Pippen and Michael Jordan helped lead the Bulls to six NBA Championships.
They went a perfect 6-0 (and never needed a Game 7).
Many people reacted to Pippen's post.
@Cover3_mx: "You never needed a Game 7, Scottie. Your team handled business early … that’s a different kind of dominance. Respect."
@YZR_Fantasy: "Why is Scottie Pippen making AI images of himself with 6 rings and a computer when he is already Scottie Pippen, has 6 rings, and a computer"
@THERUNDOWN: "Scottie casually flexing 6 rings and zero Game 7s is legendary energy. "
@ThatDakari: "Generating an AI picture of yourself tweeting is so silly"
@s_handler37631: "This dude would have demolished in today’s game"
The Thunder had a historic season where they went 68-14 during the regular season.
They won 84 total games (which Pippen and the Bulls also did).
Via StatMuse: "Teams with 84+ wins to win a Championship:
— MJ Bulls
— MJ Bulls
— SGA Thunder
That's it."
