When asked to comment about Scottie Pippen’s position amidst all the chaos that ensued after Larsa’s and Marcus’ relationship was made public, he said, “Scottie Pippen’s one of the baddest dudes that have ever played. I love the dude. But he ain’t in the news no more. He’s still gonna do alright. He’s done alright. Her skill set is being a beautiful exotic-looking woman, but now you go into a locker room, and it’s 25, 30-year-old exotic-looking brothers. You gotta do something.”
