\n Scottie Pippen says he\u2019s talked with Michael Jordan since \u201cThe Last Dance\u201d documentary aired in the spring and downplayed any rift between the retired Chicago Bulls stars.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy would I be offended by anything that happ<\/a>ened 30 years ago?\u201d Pippen said.<\/p>\n

Jordan widely praised Pippen in the documentary that chronicled the Bulls\u2019 dynasty in the 1990s as the best teammate he ever had \u2014 both players were elected to the Hall of Fame. But Jordan called out Pippen in the second episode for making a \u201cselfish\u201d decision to delay offseason surgery on a ruptured tendon in his ankle until after the start of the 1997-98 season. Jordan said in the documentary he didn\u2019t understand Pippen\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n

Jordan also took a vague shot at Pippen\u2019s struggles in Game<\/a> 7 of the Bulls\u2019 loss to the Pistons in the 1990 Eastern Conference final, which were due to a migraine.<\/p>\n

ESPN Radio\u2019s David Kaplan claimed in May that Pippen was \u201clivid\u201d and \u201cso angry\u201d over how he was portrayed. Several of Jordan\u2019s other teammates, most notably Horace Grant, were irate at Jordan over storylines in the documentary. Pippen, though, does not appear to be one of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t upset about it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The documentary also included Pippen\u2019s refusal to enter Game 3 of the 1994 Eastern Conference semifinals in the final seconds.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt didn\u2019t bother me at all,\u201d Pippen said. \u201cIt was an opportunity for our younger generation that hadn\u2019t seen or knew anything about basketball in the \u201990s.\u201d<\/p>\n

The series<\/a> aired over five consecutive Sunday nights in April and May and included never-before-seen footage from the 1997-98 season, one where the team chased its sixth championship in a span of eight years.<\/p>\n

The 54-year-old Pippen won six NBA championships with the Bulls, was a seven-time All-Star and won two Olympic gold medals. He\u2019s now an NBA analyst, primarily for the ESPN studio show \u201cThe Jump.\u201d<\/p>\n

He picked the Los Angeles Lakers as the favorite to emerge out of Florida the NBA champion.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you wanted to pick one, I\u2019d say whichever team LeBron James is on,\u201d Pippen said. \u201cThe fact that his experience, his ability to pull a team together, the ability to be dominant. He\u2019s the most dominant player in the game right now with Kevin Durant not being in the game. \u201d<\/p>\n

The documentary was a ratings winner when sports was on hiatus because of the coronavirus pandemic. ESPN and Nielsen said that the final two episodes of \u2019The Last Dance\u201d averaged 5.6 million viewers.<\/p>\n
