reno Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 http://www.nba.com/bulls/photos/pippen3_100406.jpg “As an individual player, it’s something I never could have dreamed,” Pippen said of entering basketball's Hall of Fame. “It’s not an accolade that you can just go out and achieve. You have to impress people by the way you play the game. I tried to play the game the right way my whole career, played to win, and tried to be the best.”http://www.nba.com/bulls/news/pippen_interview_100405.html Gotta love pippen, all class.
