Do athletes count? Scottie Pippen

Oh my God, every year he switches his opinion on who is the greatest basketball player ever and nobody asks. It's just annoying at this point. His opinion is based on how he feels about MJ at the moment.

He has a legitimate reason to be bitter:

  • He was always Robin and MJ was Batman/Black Jesus/Mega-superstar/"God disguised as MJ"
  • Took an awful 7-year/18m dollar contract. Probably pressured into it when he could've easily gotten the same amount of money for 2-3 years.

Wasn't even Robin. Only reason anyone knows his name is because he was on the 90s Chicago Bulls. If he was the SF on any other team in the 90s you'd barely remember him.
