I actually met him as a kid when he was on the Pistons. Guy was incredibly nice and took time to sign a card and chat with me and my pops even though his security was trying to get us the hell out of the way. Still have that card!
I'd love to see that mug.
That’s Dope AF ! 💪
I met him at L.P. H.S. when he and Joe had a camp there in 87? I was in elementary school but IT WAS SO COOL
I also met him at the Mirage in 94. What a character 🔥
Wow man, Rodman has such a wonderful spirit
Janitor at an airport, Division II college prospect, 2nd round pick, and to becoming a Hall of Famer and one of the 75 best, his path to his success is an inspirational one. He had the athleticism and the IQ to play, but his hunger and drive seemed like the best that there ever was.
...and he has asthma. 💨

...and he has asthma. 💨
His power to annoy was supreme, unmatched. My former brer-in-law the Celtics devotee once told me he couldn't get Rodman to leave a dream he was having. He was built to do this
Mahorn, Lambier, Rodman. How do you play a game against those three and not have your head screwed with?
As a Piston fan since mid 80's. Dennis the best defender I've seen. Didn't take a day off ever. He could go to Vegas party it up, play that evening, still gave 100%. One of the only players in sport that could do that. Mentally Dennis was too good, nobody could trash talk him. The Best
Talk to the guy who pitched a no hitter tripping on acid.
@@eduardopena5893 Two different sports. This should be in the "best pitcher ever" UA-cam page. Would the pitcher on acid be able to grab 20 rebounds in an NBA game? NOPE!
@@markusgreenidge8330 Would Dennis Rodman perfectly sober be able to step onto a mound and pitch a complete game shutout and continue to be one of the better pitchers in the history of the game? NOPE.
What's your point, genius?
The OP states in the history of SPORT, not just basketball.
@@eduardopena5893 - The title AND THE VIDEO is about rebounding genius. Not acid tripping pitchers. GTFO! 😂
I've always believed that Dennis Rodman was an underrated passer! He was a really good passer if you ask me! Many times he'd get the rebound and throw a good outlet pass which would lead to an easy basket! And obviously he's the best rebounder I've ever seen! I was born in 1977, so I wasn't around when Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain were averagin 20+ rebounds! But my favorite part in The Last Dance was when Dennis Rodman talked about rebounding! And I quote: "I'd just sit there and react, react. I just practiced a lot about the angle of the ball and the trajectory of it. You got a Larry Bird, it's gonna spin. You got a Magic, it'll maybe spin. When Michael shoot over here, I position myself right there. Now it hit the rim, it's boom. Click, go back this way. Boom, here, here. Click, go that way. Boom, that way. Click here, this way. So basically I just start learning how to put myself in a position to get the ball." My jaw dropped open when I saw him reveal his secrets in The Last Dance!
I also read in a Dennis Rodman autobiography where he would say that he would very rarely box out! He would just tip the ball to himself!
He was really good at rabbit passes, extremly good tbh!
Hehe, my brother and I used to call him the Human Pogo Stick. He could jump twice for every one time someone else could jump. Just mind-blowing. I've never ever seen him get tired either.
I am always looking to understand how he knew how to position himself, how he knew where the rebound would go
no he aint. This entire comment section is about how great Dennis Rodman is. Take 10 seconds and scroll down and see the 100 other people sayin "hes UnDeRaPrEcIaTeD". No he aint, we all appreciate him as a goat defensive player, stop playin.
Just look at what Rodman did against Shaq, his mental acumen and physical toughness to take 1 of the greatest in the game was legendary.
I don’t know any other player that showed the level of joy that Rodman displayed while playing basketball, he was like a child that could not hide the big smile on his face. Great player and team player.
Rodman is one of my favorite players of all time. Underrated and way ahead of his time. Meaning, imagine if he was around during social media. The grief he was given over his personality then weighed heavily on him.
He'd be beloved today I think. He was too different back then, He'd be a cultural icon now. I wanted him to come to Denver and play next to Mt. Motumbo and bring us a chip.
As a piston fan for the past 60 years, i know and love dennis. Impress yourself by recalling that he's the guy that was dominant the late 80's and the late 90's, with back to back championships with my pistons, and back to back to back championships with the bulls. Ten years, six championships.
I remember being 4 years old, watching the 1988 NBA Finals and watching the Pistons play that year (this was the start of me watching basketball).. and I clearly remember telling my Grandpa "the Pistons are better when that Rodman guy plays. They need to play him more." I think that might have turned my Grandfather into a Rodman fan, because my Grandfather always cheered for whatever team Dennis Rodman was on after, while I always cheered for the Bulls. When Dennis Rodman joined the Bulls, it really felt like a match made in heaven. My Grandfather and I both cheering on the Bulls seemed like an unreal dream that first year Rodman was there... it's too bad my Grandfather never lived to see the other Championships the Bulls and Rodman would work for.
5 championships.
@@cantpleasonist hay! two plus three is SIX! :)
Uhhh…. 6 Finals but 5 Championships
He went to 3 Straight 2x
But Won 2 of 3 Straight Appearances going Back to Back Repeat with The D
Then of course 3 Straight Winning them all with Chicago
Back to Back to Back 3Peat
I hated Rodman until he came to the Bulls. Once you saw his dedication every night, can't help but be a fan of the guy. He was that pest that you hate when he's the opponent, but love when he's on your side.
one of my favorite players. When he went to the Bulls I knew that team would do something special. The reason I new that because the season before when Jordan came back the Magic dominated the rebound in their series and sent the bulls packing.
Rodman coming to the Bulls was Krause's doing. Amazing what happens when players don't try to be GM.
Heck Yea … I Love seeing Dennis crying for The Award He achieved because He wanted it so Goodly
All Heart I Love That ish 💪
Thanks for making this video. Those, who deny Rodman's greatness, here.
If I had to start a line up, Rodman will always be my starter. My favorite player next to MJ.
Oh, you wouldn’t pick Jerry West or Len Bias after Rodman?! #JustKidding
Rodman could play with anyone. Imagine if he played on the Dream Team instead of that kid from Duke.
same here. Any team he joins, it automatically gets better.
Thanks for the video. Dennis Rodman was phenomenal. One of the greatest rebounders ever. 7 straight rebounding titles from 1992-98. Not even Wilt, Russ and Moses Malone even accomplished that.
I forgot that dennis had more in a row than wilt - wilt had four in a row twice and three in a row once
@@gregoryjanuszczak4250 wow.
The only reason Wilt didn't have 8 or 9 in a row is because he ruptured his patella in the 1970 season and only played 13(?) games. He led the league 11 out of 13 full seasons played.
Wilt had 11 total. if he weren't injured 1969/70, he would have 9 in a row and 12 total, w/o that injury and w/o Bill Russel, he would have 14 in a row.
Wilt was fantastic obv but it's a different era. Rodman has 7 of the top 20 rebounding percentage seasons of all time. Wilt's best rebounding season isn't in the top 150.
What's that mean in simple terms? Wilt played in an era with many many more missed shots, and more available rebounds
Watch his HoF speech. It's great. You can really see how much he loves the game talking about everyone that helped him
My dad bought me a Dennis Rodman Doll and it had interchangeable head with his neon green hairstyle. He was always my fav because he dared to be himself, and did not care what anyone thought! He is still my fav! He was doing the hair, tattoos, and piercings wayyy before it became popular! ❤
On the ball, Dennis was the best defender in the Nba for me
Every time I think about my all time starting 5, The Worm worms his way in. Two all-time duos... and Dennis Rodman. The best players in each position... and Dennis Rodman. His ability to stop his opponents from playing basketball is underappreciated.
Stop it.
no it aint. Your in a fucking comment section dedicated to Dennis Rodman's greatness, stop acting like he needs more or less fame, the dudes probably one of the most famous players EVER.
Great video! One thing you didn't mention, however, is how he actually used to analyze the rotations on the ball so he knew where the rebound would go depending on who was shooting the ball.
You both were so smart Michael Jordan and Dennis Rodman it should be a book wrote on those two I love them both they're the reason why I used to look at Lakers and the bulls play Dennis Rodman man that's the greatest and he will entertain you I love Dennis Rodman always no matter what he think of his own self he is a icon and he proved it
I remember Dennis pounding magic all the way up the court. He was phenomenal. And I saw him play for Lakers he'd miss a free throw and walk under the basket and lick his finger and held it up like to check the wind lol.or once the ref rolled him the ball when Dennis was at the free throw line and Dennis watched it roll by him out to center court. They Teed him up ahaha but I don't blame him why should he bend down to get it.
Oh and I sat right behind Carmen Electra and she was fkng smoking hott. Never thought much of her till I saw her in person omg she's hott
Pounded magic all the way up the arse*
good to know, ill "save" that note about Carmen Electra for "later".
Rodman cried at his award for defensive player of the year because he is a real competitor. He worked his ass off and finally got recognized by league. One of my favorite players growing up.
I would love to see him in today's game, esp since you can't hand check anymore. He was really a thinking player; able to analyze things and position himself in the right place all the time.
A great defensive player and rebounder plus a great passer.
Got to be the most underrated player ever!
One of the best to ever lace them up. Appreciated him on the Pistons, just didn't like them. Loved him on the Bulls.
My dear mother (in her 80s at the time), may she Rest In Peace, simply loved Dennis. She claimed ……” yes, but the other guy always starts it. They always pick on him.”
Outliers like him are usually pretty intelligent in my experience….
Of course this man stood out….when you have talent, you leave it all out on the court, and then continue to entertain off the court. Superstar.
I’m probably younger around here (Aug 31st, 96) but mannnnnnn the worm is ALWAYS in my top 5 of all time. What he did can’t be replicated 🤷🏽♂️🫡
I wish I had the fountain of youth.... I give some to Dennis Rodman so he would live forever ✊🏿
One of the best damn defensive players
Rodman was a stellar passer too. Phenomenal BB-IQ, no question. One of the hardest working players I've had the privilege of watching.
Rodman...legend, fucking legend
So glad to see some of these clips, a lot of people really do seem to look down on Rodman cause of his antics outside of the court. Man was a monster in the game.
Thank you btm time machine. Great channel! One love from Long Beach California! Peace
recently finished his biography, such an interesting human and great basketballer, a true legend
Dude got the rebound, sprinted all the way down and got another rebound. Insane amount of energy. Wow
I LOVE Rodman's tenacity. And for his size, his rebounding ability is elite. But...there are BETTER rebounders we can choose from...easily.
Wilt or Bill any day of the week.
Thank you! What's wrong with saying Rodman was great or amazing? The best all time is an insult to those who came before him.
@@mattesyl33 I said elite...but great and amazing is good too. But...the best ever? Eh. 😄
No doubt 😅
Rodman stats speak for themselves. Wilt and Russel def ahead of him but not when it comes down to rebounds and defense. Look up the numbers, if you want.
@@pennywise1682 Rebounding numbers are HEAVILY in Wilt and Bill's favor. 50+ rebounds in a playoff game...multiple times.
Not even close in defense either. Broke back Larry schooled Rodman.
I really admire athletes who are just such tenacious competitors who bust their buts and sacrifice day in day out!
Who didn't know Dennis Rodman was a basketball savant🤨? He was a master when he made it to Chicago
People always bring up starting 5’s…
You can swap out any player/position, but Rodman is always my starting PF
It’s crazy to think that from 96-98 the Bulls arguably had the 3 best defensive players in the league
Ron Harper was a great defender too. 4 of the best defenders of the league together in the same team, that's unbelievable
@@ThePhoenix1990 absolutely right. Forgot about him.
@@kevinwheesysouthward9295 Most people forget about Ron Harper.
@@jasondyrkacz8270 I always think of him on the Cavs
Add Ron Happer the hand checking king!
Best videos. Appreciate you my brother
love your format...it's a winner.
What chief said is so spot-on. Nobody takes pride in the defense side now days
Awesome Tribute! Players today wouldn’t know what they’re watching b/c basketball unfortunately is not the same as it was in the 90’s
fantastic video! great job!
To win a game you need the ball. That's IT !
My favorite player of all time. He is IMO the GOAT defensive player.
Every team would love a player like Rodman! Kind of reminds me of Draymond Green
Great stuff!
Rodman was amazing. Such love for the game. Absolutely love Dennis Rodman.
I grew up north of Chicago in the late 80s and lucky enough to experience the 6 in 8 run but prior to the last three when I heard they got Rodman my first reaction was oooh man that guy from detroit i hate all while all you heard from the media was is he going to break appart the team. What were they thinking? Three years later good thing they got him. Obviously internet in its infancy days circa mid 90s its not until way later you learn of some of the stories like how Dennis was pretty much broke and it set up a perfect situation where he needed to perform and under a guy who despite years was an adversary he respected the hell out of in Jordan - on the court you can tell Dennis did not want to let Jordan down. He turned out to be the ultimate team mate, all energy all the time, never took a play off. Mike probably put up with some of that off court stuff because he knew at the end of the day Dennis wanted to win. Him running down the court both arms up like he just hit a game 7 winner are great. Kids today will never see an anomoly like Rodman since its all just a collection of shooters, this guy is in the hall on the strength of defense and rebounding the basketball which manifests itself from work ethic and his under rated baskeball IQ. I miss the days when players took pride in playing defense
My favorite player when I was playing I was always trying to rebound and defend like him
Back when I played 2k, my internet was trash so I always hated taking jump shots online. I made my build based around Rodman, 6'8 230 lbs, pure defence and rebounding badges. That was probably the most fun build I ever had, and it always killed me when people got mad that I'm 6'8 and can't shoot a 3 until they saw me rebound over everyone while able to switch off to defend the perimeter lmao.
I made it a goal to aim for lower than 6 pts, but always aimed for more than 15 rebounds. the funniest shit is hearing people be like "how the fuck you get 2 points but 24 rebounds and 8 assists?"
Someone went out there and did this huge deep dive on statistivs...and showed that Rodman wasn't just an eleite rebounder...he was so elite he skewed the stats. Literally the best rebounder ever. He was able to collect a larger percentage of available rebounds than anyone else in history. And, unlike most rebounders, he was just as effective an offensive rebounder as he was a defensive rebounder.
love Rodman when he became Chicago Bulls from 1995-1998 it sad his NBA Career was Over in 1999 was last NBA Game play
Dude was a machine. Always ready to go.
Waaaayyy too short my brother!! Needed 30mins plus! Great content, solid editing. Thanks!
Truly one of a kind.
I recall some of the playoff runs where Rodman was THE man and turned things around. Where MJ and Scotty had partied too much and were not able to get beyond cruising it was Rodman going on a tear with rebounding, blocking and shutting people down in the zone. It was incredible to witness.
He was also the funniest NBA player of all-time too.
Would love to see Rodman vs Chamberlain......
1 of the greatest
So underrated…. Enormously underrated…… Give the worm his flowers. Dude earned every f@cking ounce of respect and every frickin penny he got paid. It’s hard to explain how important he was to those teams. Especially where he fit in the most. The pistons and then the bulls. All I know is when I heard the news back in the 95-96 season with the bulls that he was joining the team, I immediately thought of a championship run. The bulls were lacking that toughness and defensive presence. Especially when Dennis can guard on the perimeter and clamp guys in the post. The guy was simply phenomenal. Words cannot express how good he was. You have to watch the games and every play to see the true ridiculousness of his presence on that court. The Amazing Dennis Rodman🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏼✊🏼
Rodman's defense was ruthless. And I loved how he frustrated the big guys (Magic, Barkley, Malone-I mean big). He didn't care who you were or how big you were, he was there to hustle. He was fearless in that regard. He was something to behold.
Bulls fan here, I always thought of Dennis on the same plane as Scottie Pippen. I loved the way he played the game and absolutely knew how great he was. I always tell people on my perfect team I’d have Magic, MJ, Pippen, Rodman, and Kareem. His style fits a team with scorers perfectly. Selfless and relentless.
My favorite player of all time. A true warrior and winner.
I wish I could express just how important Dennis Rodman has been in my life. I wore #10 in middle school in honor of Dennis.
so fun to watch Dennis Rodman
Just subscribed. Great stuff
I would love to see the nba go back to the physicality of the late 80s and early 90s and keep the hand check and see how the stars of today would perform
Pound for Pound the GOAT Rebounder.
3:48 wow I’ve never seen that block before of PE before! That might be the best block of a dunk I’ve ever seen
🐛 🐐
I miss them days bruh when sports were worth watching nice vid brotha keep on grindin
He'd be on my all time starting 5
I don't remember if it was when Rodman was on the Pistons or the Bulls, but it was early in his career, and one of his teammates mentioned in an interview that he would study the trajectory of rebounds, in other words, he would know the ball would miss, and know roughly where the ball would end up before the ball arrived. And that doesn't account for his passion, tenacity and toughness as a basketball player. The guy was an absolute beast on the court.
Isaiah said that in an interview...
@@user-vu7us9sw9i I thought it might have been someone on the Pistons. Good memory.
So much respect for his work ethic.
Pound for pound the best and toughest rebounder of all time…and D-Rod along with MJ and Pip… thats 3 of the top 3 defenders at their position of all time with the same team.
Dennis rodman is that friend who is wiser than most of us but act like a goofy jokester
Rodman was instrumental in the Bulls 96-98 3-peat. Without him, they likely get trounced out of the playoffs early.
absolutely but MJ gets all the glory. smh
Rodman had an insane vertical leap. He would hit his head on the backboard, a lot. The other thing he had, was the ability to know where the ball was going to bounce.
So half of it was smart, the other half was athleticism.
Building a greatest team of all time roster....Rodman is an absolute must.
HE DOES NOT GET THE RESPECT HE DESERVES
Even Jordan was amazed the guy could play a whole game at full intensity and then ride the bike for an hour afterward.
bruh hes in the hall of fame, literally any time you bring up defense on a team it boils down to "yeah but they aint no Dennis Rodman".
One dislike..... What's there not to like? WHO ARE YOU?! ACCUSE YOURSELF!!
Rodman was truly one of the best a larger than life character
He would study angles and rotations of different players to anticipate the ball? Good god what a legend
I love Rodman. He's one of the greatest for sure. But GOAT rebounder? Let's not forget about Wilt Chamberlain, who pulled down an other-worldly 55 rebounds in a single game against the most successful team in NBA history, Bill Russell's Boston Celtics?
Chamberlain led the league in rebounding a record 11 times! One season he averaged 27 rebounds a game. In 15 seasons, Wilt averaged 23 rebounds a game for his entire career. He still holds 21 NBA rebounding titles, including 8 in the playoffs such as most rebounds in a single post-season (444) and highest average in a single playoff series (32 against the mightly Celtics). So many his records are likely never to be broken.
As well, I understand fully it was a different era and teams took more shots and therefore there were more rebounds to be had. But there's no chance Rodman would have increased his career average from 13 to even close to 23 had he played during this time. And contrary to most assumptions, Wilt did everything he did while facing some of the greatest big men in NBA history. There was less talent to go around then but there were far fewer teams (from 8 when he started to 17 when he ended his career), so Chamberlain was going up against some great teams and faced Hall of Fame big men nearly every game he played, people like Bill Russell, Nate Thurmond, Walt Bellamy, Jerry Lucas, and, later, Kareem Abdul Jabbar.
If you want to point to championships, let's not forget that basketball is a team sport, and to win requires high levels of play from teammates and good coaching. The two times Wilt Chamberlain had those elements, he won championships. If he somehow ended up on the Celtics instead of Russell, I think Chamberlain would have won even more championships than the Celtics legend ultimately did.
Rodman are the epitome of defender in basketball realm.Don't care about shooting himself but he also won't give a chance opponents to score.Rare breed in this generation baller
RODMAN WAS A CLOWN LARRY BIR.D KICKED HIS ASS ALL OVER THE COURT
One of the best PF's ever.
I like your videos and your english is do neat
pound for pound....the best rebounder ever.
I have always love him. He was the reason I watched basketball as a kid. Not anymore.
Best wishes from Sweden
Here's how smart he was. Outside of rebounds and dives that no one else could pull off or even try to go for, he got in your head. He would hug you and eat the foul just to let you know he's not gonna give you 2 points or the confidence that builds with it easily. He would whisper things in guys ears. Drive em crazy. Eventually the best opponents were in big foul trouble because they couldn't NOT react. That's how you shut someone down
Dennis il migliore atleta il più simpatico ❤
The worm was a iron machine period. Quite thinker and very smart player in the NBA
Well he had 5 NBA titles across 2 teams. In his prime all teams were 50 plus game winners.
So he made a significant difference.
That's cool to here Alonzo give Dennis love. Dennis used to piss Zo off so much lmao.
The best Shaq neutralizer there ever was.
Loved his game. I found the colors, ink, and metal on his face distracting. But he was one heck of a great player. Rodman and Barkley are the offensive rebounders for me.
