What if Scottie Pippen was traded during Michael Jordan’s retirement? Would Jordan have come back? If he did would the Chicago Bulls have won three more championships?
This was nearly a reality, per George Karl and his forth coming tell-all book, “Furious George.” The book chronicles Karl’s well traveled days in basketball, a story which has already uncovered tales from the New York Knicks’ superstar, Carmelo Anthony, and former star, Kenyon Martin.
In the book, Karl speaks about a trade that wasn’t, but apparently was (confusing, I know). In an attempt to rebuild a Bulls franchise that just lost Michael Jordan to retirement, Jerry Krause (then Bulls GM) proposed a deal to the Seattle Supersonics. A deal which would have shifted the power in the NBA for a long, long time.
