Scottie Pippen, the eternal squire of Michael Jordan in the Bulls, has made some very tough statements against Phil Jackson, whoever was the coach of those Bulls of legend, calling him a racist. The former Chicago player has charged hard against his former team and whoever was his coach, accusing Jackson of getting to prepare a winning play for the rookie Toni Kukoc in the 1994 playoffs and calling it a “racial movement”.
Pippen defended his serious accusations on the show “Dan Patrick Show” when asked to clarify if he meant that Jackson it’s actually racist.
This was the conversation:
Dan Patrick: “By saying a ‘race movement,’ then you’re calling Phil Jackson a racist.”
Pippen: “I have no problem with that.”
DP: “Do you think Phil was or is he?”
Pippen: “Oh, s”.
I despise Kobe Bryant after leaving the Lakers
While he did not give concrete reasons to support his claim, Pippen criticized the coach for writing a “story” about Kobe Bryant after leaving the Lakers in 2004 … only to come back a year later. “Who will do that?” Pippen said. Name me someone in professional sports who would do that. I think he got to expose Kobe in a way that I shouldn’t have. “
“You are the head coach. You are the guy who sits in the locker room and says to the players: ‘This is a circle and everything stays within the circle’ because that’s what the team is all about. “Scottie added …” But you, as the head coach, you open it up and now you go out and try to belittle at the time, probably one of the best players ever. “
Phil Jackson was a racist, oh yeah, I was sharing a dressing room with him and I was training with him
Patrick rebutted that stance by saying that it would cast doubt on the loyalty of Jackson, not the supposed racist views, but Pippen He insisted that his personal experiences speak for themselves: “I’ve been sharing a dressing room with him,” he said. “I was training with him, you are watching him from afar.”
Pippen also slipped a zasca to Michael Jordan, stating that he was always aware of when were the cameras close and that when that happened he behaved differently. “He will do it to attend to his legacy”he commented. It seems that Pippen’s experience with the Bulls, despite everything they won, was not very satisfying. What is certain is that I didn’t leave many friends there. And after attacks like these, less will be left.
