Scottie Pippen: "I was LeBron before LeBron"
- Thread starter Raquinotj
- Start date
Putting shaq and wade up there?Shaq/Kobe
Kareem/Magic
Shaq/Wade
remember those teams?
Wade was great that year but shaq? May as well say Kobe and Bynum
Mike was a rookie/ sophomore who lead his team to the playoffs before pippen, that deserves a little more credit.
Including shaq after age 34 is like including any average center in basketball, lebron and Mosgov are a equally talented duo.
You just compared Mosgov to Shaq when he was putting up 20 & 10 in 30 minutes and commanding double teams?
Shaq was a year removed from being #2 in MVP voting
No he isn't
I was about to reply to you, then saw you about -3000 in the hole rep wise
I will anyway though
Lebron isn't as good as Magic but, he has a semblance of his court vision and is a natural passer.
Lebron can lock down the other team's best defender like Pippen; similar body length.
Lebron has handles/moves like Penny.
Lebron is a mack truck, a living breathing brick wall like Karl Malone.
There's a little bit of Shawn Kemp in there too, in terms of how dynamic he his and his jumping ability.

Has any GOAT ever had a better #2 option than MJ? Kobe would probably double his ring total if he had a Pippen/Bron caliber type of player.
Kobe couldn't even do that with shaq what makes you think he could with pippen

The bolded are lies fukk outta here
Lies how?
Does Lebron not lock down other defenders? Have we not saw that repeatedly? You do realize I hate Lebron right? Did we not see Lebron turn 2011 Derrick Rose into nothing?
I said Lebron has moves/handles like Penny because I dont remember Magic having handles like those two. The way he moved around was much more......old school
he is not so wrong..
lebron has moer strenght but the way they view the game is very similar..
thing is .. lebron is like magic, jordan, bird and vince carter
magic when he passes.. jordan when he drives... bird when bird uise to take over in the 4th..
all that with the heart of vince carter
cry baby looking ass nikka
They don't realize that Pip was in charge of guarding the other team's best scorer a majority of the times. People forget that the Bulls only lost 6 more games the year after Jordan retired. And was one bad foul call away from going to the ECF. Pippen led the Bulls in all major categories. Should've been the MVP that year. Cats that are in their early to mid 20's need to do more research before they start spouting new age, social media rhetoric.

My dad claims Lebron is more like Oscar Robertson. 
People are really saying they don't play a similar game? 
They seriously play the game exactly the same except LeBron is expected to score more and Pippen is a better defender. Go watch that '91 Pistons series and tell me that's not basically LeBron on the floor.
I will say that he never was as dominant as LeBron, especially that 06-09 athletic monster LeBron

I disagree about lebrons handles being equal to penny's and about lebron locking down the other teams best scorer.Pennys handles were way better and lebron guarded derrick rose and his broke ass jumper for like 10 possessions
