltic

Pippen traveled at least 5 times in that video, btw.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea Clayton I agree. Traveling has become epidemic in the NBA like Ray Allen's three against the Spurs in game six this year. But you cannot watch an NBA game where somebody is walking and it is blatant.

Still it's a sick vid. The guy is way under-rated.

I tend to agree that he is underrated. He was properly rated in NBA Jam, though.

 

[SJ76]

I think NBA jam came out after Jordan retired and Pippen avg 22-23 points in those 2 years. He was a beast so yeah I think he was. Him and Kukoc.

10 time NBA all defense 1st team

Nah, it was out while MJ was still playing. EA(?) just had exclusive right to MJ and they made some terrible side scrolling game with him throwing basketballs so NBA Jam had to leave him and Barkley out. Pippen was the best player in the game. The good thing about that is that if MJ was in the game, the Bulls would've had the 2 best players in the league in a game that was 2 on 2 so that would've probably killed any competitiveness to the game at all.

 

[SJ76]

True. That's right. Wasn't there a code to get him tho? Remember hot carl? the little white dude?

lmao those were the days!

The video was awesome especially the theme music!

 

[SJ76]

Jermaine,

People don't realize how quick and talented Scottie was. And he was pretty strong for his size - checking Barkley and Ewing. I think Lebron is a good player with alot of talent, but I don't think we would have dominated Scottie Pippen at all. if anything, i think Scottie would have frustrated the hell out of Lebron and forced him to take jumpers.

Scottie was cat-like quick and played long. Sure the refs don't let people hand check anymore, but Pippen and Jordan and the fellas would have found a way to shut you down. Period.

You right SJ everybody is on LJ's jock; I admit he is good but and i like watching him but he isn't my fav. Jordan will always be my fav and like watching Tony Parker, and Derek Rose.
