Scottie Pippen has long been known (mostly deservedly, as great a player as he was) as the Robin to Michael Jordan's Batman. However, when Jordan retired after the Bulls' first threepeat, Pippen took over and had an MVP-caliber season, leading the team to a 50-win season and losing on a controversial foul in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals to the New York Knicks. Let's say that that foul isn't called, Pippen leads the Bulls to the title, winning Finals MVP in the process, all without His Airness. What happens next? Do the Bulls still rebuild the team the year after? Does Jordan still come back to the Bulls in 95? How does this change Pippen's place in basketball history? Curious for everyone's thoughts.
