He's a professional. He came to work and did his job. I work with a lot of guys I never talk to but we get the job done.
4 Ben Media i thin you mean you dont talk to outside work. because communication is crucial in work. you can work together successfully by communicating even if you dont maintain relationship on a personal level
4 Ben Media nah that's just being insecure and weird
Marion Parrish How?
Yes
Do you all know ASL?
That's why they was so good as a team they was not in each others business
Like what happened to the lakers 2000-2004
+Makaveli The Don and now in 2015-2016 too

He's actually a super nice guy. I saw him at a party in a marina in Miami once. He's walking in as I'm going the opposite direction. At first I'm like... Damn, that's one enormous dude. Eventually, my eyes made it to his face and my jaw dropped. I'm from Chicago and have always been a fan of his since I was a little kid. He noticed my jaw drop and gave a huge smile and walked right up and introduced himself! Good thing, or I would have walked right past, too afraid to say anything and regretted it forever. So, instead of leaving the party early as I had planned, I got to sit around and have drinks and bullshit with rodman and his friends. It was pretty awesome, I must say..
which marina? scottys landing?
You are lucky you saw him. Longed to see him but am in Nairobi,Kenya in East African. I grew in the village with No TVs no Electricity but I managed to get few old daily papers and find nba game photos. Once In a while i get for then Bulls with Rodman and id cut and keep. That made my day. Thank God you saw him. He is Great
You have a vivid imagination.
Fake I’m his son he’s never been to a party bro
Lol not even a photo to prove it!
Who cares about his looks, the man is a genius. His basketball IQ is unreal, and he is extremely articulate. If this man had a sliver of stability during his upbringing who knows how far he could've gone. Ending up in the HOF was this man's floor not ceiling.
+Jeremy Moore He's not unintelligent, but I've heard few misuse words as much as Dennis- whether that's due to nervousness or whatever. Smart o.k. Sad certainly. Articulate? no
Extremely articulate? I think that's a stretch.
I'm a fan of Rodman anyway. Even though I used to love the showtime Lakers- learned to appreciate his work ethic (except for his behavior w the Spurs). He was still a really excellent defender up through 95-96 season. The last 2 Bulls championships he really didn't play defense like he once did. Occasionally entertaining or interesting off the court. Seems like a genuine if damaged guy(from interviews & articles from the Pistons years). Wish he can find some peace in his life.
Don't know how he pulled hotties like Electra and Madonna
I'd say guys like Musk, Assange, Hawking or guys working at CERN are nearing genius level IQs, but apparently to some people, Dennis Rodman - the tattooed, drugged up, alcoholic basketball player that can't even put on his clothes in an intelligent manner is a genius.
Get real, mate. Rodman is not a total moron, but he is not very smart. It's obvious he isn't. He was good at what he did for a certain time period, but that doesn't make him a genius.
Dennis was a freakish athlete and genius. For his size, he had enormous strength and agility. He was stronger than guys that were bigger than him.
to me he belongs in the 50 greatest players of all team, easily
he was great he could defend anyone. I remember how he defended Shaq and defended him well
+Black7od Facts. And don't forget - his greatest physical attribute might have been his monstrous endurance. Even Jordan once said of Rodman - "most gifted athlete ever - we could practice all day, and whereas everyone else couldn't wait to get home and crash, Dennis would hit up Vegas till 6 am, walk into practice without sleep, and then play in that night's live telecast without showing any signs whatsoever of fatigue."
ankh life ✊✊✊
+Joseph DeSano Hakeem was fucking godly lol no surprise to me there.
Dennis' game is Legendary.
James Lising Definitely
Greatest rebounder ever.
+Blaqnostic Chamberlain
+ZuberiGaming better
+ZuberiGaming rodman better. for being like 4 inches shorter than the giant chamberlain, he grabbed so many boards with way better competition than what wilt had. Rodman > wilt in rebounds
True
+_Battlefield-_-Ruler_ Chamberlain had 25.4 rebounds a game over a season's length.
sometimes i forget how real people are...rodman is complicated. he is human
Every basketball team needs a player like Rodman he did all the dirty work on the court
Michael Vaughn like Draymond Green
He sure did
Best rebounder
Draymod Green ...nice comparison fuck face ....u truly no.jacl.shit about the game U Oxygen thief
@@morand-gw7xn tf is wrong with you
"All I do is rebound and play defense" HAHAAHA legend!
And have a millions dollar and girls hahhaa savage
I really enjoyed this interview. Too many people paint Dennis in a negative light. I think this one really shows the TRUE professional he was.
+Skyler Rader Thanks, Skyler!
+Skyler Rader I agree. But it also does a good job showing what a headcase he was.
+Skyler Rader He was a bad boy piston afterall.
***** right? He had/has some serious issues. Come on - who doesn't have a single conversation with their co-workers (teammates, moreover)?? I feel bad for him, though. Talking about his parents, or lack thereof, really hit a nerve. It's like, he can know what the cause is, and even admit it, but still not get help with it. (Partly because ... how can something like that be helped?? ... I know how, but I digress)
Aquariuskudo uh huh. That's what it was.
This guy is a genius in asking questions, very open ended and non-judgemental. He brought really good answers from his other interviews like with Manny Pacquiao. He also reacts correctly while Dennis is answering. Great!
they say he is shit. he has the highest basketball IQ ever. know the ball will bounce and when and where to pass. kids saying hes trash coz he wont score dont know shit. thats not basketball IQ
+jjays otag He is one of the few people next to Jason kidd who can completely take over a game without even scoring. Rodman has otherworldly intelligence... which is why he's so crazy. I don't think he sees in the same wavelength as normal people lol.
+jjays otag they need to get their heads outta their asses an listen to him talk... he could score, hed rather play team ball
In college Rodman averaged 25.7 points per game on 63.7 FG% through 4 straight years, along with 15.7 rebounds per game. He was a freak. I guess when he got to the NBA he decided to focus only on rebounding and defense.
+jjays otag Rodmans just a unique sort of guy,I like that though.
+Lcarpetron, no the Piston decided that for him. Too many guards there in Detroit. Also, look at this I saw Dennis miss by himself at least 5 layups, yes, all alone! He did used to shoot around before the game....well dunked layups, in both Detroit and with the Bulls!
All Dennis ever wanted was a little love.
Yup. hE's WiErD. 🙄
a 6'5 center ...didnt realize he was such a student of the game...say whatever you want about hin, but he was really committed
+o shah u mean 6'7
that's his listed height but jordan said he was 'smaller than me'.
oh, ok didn't know that
Draymond Green is 6'5" and plays the center and power forward positions...
+clu4u the difference is in the 90's the bigs were shaq, dream, Drob, ewing, mourning, mutumbo, malone, barkley etc...lol Draymond play in a time where he can guard dwight howard...a man who doesnt have one single post move
1 weird ass guy but cool as fuck, love him forever
aaron p Not weird, but "DIFFERENT"....weird is what elementary individuals use as something to describe themselves. #facts #you'rewelcome
Weird or not,but definitely one of the best defensive guy I've ever seen on the court,if he played it was just fun to watch,cos he made the best scorers crazy all the time
aaron p ,z
That’s a lie I️ met jordan and Rodman once at a strip club in San Antonio
Tr3 Styl3s you sound soft lol he is weird not different
Dennis could dominate a game without scoring a point.
Sure as hell could - no doubt!!!
I heard somewhere that after a game, after playing an entire fucking game, all the rebounding and hustling, Dennis still got on a bicycle machine for at least 2 to 3 hours. Rodman was a machine.
SerlingPictures all this with asthma
yes steve kerr said it on Open Court
Aries moon energy! Ashwini Pada 1. I have the same placement and I can go for days on end without sleep and still exercise and work like a horse. But with that energy and moon placement comes deep instability and aimlessness that you need to hone. I feel for him.
Subscribed. Graham has a lot of great interviews. This is why youtube is great, because you can learn a lot on this site. Thank you for your contributions Graham Bensinger.
+iPartyHardcore thanks!
+Graham Bensinger Thank you Graham. I just found u today and just subscribed.
kiyonexus That's another reason why I started watching more of his videos. I really like Graham Bensinger interviews over DJ Vlad and DJ Smallz Eyez. Also it's great to see the interviewer in the shot as well instead of hiding behind the camera. All around big ups to Graham.
Check out my trick shots on my page. I only have 1 subscriber 😞
good job graham, but who cares if the no name guy "subscribed"
and that is how you conduct an interview . definitely this dude has to teach these main line news anchors how to conduct interviews especially FOX.
Agreed. Thoughtful and respectful. A class act.
He’s the best interviewer I’ve ever seen. So humble and feels no need to dominate the conversation in any way. Asks great questions and lets his guest talk without ever interrupting.
@Kasey you damn right lol lol
Favorite player of all time. The common denominator of a lot of championship teams.
Hybrid Athletix perfect analogy very true
He's kind of like the Lawrence Taylor of football. They say Taylor knew the offensive plays better than most quarterbacks, which made him a more effective linebacker. You've got to study kids....
Agreed
Yes, I mean how many 6 foot 6 players make the hall of fame because of defense and rebounding, alone?
+Nicholas Bakunin
Not on the same level, but Bill Russell, Wes Unseld, Mutombo...
Great defenders and rebounders who could help their respective team from time to time in offense.
Like your speech my friend, it takes time to learn
Marty W.
Rodman , Scottie, MJ: the best trio ever.
Rodman's work ethic is inspirational. He put in the work to develop that insane IQ. Respect.
this man here is the biggest heart I've ever seen he literally wore his heart in his sleeve every game he ever played he wasn't scared of anyone mad respect !!!!
The dedication he put towards perfecting his skill is incredible
if you're reading this comment keep your head up and have an awesome day
Aye good vibes your way too brother
+Phil Macrakin thanks g much love from cali yo if you have time give my music a listen soundcloud.com/jamesakag3n1/dont-care-james-burnett
Thanks Man, I wish the best for you too :)
james burnett Thanks I appreciate that.
Thank you
Graham is a really good interviewer, He's always so engaged in their stories and always asks great follow up questions.
Dennis has always been my hero, always saw him inside of me because I relate to him so well.
wonder if it's because pippen and jordan had history with rodman in detroit
Exactly what I was thinking. Rodman did beat up Jordan back in Detroit days
+Domini478 Exactly.
+manfred edilson Nah,.Rick Mahorn, Bill laimbeer, and John Sally were playing hard defense on Jordan so he would not come down the paint to score on them. John Sally would later play with the Bulls and was cool with Jordan and Pippen. Dennis didn't talk to any one really, he was just shy and introverted off the court.
+Starforcefighter LOL @ Rick Mahorn and Sally.
Starforcefighter it is true but sally was one of the guys that shook hands with the bulls when rest of his team walked out so he has a ticket for forgiveness. Plus he was like part time comedian or something wasnt he?
He was so unselfish to not care if he scored at all and he became a legend without scoring
Dennis is the epitome of hard work , and second ... to show you that if you live in chaos and channel it, surrounding your self and looking at a goal and are die hard to get it.... you can even though everything around you is chaotic... Dennis loved Michael so much too.... such respect for his leadership they didn't even have to talk. They just understood how to act and perform.
I really loved his game. wonderful player with so much heart and passion.
Dennis sounds like he's been eating cigars everyday since he retired.
and/or methamphetamine
Ninja Channel worddd
😆😀😀
Very disrespectful of u wtfu
Dennis is the best of the best f the hatters
I remember Steve Kerr saying on NBATV that Rodman probably could've averaged 20 points a game with ease, but he chose not to, and was in fact prouder when he had zero points. However odd a personality he might have, that's the sort of single-mindedness that only the true greats ever have. What a champ!
I appreciate your interviews. I admire the people you talk to and how you don't interrupt them.
Subscribed.
These are the types of interviews I love to see. Graham was asking Rodman questions that give us insight into how a player/person came up and succeeded. Nothing about this portion of the interview made Rodman antsy or short with his responses. It was all about showing respect. I'll definitely check out more of his interviews.
Sad to hear he didn't have a relationship with his parents
+azee1v1 right! That says a lot to me on how he's been. Always a loner and isolated and didn't know how to handle himself emotionally at times.
Easy to judge if you didnt know him, but hard not to like once you realize he’s honest and a hard worker. Even though he admits he’s a loner, I bet he’s just being honest & doesnt want to be. Sometimes hard to have conversations and relate to others, when you didnt have a normal upbringing.
@I. Wynn Wynn Who the fuck are you to judge lmao. If he doesn't want to speak to his mom and sisters it's his business. His mom showed him no affection whatsoever when he was a child, how do you expect him to have a great relationship with her now that he's an adult?
@I. Wynn Wynn From what he has said, he doesn't have relationship skills and communication wouldn't be a strong ability for him. When you don't have that kind of influence, it doesn't just happen. It's learned and developed by seeing it.
This guy's a genius man, imagine the amount of tape he watches, it took him to the point where it keeps on playing non stop, even in real game, that's why he get all those rebounds. Practice makes perfect. Dennis saw the game like he see it through a glass of water. What a scary player to play against man, give me chills down my spines. #realtalk
Rodman is the greatest and under appreciated basketball player. He understands the game greater than an other player knowing that makes him a legendary of the game.
Dennis Rodman sounds down to earth, and humble, rather talk to him than jordan or pippen.
cause you guys have known what Jordan and Pippen are off camera right? :D
Patrick Can you elaborate?
Me too
Disagreed
I would like to hang out with him
I still think that (pound for pound), "The Worm" was the greatest defensive player of all time. Rodman was around 6'-7" and led the league in total rebounding 4x and best average in rebounding 7x. Not to also mention that he had a couple seasons of averaging 18+ boards per game. His on and off the court antics didn't show it, but the dude had one the greatest basketball IQ's ever known.
+Ermac1990 Some people can't function unless they're fucked up. In high school, our top players were high every football game and with the way they played, you couldn't tell at all.
Bill Russell
I saw where Wilt Chamberlain was pissed about his magazine cover as "the greatest rebounder ever" so let's not leave him out lol. As you mentioned, defensive though...i agree, definitely one of the greatest ever!
@@shanenolan85 LOL oh you mean the dude who was 6 inches taller than all his defenders? Just LOL
When it comes to combining defense, rebounding, and overall impact on a team's winning and championships, Russell and Rodman are in a class of their own. No one else is even close
Dennis rodman is like the Rick James of the nba.
+JJ I'm Dennis Rodman! Enjoy yourself bitch! HAHAHA!
Cocaine is a hell of a drug!
Graham's interviews have been really stellar. Really good questions that evoke the best stories out of his guest. Keep it up!
+VidN00b thanks for watching!!!
I was in elementary school when the Bulls were unstoppable. I couldnt get enough of them. Loved Jordan (who didnt/doesn't) and I really liked Rodman for his play and his uniqueness (my parents not so much lol). But I do remember wondering if they ever talked much or were buddies. Now I know! Ahhh nostalgia... Thanks!
"i didnt bring energy,i think i brought just the perception of working hard" im speechless.........
Nice interview! Always had respect for rodman
+begs100 thanks!
+begs100 Dennis was crazy but a total professional.
Out of all the things that came out of his mouth over the years, nothing will ever be as cool as Dennis talking basketball. This was nice to see.
All I know is that Rodman was a TOP player in his position. The rebound master. I enjoyed watching him play for the Piston then the Bulls.
Great channel. How do you only have 29,930 subs? Anyway, I just subscribed. I like your delivery method of asking questions. I'm sure you'll reach over 1 million subs in no time. Keep up the professionalism.
I believe he's a respectful pro and a trusted teammate
I really enjoyed this interview! Dennis seems very down to earth and humble.
Great work Graham! I really like your interviews. Your questions are always well researched and interesting. Keep up the good work!
People think his game came easy, its some real genius to rebound the way he did at his size, think about it he studied tape to master rebounding ???? .. A true enigma, anybody that wants to master defensive rebounding coming up should study him , truly a legend. Again you don't have to be a scorer to be one of the Goats
Dennis is a great guy.
What a player he was.
Ball game is more than just scoring.
Well done Dennis. 👌
Thank God he's in the HOF. He gave basketball the dedication it deserves. God bless you Rodman👏✌️🏀
What an original. We love you, Rodman!
I remember seeing an interview where Bill Laimbeer was once asked who was the smartest person he ever played with and without hesitating he immediately replied, "Dennis Rodman"
I think him being apart of that Bad Boy Piston Era that gave Jordan and Pippen a very hard time early in their pursue to be champions is a good reasoning. Those feelings don't go away on both ends. And if anyone knows Dennis played a huge portion in that Jordan Rules dynasty. So him saying they never talked doesn't surprise me at all.
Best interviewer on every segment. Excellent work graham
I like the respect the interviewer extends to this all-time great, The Worm.
He was an outstanding rebounder before the Bulls. When the Pistons broke apart and they got rid of Rodman is when his attitude changed. Check is technicals before and after. He had virtually none before and he didn't dye his hair all crazy colors yet. After he found his place on the Bulls the technicals mostly cut down. He played great defensive basketball against the best. He was the best rebounder of his time and the best offensive rebounder of all time. He knew how to read where the ball was going to bounce of the rim and go so he would be there boxing out. If he didn't get the board he would pop it out of the guys hands who did. People don't realize he scored about 7 points a game taking 1 or 2 shots because of all the fouls he took down low and in the penalty your going to the line. He averaged over 10 assists 4 to 5 steals and 20 boards a game. He had nights where he had 30 something rebounds with 28 of them being offensive.
facts
wow
kind of he got away with a lot .....a lot more than most ....a lot
Raymond Armatino he never averaged more than 3.5 assist a game, never more than a single steal, really only got to the line twice a game and only about 1/3 of his rebounds came from offensive rebounds.........
He didn’t average no dam 10 assist
Rebounding and defensive genius
#Legend
adon31997 FACT
Two of the best at their profession. Dennis and Graham
Thank you for all the memories Dennis!
This is what ppl don't understand about the Bulls. They were there to do a job! Not be best friends! The league today is a big hippy love fest. Guys are too emotional. This team understood they were there to do a job. Not get in anyone's business and show up and do your job!
Liar
+S E2333 are u against emotions or something
+PinoyAbnoy what??? You clearly missed the entire point
So true man. These dudes meant business, period.
+Aidyn Bradley today's stars all want to be on the same team with their friends. Players then were never like that. They didn't let little things like "being friends" get in the way of doing the job.
The ultimate respect for the worm. It always makes me sad when he speaks to how alone he has felt all his life.
So nice seeing him doing better
You are the best interviewer that I know of out there right now at any level. It shows that you do your research, but you never speak for your interviewee. Keep it up!
+Dylan Orth I appreciate the kind words, but I have a long way to go in terms of development as an interviewer. Thanks for watching, Dylan!
As crazy as this guy is,he knows exactly what he talks when is about basketball.If you watch the 30 for 30 Bad boys you will see another example of his knowledge
smart guy. i didnt realize how he had a high IQ for the game
LOL? How tf do you think he dominated the glass at 6'6? Just by luck?
Brian Williams I think a lot of people just know Rodman was like the greatest rebounder of all time, but they don’t stop to think WHY that is. Most people probably just chalk it up to great instincts and natural ability. You don’t think he spent hours and hours and hours in a room by himself studying tape for years, studying his teammates playing styles. That’s dedication right there.
The high iq ones tend to not get all the attention. Just look at Stockton.
one of my favorite player,, the real "talk less do more" player... what a hall of famer
what an awesome interview! Well done sir.
This boy was a student of the game. A genius.
This is right! Dennis
This is how I felt, I don't need to speak to my Co-workers on a personal basic, only work related issues. 3n1
Great interview!
Subscribed, such a positive interview. Good job Graham!
Reporter talks like he has a crush on Dennis I can see in his eyes ❤️
the fact that this man pulled off an entire ed hardy fit kills me 😂😂😂
Rodman was a Machine
Such a great player & teammate....Best Rebounder of all time & one of the best defenders....72-10....Best Team Ever!!
the best defender against Shaq and never got the credit to do that,even when they ask Shaq he never admits it,loook it up
@Just a Man 0 points in the 2nd half is definitely Rodman on his usual shutdown mode
True player. Hall of famer.
Graham has the best damn interviews.
And Dennis' basketball and defense IQ is off the charts. He has an intuitive understanding of defense, where the ball is going and how other people play. Hawk eye.
1 of my favorite all time players. Truly, 1 of a kind!
First auto biography I ever read. Great read. For the record I loved pearl jam too.
thumbs up for pearl jam.
Rodman was a straight out WINNER. Made every team he was on better. Titles with 3 different teams.
Onkyo two
he has a kind heart
Best Rodman interview I've ever seen.
Rodman completed the GREATEST team ever assembled
I don't understand the criticism of Graham. These are great interviews. The subjects are engaged. He's disarming. Keep it up!
+sdpadresfan Thanks!
Awesome interview.
This interviewer got a great style, really like him
You think 10 or 15 rebounds is great these days?? Rodman used to get 35 rebounds in a game. He was like a magnet. He was the rebound master!
He sounds like beetlejuice to me lol
+Treice Anthony Kinda looks like Beetlejuice too!
Shit dude you right lol
can't believe I just realized that😂😂
Great ears, lol.
Dennis you have done a great job man what a great example of what you can do when you don't make excuses
Dennis was something bizzare in 90’s basketball, he was something special in that bulls three peat team.
Rodman was the true defender. I can't think of any current player who wants to be known for their rebounding and defence. This is why defence is lacking in today's NBA and the game has gone soft.
Tyson chandler ...deandre Jordan ... draymond green.. joakim Noah
+el fuerte Meh...all overrated barring Draymond. DJ is one of the worst liabilities I think in NBA history. When a game is close in the 4th quarter you can't play him because of his inability to shoot free throws. How can he be known then as a great defender when you can't even play him during crunch time? Plus Noah and Chandler are hardly the type of guys to shut down a player or even an entire team.
+Dieter kawhi leonard?
+Hex Devildog he's good all around lol
+slimmee22 defense wise where do u think he ranks up
Great player..we should not judge him by his lifestyle & looks..thats personal... he is the best defensive player in the 90's..
Very inspiring! Thanks
Legend. Motivated me. To work hard on the court.
