    --------
    In this clip, John Salley shared his thoughts on Gilbert Arenas saying that Dennis Rodman couldn't guard LeBron, and while he believes that Gilbert is right in some aspects, John still thinks Rodman is one the most "unbelievable specimens" to ever play in the NBA. John went on to state that LeBron is a mix of great players, including Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant, and Michael Jordan.

      @@CodyvsEveryone defense isn't what it used to be. Defense is actually played without fouling. The 3 point line is prominent. And scorer are way better. Not to mention is harder to play defense now than before. Because before you didnt have worry about 3s, it was less than 10 3s being shot. Now its over 30. And its not just guarding 3point line its guarding BEYOND. Players are a scoring threat as soon as they pass half court. Which spreads the defense out. Elephant in the room is players are bigger,, stronger, faster and more athletic as well. So in reality its much more difficult to play defense. And actually harder to score because of zones. But let the old heads tell it.

      Until 2 yrs ago the offensive player was allowed to foul. Look what Harden did to get his free throws.
      And no, handchecking is not fouling! It's called physical D and scoring against it was a lot harder. Look at the videos of LeBron complaining that he is not allowed to play D.
      I've been watching NBA games since 87 and I enjoy the higher scoring but it has gotten too easy...sometimes it feels like the team that hits more 3-point attempts wins, regardless of D. That is the reason for team USA' s struggles in international tournaments. It used to be the opposite way with the rest of the world struggling to keep up with the physical play of Team US...
      That all being said I don't want the 90's Pistons and Knicks defense back...it was ugly, but a LITTLE more physicality would improve the game. We have seen glimpses of it when they let the Celtics play D vs. the Nets in the last playoffs.
      Just allow that and I'm fine...

    Rodman would get a friend to shoot over a hundred shots with different spins just to practice getting rebounds. He would study film on how opponents shot the ball and what their tendencies were. Rodman would've adjusted to the rule set because he would put in the work to do so. He was a genius in hos own way.

    Wrong Salley, LeBron is not all of them. The reason why is because he can't score at all 3 levels. He's either going to shoot the 3 or try to take it all the way. He doesn't have the mid range game like Kobe and Jordan. Put someone with a little bit of size and speed on him, he'll struggle. That's why Kawhi was able to do so well with him during the finals; Kawhi was able to stay in front of him and wasn't able to be bullied. In terms of just scoring, LeBron was much easier to guard then Kobe or MJ which is what Rodman was referring to

      Who's guarded LeBron before who's even close to the defensive player Rodman is. The game was more physical before LeBron came to the league. Guys just stand around while LeBron drives. In the 80s they'd hack the shit out of you

      Rodman wouldn't have to hack LeBron. Rodman could slide his feet. LeBron couldn't blow by Rodman all the time. LeBron has never developed a low post move. He couldn't give up the ball. Go to the blocks and punish Rodman. Jordan and Kobe could get on the blocks and score.

    Rodman had 2 different careers defensively. The first was perimeter oriented hench lower rebounding the second half was post oriented rebounding crazy numbers. In his early years Rodman was one of the Best athlete to ever play in the NBA and had a very high basketball IQ. Lastly, if Rodman was playing today he would have access to today's sports medicine etc. Bottom line both these guys could play in either's time. Oh and for those who say LeBron is to big for Rodman, I advise watching the finals between the mavs and heat!!!
