A Note to Scottie Pippen
2011-05-28 10:17:00 Come on Scottie.We know timing was never your thing.In 1990, against the hated Pistons in the deciding 7th game of the Eastern Conference Finals, you sat....migraine right?With 1.8 seconds remaining in Game 3 of the 1994 Eastern Conference Semifinals, your team, our team, was all knotted at 102 with the New York Knicks. Michael Jordan was in Birmingham, this was your team, your time. You sat. As Bulls fans, we had reached the pinnacle of NBA fandom before, six times to be exact, and we all pined for a seventh taste of the pride and ecstasy that you, with help from a guy named Michael Jordan, gratuitously and unforgettably supplied. We could taste it.And then it was gone.And before the body was cold,...
So this Scottie Pippen thing, urgh.. LeBron better than Jordan?
2011-05-28 00:47:00 Look, if you've been reading this blog for awhile, you know I'm not the hugest Jordan guy around. Unlike many Bulls fans, I didn't get fall in love with the Bulls during the Jordan era. In fact, growing up, Magic Johnson was my favorite player. I was heart broken when the Bulls won their first title. I came around, when Jordan joined the White Sox, my favorite team in all of sports at the time, and cheered loudly for the Bulls during the second threepete. To top it off, I've always liked Scottie Pippen more than Jordan for the most part, and I say all this just so you know I'm not some legacy protecting moron with a...

Keeping an eye on Luol Deng
2007-10-31 22:16:00 Everything that I?ve heard or read in the media about Luol Deng describes him as a polite, humble 23-year old kid. But for such a nice kid he is creating all kinds of hostility and tension in Chicago. Suddenly, columnists are battling with each other and sports talk-show hosts are clashing with listeners. All of these ...

Subplots to get you ready for the season: LeBron James
2007-10-20 18:32:00 Despite the rumors swirling around the media, a trade for Kobe Bryant is unlikely. The asking price seems a tad bit high for John Paxson?s liking. Still, the Bulls don?t need Bryant to win the Eastern Conference. The additions of Ray Allen, Kevin Garnett, Zach Randolph, Rashard Lewis, etc. don?t change the fact that the East ...

Taking time to appreciate history

Gotta Be The Shoes...Or Not
2007-06-22 16:37:00 Michael Jordan will always be remembered as one of the greatest basketball players ever. Even his unfortunate stint in Washington won't change that. But his real legacy might be his shoes. Air Jordans were the sneaker every kid wanted to own, no matter if you grew up in the city or the suburbs.Those sneakers were special, but not all versions of athlete endorsed shoes have turned out so great. Some were downright ugly. Beauty is most definitely in the eye of the beholder, but we are going to attempt to bring you the worst of athlete endorsed footwear.- David Robinson's Nike Air Command ForceA hideous shoe. The "FORCE" on the tongue stood out too much, and the small amount of yellow-green coloring around the heel looked like they were trying too hard to be edgy. Not to mention the out-of-place electric blue "Nike Air" stitching on the back of the shoe. The shoe just didn't work. It seemed like they were going in too many directions and couldn't agree on one.- Andre Agassi's Nike...

Rumor: Scottie Pippen to the Heat?!?
2007-02-16 16:54:01 This is about as far fetched of a comeback as I have ever heard, but if there is one team in dire need of a backup point guard, the Heat are one of them. At 41 years of age, Scottie Pippen is making a serious push to get back in the league this season to help a contending team in the playoffs. That team could be the Heat… “I’m thinking of trying to come back for the playoffs,” Pippen said. “Something like the last two months of the season, somewhere I can come back and play limited minutes to start, play point forward for someone and build toward the playoffs. It’s something I’ve been thinking about for the last three months.” We all know the Heat have been desperate for a point guard with Jason Williams hurt and Gary Payton proving ineffective. Pippen could relieve ball-handling pressure on Dwyane Wade and work inside with Shaquille O’Neal. And he lives in Ft. Lauderdale. Here’s a little mixtape to remind you how good ...
