First of all, I would love to see scottie play ball again, but I dont think its a good idea for scottie to come back in the NBA.I think Scottie is just going through a phase right now in his life where he misses the game. He probably thinks that he's only been retired for a little while and he can still come back and be a great player. But the reality is that the game of basketball has changed a lot over the last 3-4 years, I dont think he is athletic enough to play against some of the young players today. He has to realize that his time in the NBA is over, and that he has to move on in life. Its really hard to give up one of your loves in life, but life goes on.
Anyways, even if he does come back to play in the NBA it will only be for the rest of the season, and he wont see much playing time. If he does come back there will definetley be a sold out crowd every night that hopes to see Scottie Pippen step on the court for one last time.
If he is really dying to come back though I think his best bet would be the ABA.No matter what happens Scottie Pippens legacy as a player will never be ruined.

Personally, I think it's a bad idea.
When he retired, he retired for a reason: He's getting older and he's lost a step or 4. Unless he has discovered the fountain of youth (doubtful), he should continue to enjoy his retirement.
I think Scottie may feel the need to show he can win a championship without Michael. He has 6 rings, nobody can take that away from him.
If he does return, he is running the risk of looking really bad, and with his history of declining or missing clutch shots he does not need that as part of his legacy as well.

Scottie Pippen sucks now. He sucked with the Blazers when he though he could guard Kobe. Then Kobe crossed him and threw the lob to Shaq for the jam. Plus Pippen has no definition on his arms anymore. No Pippen...stay retired.

he doesnt want to come back to the nba, he just wants the money, because i think he is being sued by some airplane company because scottie owes them money for a small plane he bought or something like that. scottie is washed up and wont due jack in the nba maybe except being dunked on or crossed over.

NO he is 42 years old! how long would he stay in the nba?? like two more seasons? i personally think that it is a horrible idea we have all already seen him play when he was good and he surely isnt any better than wht he was when he was in the nba last time

If he could seriously help my team down the stretch I would sign him to a deal for the rest of the year. Its a short time so he wont be getting tired or injured.

If Pippen can still play at a NBA level, then why should he not come back. If he can still contribute to a team and help them win, then I would welcome him back.

If he wants to embarrass himself, I'm all for it.
I never liked him, and I probably never will.
