Scottie Pippen had it all wrong when he recently compared LeBron James with Michael Jordan, said one former Chicago Bulls teammate.

“The irony to me is that LeBron is not Michael. LeBron is actually Scottie,” former Bull and current television analyst Steve Kerr said Monday on “The Waddle & Silvy Show” on ESPN 1000. “He’s so similar to Scottie in that defensively he was just a monster, could guard anybody, really more of a point forward than scoring guard. Scottie always loved to distribute the ball. That’s really where LeBron’s preference is.

“Phil Jackson used to call Scottie a ‘sometimes shooter.’ Sometimes they would go in, sometimes they wouldn’t. That’s how it is with LeBron. He’s a great talent and a great player but you can see his flaws as a basketball player. He doesn’t have an offensive game that he can rely on: no low-post game, no mid-range jump shot so when the game really gets tough he has a hard time finding easy baskets and getting himself going. That’s what Michael did in his sleep so that’s why the comparison is wrong.”

After James’ Heat beat the Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals, Pippen told ESPN Radio’s “Mike & Mike in the Morning” that while he believes Jordan is the greatest scorer in NBA history, James “may be the greatest player to ever play the game.”

After thriving against the Bulls, James struggled — especially in the fourth quarter — in the NBA Finals against the Dallas Mavericks, who won three straight games against the Heat to win the title on Sunday.
