I'm sorry, but it wouldn't be a competition.

Draymond is way too mentally weak, that he would lose his s*** before tip off.

I respet Draymond and he is a fantastic utlity player, just like Rodman, but the physcality, the tricks, the mind games that Rodman played was next level.
Why so serious?

Krause was a real ****, but man, the guy made a hell of a lot of great decisions. We would all be very pleased if AK turned out the same.

Notice how much stretching the Bulls team did in the 90s every time you see them in the gym practicing they're doing stretching exercises. I think one of the big problems with today's players as they don't do enough of it I don't ever see anybody stretch enough. I used to watch Steve Nash go through stretching exercises for like 45 minutes before every game it was insane... the guy never got hurt. With all of today's sports medicine and Technology something as simple as that can make such a difference.

Yeah Draymond would have been destroyed by Dennis. Honestly I believe Rodman would’ve had Draymond and Durant tossed from a game or two if their was some Dynasty Bulls vs Warriors series.

Dennis was a freak, and I don’t mean in the cross dressing, Madonna dating, self marriage way. Dude could both physically and mentally torment competition.

This is the shot that set me as up as a Bulls fan for life. The minute the ball was passed to Paxson (before he shot it) I jumped off the couch.

So seems like without Jordan pushing him. Pippen doesn't become the HOF player.

This documentary is reminding why I'm a Bulls fan. Hopefully we are about to take the steps to be a winner again.

Imo being a HOF player takes a bunch of things to break right or a culmination of things that go right. It really is that rare. MJ probably did shape Pippen in a considerable way and thats no slight to Scottie. Scottie had the mental mindset to mold himself into that better player and the skillset to get it done.

To be honest, Rodman wouldn't have even been on Draymond anyway. He would have been on a more potent offensively player, and occasionally been on Draymond to get under his skin and keep him ineffective.

Agreed, but I think Scottie needed the push (motivation) to become the player he became.

Scottie took a lot of grief for the migraine game, particularly from fans that always downplayed his success as a means of propping up MJ (as if he needed it).....

But anyone downplaying a migraine has never truly had a migraine headache. I’ve had them since I was a kid, and they are debilitating. The double vision, the nausea, the inability to visually focus.... with a migraine, you need a cold, dark, silent room. Trying to play in an NBA game, let alone a playoff game, I can’t even imagine. I’ve played basketball or went to work “sick” and been able to more or less get through, with a migraine, forgot about it....

Agreed... that’s why threw Durant in the mix. While Pip would’ve likely covered Durant often, I’d imagine Phil would’ve put Rodman on him and sat on the bench, legs crossed, grinning, as Dennis went to work mentally destroying KD while also making every shot attempt hell.

As great as that GS team was, I don’t think they’d know what the hell to do with Rodman on KD, and Scottie and MJ taking turns on Klay and Steph.

First step is getting intelligent players who play both ends to be the primary ball handlers of the team. Second, get some mentally tough players who play both ends and who don't melt down at the end of games. This team is going nowhere with what we have now personnel wise. In fact, the team is so far far away from even competing with the top tier right now it will take years and a near complete roster turnover, starting with our guards.

People can say that nobody plays defense in today's game. Well, the teams who are still standing at the end do. So, that is just a bunch of BS. You have to play both ends hard, not just offense.

-- really, the first step is getting rid of Jimbo the Clown and hiring a real head coach.
