Point well taken, David, however, either player allowed the opportunity
to play any position for the Bulls, IMHO, Jordan is superior to Pippen,
offensively and defensively. At any rate, as far as playing second
fiddle goes, the gap between Jordan and Pippen is much wider than that
between Bird and McHale.
