It's not quite the impact of Michael Jordan's famous return to basketball in 1995, but Scottie Pippen is seriously considering a comeback and hopes to play for a contending team in this season's playoffs.

Pippen, who turned 41 on Sept. 25, says he's in better condition and health than at any time in the last five years. And in the Eastern Conference, his veteran presence could change the balance of power and be a major influence in the playoffs.

Cool, that Pippen may be possibly coming back. One of the greatest Bulls of all time, I though I would post this on the board...

Man, I don't know. 41 years old?

I know he says he was in better shape than in his last season, but that's not really saying much. At all.

I guess if he's cheap it wouldn't hurt, as long as he doesn't expect much playing time.

BY watching him in the All Star shoot-out thing, he appears to be in shape but that doesnt mean he can still play.

He didnt do anything his final years in the NBA, I dont see it working out well this time around either

Real reason for Pippens comeback, is debt ?

Quote:

It was reported Thursday that the Missouri Court of Appeals has upheld a ruling from last year in St. Louis County in which a judge agreed that Pippen owed U.S. Bank about $5.021 million in principal, interest and attorney fees from a dispute over a private jet and company Pippen once owned.

Makes perfect sense...

But you would have thought with all that money he saved never giving tips, he would never have to worry about money.
