"Michael Jordan is the biggest fraud in NBA History!": Former UNC player supports Scottie Pippen, calls out Bulls' GOAT

An old clip of Michael Jordan dishing out a no-look, behind-the-back pass to Scottie Pippen goes viral on social media.

Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen are arguably one of the greatest duos in NBA history. The Chicago Bulls pair shared the same locker room for slightly more than a decade (1987-1993, 1994-1998) and managed to lead the franchise to 6 championships in 8 years.

During their playing day, the Jordan-Pippen pairing was as overpowered as it could get, with the two dominating the league on a nightly basis.

Now, both the superstars assisted each other on numerous made buckets throughout the course of their careers. The video of one such assist has recently gone viral on social media.
