    ewing is absolutly a top 50 player, I do not think pippen was. But Ewing was a great player, so he didn't won a ring, alot of great players didn't Barkley didn't and he was awesome

    p.s.

    Snotty Pippen should personally call Dominique Wilkins and beg his forgiveness for stealing his spot.

    Have to pick Pippen even without any objective reasons! :p

    Ewing should be considered one of the elite centers in history. The Knicks had been a contender throughout and they were built around him. And look how it has been after he left.

    Well I think we can ALL agree that if Ewing didn't tear his Achilles tendon in 1999, they would've blown the Spurs away.

    I believe at the time NY fans thought they would've lost in the second round with Ewing healthy...

    Ewing was great and he deserves to be a top 50 player, but those six rings really hurt him in this particular thread. Scottie was/is no MJ, but he put up numbers close to O. Robertson in the year MJ was swinging the bat. No they didn't win a title:D , but I believe that Pippen was atleast as good as Clyde who deserved the ranking of top 50 as well.
