Unguarded

Scottie Pippen's book is a memoir revealing how he overcame two family tragedies and a lack of scouting to become one of the greatest basketball dynasties of all time. Scottie Pippen is clearly one of the NBA's greatest players and this book is a testament to that.

Without Scottie Pippen, the United Center wouldn't have six championship banners, and no Last Dance Netflix series.

How did a poor kid from Hamburg, Arkansas, who endured two family tragedies, become an NBA legend? How did a scrawny teen, overlooked by every major college basketball programme, become the fifth overall pick in the 1987 NBA Draft? How did Pippen set aside his ego (and limitless professional ceiling) to help the Bulls become the most dominant basketball dynasty of the last half-century?

In Unguarded, the six-time champion and two-time Olympian opens up about Michael Jordan, Phil Jackson, and Dennis Rodman. Pippen describes how he cringed at being called Jordan's sidekick and how he deserved more respect from Bulls management and the media.

In this book, Scottie Pippen reveals never-before-told stories about some of the most famous NBA games, including the 1994 playoff game against the Knicks. He discusses working with Jordan as the offense's facilitator and defense's anchor.

Scottie Pippen finally gives basketball fans an unvarnished look into his life and role on one of the greatest teams of all time.

This book has a ton of relations and relevance for those looking at sport management. For one, it came as a response to the criticisms levied upon him by Michael Jordan in Last Dance Netflix series. That is, in essence, public relations.
