Shannon Sharpe and Gilbert Arenas have slammed the "No Bull" tour, led by Scottie Pippen, Horace Grant, and Luc Longley, with the Bulls champions set to take aim at ex-teammate Michael Jordan and the 'Last Dance' docuseries. The tour of public appearances, which will be hosted in conjunction with Australia's National Basketball League, is expected to rehash recent concerns about the ESPN documentary, which Pippen has previously described as inauthentic and about 'glorifying' Jordan.

Scottie Pippen and his Chicago Bulls teammates Horace Grant and Luc Longley will join Michael Jordan, the club's six NBA titles, and The Last Dance, a controversial ESPN film about those teams. The 'No Bull' tour opens in Tasmania on Friday, before heading to Melbourne and Sydney in partnership with Australia's National Basketball League. The three former Bulls appeared at the NBL's award ceremony in Melbourne, which is where the 55-year-old Longley was born. Pippen, a Hall of Fame member, was a member of all six of the Bulls' championship-winning squads. Grant won three titles in Chicago before going to Orlando as a free agent in 1994, which was when Longley joined the Bulls for the second three-peat of the decade. The No Bull tour will revive recent skepticism of the documentary, which Pippen and other Bulls saw as favoring Jordan, who reportedly reached a 'final cut' on the order.
