Yet, what you've said is not 100% accurate.
It's accurate.
Pip made cameo appearances for the Bulls. He was not hired at an official position until after Wade's comments. You have yet to disprove that.
Cameo appearances? Disprove what? Burden of proof says I need to prove your statement that wasn't even part of my statement? I'm really not sure what you're on about with this one. Pippen had official positions with the Bulls. But I guess when we look at his career stats, and find that he returned to the Bulls, those should not count, because they are suddenly not official, because you say so(calling them cameos.) Having an official Bulls analyst position is not official to you either. So basically, any position that Scottie Pippen had with the Bulls, was not official, unless it came after Wade made some comments. Gotcha. Seriously man, listen to yourself.
So let's recap the reality. The 100% accurate situation with Scottie Pippen.
This is Official, Bulls re-sign Scottie Pippen.
http://www.nba.com/bulls/news/pippen_030720.html June of 2003 to a TWO year contract.
Pippen Retires in 2004.
In 2005 The Bulls retire his Jersey.
He gets a job as a Bulls analyst.
In 2007, he puts himself on the market.
http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2767861 Fails, and doesn't get a job.
In 2008, he goes overseas to take an offer, plays a handful of games.
In 2009 he retires from professional basketball.
In 2010 he gets a job as a team ambassador. <- Only event that happened after Wade's comment of 'questioning' why Jordan and Pippen weren't with the organization.
Is this what Jordan told the media?
Jordan doesn't hold press conferences to address the media over things he says and does with players.
Like I said earlier, I don't remember MJ defending the Bulls organization against Wade. Regarding Pip, you even admitted earlier that he was broke, so I would think he'd be quick to defend JR. He needed a job.
Well, he went broke in 2011. At least I can't seem to find any resources that say otherwise. Searching for this stuff online is next to impossible. Especially anything with Wade and Jordan, because Wade was sponsored by Jordan, and Wade apologized about quite a few things he said, namely one about the WTC that dominates nearly every single search query that I throw at google. And Wade leaving Jordan shoes.
Wade is playing alongside superstars, while winning multiple championships.
Yeah, and? This makes him respected for his opinion, or respected for accomplishments? Because I sure as hell can't see how his opinion is taken highly in the league. Part of that also extends to many players in the NBA with the opinion that Wade and LeBron participated in player tampering, even if it was not an NBA rule at the time.
What has the Bulls organization done since the Dynasty?
Top 10 Win-Loss record in the NBA. Only 6 Teams have won a title since, which we compete with, among the other 24 teams that also try to win(which, means 7 teams have won if you count the 3 years prior to that total and we would be part of it, but that would include the Dynasty). Hey, you asked. But I guess we don't count anything, unless it happened after the "dynasty".
I answered your question, so here is my question.
What have the New York Knicks done since the Bulls "Dynasty"?
What about the Rockets, Clippers, Blazers, Bucks, and so on and so fourth?
His mission was accomplished.
Woj just wrote this article less than 24 hours ago and it's confirming what D-Wade stated years ago.
Not really. Even after searching for the last 20 minutes on DWade comments... Wade says a LOT of stupid shit.
