On Monday, Phoenix Suns ******* yst Eddie Johnson revisited a bold claim made by Scottie Pippen in January 2025. Appearing on an episode of the "PBD Podcast," Pippen argued that he is ahead of LeBron James from the standpoint of team success.
"I got six rings…You want individual accolades or you want championships? Because I didn't chase mine." [Timestamp – 12:47]
Reposting this quote on X, Johnson threw his support behind Pippen's claim while invoking the name of the other legendary six-time NBA champion from Chicago.
"Why shouldn't Scottie not claim he is the GOAT. He's 6-0 too and that seems to be the only fight left against LBJ. MJ fans are not happy today."
Among the three all-time greats he mentioned in his post, Johnson played against Jordan and Pippen many times in his own NBA career, which began in 1981 and lasted till 1999. During that time, Johnson witnessed Jordan and Pippen winning six NBA ******* les in Chicago.
