It’s worth noting that Larsa Pippen was previously married to Scottie Pippen, who famously played alongside Michael Jordan for the Chicago Bulls. While both of them had a strong bond during their basketball careers in the 1980s and 1990s, a certain level of rivalry developed between them. In Scottie Pippen’s memoir, Unguarded, published in November 2021, he expressed his disappointment with Michael for downplaying their shared NBA history in his documentary, The Last Dance.
Scottie Pippen Reignites Feud With Rival Michael Jordan
Scottie Pippen, alongside his esteemed teammate Michael Jordan and under the wise guidance of head coach Phil Jackson, achieved unparalleled success during their illustrious tenure with the iconic Chicago Bulls. However, it is no secret that Pippen’s relationship with Jordan has been far from idyllic. In a recent interview, Pippen shed light on the formidable challenges he faced within the Bulls organization during the twilight of his career. Alongside these revelations, Pippen also addressed the intriguing possibility of reuniting with former comrades associated with the storied team.
Engaging in a heartfelt conversation with his former teammate Stacie King, Pippen fearlessly delved into various aspects of his unparalleled experience with the Chicago Bulls. He openly discussed the intricate dynamics he shared with both the enigmatic Michael Jordan and the revered strategist Phil Jackson, while also providing insights into his role in the captivating docuseries, The Last Dance. When the topic of reuniting with former team members arose, Pippen expressed his resolute disinterest, firmly stating,
“No. Stacey, you’ve been around Michael. You’ve been around Phil. I just, you know, their egos are huge, and I don’t bow down to people like that.”
Pippen’s unwavering stance on collaborating with Michael Jordan and Phil Jackson came as a startling revelation, especially considering the extraordinary achievements they had collectively accomplished within the realm of professional basketball. Despite Phil Jackson’s unparalleled coaching success, leading the Bulls to numerous NBA titles, he failed to earn Pippen’s unwavering respect. It appears that the once-legendary era of the Chicago Bulls dynasty has, undeniably, drawn to a definitive close, as all remarkable chapters eventually do.
In addition to reflecting on his past, Pippen also ventured into the realm of the present-day basketball landscape. When discussing the phenomenal LeBron James, who recently completed his remarkable 20th season in the NBA, Pippen confidently shared his belief that LeBron will ultimately etch his name in the annals of basketball history as the player with the most remarkable statistical achievements. He unabashedly proclaimed,
“There’s no comparison to him, none. LeBron James will be the greatest statistical [player] to ever play the game of basketball.”
While this statement undoubtedly places LeBron on a statistical pedestal, the enduring question of whether it also propels him to the status of the greatest player overall remains a captivating topic of ongoing debate and speculation.
