Prime Kobe vs Prime Pippen vs Prime Wade

[Dragic4Life]

Pick one player to build your franchise around...

Kobe- 5 rings

Pippen- 6 rings

Wade- 3 rings

[IncarceratedBob]

I need more info to make my decision. What about total points scored

[LoneyROY7]

Damn, each one of these guys has more rings than LeBron.

Kobe has 3* asterisks

Wade has 1* asterisk

But I don't think Pippen has any, plus he was the closest to being a 1b type player, instead of a sidekick


So I'll go to Pippen

Kobe, Wade then Pip.

I love Pip and he's one of the best all around players ever but he wasn't on Kobe's and Wade's level because he could never carry a team offensively. He just didn't have the iso game to consistently break down a set defender and create his own shot. Pip was an amazing second fiddle but not good enough to be "the man". At least not good enough to win a ring as one.

I wonder how much time you spend doing what you do.

What was MJ's record without Pippen again? I have a hard time remembering...

Lol. You're kidding right? Going by your criteria, Pip should have 6 asterisks as MJ was clearly the man in all 6 of their championship runs.

Even in Kobe's 3 peat, there were stretches, especially in the stacked Western Conference playoffs, when he was more dominant than Shaq.

How many wins in the Finals did LeBron have without Wade?

Agree. Pippen is probably the closest to an alpha out of the 3.

Btw MJ is 1/9 before he met Scottie "50 Greatest NBA Player of All Time" Pippen.

Yet Lebron was ringless before going to Miami.

Doesn't take too long (3rd post) for this thread to turn into a Lebron thread.

ISH is just sad.
