In 13 seasons as a Chicago Bull, Michael Jordan won six championships while hoisting five NBA MVP’s and six NBA Finals MVP trophies. Over his 15-year career, Jordan was a 14-time All-Star, 11-time All-NBA, 9-time All-Defensive, 10-time scoring champion, and the fifth all-time leading scorer in league history among a million other amazing things.
Scottie Pippen won those same six championships alongside Jordan. Over his 17-year career, Pippen was named a 7-time All-Star, 7-time All-NBA, and 10-time All-Defensive Team.
Both Jordan and Pippen were named to the original ‘NBA at 50’ list, which was made up of the 50 greatest players in league history as of Oct. 29, 1996.
