Scottie Pippen says that his team, the ’95-’96 Chicago Bulls would just need four games to put way the Golden State Warriors if there is a 7–game season.
The Hall of Famer Scottie Pippen seems he doesn’t think that the now Golden State Warriors would match up with his ’95-’96 Chicago Bulls team. Scottie even said in a recent interview that they would knock down the current Warriors in a made-up 7-game season showdown.
“Bulls in four [games],” Scottie Pippen said in an interview in Houston.

Pippen joined forces with fellow basketball great, Michael Jordan during the 1995-96 season in Chicago Bulls wherein they’ve set a record of 72 regular season wins out of the 82 games. Currently, that was the current goal of the new Warriors team – to surpass that record and make their own history.
Scottie also predicts that he would have the assignment to guard the current league’s MVP Stephen Curry and for Michael Jordan, Klay Thompson.
“I think that my size and length would bother (Curry) a little bit,” said Pippen, who also declared that he could limit Curry to “fewer than 20 points,” Pippen said in the interview.
Scottie Pippen was together with the Chicago Bulls when they win six NBA championships, together with three wins in a row from 1966 to 1998.
Today’s Golden State Warriors need 5 wins from the last 6 games of the season to surpass the Bulls’ record of 72 wins.
Steve Kerr, the Warriors’ coach, and a team member of the Bulls, has something to say about the record-setting.
“I think the whole focus now the last 6 games is let’s just play well,” Steve Kerr said. “Let’s just be us, and let’s make hard cuts and set good screens and be crisp offensively and smart defensively.
Can the Golden State Warriors break the record of the ’95-’96 Chicago Bulls’ 72 wins for a season?
