Rich Paul says Scottie Pippen was more impactful than Michael Jordan on Chicago Bulls

Brandon King

If Rich Paul’s lips are moving chances are he’s   either engaging in some pro-LeBron verbal lunacy or he’s outright lying and many times those are simultaneous events. In his latest instance of oratorical diarrhea Paul said the following: “I think Scottie’s rings are the same as Michael Jordan’s. He was the most impactful player on the team. If you unplug Scottie Pippen off that team, Jordan is 0-6”  Just when you think he can’t get any more asinine with these moronic takes, Paul once again assures us that he has plenty…

LeBron James attempts to rewrite history again on podcast

Brandon King

Since its inception back in 2024, we rightfully coined Lebron James’ Mind the Game as a propagandacast. Despite its stated purpose of dissecting the “X’s and O’s” of basketball, rather than elucidating the masses on the intricacies of the game of basketball, the show has proven to be merely another vehicle to rewrite history into a pro-LeBron narrative.  In a recent episode, the subject of super teams was being bantered about, and here is what LeBron had to say:  “But I mean the game is going to continue to evolve,…

It seems we may know at least one of the shoes slated to make a return. Sources have indicated to Sneakershoptalk that the Air More Uptempo is slated to make another retail run. Worn by Scottie Pippen on the 1996 USA Olympic team ( we do not refer to them as…

Basketball Fans, Pippen’s Back: Scottie Pippen’s Sneaker Legacy

worldofbc

I’ll leave all of the rave reviews and technical aspects of this shoe to the others, but I was shocked to see that Nike had decided to add a new (not a retro) sneaker to the Pippen line. Considering the fact that he hadn’t actually played an official NBA game in 11 years (those NBA All-Star Weekend Shootout appearances don’t count!!), it’s still refreshing for a fan like myself–who came of age during the heyday of the championship years of the 90’s Bulls–to be treated to a semblance of the 90’s/early 00’s when we could…
