It looks like Scottie Pippen is angry with everyone following backlashes over his new memoir “Unguarded” that trashes NBA legend Michael Jordan.
Scottie Pippen was pissed off and had to trash reporter Pat Tomasulo of WGN-TV during a live television interview about his new book for asking too many questions about Michael Jordan. Pippen didn’t seem to understand why the reporter centered the interview around Michael Jordan instead of his book.
Scottie Pippen had probably forgotten that he centered his new memoir on Michael Jordan when he trashed him in the “Unguarded” memoir. Pat Tomasulo kept asking questions about Michael Jordan, and that pissed him off!
Via SportsCasting:
Tomasulo kept asking Pippen to talk about Jordan seven minutes into the interview, and the six-time champion got annoyed. Pippen was under the impression the discussion would be more about his book and career with the Bulls.
“You’re really making this a Michael interview,” Pippen said to Tomasulo. “I kind of gave in and thought maybe if I answered it with your first thing that you would maybe talk about the book, but this really shouldn’t be about Michael. My book is really about the story of the greatest basketball team of all time and not only that, the greatest era of basketball of all time, and I felt like that that was led by me, but the whole story of the great Bulls team is told around Michael Jordan. I didn’t know that in the early ’80s when I came there because that wasn’t the story that was being told.”
Pippen really can’t be mad about this because he went on a media tour to sell a book that degrades Michael Jordan, so of course, people are going to ask questions about that.
