Elgee had this profile on him and since then hes become Nba champ him and Kawhi had the 2nd most points by a duo in a title run actually more than any single Mj and Scottie run and only behind 12 Bron and Wade, Nba finalist, 3x All star, had a top 10 Mvp finish, 2 x All Nba, Ecfmvp. Not the defender Scottie was but hes def a more consistent and skilled scorer specially in halfcourt. Both really well rounded w/ handles, rebounding, passing, versatile defense, scoring.

Even kind of has his own '94 with the '20 Raptors.

He is maybe a better scorer(but I'm not that high on Siakam's abilities as a scorer), but he's clearly worse athletically, much worse defender and passer.
So I don't actually think he's close really.
Bref's BPM isn't gospel for player X is better than player Y, but Siakam's nowhere near Pippen in that regard. In fact, Siakam's best season in BPM was 3.5
Pippen has 9 seasons. 9 seasons above that in the RS. 10 seasons above Siakam's best if we look at playoffs only.

Pippen's 94 season clears Siakam's 20 season.
It's not really close.

Not remote close. Pippen has a three year VORP that almost clears Siakam's entire career VORP.

Better post player and shooter.
