D-Whistle winning a ring by himself is another huge misconception in sports
Wade got the better scoring (and flopping
), but overall I'm taking Pippen.

the no jordan season.
he was lebron lite. did everything, score 20+, rebound, assists. and he played LOCKDOWN defense. bron has solid perimeter de. but not lockdown like pip. pip also had a nice little post game. its not just about points per game. its about who makes his team better. what i do remember is this. the bulls won 50+ games with pippen as the #1. without pippen having a true #2. dwade only won 50+ games with shaq as his #2 and with lbj and bosh as his teammates.

@ how playing with bron has lowered wade's standing, in the span of 2 seasons 
I'd actually pay money to be able to go back to the
and read some old wade threads

Now, this isn't just aimed @ u, it's directed @ everyone that says Flash won it by himself. Now, I'll be nice and throw out the reg. season stats (which helped him get there to begin wit'), and leave out the referee conspiracies (possibly up for debate). O'Neal DID play in those Finals. Do y'all think Flash woulda still won it all w/o Kazaam's contributions/presence in the Finals?

Pippen in his prime, point forward, superior defense, more consistent three point shot.
Only thing wade has over Pippen is the tenacity and other intangible qualities such as leadership.

How were we to know that Wade would become flabby and sick so quickly? He was a 25/5/5 player two seasons ago and now hes at 15/5/5.
Watch him drop 40 tonight now that Ive been talking shyt about him all playoffs.
I've never been that impressed with Wade. He's good but for the most part his teams were never that great when he was the leader. Plus I'm a Bulls fan so I've seen a lot of Pippen and all the extra stuff he did on the court to me was more valuable to the success of the Bulls then what Wade did for the Heat. Just my opinion but I think Wade is overrated.

We're only like 3 or 4 years from people arguing to death he's better than kobe and lebron, or the very least their peer and equal and comparing him to young jordan....not even two years removed from a season-long national debate on who should be the Heat's first option and closer between him and Bron and him outplaying Lebron in the Finals...to today, people arguing he's not even in Pippen's league, career wise, and getting killed in a poll 3to1...

thats how it goes..
but flip this thread and say "MJ had better supporting players/options than Lebron.." and these dikk riders will lose their mind and say Bron has a stacked team and had to pair up with wade and bosh for titles
i think thru media and nostalgia theres ppl out there who will forever disregard reality and ride with MJ and those bulls teams no matter what
Have thought long and hard about this, and I'ma have to go w/ Flash on this one. Better free-throw shooter (underrated quality), and proven playoff performer as the #1 option. When Pippen had his time to shine in the playoffs as the main guy, his numbers/percentages dropped from his regular season stats. Wade's been a great defender himself in his prime, while bein' the man guy. I think Pippen's career as a whole benefited from playin' next to his Airness, not havin' 2 deal wit' all that pressure. Honestly think his numbers/efficiency would've suffered if not for Jordan.
