I remember Pippen and Barkley standing together during the All-Star game and the commentators using that moment to mention that the two had been in trade rumours, to be swapped for one another.

I also remember the Kemp rumours.

All of this, as I recall, happened before Pippen refused to enter the game, so I can't see how it could be "driven" by that. It was during the 1993-94 season, when Pippen was the All-Star game MVP. The refusal to go in happened in the playoffs of that season.
