Scottie Pippen - Unguarded - Az I igaz történetem

",The Last Dance was more about Michael Jordan than the Chicago Bulls. That's his story. This is mine though!"" - Scottie Pippen It is not for nothing that Scottie Pippen is considered one of the greatest NBA players ever. If it weren't for Pippen, there wouldn't be championship flags - especially not six - hanging from the ceiling of the United Center. The documentary series Last Dance would not have been completed. There would be no Michael Jordan, at least as we know it now. The Chicago Bulls teams of the 1990s, as we know them, would not have existed. How did a child growing up in modest circumstances in the small town of Hamburg, Arkansas, the youngest of twelve siblings, with two family tragedies behind him, become a highly regarded legend of the NBA? How did a scrawny teenager who couldn't get into any major college basketball program go from being the fifth pick in the 1987 NBA draft? And what is perhaps most impressive: how did Pippen put his ego aside (and renounce the exploitation of his boundless professional potential) in order for the Bulls to become the most dominant basketball dynasty of the past half century? In his book Unguarded, now available in Hungarian the six-time champion and two-time Olympic gold medalist finally opens up to the public: he expresses a strong and honest opinion about Michael Jordan, Phil Jackson and Dennis Rodman, among others. He explains how awkward it was for him to be labeled as Jordan's sidekick, and why he deserved more respect from Bulls management and the media.Pippen shares never-before-heard stories about some of the most famous games in league history, including the 1994 New York About the playoff game against the Knicks, in which he spent the last 1.8 seconds off the court by his own decision. It chronicles what life was like alongside Jordan, while Pippen himself served as the team's offensive engine and defensive leader.On the 30th anniversary of the Bulls' first title, Pippen finally gives millions of basketball fans what they've been longing for: unvarnished insight. into his life and reveals the role he played on one of the best and most popular basketball teams of all time."
