The cameraman definitely hammed it up because he saw dollar signs but Dennis knows not to kick the guy, it genuinely didn’t look like he tripped over that guy at all. Dennis is as Dennis does. You get the good with the bad.

@@sideshowbobsaget8876 -- Duncan is the GOAT all around PF. But is he a better Defender than Rodman? He certainly is not a better rebounder. Rodman is seriously one of the only players that could guard everyone on the court. From Magic to Shaq.
@@MasterSpadeYes! Duncan was a better team defender, rim protector, shot blocker etc. KG could also guard 1-5 while being a better rim protector and shot blocker. Rodman is an all-time great defender, but the perception of his defensive (impact) is overrated. Bobby Jones could also switch on 1-5. Even A.Mason guarded 1-5. He shut down Shaq and Vince and also did a pretty good job on Jordan in the 98 playoffs. Also Duncan was pretty versatile. Just watched game 1 of the 98 WC 1st round Spurs vs Suns a Duncan was guarding Jason Kidd.
Rodman certainly had a very high energy level, great defensive skills and truly great offensive rebounding. Chuck Daley certainly valued him. Along with all the wonderful players Chuck had.
Wrong question: can Rodman play today since he can't shoot 3s? Right question: Does your team have a better chance of WINNING with 25 extra possessions? Well deserved HOFer
I say any of the great players from the past would play great in today's game. They would just have to change their game some. However, saying they wouldn't put up with Rodman's antics/style of play today isn't fair, because you can see from the clips they didn't put up with it back then. They did for a few years when he was with the Pistons and then his three years with the Bulls because they wanted the Bulls to win. But when he was on the Spurs before going to the Bulls and after the Bulls the league clamped down on him hard. Also, there's a lot of players today who do shit and get away with it so he would learn what he could and couldn't get away with. I'll say this for Rodman. He was the master at getting into the opposing players' heads. He would get people kicked out of games, sometimes he would also get kicked out but sometimes not. Plus, he'd be the best rebounder in the league and a great defensive player and he could hit shots at times when they counted.
Dennis took great pride in playing defense, and he was the most intelligent rebounder of all time. He took it very seriously. How many times did we see him flying -- full extension -- out of bounds to get the ball?
If I remember correctly, he even studied the ball rotation from release to a player bricking it and anticipated where the ball would go after the brick. It's no wonder he was the rebounding goat. His defensive presence was huge as well.
damn, stockton is a mean guy on the court, and everyone but Gary Payton forgets. The guy locks up Isaiah Thomas and then FLIPS RODMAN over his leg like a child wtf lmao 4:08
Rodman was a monument both in the Pistons and the Bulls. Rodman's example showed that you could feed the machine if you took care of the rebounds, as long as the teammates still cooked in the offensive front! Plus, that guy was so entertaining. He had a shit start in life, I am happy he saw the bright light at the end of the tunnel and got to shag Madonna, go to the hip parties, goof around in the court and wrestle in the wcw 😁
It's amazing how much Rodman changed as a player when he left the Pistons. When Chuck Daly got Rodman he was still wet behind the ears. He cried all the time he was just happy to play the game.
Loved Rodman but one thing that might degrade his effectiveness in the modern era is all the 3 point shooting leading to long rebounds. Still, I’d be shocked if he didn’t fully adapt snd school the powder puff generation.
Dennis Rodman would be perfect in this modern era, especially given the finesse required to actually play defense in modern basketball. The only issue is that these refs would foul Dennis for even blinking the wrong way given how many players catch fouls like catch and shoot 3 pointers.
Dennis Rodamn gives up 2 inches of height, 40 pounds of weight and about 1 foot's worth of Vertical Leaping ability to Lebron James...and yet he managed to lead the NBA in rebounding 7 straight years. Rodman's very existence is proof that "today's athlete's are so much better" argument is so wrong. If you switched the best guys yesteday into today's game, and vice versa...with the way they were raised, the games was played etc....one group would find success at both levels. The other group would find the bench. That's not a shot at today's athletes, its a condemnation of today's culture
A real impact player night in night out. The bulls and Pistons don’t have all that success without him. Responsible for all kinds of second and third chance shots wherever he played. Except here in San Antonio where these idiots screwed it up. They could’ve had him and Duncan and Robinson if he had lasted a couple years.
It’s funny how Lebum fans will use Rodman as a beating stick to say MJ had more help yet they still debate whether Rodman would be able to cut it in today’s NBA.
Im a Bulls fan. I loved them during this time, but it is possible that the camera man wasnt faking. The dude was old and Rodman was a professional player who probably kicked hard.
if you look at ALL the clips of Rodman gettin Techd or ejected, HE DID NOT START ANY OF IT!! they simply could not handle him!! and the leniency towards fouls back then just blew more air into the flame . And RODMAN was a HOTT flame already 🔥🔥❤🔥
Dennis Rodman was Bill Laimbeer's star pupil. "Agitate and walk away" He wasn't there to whup azz like Rick Mahorn, he was there to try and throw you off your game and make you focus on Rodman ...while playing great D and collecting 16 rebounds.
I miss old-school NBA. They should replace the commissioner, put the old rules back together(with the defense), and hope that LeBron retires since he's the one with the biggest contribution to all of this crap.
Dudes today do things they don’t even mean or even are qualified to do. So called Tough guys today would quit back then. Dudes would have a new career In ballet dancing.
Ppl also aren’t noticing the reactions to Rodman, back then you walked away and didn’t let him get under your skin, then he would flip out. It mirrors todays society
Yes, head butting players and refs is just SOO much fun. I loved Dennis for who he is and when he played like he was capable, but there was legitimately NO PLACE for some of the bullshit he pulled on the court.
Rodman would be less effective in this era due to the rules and officiating changes that penalize defense. Not saying he wouldn't be effective, just LESS so. Also, 3 point shots bounce further out on average when missed, which would drop his rebounding some (and I'll remind folks he was only a great rebounder for HALF of his career, though that seems to have been more of a "coach wants him to focus on other stuff" issue than him "suddenly learning great rebounding" issue).
What half are you referring to? His rookie year when he barely played? After that, he played more and was a beast in rebounds per minute and was an INCREDIBLE offensive rebounder and then just got better as he got more time
@@spacelion4763 Prior to 1991-1992, he was a fairly good but not all THAT impressive rebounder. 1991-1992 his rebounds per 36 minutes jumped *3.3* rebounds per 36 in one year, and over *4* from 2 years or more before that. Good before that point, IMPRESSIVE after.
Love the work, the power, the dedication. Hate the cheap tricks and need for attention. I wouldn't want him on my team. It would be exhausting to bring a ticking bomb to work with you every day
What you need to understand is kids these days come into NBA already famous and with money. They are no longer kids with adversity or tough life growing up. That is why NBA is no longer the same and why you will never see another Rodman. The 🪱!!! 😅
dennis existing the NBA for so long is proof of how soft today's league is.... I dont care what any fan today says. the most exciting and entertaining basketball is physical, emotional, unfriendly, and not "made-for-kids".
"In his career Rodman has paid $163000 in fines". For the kids, in 90s currency thats over half a mil today.. easily. Thats Not only a high output, but also longevity achievement. Surely thats a record ??
Rodman's career lasted from 1986-2000, pretty much the peak of the NBA in terms of competitiveness and entertainment value. Who cares if he could play today? Today's NBA is an inferior product.
Sorry. Rodmans game was straight 1980s to early 90s. His lack of shooting ability, especially from mid range and deep and his very physical defensive style would both negate his rebounding prowess. Hes the one who would be playing in China today.
I was never a big fan of Rodman's antics, but he could play on my team any day. The only issue with Rodman playing in today's league is he would probably be thrown out after 2 minutes in every game! Some soft ass player like Durant or LeBron would start whining to the refs, and Rodman would be gone. MJ would have never won as many rings without Rodman playing for the Bulls, that is a fact!
I don't feel like this video showed any love to my all time favorite NBA player. But you say you loved his game so I wiil go with that. And to the Rodman haters in the comment section; I feel sorry for you for missing Rodman's career and your ignorance. And oh. By the way. Rodman averaged 25.7 points and 15.7 rebounds with a field goal percentage of .637 in college so please shut up.
The 80's and 90's was a top tier time for basketball.

Sorry. Rodmans game was straight 1980s to early 90s. His lack of shooting ability, especially from mid range and deep and his very physical defensive style would both negate his rebounding prowess. Hes the one who would be playing in China today.
I was never a big fan of Rodman's antics, but he could play on my team any day. The only issue with Rodman playing in today's league is he would probably be thrown out after 2 minutes in every game! Some soft ass player like Durant or LeBron would start whining to the refs, and Rodman would be gone. MJ would have never won as many rings without Rodman playing for the Bulls, that is a fact!
Bitte mach doch ein NBA Format in deutsch digga 😊
I don't feel like this video showed any love to my all time favorite NBA player. But you say you loved his game so I wiil go with that. And to the Rodman haters in the comment section; I feel sorry for you for missing Rodman's career and your ignorance. And oh. By the way. Rodman averaged 25.7 points and 15.7 rebounds with a field goal percentage of .637 in college so please shut up.
today, he would get himself kicked out of the league sooo faaaast
Dennis Rodman played to entertain the audience.
Today’s players play for money, stat padding & load management only.
