A title without Michael Jordan or $100 million? That was the intriguing question posed to six-time NBA champion Scottie Pippen. Without missing a beat, the 7-time All-Star—who won six titles alongside Jordan with the Chicago Bulls—was quick to respond. Would he have liked to claim a championship without his legendary teammate? After a subtle jab at LeBron James, Pippen revealed his take on the $100 million question.

During his appearance on the *Patrick Bet-David Podcast*, Pippen jokingly quipped, “Give me that $100 million.” When the conversation turned to the season where the Bulls finished with 47-48 wins, Pippen didn’t waver. “Oh, I would have taken that $100 million,” he added.

However, when asked to choose between $50 million or a championship ring, interestingly, he decided to go with the ring. “I don’t know. Maybe I’ll take the ring. It matters to be known as the best. It matters to be the best. It pays to be at the top,” he added.

This humorous exchange quickly caught attention, as in the same interview, he had placed himself above LeBron James. “My success as a team is more successful than LeBron’s, I got 6 rings,” he said.

When the host pressed Pippen to choose between himself and James from the perspective of an NBA owner, he had an even more intriguing response. “I don’t know, do you want individual accolades or do you want championships? ‘Cause I didn’t chase mine,” Pippen responded. What do you think? He also had a fascinating opinion when it came to Michael Jordan vs. LeBron James.

What does Scottie Pippen think about the GOAT Debate?

His initial opinion was that the two legends couldn’t be compared as they had different playing styles and roles within their respective teams. Moreover, he believed that neither was close to entering the GOAT debate.

Scottie Pippen says neither MJ nor LeBron is the GOAT. Do you agree with his take?

Have an interesting take?

Going back to the conversation of how many titles Pippen could have won, the host posed a string of intriguing questions. One of the most thought-provoking was, what if the Chicago Bulls legend had joined a different team, Atlanta Hawks. He would have teamed up with MJ’s rival Dominique Wilkins.

Without much hesitation, Pippen confidently responded, six. There were several shocking and candid revelations that Pippen made in the interview.
