Scottie Pippen made his way to the news recently after commenting about Michael Jordan's style of play prior to him joining the Chicago Bulls.

Following his comments about MJ, fans quickly went online to roast Pippen for the words he chose regarding Jordan's play.

Pippen's remarks weren't received well by the fans. Most of them took the chance to make fun of the seven-time All-Star. There were also some fans who included the fact that Marcus Jordan, Michael's first-born child is currently dating Scottie's ex-wife, Larsa.

"I've seen Michael Jordan play before I came to play with the Bulls. You guys have seen him play. He was a horrible player. He was horrible to play with." Pippen said.

Following his comments, fans started to make fun of the NBA legend:

While Pippen's arrival improved MJ's chances at winning a title, there's no denying that Jordan's main responsibility in the team was to shoot the ball. There were, however, times when he knew that he had to pass up some shots for better chances at winning.

Pippen won six titles with "His Airness" and the Bulls. Without Jordan, who knows how many titles the defensive forward could've won.

Back in 2020, Netflix released a documentary about Jordan called 'The Last Dance', which covers the superstar's final title run and season with Chicago.

It was appreciated by fans and players alike, but Scottie Pippen had some issues with the documentary.

According to Pippen, Jordan used the documentary to tell his side only. Based on the remarks made by the seven-time All-NBA, 'The Last Dance' was made to prove to everyone that he's better than LeBron James.

Pippen stated:

"Except, Michael was determined to prove to the current generation of fans that he was larger-than-life during his day and still larger than LeBron James, the player many consider his equal, if not superior".

"So Michael presented his story, not the story of the 'Last Dance,' as our coach, Phil Jackson, billed the 1997-98 season once it became obvious the two Jerrys were intent on breaking up the gang no matter what happened."

Pippen also talked about how he was portrayed in the documentary and shared his sentiments about it. The Hall of Fame forward wasn't happy with how Jordan used the documentary to uplift himself.

The 1992 Olympic gold medalist said he thought "it was more about Michael trying to uplift himself and to be glorified".
