Michael Jordan, the iconic figure in NBA history, known for his six championship wins with the Chicago Bulls, recently shared his thoughts on the most underrated players of his era. Despite his phenomenal career, Jordan was quick to acknowledge the talent around him, often overshadowed by his own greatness.
Among Jordan's picks was his longtime teammate, Scottie Pippen. Despite being by Jordan's side for all six championship victories, Pippen had some harsh words about his playing experience with Jordan. "Our game is a team game, and one player can't do it," Pippen explained. "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. It was all 1-on-1, shooting bad shots. And all of a sudden, we become a team, and we start winning. Everybody forgot who he was."
Tom Gugliotta, another name on Jordan's list, enjoyed a solid career across several teams, including the Washington Bullets and the Minnesota Timberwolves.
