Who would have been an equivalent backcourt sidekick to Pippen in the 90s

Every single one of these Pip arguments are idiotic because Pippen wouldn't be Pippen without MJ, period.

You’re the one who started with the pippen is overrated because he wasn’t a 30ppg scorer or lead a team to a title, it was after that that the alts responded. Also, you don’t say anything about 3bakl saying kersey was better lol

I never said Kersey was better, but his best years compare to Pippen's normal years - did pippen ever lead his team in playoff scoring while making the Finals like Kersey did in 1990?.. Drexler made the Finals averaging 18 ppg that year, while Kersey was the #1 option - those blazers were loaded and it shows that Kersey was a high-level player like Pippen

Kersey's Blazers beat beat KJ's Suns in the WCF (who had just beaten Magic's 1 seed).. And yes prime KJ > Pip

Clyde or Mitch would've definitely been an equivalent backcourt sidekick to compliment Pippen. Pippen/Reggie works too.

Great thread OP

Could they have led the league in scoring?

Because that's what the Bulls needed from their #1 option every time they won

Has any other team ever won with the league scoring champ?

Can you imagine Pippen in today's relaxed defensive rules where he's not even allowed to hand check? He wouldn't be any better than Kawhi on defense but would be a monster on offense.
