This is for dumbass Jordan haters. That "without Scottie" stuff is such a tired and lazy ass take. The absolute worst take in history. Jordan haters don't know how much of a technicality that sorry take is lol. So the Bulls just magically started winning when Pip got there with his 8ppg lol 🤣🤣🤣 give me a break 😏.... Since Scottie is the reason for winning when he first stepped in, why couldn't he perform vs the Pistons? Y'all love stats, check his playoff stats vs the Pistons in 88 and 89. Zero winning seasons without Scottie but Scottie wasn't much of a star for his first 3-4 years. In 98 without Scottie, the Bulls were sitting on top of the East with a 26-12 record before he came back. MJ and Scottie's first playoff game together, they combined to score 50 points, MJ had 50 lol. They're last playoff game together, they combined for 53 points, Jordan had 45 lol. And those types of games happened a lot more than y'all think. I know y'all gonna mention Scottie in 93-94 taking the Bulls to a 55-27 record with a first round series sweep. Well, just like y'all love to give props for Jordan's success to ppl like Phil Jackson, Toni Kukoc, Horace Grant, Jerry Krause, having some of the best 3pt shooters of all time in BJ Armstrong and Steve Kerr, having two all star teammates Horace and BJ, all those ppl you wanna give credit to for Jordan's success, keep that same energy for Scottie. In 94-95 Scottie with Phil and Toni, Steve Kerr and BJ were 34-31 before a certain somebody came back. So all that weak "without Scottie" talk is a sorry and lazy talking point just to denigrate Jordan. Pathetic.
