Scottie Pippen accused his former NBA coach Phil Jackson of being a racist on Monday in the latest of act of candor from the Basketball Hall of Famer.
While appearing on “The Dan Patrick” Show, Pippen was asked about recent comments he made to GQ, in which he said Jackson made a “racial move” by not giving him the last-second shot in a 1994 playoff game against the Knicks.

“By saying a racial move, then you’re calling Phil a racist,” Patrick asked Pippen. “I don’t got a problem with that,” Pippen replied, to which Patrick followed up, “Do you think Phil was or is (a racist)?”

“I wish Shaq would kick his ass.”
Gator, hearing Shaq just called Pippen saying, “Scottie why you doing that? You hurting yourself worse than that long term deal you signed.”
True Story
Yeah I remember when Jackson drew up that play for Mark Madsen to make the game winning shot against the Spurs..oh wait, that was Derek Fisher..I remember 0.4 like it was yesterday..or when Big Shot Rob made that game winning buzzer beater against the Kings
That would burn. He cost himself many many millions for that bonehead move.
Was that Chuck Daly’s idea?
Here is Scottie Pippen in 1994 admitting it was his own (childish) decision to take himself out. He didn’t like the play call.
By the way, Phil Jackson’s decision worked - as they won the game on that play.

Didn’t seem to bother him years ago when he played for Phil Jackson and was making $$$$ hand over fist winning those championships.

“If you don’t support Phil Jackson, then you ain’t black,” joe Biden
interesting . . . where’s THIS going to go . . .
Toni Kukoc was given - and made - the shot. Pippen petulantly sat on the bench. To play this card 27 years after the fact is pathetic.
He even won when he coached the Albany Poltroons of the CBA.
Pippen was advised even by the Bulls owner to not sign that long-term deal, but he was worried about getting hurt and wanted the security. It cost him millions in the long run. But he is not exactly a pauper either.
How cancelled do I have to be before I can start calling people like Pippen fags again?
I was fascinated to learn how poorly Pippen was paid during their hay day. He signed a long term deal as a newbie so he was like the 8th guy on the payroll when Da Bulls got rolling.
I don’t remember him getting hit in the head alot......brain damage would be the only way one could come up with Phil Jackson being racist.
Triangles are racist, doncha know.
“ Racists are people who are obsessed with race, make everything about race, and project their own maniacal racism onto all the people they hate.

What are Libtards for $100 thank you
So you think every NRA member is a thug?
He made over $100 million in the NBA.
Scottie hasn’t gotten over bankruptcy
Looks like his first born kid died recently. That’s probably a factor in his attitude.
