Scottie Pippen
Oscar Robertson
John Stockton

????????????????

Responses:

So Pippen is better than MJ? Take off the cowboy hat, Karl. It's messed up your brain. -- nm - Inigo Jun 5, 07:53 14
- Pippen and MJ didn't play the same position, did they? He's actually saying Oscar Robertson is better than MJ. -- nm - Jim Jun 5, 07:58 9
  - MJ played mostly small foward, I thought. -- nm - Inigo Jun 5, 08:01 3
    - SG. His comeback was at SF. -- nm - David Jun 5, 08:04
    - SG -- nm - Krusty Jun 5, 08:03 1
      - Pippen and Rodman were the PF and SF. Kukoc as well. -- nm - Krusty Jun 5, 08:04
  - No. MJ was a guard and Pippen was a forward. He's really taking LeBron over Jordan. -- nm - Krusty Jun 5, 08:00 4
    - Hmmm...Wilt at Center, Lebron at Poward Forward, Pippen at Small Forward, Oscar at Shooting Guard, Stockton at Point. -- nm - Jim Jun 5, 08:01 3
      - Magic at point, Oscar or Jordan at SG, Duncan at PF, Bird at SF and Kareem at C. -- nm - Krusty Jun 5, 08:08
      - Wasn't MJ a shooting guard? -- nm - Jim Jun 5, 08:01 1
        
        A SG with the ability to bring up the ball and defend your best scorer, yes. -- nm - Strongbad Jun 5, 08:03
- I think that was purely to jam MJ a bit. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 5, 07:54 3
  - Pretty sure MJ knows what Carl thinks of him, anyway. -- nm - Spawn Jun 5, 07:55 1
    - And doesn't care one bit. He just flashes the rings and Karl can't say shit. -- nm - Krusty Jun 5, 07:56
  - It has to be. -- nm - Strongbad Jun 5, 07:54
i wouldn't put pippen in the top 5, but i think he generally gets a little underrated....nm - x Jun 5, 07:53 2
- Yeah, MJ would have been nothing without him. Glad to see Carl recognizes who the true power was. -- nm - Spawn Jun 5, 07:54
- I agree with this. He was content to let Jordan dominate but few could do what he did. -- nm - pmb Jun 5, 07:54
L3! -- nm - Spawn Jun 5, 07:51
Haters gonna hate. -- nm - Krusty Jun 5, 07:50

- I would go Russell, Duncan, Bird, MJ, Magic... and I'm pretty sure I'd win. -- nm - Strongbad Jun 5, 07:51 12

    - There's no way I can make a case for Stockton. He has 1 skill. That would be like having Carmelo on a Top 5 team. -- nm - Strongbad Jun 5, 07:54 10
      - Yup. Stockton and Pippen don't belong near that list. -- nm - Krusty Jun 5, 07:56 9
        
        i agree stockton shouldn't be on *that* list, but he clearly had more than one skill... - x Jun 5, 08:00 8
        
        Word. He's definitely on the short list of the best true point guards in NBA history. -- nm - Jim Jun 5, 08:02
        
        Agreed. He was great and had mad skills. Maybe in my top 5 of PG's but not my #1. - Krusty Jun 5, 08:02 6
        
        I've always thought that any team would be in trouble if John Stockton was your best player/option - Strongbad Jun 5, 08:10 5
        
        Number one all time in steals AND assists. -- nm - David Jun 5, 08:21
        
        dude, he was a steal machine. top 10 every year he played.he was the classic great defender who made up for being not so athletic by being smart....nm - x Jun 5, 08:18 1
        
        And he was a rather dirty player. One of the worst. - Krusty Jun 5, 08:20
        
        He was a great defender. His skills were more on the offensive end though. He is top five with Magic, Isiah, The Big O and I'd say either - Krusty Jun 5, 08:14
        
        Gotta consider who made the list though. Malone played almost his whole career with Stockton - Jim Jun 5, 08:12
heh. nm -- nm - groiny Jun 5, 07:47
