Didn't take long until some Bulls slurper came up with a faggot ass excuse to explain Pippen's embarrassment of a series. He played every regular season game that season, and at 34, he was the same age Kobe was when Kobe was 1st team All NBA dropping 27/6/6. Save the excuses, I thought Pippen came from "the tough I play through separated shoulders era". If Pippen was as great as you drunks claim he is, then even a 75% version of Pippen should've been able to dominate a pampered cream puff pimple faced new school chump who just turned old enough to buy a beer on the game's 2nd biggest stage.

But nope, ski-slope-nose couldn't rise to the occasion, and was absolutely embarrassed out of the gym by Kobe 21 yr old Bryant lol.

Kobe put up 20/5/5 on 44% FG. That ain't exactly lighting up the world.
20/5/6*....44%....52% from 3!!! Kobe also averaged 1.6 steals and 2.1 blocks.
Didn't say that he didn't have a good series. However, The line of thinking that Kobe lit Pippen up in that series is totally false.

Agree. He only put up Scottie Pippen-like numbers. :skip: :skip: :skip: :skip: :skip: :skip: :skip: :skip:
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

If any guard in history averaged 20/5/5 with 52% from 3pt for a season while playing lockdown 1st team all defense, they'd be an all star. If any guard averaged that for a career, they'd be a HOFer. To put up those numbers, against somebody who's allegedly an all world defender, despite his age putting him about 75-80% of what he was in his prime (although @ 34 years old, a true durable superstar wouldn't have had that far a dropoff), is even more remarkable.

More importantly, it reveals how well Kobe Bryant could've transitioned nicely had time reversed into the past and he had to play versus the premier players from 5-8 years prior all in their primes. It's equally telling, of how poorly Pippen would've transitioned versus the superstars moving into the future into the 2000s and 2010s as he struggled versus a Kobe Bryant who at 21, was still only in his 2nd season as a Laker full time starter.

Like someone mentioned, Pippen would be at best a Kawhi Leonard today, and that's being extremely generous. Keep in mind, Lebron James tuned Leonard up at 28/8/4 on 58% from the field and 52% from 3. All things considered, Pippen most likely would've fouled out or been forced off of James or been assisted with double team help had he been tasked with Kawhi's assignment.

No offence bro, but I'm talking to Y2k. The point of bringing up that hypothetical obviously sailed way over your head, and I'm not in the mood today to have to hold your hand to make you understand simple conversational context, especially when you're not even being addressed here.

Huh? I don't get it. So being an idiot who can't comprehend a simple conversation is part of your schtick now?

I get the idea we all say certain things at times to puppeteer conversations to fit a narrative or agenda. But to "pretend" to be at a 2nd grade reading level with no sustainable cause or reason is a real head scratcher for me. So yeah, I guess "you got me".

Congrats?

Deez, you've regressed into this troll shtick so often that it's becoming your normal persona here.

If your point of posting here is for the rest of us to assume that every single post you make is a troll......and nothing else.......well, you're succeeding bruh.
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

Apparently deez is just on another level compared to the rest of the board. We're all just pawns in his little game.

We have enough TDK's, Griff's, dwc's, Cleve's and other assorted jackasses that fill that role.

Don't be that guy.

I use to be a puppetmaster when I was a troll in the old days, but I got nothing on Deez's level of mastery and technical brilliance.
Taking a break from the board. Please reference my last post for more details if you are interested.
