Scottie Pippen caused a stir with his remarks regarding the GOAT argument in a recent interview. The Chicago Bulls veteran contended that he had a place in the discussion since he had outperformed LeBron James in terms of team success. Gilbert Arenas, of course, didn’t agree and had some harsh things to say about the six-time winner.

Agent Zero said why he doesn’t share Scottie’s viewpoint and talked about Pippen’s sexy interpretation of the most recent “Gil’s Arena” episode.
Arenas argued: “If you want to know who’s the better player, just say who’s the better player,” “Who had more team success? Obviously the person with six rings. If you ask Robert Horry who had more team success, you or Michael Jordan, he’s going to say him ’cause he got seven rings.”
“He has no accolades as the number one option,” “He has no rings, he has no nothing else… Number one option has different responsibilities. Scottie is a glorified second option.”

Hibachi thought Pippen was deliberately skewing the discussion by focusing his query on team performance. As the team’s backup, Scottie did, after all, win his titles.
