U do know Dennis was disruptive to every team he played on right?

do Dennis have the right to shyt on David Robinson?

He was so disruptive that he won 5 championships :mjgrin:

so disruptive the pistons traded adrian dantley so that rodman could have a bigger role on the etam :mjlol:

d rob had a reputation for being soft and rodman was a champion at this point so he knew what it took to win. So drob crying about guarding dream wasn't going to win any titles for the spurs.

bulls dont 3 peat without dennis

Honestly this year draymon could've changed peoples opinion on hin. The warriore are missing roughly 80 points a game with no kd, steph and klay and draymon has been absolute garbsge all year. No impact on winning at all. His numberd are DOWN across the board which mean his impact is predicated on the personnel on his team.

Dennis led the league in rebounding in Detroit, San Antonio and Chicago which means he can impact any team in a positive way while green simply cannot. What rodman brings to the game can be benefecial everywhere. Green is nothing but a loud mouth with delusions of grandeur about his standing in the nba as a player

Spurs Glad to Be Rid of Rodman

"It was addition by subtraction just to have him out of town," said Spurs general manager Gregg Popovich, adding that only "four or five" teams expressed interest in Rodman. "We wouldn't have had a chance to win a championship, in my opinion, with him in the mix, for a myriad of reasons.

But this deal obviously was not about what Perdue could do for the Spurs as much as what Rodman had done: skip practices, miss buses, knock teammates, feud with coach Bob Hill, take his sneakers off before the end of the game, etc., etc., etc. Rodman's most recent eruption was over his $2.5 million salary, although nothing immediate could be done about it under the limitations set by the new collective-bargaining agreement. At least, not what Rodman had in mind, like about a $3.5 million raise. "He said he wasn't coming to camp unless we gave him more money," Popovich said

SPURS' MISSING MAN NOT MISSED

"It's the key part of the season, and I felt he let us down. Playoffs come and he's talking about money. That's not the time for that. After Game 4 against Houston, he's late for practice. What he doesn't understand is if you miss practice all year long, I don't care if you really did oversleep. But he doesn't understand, he says things just happen"

"There's more to being on a team than rebounding or scoring. Being on a team means being on time, being part of what everyone is doing, not when it counts separating yourself, counting yourself different. That's not being a team player. Dennis is not like any teammate, any person I've ever seen. He draws the line in the sand and says, `I'll play by my own rules.' He couldn't have been that way in Detroit because they couldn't have won if he was. And now the lines are drawn in technicolor.

"It was a zoo last year," said Robinson. "We're a basketball team again."

Rivers says he now knows he was wrong. "It's none of anyone's business what he did off the court as long as he came to play. The problem is Dennis doesn't always show up. The biggest game of the year, Game 5 against Houston and he's missing practice, he's complaining about management. That's not smart. "I always thought he was a guy who did different things, so you shouldn't make more of it than he is. I thought he did all that stuff to make money, for marketing, that he wanted attention. But after being here, I'm not sure it was because he couldn't help himself."



Doesn't sound like a player who is impacting teams positively in any situation.

Man I’d take Rodman over Draymond all day. The 2010-12 Celtics couldn’t rebound for shyt. Rebounds wins game. Give me Rodman all day.

2 years with dennis
1 wcf finals appearance
Drob wins mvp

Sounds positive 2 me :mjgrin:

so positive that the organization hated his guts, sure. Dennis was fortunate to play on teams led by superstars who masked his deficiencies his entire career. He would implode in a circumstance like the '20 Warriors with no one to check him.

You won't apply this to Draymond in the 2 years he started pre KD, where the Warriors win 67-73 games with a title and a Finals appearance, Curry b2b MVPs. Even though he did way more to help those teams.

The same posters praise and salute Rodman will hate on Draymond Green. For the life of me I don't understand that shyt.

You should have focused more on this. As @JackRoss likes to say, "name names".

Establish the basis of hypocrisy, identify the hypocrites.

Instead you go on to try to make the case that Dray is a better player than Rodman.

The premise suggests it will highlight others favoritism, but the paper only displays your own.

Dennis Rodman's career regular season stats: 7.3 PPG / 13.1 RPG / 1.8 APG / 0.7 SPG / 0.6 BPG / 52.1% FG / 23.1% 3FG / 58.4% FT / 31.7 MPG
Dennis Rodman's career playoffs stats: 6.4 PPG / 9.9 RPG / 1.2 APG / 0.6 SPG / 0.7 BPG / 49% FG / 14.9% 3FG / 54% FT / 28.3 MPG

Draymond Green's career regular season stats : 9 PPG / 6.9 RPG / 5 APG / 1.4 SPG / 1.1 BPG / 43.5% FG / 31.9% 3FG / 71% FT / 28.1 MPG
Draymond Green's career playoffs stats : 12.5 PPG / 9.3 RPG / 6.1 APG / 1.6 SPG / 1.5 BPG / 44.5% FG / 31.5% 3FG / 73.7% FT / 35.6 MPG

One player's stats and playing time rose significantly during the postseason while another one took a significant dive, let's talk about it :whistle:

Dennis Rodman was 1x All-Defensive 2nd team & 1x All-Defensive 1st team for his 2 years in San Antonio (while also leading the league in rebounding both years) and still got traded for fukking Will Perdue :mjlol: Imagine the reaction if Draymond got traded for Alex Len or John Henson (both players better than Perdue) :laff:
