Pippen, who is residing in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, believes he is the perfect individual to replace Boylan as the permanent head coach, according to the Chicago Tribune. Pippen played 11 seasons with the Bulls.

Pippen doesn’t believe the lack of coaching experience would be a problem.
“What experience do you need?,” he asked. “You have assistants, who have been there. If I made a mistake, I wouldn’t be the first coach to make a mistake. I’d love the opportunity to be part of the organization now that Skiles is gone.”
