Uh oh....

MJ getting exposed for fabricated stat lines. Even supported by teammates like Pippen.

But a closer look at Jordan’s 1987-88 season reveals a substantial discrepancy between his home and road statistics, raising questions about the authenticity of his off-the-charts steals and blocks numbers that season — and shining a light on an era that seemed particularly vulnerable to the hidden hand of homer bias.

Considerable evidence — both statistical and corroborating video — suggests that Jordan’s Defensive Player of the Year award may not be as valid as we thought.

I am pretty sure after each match, every stat is double checked by other people, not just the guy setting the stat as it happens for our boxscores.
Of course Pippen would say this. He averaged 2 steals per game for his career, with peak 2,9 one season. Add Jordans 2,3 per game for his season, with peak 3,2 one season.
There's not enough possessions for them to get more steals. JUst looking at one random season they had 9,5 steals per game as a team, and enemies averaged 92 possesions per game.
Maybe Scottie is mad about some single game where it would say Jordan had 5 steals and Pippen 2 steals and Pippen believes he should've had 4 at least.
Then we can argue this : if you tip a ball and its going to end up out of bounds, like you poke it away but you dont control it. Someone else grabs it. Who stole it?
Pippen just wants attention, fuck him.

Scotties quote isn't related to the article specifically.

There's actual evidence to Jordan getting steals that weren't steals. A lot of them. Fabricated DPOY. Did you read it? Apparently not.

Pippen is the saltiest and most jealous dude.

He shouldn’t be.

He dated Madonna. He has a trouser snake.

MJ doesn’t have anything close to that.

You can’t win them all, MJ.
