Scottie Pippen: is he a still a "top 50" of all time player?

back when the nba started it was soft and most of the guys from back then wouldnt be able to play at todays level, so i'd say pippen will be a top 50 player for a long time to come and others will start dropping off that list first

They were the star players from that era, so they deserve their place. Can't compare different eras, of course they wouldn't be able to compete today, BECAUSE THEY"RE FROM THE 50's, lol.

looks like i actually forgot 3 indiana players, if you count chris mullins, as well.

I understand why you want to appease Spice because Miller def deserves to be there, but I wouldn't include guys like JO who of course have been GREAT in their prime if their prime was as short as JO's and if anything besides their prime sucked donkey balls like in JO's case. His first 4 or so years he has been irrelevant, and he also fell off way too early. Despite not being old as shit, he became a complete bum a few years ago. His field goal % has always been suspect for a big who doesn't really shoot 3s. Nevertheless, there have been a few great years for him, but Top 100 of all-time: no.
As for the Top 50 list, they rather have to extend that shit. You can't just drop niggas off. Also technically, of course players of the 90's and 00's shit on players from the 50's or 60's, especially physically - but still, those guys were owning their respective eras so you gotta cut them some slack.
IRAN iz Gangsta!:
why not?
i never understood why people under rated pippen all his career. Just cuz he played under michael jordan, doesnt mean he wasn't good. There have not been any players close to him since he left and before he left, why would he get dropped??

LOL why do you even comment on Basketball?
50 best players...when new ones come about...somebody will need to get dropped. Look at the ones Hack mentioned...if you think Pippen is ahead of any of those guys....you are complete idiot. LeBron and Wade still have a way to go in their career. But unless they die tomorrow...they will be far ahead of Pippen as well.
