CHICAGO (WLS) -- In a new ad for Foot Locker, Scottie Pippen calls himself the greatest Chicago Bulls player of all time.

But don't go on the defensive just yet. The ad also features the Houston Rockets' James Harden, looking for a fresh start, who seeks advice from retired Phoenix Suns star Charles Barkley, who advises Harden that to be great, all you need is a short memory.

The ad starts with Harden asking Barkley for his best advice.

Barkley: All the greats have short memories

Harden: So, when you had a bad game, you just forgot about it?

Barkley: Never had a bad game.

Harden: You don't remember they used to call you "The Round Mound Rebound?"

Markley: (shaking his head) Mmmm, uh-uh.

Harden: Remember when you threw that guy though the window?

Barkley: I'm a pacifist.

Harden: What about the time you-

Barkley: Look, all I know is, all the greats have short memories. Scottie Pippen knows!

Pippen: I sure do! And I'm the greatest Chicago Bull of all time!
