Scottie Pippen nonsense potential reason

Scottie Pippen was talking nonsense long before MJ's son started dating his ex wife.

No Tippin Pippen!

The kid on the Grizzlies?

People talked about this and made jokes about it for a year or two while it was going on.

You guys don't think this has any impact on their relationship.

I mean MJ's son is dating Scottie's ex wife or was.
Just seems like something that would bother not just Scottie, but possibly alot of people.

You can keep reading over it but Scottie was talking nonsense long before MJ's son was dating his ex wife. Scottie is just jealous he's Robin and not Batman.

Things that really led Pippen to be bitter:

1) He chose to sign a below market contract and didn't make nearly the amount of money he should have made. For example on the 97/98 Bulls, he was the sixth highest paid player, just behind Luc Longley

2) Despite maybe being one of the best players of the 90s, he's always seen as the sidekick. When he got the chance to be the man, he didn't deliver for reasons he felt were beyond his control but he still got the blame for

3) He got scammed out of a lot of the money he did make by his financial advisor

4) He was divorced multiple times

I think of all this lead to him sitting around going "I did everything right in my life. I worked hard. I played well. I treated people right. What do I get? The nickname No Tippin Pippen. A legacy of refusing to go into the game at winning time. Being known as nothing more than a sidekick. All my money stolen. Women divorcing me."

Then the Last Dance comes out and it's MJ won 6 titles with some other dudes including Pippen. Pushed him over the edge of bitterness.

thats a good well thought out reply

I buy it
