Famous basketball player publishes his autobiography "Unguarded" in which he slams Michael Jordan and his thoughts in "The last dance"
Scottie Pippen, a former teammate of Michael Jordan in the Chicago Bulls who won six NBA championship rings in nine seasons, has decided to tell his version of events and what that time was like in the Illinois franchise with the best player of all time.
Pippen, one of the best forwards in history, has always lived in the shadow of 'Air Highness'. It seems that he has tired of the role of Jordan's eternal henchman and has decided to tell it in a book that will be released at the end of the year.

"Without Pippen, there would be no championships. And much less six. There would be no documentary ('The last dance'), and there would be no Michael Jordan as we know him. "
The Arkansas forward continues with his particular vision of the time and of the Bulls:
"In this work, Pippen reveals how angry he is to be labelled as Jordan's teammate and comments how he should have received more respect from the directors of the Bulls and the media".
Finally, in the preview of the book entitled 'Unguarded', that will come out on November 16, Pippen will tell "stories about what it was like to deal with Jordan on a day-to-day basis while he served as the real leader of the Bulls in the locker room."
