NBA icons Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen shared a remarkable 10 seasons together with the Chicago Bulls. During this time, the dynamic duo propelled the team to extraordinary success, leading the Bulls to two three-peat championships. The first came from 1991 to 1993, followed by the second between 1996 and 1998.
Recently, Pippen opened up about his complicated relationship with Jordan during an appearance on the Patrick Bet-David podcast. He revealed some candid insights, admitting that Jordan is a difficult person to deal with. Pippen acknowledged that the bond they once had is no longer the same, and he doesn’t see it ever returning to what it used to be.
“I just think Michael is a very difficult person to deal with. I played with him for years, so I know that when it’s time for you to move in your direction, then go in your direction,” Pippen said.
“The relationship is not where it was or not what it used to be, and it’s never going to be the same. So why try and make something out of nothing? Or try to make something that was never there?” he added.
Scottie Pippen Chooses Michael Jordan Over LeBron James In Era Swap Debate
Even though Scottie Pippen acknowledged the tension in his relationship with Michael Jordan, he still chose Jordan over LeBron James when it came to discussing greatness. During a recent interview, Pippen was asked who would dominate if the two superstars played in each other’s eras, and Pippen chose Jordan.
“Probably Michael. Remember, Michael era, my era early on [was] very physical. 85, 90-point games. Different. In today’s game, we’re looking at some games that get you at 130, 120, and so on. I think Michael would thrive off of this being free, open, not having the physicality that he had to play in night in and night out,” Pippen said.
However, off the court, their relationship was far from the harmonious partnership they displayed during games. Pippen even went so far as to claim that NBA scorekeepers in 1988 manipulated statistics to help Jordan win the Defensive Player of the Year award.

Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James has been accused of being a serial cheater who makes women sign non-disclosure agreements before getting involved with them.
James has kept a squeaky-clean reputation since he was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2003. But, every now and then, someone comes out with claims of infidelity.
The latest such accuser happens to be podcaster Sofia Franklyn, who has asserted that LeBron, as well as actor Leonardo DiCaprio, get their associates to make contact with women, who are then asked to sign NDAs once they agree to hook up.
