Kobe Bryant, Chasing History!

[Ancient Legend]

Of course Pippen led the team that Jordan built for lots of years. You guys do remember MJ MADE Scottie the great player he was.

Where do you think Scottie got his skills? When he was drafted he was just a skinny long-armed project from an unknown college.

Jordan and Kobe's teammates have nothing to do with their individual scoring ability, their FG%, or FGs missed. Their best years were with bad teams, making all points about their teammates completely irrelevant.

I guess you guys are attempting a subject change, since the initial facts are no longer debatable.

Kobe made a #1 pick Kwame Brown and #3 pick Adam Morrison into scrubs.

Pathetic.

Uh, Pippen was a great defender and all around player before he even met MJ. He was a top 5 draft pick, Bulls were aware of the skill set he possessed and traded for him. He played PG most of his life before a growth spurt and developed his court vision and ball handling skills then. He averaged 3 spg in college (more than MJ btw), had great team defense instincts as early as his rookie season (and back then, MJ wasn't even the vocal leader we know him as). Pippen did what all players do, get better as he gained more experience. Phil is the one who helped his game more than anyone by putting him in an offensive system that would tailor to his strengths. MJ probably made him a better individual defender, but other than that, I'm not seeing it. I know it's easy to look back through homer-vision and rewrite history but this MJ made Pippen shit really has to stop.

If Jordan simply ''made Pippen" why dosen't he make another Pippen in Charlotte right now? Why couldn't he do that in Washington? Why didn't he make any of his other teammates from 85-87 as good as Pippen was?

Yep!

Jordan drafted both of these players and were reduced to bench fodder before they came to LA
