I don't care what the likes of ESPN or Skip over at Fox spew, but when respected greats speak like this, it's a little irritating
Pippen has been salty for the last 25 years, every since he didn't get paid. Kobe corssing him over for one of the most iconic humiliation comebacks of all time certainly didn't make him like us. Screw them. Also... he is making it sound like travel is some necessary hardship and rite of passage. It's a damn necessity and is not something that should be a part of the game. WTF is this? Let's see who had more leg room in their flight home? All these past players... with their "we used to play in them Converses" BS.
He took shots at Rondo specifically too, saying if this were a normal playoffs he wouldn’t be making threes because of the crowd and your depth perception being thrown off. I knew the excuses and asterisk talk was going to come as soon as it looked like we were favorites, because we’re the hated Lakers and because of LeBron, but yes, seeing people like Pippen say that is annoying.
I actually heard Shaq saying the same thing on TNT... so there are legs to that. P.S. not today... some time ago. He would know, wouldn't he?
I hated Stern for the longest time because of this. I don't hate him anymore though. Who am I kidding, I still hate him. AS for Jimmy, the dude had no idea how to build a team. I honestly think half the people on this site could make better decisions than he did. Just an F'ing idiot. I am so happy that Jeannie grew a pair and dumped his arse. I feel bad for Mitch, but frankly, the fact that he couldn't see the writing on the wall and choose the right side of this was good enough to see him go. I feel for him because he had the potential for legacy here and now he is just a negative, he completely ruined his whole time here with that s***.
nunn looked pretty damn good tonight if dragic misses the rest of the series, i don't think it'll affect the heat too much if nunn can play like he did during the regular season
