A little edgy and likes to party hard but is nice to the fans NBA players hated Dennis in San Antonio because he said he was bisexual to get attention Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a joke what they were doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy 2 Times Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 The Pistons were bitches. Throwing elbows, punches, and intentionally trying to injure players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 I am thoroughly enjoying the series. The clarification about Isiah getting left off the Dream Team was pretty great. Like everyone else I thought Jordan was the reason for that happening and it was pretty hilarious to hear that it was everybody. The one thing I will say is that they completely undersell how callous of a guy Pippen was in that episode about his contract problems. For instance he was legendary for being the stingiest dude ever. I knew a bunch of servers and valets in Chicago and Florida that he was a complete jerk too. He regularly stiffed service workers and would encourage people that he was out with to do the same. His nickname in places he hung out at was No Tippin Pippen. There is no doubt that that they left out a ton of stuff with respect to his whole contract situation, no way it went down like he described.

I felt the same way about Tiger. No rivals to consistently challenge him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They came out with a Dream Team documentary a few years ago which was very good, but if you haven’t read it before Jack McCallum’s Dream Team book is awesome. Great insider stories and a really fun read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did discuss Pippen's attitude about the Olympics and Toni Kukoc. Haven't discussed how in 1994, the season Jordan did not play, he took a powder when Jackson ran a play late in the game to Kukoc vs. the Knicks. May be it will come up when they discuss that whole season. Was very fair to Kukoc's view that he had no idea what the office politics of the Bulls were before he got there, and barely knew who Jerry Krause was until he signed with the Bulls.
