Scottie Pippen's Controversial Comments on Michael Jordan and LeBron James

Scottie Pippen, former small forward and six-time champion with the Chicago Bulls, called Michael Jordan a "horrible player" before Pippen joined the team in 1987. However, this claim is objectively wrong, as Jordan had already established himself as a superstar in the league. Pippen's argument seems to stem from personal gripes with Jordan, and his comments lack strong, logical evidence. Pippen also praised LeBron James as the greatest "statistical" player of all time, but still believes Jordan is the greatest player to ever play the game.
