In there Primes who was the better player? I ask this question on another forum and many people said Wallace which surprised me. Not saying Wallace was a bum, he was very good but Rodman to me was a "rare" talent on the court.

Also another question I ask since Wallace is now retired, is he a future Hall of Famer?

Rodman because he can guard perimeter players too like Bird, Jordan, etc. as well, and can practically do everything Ben can do but a bit better, plus he was a better rebounder and he had a bit more of an offensive game than Ben. But, mann Ben in his prime was :noah: imo the dude had the most swag when he blocked a shot, the way he would swat the shyt out of the ball was :wow:

rodman to me, and its not even close... rodman had a better offensive game, was actually a good on ball defender (something i think ben was never good at) and arguably the best rebounder of all time. ben was a better shot blocker.

It's not even close. But why don't people think Rodman couldn't score? He could score when he wanted too, he had great hands, court awareness, a soft touch and could finish anywhere around the basket. He just didn't GAF.
