Colin Cowherd Says MJ’s Legacy is Nothing Without Jackson, Pippen

Colin Cowherd has a brand new sizzling take that Sports Twitter is NOT reacting effectively to in anyway — and it entails Michael Jordan … not likely being all that nice with out some key items.

The FS1 broadcaster jumped on his personal podcast community, The Volume, this week to speak concerning the NBA G.O.A.T. … arguing that MJ’s legacy and success are largely tied to 2 particular dudes that helped him obtain the standing he enjoys — Phil Jackson and Scottie Pippen.

It would not sound like that wild of an opinion, however the way in which CC places it is a bit harsher and cold-blooded, in his typical matter-of-fact fashion. Here’s how he worded issues … “So, he tried baseball. He failed. He tried ownership, he was awful. He tried the Wizards, it bombed.”

Cowherd provides, “Everybody understand, take out Scottie Pippen and Phil Jackson — this whole Michael Jordan mythology is sort of just that.” He goes on to say MJ has all the time been a little bit of a egocentric participant and man, and that he’d by no means been nice at constructing neighborhood.

The bigger context of his convo right here has to do with studies that MJ will promote his majority possession stake within the Hornets.

As for a way the Internet is taking this POV … not nice. Bird app customers are kinda crapping on him with memes and jokes, suggesting that Colin’s downplaying Mike’s particular person greatness.
