- Scottie Pippen delivers his speech upon being enshrined to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as part of the class of 2010. To learn more about Scottie Pippen take a look at his official Hall of Fame bio at www.hoophall.co...
Dennis is ALWAYS there when one of his former team mates gets inducted...just great!
I thought it was pretty messed up Jordan didnt acknowledge him.
Justin Turner they were not friends
Douchebag Dave doesn’t matter if they were friends. Give credit where credit is due.
Douchebag Dave yet Dennis went to MJ’s hall of fame speech
Justin Turner coz he is the 🐐
One thing about Scottie I've always loved is his humility. He has confidence in himself WITHOUT arrogance. A rare thing.
It’s easy to have confidence when you’re along for the ride.
Dennis rodman
He’s way too Humble, really a Great Person & Athlete
But I really like scottie sometimes getting out of his humble pie like in the game vs pacers when he bowed to the Indy fans after Reggie Miller did it to them.
Beyond the court, all the NBA "Rings", USA "Gold" this is show Scottie is a Man's, MAN!
Those bulls didn't have a batman and robin, they had a batman and another batman
More like Superman and Batman
Garlicjr Made and a Rodman
schackmountain LMAO
schackmountain You, sir, just made my day.
Garlicjr Made lol well said.
If trees could talk they’d sound like Scottie
Thanks for a good laugh budy, almost fell off my chair!
You cracked me up dude! hahaha
😂😂😂😂😂😂 oh god 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahahah
hahahhhahahhhahha
“Thank you for being the best team mate. I will always cherish that experience.” Scottie to Jordan. How things have changed.
i think they still are friends, its like brothers quarrelling
That beef is mostly made up to sell books. Sure he spoke out about inaccuracies, but I'd speak out about that terrible movie as well. At the end of the day it was about Jordan alone, not Jordan and Co.
Just a tiny bit
@@crystalizedExposed Not happening man.
I am praying 🙏🏽 for there friendship 😢. The enemy comes to steal, Kill, And destroy. We must pray 🙏🏽 for them. Scottie is in pain. And no it’s not Jordan fault. It’s the one who kills steal and has come in Scottie and Micheal friendship.
Scottie may not have been the best player on the Bulls, but he was better than the best guy on the other team.
Well said.
The Clippers.
Kent Mains Scottie was the best all around player that why his stats where always on the top of the board. His game was strategy and support. Bulls wouldn't have been THE name in the 90s without him.
thewalloby Couldn't agree with you more. The year MJ was playing baseball Scottie led the team in every single category and should have been the league MVP that year.
Kent Mains Amazing you took the words right out my mouth. When thinking of Jordan you will always remember that Pippen was the anchor that steadied the ship when Jordan was full steam ahead.
50 years old and still perfect Hairline
+ClassyLad LOL he could have been bald. I didn't even notice. What type of man inspects another man's hairline?
+The Truth one who is used to watch LeBron James?
+jazztom86 lol
Burl Farlington It was a compliment towards Scottie. But thanks for reminding me how toxic the people on youtube are -_-
the one thing jordan had a disadvantage to scottie in
Dude should be a voice actor...
+Timmay14a Hold this W, man. You earned it! 😂
Agreed
lol,yeeh.
He sounds like the State Farm dude
Logan Graham he could compete with Morgan Freeman
Imagine Scottie Pippen and Morgan Freeman doing voice overs for audio books in a competition. LOL
Imagine Scottie Pippen, Morgan Freeman, and the All State guy arguing.
Morgan is god lol
@@yonaslegesse6535 all state guy called him Denzel for the longest they laughed at me
@@yonaslegesse6535 then all of a sudden came don vito corleone
Watching this after ‘the last dance’ makes me appreciate Scotty so much - I wish him and MJ could never grow old and play forever 😢🙏🏾
Well now Scottie got all resentful
Best duo in NBA history
I'm no huge Kobe fan and I'm definately not one of those people who says Kobe's as good as Jordan, but I have to say Kobe and Shaq really should be considered here
What about the best Trio? Jordan, Pippen and Rodman. The best if you ask me.
Yeah probably
Arthur Penn I'd say the sky hook is one of the best. But if you compared the two, I think Jordan late career post fade-away was a better shot. Further from the basket, took a lot of body and leg strength to get off and tremendous skill/focus. I don't want to take away from kareems sky hook, but as tall as he was to played closer to the rim, That's why I take the fade-away over the sky hook in my opinion, but there has not been a person able to replicate the sky hook yet..
Guys this is not about individual skill sets, this is about their team accomplishments. Jordan and Pippen have one other accomplishment that Magic and Kareem don't have besides the championships and that's both scoring 40 plus pts in the same game. Not even Russell and Jones have that.
Scottie wouldn't have won 6 if it wasn't for MJ. MJ wouldn't have won 6 if it wasn't for Scottie.
There was no sidekick in that team. It was all Batman and Superman.
Best Duo of all time
batman and superman wouldn't have won 6 if it wasn't for the joker! Rodman did the dirty work on all the hall of fame forwards and centers the bulls beat in the playoffs from 96-98
Its Like Peter Parker and Spiderman
Rodman??? Without him, MJ and Pippens wouldn't have had teh 6 rings.
Lavar Ball
I never looked at it that way. Cool
Bruh Rodman was a damn savage!
The best co-captain. Who was never ever jealous of MJ and much due to that, he became the league’s 2nd best... by a long mile. Soft spoken, humble, and inspiring. I could watch the 97 Bulls team all year every year.
@RADIN SYAH
-I couldn't have said it better, so.., thumbs up to you!
RADIN SYAH
He was very jealous of Jordan.
Bob Singh
Jealousy is a normal human feeling to have just because he’s jealous doesn’t me he hates him or he’s wrong. Pip is my fav player and Jordan is my 2nd he maybe envious but who wouldn’t. And Pip never really got the credit that he deserves just cause of Jordan greatness . I would be jealous of Jordan if I was his teammate but admire him too.
Teme Tsehaye
Pip sat down during the buzzer beater shot by Kukoc the year after Jordan left. Shows you what kind of fucked up dude he was. He wanted to shine when Jordon left but still came out looking like a tool. He would never have been anything without Jordan
Scottie shouldn't even be there.Coming from where he came from.Amazing journey.
such a gentle giant this man is. and what a graceful gazelle. love him.
Who's here after watching 4 episodes of the last dance...
@fuk u Nope, I just listen to these every year
Yessirrr
FACTSSSSSS BROOOOO😂😂😂
Ive watched 8 episodes already..
Analytics!!!
one of the most humble player ever
💯👌🏽on that dude.😎
lol Nahhh kid...thats an act..but he was a great player tho
Humble? ! Met him ..arrogant. .but his lack of being articulate makes him appear that way. He really is a dullard..but he's great athlete.
I agree.
Except for that hissy fit when a white teammate outplayed him.
May I say it was a trio, they called them Superman Batman and RODMAN. the best team to ever play the game of basketball.
Brad Murray absolutely
Superman, Batman and Joker (Rodman)
His name was RODZILLA 🤣🤣
Rodman can be wonder woman lol
Horace grant !!!!!!
Great to see MJ was by his side... the greatest dynasty ever assembled...
@Nightstar yet golden state folded after going 73 and 9. No way are they better than the 1995 96 Bulls.
@Nightstar No they were supposed to beat a motivated lebron, that's what separates the warriors from the bulls. Mike is a closer hints the reason his team has NEVER went to game 7 in the finals. When the bulls have you down mike takes the shovel and bashes you in the head hints the reason he LED 2 3peats and NEVER folded on the biggest stage.
@Nightstar They blew a 3-1 lead in the finals against an inferior team, MJs bulls were undefeated in the finals gtfoh.
Nightstar bulls would’ve shit on the bulls with the old school ball
thecrimedog the Celtics won 11
Such class. He appears to be a wonderful father and appreciative teammate. Just a wonderful acceptance speech
This man has a voice, unlimited and unending gratitude for his career!
Scottie was so underrated. He was a lebron james of that era. He could do it all. And was a lethal defender. Also went to the playoffs with the Bulls when Micheal wasn't there.
TheAstrius and better defender, not saying lebron isnt a good defender, scottie was just on another level when it comes to defense
wellfuckman Yeah, he would shut down 5-man offenses regularly
wellfuckman Serge Ibaka has claimed that LeBron is not as good a defender as people generally say.
wellfuckman Lebron is better, but Scottie is very underrated.
dgolijan again, that's very very debatable
Scottie Pippen is the most underrated and unselfish basketball player in my opinion. He would of complimented any team and player in any era.
He’s also a quitter. Don’t forget that
@@TL2354 he wasn't a quitter you fool. He was a competitor who was given the team and wanted the team. I guess we will find out in the last dance on how even Jordan said why would Phil do that to Scottie. Scottie was the mvp of the team and league. Winners want the ball. The only thing Scottie did wrong was give Phil the chance. Scottie should've pulled a Jordan. I'm just going to take the ball. Quitter is the last thing you should mention with pippen
Those bulls teams would murder any team today
+Scott Stuhr but can they murder the 95'-96' bulls?
+Scott Stuhr I don't think they could murder GSW today but they could eat them with curry.. XD
+Jerry Styler pshh
+Scott Stuhr yeah, today's NBA game is so soft now, just sayin
Scott Stuhr like frfr
2:38 Rodman chilling in da back with that iconic cowboy hat
Shady Boy you know whoever sat behind him wasn’t about to tell him to take it off 😂
Da boss chilling
Those two guys were such a huge part of so many our childhoods. The Bulls won their 1st ring my freshman year in high school and won their last my senior year of college. It really feels like you grew up with them in a weird way
An excellent speech.A humble man.A proud athlete.A good family man.Don't talk about his game,his accolades speak for themselves.Respect the man,love the game.He's an all time great and no youtube comment is ever going to change that.
Good family man his baby momma on relief..no
@@Jay-wj5hd And you are....???🤔🤔🤔🤨
Exactly.............
NO ONE
kept his cool as he was about to cry. Respect
Rodman was so underrated man
How? He's also HOF
This ain’t Rodman tho 😂😂😂😂
Not true because they way he played the bulls over the years. They new he was a special player.
@@TheSeans2009 I'm sure the bulls team knew how good Rodman was, but most Jordan fans still see the bulls dynasty as a one man wrecking crew.
Grant even more so.
"You are destined to be great at whatever you choose to do in life and I will be there to love you" - that's probably the greatest line I ever heard a dad say to his kids. And their reaction at 03:48 is just priceless.
Pippen was so smooth in the air before his dunks, and such a humble person!
This speech was great. I know Jordan said he wanted his speech how he wanted it, but this is how you do it. Be humble and most importantly be grateful. Don't just tell people off and call people out. Scottie Pippen is a legend and a true gentleman of the game.
alexxxandder I don't think Jordan was bragging too much... it's just his competitive nature. He was thanking the people who motivated him to become the GOAT. It's understandable. I would be surprised if he made a speech like Pippen. It won't be very "Jordan" to me
***** calm down. Know much more than you
***** Okay... listen to Lebron's Game 5 post game conference... "I am the best player in the world"... I don't recall Jordan saying that in his Hall of Fame speech...
Do you even know Jordan? and how competitive he is?
alexxxandder Jordan earned the right to say whatever he wanted to say. If anyone has ever earned it. Jordan did and you and everyone reading here knows it.
+Kelvin Thomas No one said he didn't earn the right to say what he said. What people are saying is that he wasn't very gracious. Just because he's MJ doesn't mean that everything he does is fantastic and the sun shines out of his ass. By the logic of him earning the right to say what he wants because he is the best, Bill Gates has earned the right to say what he wants about everyone who makes money because he is the richest, but it doesn't mean he does that. "Even you and everyone reading here" knows that Jordan used his speech to call people out and tell people off . He has to win every battle even if its not there. "but it's his competitive nature, thats why he's the GOAT...". Taking the high road is letting things go but he clearly hasn't done that. Do a little google search and see numerous articles saying the speech wasn't very gracious - it doesn't mean he hasn't earned the right.
"Almost three and a half years after his Hall of Fame induction speech was widely criticized for being arrogant and petty, Bulls great Michael Jordan says he has no regrets.
"I was really explaining to people about my competitive nature," Jordan tells Ahmad Rashad in an NBA TV " - Chicago Tribune
The GREATEST defensive player the NBA has ever seen. My favorite player. Never going to be another one like him. Thank you Scottie
Fuck off with that shit. Greatest defensive player lol. If he's that great why doesn't he have at least 1 DPOY to his name ? Scottie is a good player not great. You guys overrate him too much. Greatest lol SMDH.
thank you for what you loser. what did his defense ever do for you personally? nothing!
Ari Stamas
Oh my bad. I forgot with people these days, you have to agree with they like and the opinion they have. So tell me who I should like and why
never said who u should like. i am just stating why should you thank him? the hell did he ever do for you?
Okay simple explanation. I'm a Bulls fan. Always have been. Grew up watching the Bulls and Pippen was and still is my favorite player. So I thank him for being the player he was. Somebody doesn't have to do something for somebody else to receive a thank you. That's part of the problem with most people today. Always looking for someone to do something for them
What pisses me off in HoF evens is that damned microphone. Have you guys noticed that every player before he begins to talk, tries to adjust the mic higher. I mean, who is so ignorant in HoF organisation to not understand that 99% of HoF will be at least 6'6, and 80% of them will have back problems to stand half bent to talk to mic. Every time I watch these events I feel every players pain when they are trying to adjust the mic and keep doing it while talking :D I mean, FFS, this is 21st century, bring them height adjustable mics :D
+muziqaz LOL This guy angry at the adjustable mic. Too true though man.
The man has a point.
They have a house engineer if they just stood up and talked regularly the engineer would be able to adjust the input
Solution?
Wireless mic in the lapel.
Rob Johnson is right (I know this from years ago idgaf). They don’t need to adjust it that type of mic they can just stand up straight and talk forward
Not a word about himself. What a humble man.
Unbelievable player. Underrated. He wasn’t a side kick, he was a star. Elite defender and intelligent offensive player as well.
did anyone got here after MJ speech?
This was a very humble speech and it came from the heart....straight from the heart. It was his day, but he still opened up with thanking Michael!
He was one of the most underrated players of all time, and yet he was one of the greatest ever. He was most known for his lethal defense, and he was a very critical part of all 6 Chicago championships. He could do everything and anything on the court, and completely deserves his spot in the Hall of Fame.
How you figure he was underrated one of the best defense players to play the game top 50 made the first dream team he couldn't of one those rings without Jordan an Jordan wouldn't of won those rings without pippen
many years later, pippen changed his mind....
It's Sad tbh
Amazing quote at the end Scottie: "For all of this I say, thank God, and thank you."
Notice JORDAN had to be first up the steps. Competitive.
He just refuses to lose. lol
XDDDD
LOL @ this comment
No,..Scotty told him to go first !!!
Hilarious
Scottie is an incredible, humble man and one of the greatest players of all time. All the best to you, Mr. Pippen. Cheers and thanks for the memories. Peace.
Simply put: A class act. Scottie is easily one of the greatest competitors in NBA history. The GOAT has acknowledged how he'd never have accomplished such greatness without Scottie. Jordan also acknowledged Scottie's great value to the entire team. What a wonderful story! From Hamburg, Arkansas to the Hall of Fame. God bless, indeed. Thank you, Scottie. It was a privilege to watch you play.
What a humble guy and one of the greatest players ever, number 33 will never be forgotten.
Humble as always. He kept the speech shirt and yet captured everyone. No ego.
Classy and humble speech.
Amazing and ideal teammate.
Unselfish.
Saw his role and perfected it.
I'll never forget that dunk Pippen put on Ewing. A truly brilliant basketball player, and the best compliment I can pay him is that Michael Jordan doesn't win any of those 6 rings if he wasn't playing with Pip, and vice versa obviously. Then Rodman became the final piece of the jigsaw for 1996 to 1998. Keep watching the videos of those Bulls, people. Because you'll never see another team like them. Ever.
+Luke C I absolutely agree with what you say. One of my good highschool friends would wear 33 every single day out on the court. I was a Lakers and Magic fan since early on and I didn't appreciate Scottie Pippen until their second championship season where - after the stinging disappointment of the Lakers loss in 1991 - I began to follow the Bulls and watch their games in anticipation. I still am a Lakers fan but I enjjoyed the game of basketball so much more in the 90's thanks to the Bulls dynasty and the magic of Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and crew. Good times. =)
All My People Right Here Right Now wait Mike wouldn't have won any rings fuck that mj is the Mf truth smh
You make an interesting point. I don’t think MJ would have won 6 without Scottie but he would have won more than Scottie had they been on separate teams. But nonetheless it does not matter, because they played and dominated together.
Parka Monkey they were ok.
Pippen, is my favorite player of all time.
@@Jay-wj5hd he wouldn't know cuz he's idolizing an amazing basketball player that is being inducted into the hall of fame for being one of the best to ever do it.
mine too
Yes sir
@@Jay-wj5hd why you feel like a loser? Try to be someone better... Scottie is an Hall of Fame player, how about yourself?
same here 🤚🤚 my fav player
Pippen: total class ....saw The Last Dance....i feel for Scottie. Good man, great player. Hope you live in peace forever
Miss old school basketball 🏀 !!! I truly appreciate all those guys !!!
It was nice seeing Scottie Pippen being introduced by his teammate Michael Jordan. The presence of those two standing up there was amazing. I was simply still envisioning those two in their iconic Bulls uniforms taking care of business only the way those two were able to do - night in and night out. Thanks again Scottie and to you too Michael.
Great to hear such a humble heart thanking and asking them to stand such as coaches and team players to be recognized and most importantly thanking God and everyone that supported him...
MJ was exceptional but so much more to learn from Scottie Pippen...Last dance was an eye opening on individuals characters.
Hats off Scottie!!!
"I will cherish our relationship forever...unless I've got a book and a whisky to promote"
LMAOOO
Big Fax😂😂😂. I came back just to watch this. Just like you.
Wow, I’ve always known Scottie was an underrated player. Probably best non center defender of all time. But a true testament to his greatness after his career ended, the GOAT himself comes out to represent him at his side during HIS own installation. I’m grateful. Jordan actually can be humble too. He’s said openly and many times he could never have won without Scottie. Never. It’s beautiful.
If MJ is considered to be the best player, Scottie can be considered as the best teammate of all time
My childhood-basketball-hero! And the best duo ever to step on a basketball court right there! Damn, how i miss those 90s Bulls..- 33&23 forever:)!
😰
Scottie Pippen indeed is one of the very best Basketball Player of ALL TIME. I wish I could meet the man in person.
When he came back with an injury in the finals and the way he said in the interview for the last dance ''I was the decoy at that game'' and then laughs, prove what a great personality he had and what a great player he was.
I like his easy laugh... it's cool.
Sad to see the state of Jordan's and Pippen's relationship now.
Thats scotty before the book and all the craziness, this is the scotty i retain in my memory.
Translation, you like living in fantasy and hearing what you want to hear as opposed to what it really is. Typical delusional mindset.
Great speech Scottie. You were humble and appreciative and my 2nd favorite player of all time....right behind MJ. Thanks for all of the great memories.
All i can say i lived through those memories with Michael and Scottie Those were the best years of my life to watch them in person. Those were the best players of all time. They wanted to play the game, they play when they are hurt or sick. Now these days they are scared to do anything with the game of basketball. They played there heart out. Thank you Michael and Scottie.
Wonderful speech. Pippen tried to hold back the tears. I love their tandem!
You will always be my Childhood Basketball Hero. Thankyou very much for making me fall in love with Basketball every single day
I love the fact that Scotty has always remained humble, great player. He and MJ were the best combo in NBA history.
He is the only guy who can guard MJ.
Joe Dumars played the best defense against MJ
Pippen was good but even he couldn't guard MJ!!!
skalawitz Rodman could guard anyone, any position
No one can guard mj
Respectfully guard MJ** let's go with that. Because no one truly could stop him all together
One of my favourites. Most under-appreciated, underrated and under-paid superstar of all time. He was a superstar, no doubt. A top 5 player in the league every year he was on the Bulls, and he led the Bulls to the playoffs without Michael in ‘94. He’s so humble and polite too, shown perfectly in this video. The Bulls don’t win any of those chips without Scottie, he was the Batman to Jordan’s Batman.
he's neither underrated not underpaid
@@alexandersmagin4769 he was extremely, do your research before talking
@@realdragon7788 no he wasn’t. You google before talking
@@alexandersmagin4769
18 Million ober 8 years?? Not underpaid
"With a ranking of 2nd on the Bulls in scoring, rebounds, minutes played, and first in assists and steals, it is no surprise that people did not like hearing about Scottie’s 6th place in salary on the team. Overall, this contract put him at 122nd highest paid in the league"

@@realdragon7788 he was making over $2 million a year in the late 80’s - mid 90’s. Aha… That’s what u call “underpaid”… haha lol?
Made me shed a tear seeing MJ and Scottie together again
Scottie needs to see this…
Scottie is the most humble superstar athlete we will ever see in this life time. Extremely genuine and soft spoken. If you can't remember how good he was then you need to just watch 1 or 2 of his highlight reels and you will see just how amazing of a player he actually was. There will never be a better duo than MJ and Pippen.
Pippen's dad pull out game was weak. 11 kids damn
he thought he could hold it. played it, she didn't notice, kept it rolling. His pullout game is nicer than it looks. If he wasn't married he would be the 6th man on maury.
LMAO.. No you didnt say that..LOL
but his "pull in" game was strong
Jordy Buscemi he prOlly was shOotinG fOr an O-skuhball (basketball) player. 😂
ahahahaha lmfao
The Last Dance brought me here, good memories.
Mrs Pippen went to hundreds of schools for a cpl decades speaking to kids about sports and academics. God bless the Pippen family. She was a very kind and special lady.
such powerful words. I and my son Ryan were on our boat and met you on the Chicago river, you and your friend were riding wave runners. You were so kind to sign a autograph for my son Ryan it meant the world to him. Thank you Scottie Pippen.
Pippen is one of the most amazing stories in basketball history.Didnt go to college on a basketball scholarship( Central Arkansas at that)Had a late growth spurt.Worked his ass off and is in the Hall of Fame.Amazing!!
His voice and his family.... this guy is so cool
it was Scottie's HOF but he used the whole time to thank others, that too with so much respect and acknowledgment.
one the greatest but also one of the kindest.
"It was a great ride .." his heart felt broken inside 💔
8:06
Im so thankful that i was able to witness the era of Pippen, MJ and the Bulls, basketball was so great and exciting back then...
Scottie is a ride or die kinda friend everyone wishes they have. Such a solid guy.
0:16 Instead of "Where's Waldo?" It's more like *Where's Rodman?* Hahaha
haahah
LOL!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lol
I like Scott's humility and how humble he looks, plus that deep voice.
One of my favourite NBA Players of all Time..Great team player and a Master of Defense!
Man i wish i can rewind time amd go back to the 90's watching this guy amd his friends
Scottie has that different, rare vibe and i just like that about him so much.
It is very easy to find Rodman in that crowd
Scottie always brings the name "Gladiator" to mind whenever I see or think of him.
He went gladly into the fray every damned time and did his job ever so well
I really hope Scottie and Michael can rebuild their relationship. It’s a shame that they’re at odds with one another now. Their legacy as a duo is formidable and unmatched.
A true legend..........i am 43 years old an loved the way he played the game............where has the time gone?
damn he came close a few times, but he managed not to break down or even let out a single tear. I felt that at the end. The memories of an entire career all rushing in through his mind in that one sentence.
Forget Morgan Freeman! Scottie Pippen is the G.O.A.T
“I will cherish our relationship forever” just hurts now
Exactly
What happened??

This is such a classy speech. I just rewatched Jordan’s and he revisits pretty much every beef he ever had. Scottie is gracious here and thanks everyone, even the Bulls organisation, without bringing up any bad blood.
Scottie so humble. The best
All these Bulls superstars ain’t afraid to cry, they really feel basketball deep down in their soul. It’s incredible to watch.
I cried watching this. Pip man. Wow. Pure class pure legend
Not many players can wrestle their way through a match with a back injury during a championship finals game 6 and produce a performance like scottie pippen did that day in Utah.
The 90’s bulls is the greatest NBA team of all time period. 💯🏀

“I will cherish his friendship forever.” Fast forward to December 31, 2021…
Such a polished speech with lots of poise on Pippen's part. A real class act. Thank you for everything you have done for the NBA and the world of basketball, Scottie. Love you!
