Besides, the Sonics had Perkins playing stretch 5 alongside Kemp who was a very good mid-range shooter but that did stop Rodman from controlling the boards. You also had Pippen/Jorn who were very good rebounds for their positions.

On defense, he was mobile enough to guard Dryamond & switch onto Curry without looking helpless. Dude was a small-forward when he was w/ the Pistons & won back-to-back DPOY awards. He actually did guard Schrempf in the '96 Finals for stretches so he was comfortable guarding cats on the perimeter.

I don't think Pippen meant it when he said they would "SWEEP" but they could counter the "Death Line-up" with this:

Rodman
Kukoc
Pippen
Jorn
Harper
