Scottie Pippen was Batman to Michael’s Superman.

The only mistake Michael made in the documentary was when he mocked Pippen’s migraines before 1990 game 7 against Detroit.
Pippen wasn’t faking an injury. MJ was  apoplectic when mocking Pippen for not being able to play that game.

That was the only time Scottie wasn’t treated right. He was hurt and migraines aren’t like the back injury he played thru in 1998.

Pippen didn’t get enough credit for how he played thru back pain in game 6 1998. I am a fairly healthy guy and last June I strained a back muscle and for a week I couldn’t stand straight up and walking was immense pain. That injury had to be hell and Pippen played thru it.

Jordan shouldn’t have said Pippen was selfish for getting the surgery right before the season. The Bulls weren’t giving him a new contract and the guy had played into June the 2 previous seasons.
Screw rehabing in the offseason. If the Bulls took care of him I bet he doesn’t do that. Plus the Bulls shopped Pippen before the 1997 draft.

I found out the Celtics offered the 3rd and 6th picks in the 1997 draft for Pippen and Jordan got Reinsdorf to kill the deal.

Pippen didn’t owe them anything.

Jordan should have treated Pippen better with the Pistons stuff and surgery opinion:

The stuff in 1994 with the Knicks was fair game.
