My reason he shouldnt be anywhere near the place without paying admission is when it was finally his time, he begged off bkz Kukoc got the shot..He was a good second fiddle who did nothing without MJ.

Its an insult to the HOF. He was a good NBA player, who without Jordan would have been average and NEVER EVER EVER EVER WOULD HAVE WON A TITLE. I hope Jordan takes a big shot at him, I think MJ is doing the speech or whatEver for him.

It isn't a matter of liking him. But he was clearly one of the best players in league history. Name a better all-around defender.

This is the key when discussing Pippen. He was obviously somewhat limited as a half-court offensive threat, but not many guys could legitimately guard the other team's point guard and their power forward (and the positions in between) at such a high level.
He was a great one-on-one defender, a great help defender, a great full-court defender, and a great half-court defender. You couldn't ask for any more on that side of the ball.

Can you name all the forwards in NBA history who had more steals and/or more assists than Scottie Pippen?

Hint: It's a trick question.
