PIPPEN of the night

[PIP]

Okay, since LBJ usually goes into battle without knowing who's going to join him, I think it's only right we have a: "PIPPEN of the night" award..

If you have no idea what "PIPPEN of the night" means, please don't even participate.. If you have no idea who "PIPPEN" was, please aim a rifle at your chin...

After every Cavs game, we will have the "PIPPEN of the night".. This player will be recognized as LBJ's right hand man and partner in crime for that particular game...

The only player that is not available for nominations is LeBron James..

The "PIPPEN of the night" player will be recognized for being the "other" most impactful player in that particular game..

So, after the game, just put down the opposing team's name, and then pick your "PIPPEN of the night"

DJ for the knicks

I'm predicting Drew picks up another "Pippen" tomorrow vs. Portland. He had 23 and 14 against them the last time we played the Blazers.

 

[Smooth]

How often will you update the rankings, PIP?

Just curious...

 

[imahustla]

Hope he does it every night. If not, I can fill in for him. I loved this idea of his the minute he suggested it.

So far it's Gooden with 3, Hughes with 2, and Sasha/DJ each with 1.

 

[PIP]

I'm in the process of taking care of it, fellas..

Give me a hot minute...

I have a dumb question Pip. How is Pippen of the Night different from the 2nd best player in the Player of the Game thread? I mean, Bron is POTG like 90% of the time, and whoever's 2nd is pretty much the Pippen right? :chuckles:

 

[PIP]

Exactly... The player of the game is always Bron..

I just thought I would jazz it up a bit, Kyp..

Plus, several times newbies don't understand the scoring system of (3,2,1) for the POTG.. This provides an alternative..

PIPPEN of the night obviously showcases the next best player on that paticular night...

Smooth, CA, --

I updated it...
