038: Are you counting on him, Charles_2

The Suns' games are just like that, the pace is so fast it doesn't give you a chance to catch your breath. The moment you score, their counterattack has already kicked off.

Pippen, not to be outdone, attacked Ceballos again, preparing to take it directly to the basket.

But the active Kevin Johnson slid to Pippen's side and managed to poke the ball away.

Pippen's solo play failed for the second time!

Although some groups claim Pippen was invincible and that Jordan won six championships just because he was carried by Pippen.

But the truth is, Pippen had quite a few weaknesses, ball handling being one of them.

He could deal from the top of the arc and pivot on the post for a backdoor cut, but if you really let him control the ball like a ball-dominant core, feeding shooters and hooking up inside or isolating him as the core player, that would be disastrous.

Pippen was a good distributor, but not a good dominator.
