The latest saga in the Scottie Pippen-driven feud with Michael Jordan, Pippen has now released his new memoir, Unguarded, revealing a slew of controversies. The six-time NBA champion and former teammate of MJ continues to try to defame Jordan by calling him an ungratefully selfish player. He also goes into detail targeting Charles Barkley and Isiah Thomas. According to an excerpt from Pippen’s book, the former Chicago Bulls forward seems to be opening up old wounds writing, “I may go as far to say Mike ruined basketball. In the 80s on the playgrounds, you’d have everyone moving the ball around — passing to help the team. That stopped in the 90s. Kids wanted to be ‘Like Mike.’ Well, Mike didn’t want to pass — didn’t want to rebound, or defend the best player. He wanted everything done for h...

In the recent episode of The Old Man and the Three podcast, Alex Caruso revealed the real reason why he did not sign back with the Los Angeles Lakers. This offseason, Caruso signed a $36.9 million USD four-year contract with the Chicago Bulls, however, the guard wanted to confirm that it was not without hesitation. When the deal came in, Caruso went back to the Lakers to give them a chance to keep him for less. At the time, Caruso was willing to stay on the Lakers for $30 million USD over three years. The Lakers refused the offer, which led to Caruso joining the Bulls. Currently, Caruso is a major part of the team’s defense and the Bulls’ 7-3 start. In the interview, he confirmed to J.J. Redick, “I really didn’t hear much from any team — including the Lakers — leading up to [the start of f...

In Monday’s NBA game, the Denver Nuggets faced off against the Miami Heat in a home game. With just 2:39 left in the final quarter, the Nuggets were approaching a 113-96 win against the Heat, however, in a run-in with Markeiff Morris, the reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokic ended up in a scuffle that led to the ejection of both players. The situation saw Morris foul Jokic as he pulled up for a three. As Morris turns his back away him, Jokic pushes him into the ground as retaliation. After the game, LA Clippers Marcus Morris and Markieff’s twin took to Twitter to chime in about what happened. Marcus wrote, “Waited till bro turned his back smh. NOTE,” which instigated a heated exchange between himself and the Jokic brothers. Jokic’s brothers Strahinja and Nemanja then created their own Twitter acc...

Scottie Pippen continues to question Michael Jordan‘s NBA success. This time, Pippen is discrediting Jordan’s memorable 19977 NBA Finals “Flu Game.” In a recent SiriusXM interview, former Chicago Bulls continued to question Michael Jordan’s commitment to playing. When Pippen was asked about playing with a back injury during the 1998 NBA Finals against the Utah Jazz, he took the opportunity to share that he probably would not have played if the series went to Game 7 because of a herniated disc. That year, the Bulls won the series in six games. The conversation later segued into Jordan’s flu game, to which Pippen directly compared his back issue, “I don’t see many bad back games, but I do see flu games. Flu. Come on.” Pippen continued to pick at Jordan’s “Flu Game” and explained that he was ...

The NBA decided to change their official game ball supplier from Spalding to Wilson this offseason. Wilson was the official maker of the NBA basketball for the first 37 years of the league before Spalding took over for the next 37. As Spalding failed to renew their contract, Wilson takes over ball-making duties once again. Statistically speaking, the league is currently experiencing an overall shooting slump, with the lowest 3-point percentage recorded so far since the 1998-1999 season, at 34.2%. While a short offseason and new foul call interpretations have been subject to blame, some trainers, players, and analysts are now pointing towards the new Wilson ball as a possible issue. “Not to make an excuse about the ball, but it’s a different basketball. It doesn’t have the same touch/softne...

While Kyrie Irving may not be returning to the court to play for the Brooklyn Nets this season due to his vaccination status, it does not take him out of the running for the upcoming 2022 NBA All-Star Game. With the 71st NBA All-Star Game hosted at Rocket Morgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, fans might just have a chance at seeing Irving return to the basketball court, just not playing for the Nets. The NBA updated its All-Star voting process to allow all players on the roster to be placed on the ballot. If Irving is voted in, he still has a chance to play since the New York City mandate only bars him from playing at the Barclays Center or Madison Square Garden. So far, the Brooklyn Nets management have told Irving that he can rejoin the team once he is fully vaccinated and read to be “a full ...
