Pippen listed as a finalist to join MJ in the Hall of Fame
Scottie Pippen has been named as a finalist of players, coaches and teams to possibly be put in the NBA Hall of Fame. Pippen won six championships, a regular season MVP, was a member of the 1992 Dream Team, was named to multiple NBA All Teams and All Star games, and was on the All Defense team for eight consecutive years.
If Pippen is added to the HOF, he will join Michael Jordan, who together made the Bulls a dominant team in the 90’s winning the six championships in two three-peats. They were a tag team duo only seen once or twice of the same caliber before them in the NBA. When ESPN was doing their Mount Rushmore’sf individual state’s great athletes, Pippen was right next to Jordan on most mountains.
Rose, the first Bull’s All Star since Jordan
Chicago Bulls fans finally have someone to be proud of. Derrick Rose was named as a reserve for the NBA All Star game.
In his 2nd year in the NBA, Rose is the first Chicago Bull to be named to the team since Michael Jordan in 1998. In case you can not do math, it has been 12 YEARS.
The 2000-2009 Running of the Chicago Bulls
The decade began with the Chicago Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf trying to replace the championship roster he had in the 90’s. We know the story. Michael Jordan retired, then un-retired for a year or two for a season with the Washington Wizzards . Phil Jackson left for the Los Angeles Lakers, where he three-peats to start the decade. Scottie Pippen was traded to the Houston Rockets and Dennis Rodman went completely over the edge.

As most of you know, Michael Jordan will be inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame tomorrow. We have all known since Jordan’s first retirement that this day would come, we just didn’t know it would take this long. Its about time though! Jordan to many is the greatest player of all time. He led our team to 6 NBA Titles, and we couldn’t thank him more. MJ is the reason Chicago is the basketball city it has become. Michael Jordan, thanks for all the memories!
In honor of Michael Jordan’s Hall of Fame introduction, here are some of his top moments:
