Scottie Pippen

Do you remember that? I don't remember Vernon, but Vernon was one of the toughest guys. He's a very close friend of mine. And yeah, he was a tough guy. But I mean... That was a lot of guys played in the league and that, you know... I'm talking like street tough, like tough, tough. Yeah, I mean, but street tough can't go up in the stands. You know what I'm saying? I agree.

We still have to be professional. I fully agree. You know, but there are guys who've gotten out of order and out of hand, but, you know, the commissioner has always been able to take care of that and keep things in order. But I think now... the fans are so afraid that they can't even call a player out in any bad way that is looked at as a threat.

Yeah, I guess Oak could say he's one of the tough guys, but you know what? That era of guys kind of faded in the 90s, you know? The Oakleys, the Buck Williams, you know, Buddha, James Edward, who I played with. You know, guys that would just give hard fouls. Those were guys that were considered tough guys, guys that when you came in the lane... You're going to have to earn it.

Are you a New York Knicks fan? No, I'm just kidding. Who were you going to say? No, I'm just kidding. No, I – Listen, if you said Knicks, there's three names I think about.

No, they were all tough. Okay. They were all tough guys, but – New York thought that they were the toughest team on the block back in the 90s. That's in the early 90s.

Oh, you didn't see the one with Steve? I must have mispracticed that day. You're joking right now, right? Is that what you... It's like the code of keeping... No, my cat was sick.

Yeah, I do think he's going to go down as one of the great ones. I mean, from a statistical standpoint, it's just like I said, when I saw LeBron come in the game, these guys are going to dominate the game statistically because of how the rules have been being changed. Like, I mean... This guy can shoot a three-pointer whenever he get ready. It's ridiculous. That's the crazy part about it.

It's like you can't even contest his shot. We think that Steph Curry got the freedom to dribble and shoot the ball, but now you're talking about a guy that's 7'6", and with unbelievable range, just watching him all the night, step across half court, pull up a three. What was that all about?

You know, that's what we're going to be seeing in the next 10 years of the game is a lot more shooting from a lot bigger guys.

I don't expect that record to be broken.
