Has Jordan ever discussed the 1993-94 season when the Bulls won 55 games without him?

Pip reached his ceiling under MJ, he was a great sidekick star but he didn’t have the mental fortitude to be a true #1.

MJ = GOAT

Bron = GOAT floor raiser

If I wanna win a ring, I pick MJ.

If I wanna take a 20 win squad and push them to 45 or 50 wins, I pick Bron.

Kobe & Curry are not in this conversation.

You can argue for Wilt and KAJ.
I pick Curry to lead a championship run over LeBron, I can’t unsee his weak non competitive mentality, Kobe is a level above LeBron

Meaning given Pippen's track record over his career of being anti-clutch there's absolutely no guarantee they close that series out regardless.

Did I really need to spell that out for you?
No, you didn’t have to spell it out, breh.

I just googled (I know it's not a reliable source) but they were predicted to win 44 that year. They over exceed. That's why MJ doesn't talk about it.

I think that actually happened. Even my pops who hates Reinsdorf said that’s how it went down.

IIRC even in the Last Dance Pip talked about wanting to be secure financially
An owner saying a player shouldn't take a very team friendly deal for the prime of his career? :mjlol:

you believe that :comeon:

ITS A FACT.

IT WASN'T A TEAM FRIENDLY
DEAL WHEN HE SIGNED IT.

IT BECAME A TEAM FRIENDLY DEAL
MID WAY THROUGH THE CONTRACT
AS THE SALARY CAP INCREASED.

YOU THINK SCOTTIE
WOULDN'T HAVE PUBLICLY
REBUKED THIS BY NOW
IF IT WAS CAP?

HIS OWN AGENT TOLD
HIM NOT TO SIGN IT
:devil:
:evil:

Nah, telling him if he took the long term deal they would not be open to renegotiating if down the line he was underpaid because of an increasing cap.

I'm sorry. I refuse to believe Reinsdorf cheap ass told him not to sign that deal.

Not buying that bullshyt. No pun intended.

But if y'all saying it's true, Scottie is a bigger moron than I thought financially.

I do believe his agent told him not to though
