Blazers Wizards @ 12-10-02 1st every time Jordan Vs. Pippen
While they each have a share of six NBA titles, Scottie Pippen can not now boast about something Michael Jordan did - winning their first head-to-head meetings. Player with the Chicago Bulls 1987-97 Pippen and Jordan were the backbone of a team that won six NBA championships. But Tuesday was the first time they faced each other in the NBA. Jordan scored 14 points and grabbed five rebounds on 6-of-10 shooting, while Pippen added seven rebounds and five assists. "His horses were ready andmy mules were sick, you take it on and move in with him, "Jordan said." We just did not play the type of game he played tonight and I wanted to play today evening. "" He is still the greatest, it was great, "Pippen said." Michael's presence in the game was still alive. It may not show on the scoreboard, but he can still get a lot of things on the court. "" I think we were playing unselfish ball, "Pippen said." Everyone is say to yourself: "What can I do to protect this team Can I make a jump?Shot score, rebound, eh? "The 19-point defeat was the worst of the season for the Wizards, which dragged by as many as 26 in the second half." It was hard, and I think we must recognize that we got our butt kicked, "said Hughes.
