It has been some time since the feud between Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen started. However, the almost one-sided argument seems to be unending as fans constantly reignite the fire between the Chicago Bulls champions. Everyone found another excuse to lay it all up on MJ as his former partner joined forces with former teammates to share their experience of the “Bulls’ Golden Era” in the NBA. But which story is that?

While many Bulls fans believe that the “No Bulls Tour”, started by Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, and Luc Longley, is about decrying MJ’s ‘The Last Dance‘, it is far from the truth. Their former Bulls partner unveils that it is not about Michael Jordan, but the amount of money that Australian tours bring to Pippen.

Talking on Gimme the Hot Sauce podcast, Stacey King cleared the air with an explanation about the “No Bulls” tour. He said, “First of all, it’s not a haters tour. Because the Bulls are still big in Australia, and they pay a lot to come over there. Scottie made like a $100,000 going over there the first time.”

He further clarified on the rumors that it’s about the Netflix docuseries saying, “That’s clickbait.” He added, “It’s not about ‘let’s talk about Michael and let’s talk about the Last Dance’. What’s been said has been said.” The three-time NBA champion also said, “They’ll answer questions because it’s a Q&A and there probably will be some questions about what their relationship is with Michael Jordan. I’m sure they’re gonna have answers.”

The “No Bull” Tour is going really well as the three Chicago Bulls champions already observed huge crowds in Tasmania and Melbourne. They will next fly to Sydney to wrap up this year’s Australia tour. But why do people believe that the tour is about the Michael Jordan-Pippen feud?

The “No Bulls” Tour and Michael Jordan

Despite “The Last Dance” being released in 2020, Scottie has not seemed to get over it. Apparently, the fact that Michael Jordan was always given the highest pedestal and others were not, doesn’t seem to be digesting well with the other former Bulls.

In fact, Scottie’s continuous attack on MJ and his absence in the trio gives fans a reason to believe that it’s an “eye-opening” tour. Nevertheless, many do believe that the golden era of the Bulls was only possible because the team played dominatingly together.
