Scottie Pippen Continues To Slam Michael Jordan

Over the past year or so, Scottie Pippen has made it clear that he is no longer on good terms with Michael Jordan.

And now, he has some more things to say about MJ.

When asked recently when he felt he was never considered to win the NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award, Pippen once again found the opportunity to bring in his rift with MJ.

“I think they were too busy watching Michael,” Pippen said of the voters.

Scottie Pippen especially took issue with how he was portrayed in Michael Jordan’s “The Last Dance” documentary.

“Each episode was the same: Michael on a pedestal, his teammates secondary, smaller, the message no different from when he referred to us back then as his ‘supporting cast.’ From one season to the next, we received little or no credit whenever we won but the bulk of the criticism when we lost. …

“Now here I was, in my midfifties, seventeen years since my final game, watching us being demeaned once again. Living through it the first time was insulting enough.

“Over the next few weeks, I spoke to a number of my former teammates who each felt as disrespected as I did. How dare Michael treat us that way after everything we did for him and his precious brand.”
