1995-96 Bulls would sweep Warriors in NBA - Pippen

Los Angeles (AFP) - The dominant Chicago Bulls team of 1995-96 would sweep the NBA's current kings Golden State in a seven-game series, Hall of Famer and former Bulls point guard Scottie Pippen said.

"Bulls in four (games)," Pippen said in an interview on the "The Dan Patrick Show" radio show when asked which team would win such a hypothetical showdown.

Pippen teamed with Michael Jordan to lead the 1995-96 Bulls to the record 72 regular-season wins that the Warriors are now chasing.

Pippen said he thought he would have the task of guarding reigning NBA Most Valuable Player Stephen Curry while Jordan would likely guard Klay Thompson.
