Was Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen the greatest duo of all time?
Well, it is difficult to say of course. Some would say it was Kareem and Magic or Kareem and The Big O when they played together. Some would cite a few Celtic players. Some would cite Kobe and Shaq; and still there are others. They are one of the greatest duos of all time but the greatest----hard to say...in my opinion.
Although Jordan and Pippen were good, I would have to go with Bob Cousey and Bill Russell of the Celtics who brought so many championships to Beantown.
Your right Paul, you cant go wrong with Bill Russell, don't think 9 straight Championships will ever be matched or beaten.
I don't know, I've never heard of them. What did they sing, did they ever make the charts?
Yup includes these two tandems in the top three. Kareem - Magic Johnson and Shaq -Bryant
With Jordan scoring every which way and doing just about everything else and Pippen playing the best perimeter defense you will ever witness. They won six titles together for God's sake. I think they are by far the "BEST" duo of all time, who can argue with that?
The Championships are there to say that Jordan & Pippen are the greatest duo.
I know people will immediately jump to Cousy and Russell because of the championships but you have to remember the competition wasn't nearly as thick as it is these days. The league was much smaller. Jordan and Pippen had to contend with Isaiah Thomas, then Magic Johnson, Clyde Drexler, Charles Barkley, Karl Malone and John Stockton. Never mind the constant threats of Patrick Ewing and Reggie Miller in the Eastern Conference. To me that is why Jordan and Pippen deserve the honor.

Through his 12 years playing with the Chicago Buls, Pippen spent much of his time playing under the shadow of Michael Jordan. For the 2 years he didn't play with Jordan, Pippen had the highest numbers of his career, received All-Star Game MVP Honors, and lead the league in steals.To read more,...

With the previous and recent speculation that Lebron James is overrated I figured, Let me ask THE question. "King James" as some call him was coined as the "next Jordan" even before entering the league, but after several failed attempts to win an NBA championship as the...
