Dennis Rodman Was The King Of fukkery

[Mr. Jack Napier]

I would love to see Rodman play against some of today's players. Guys like Boogie & Westbrook would blow a gasket

''In the last game of the regular season,'' recalled Antonio Davis, the Pacers forward who is often guarded by Rodman, ''we got tangled up. He held my hand up over my head, and then he started to waltz with me! I couldn't believe it. At first I thought it was funny. And then I thought, 'He's mocking me!' And I got mad. Suddenly I was thinking about him, and not my game anymore. He can do that. He's smart; he'll try everything he can to throw you off. But I was prepared for him this series. I've just tried to ignore him.''

This is not easy to do. In the N.B.A. finals against Seattle two years ago, Frank Brickowski of the SuperSonics, sick of Rodman's physical tactics in the game and aware of such publicity stunts as the one in which Rodman married himself in a wedding dress, called Rodman a name that was meant to question his manhood.

Rodman smiled. ''You've got nice-looking legs,'' he said to Brickowski. ''Would you like to go out with me after the game?'' Brickowski exploded, as did his game.

One of Rodman's favorite targets is Alonzo Mourning, the Miami Heat center. Mourning has also questioned Rodman's off-the-court preferences -- although he might not have read Rodman's book about his love affair with Madonna -- and Rodman knows this. When Mourning makes a nice play against the Bulls, Rodman will pat him on the backside. It makes Mourning uncomfortable. When there is a loose ball, Rodman might stay atop Mourning for an extra beat or two, making Mourning seethe.

''Mourning tries to contain himself,'' said Steve Kerr, a Bulls guard, smiling at the thought. ''And he doesn't say anything. But you see it building and building, and finally he erupts.'' In one game, Mourning was soon whistled for two technical fouls in quick succession and was removed from the game.

''Guys suddenly forget their set patterns, they're out of position, the coaches are screaming at them but they don't hear -- they got Dennis on the mind,'' said Isiah Thomas, a teammate of Rodman's with the Pistons. ''Dennis knows there's this homophobia among a lot of players in the league. So he uses that and everything else he can. It's amazing how many guys fall for it.''

Sports of The Times; As Expected, Rodman Does What's Unexpected

Dennis would do some wild mango stuff, but the thing is the players just losing it, like Mourning. This guy is getting your best players riled up, ready to fight, while Jordan is having an easier time getting buckets.....when it is over, the bulls win and Rodman be like

This is low key one of the best threads of the year
Rodman was a living and breathing "no homo"

1998 NBA lockout:
Rodman gets married to Carmen Electra while drunk out of his mind in Vegas... Then he wakes up in the morning and sees a ring on his finger... Asks what the fukk happened... Demands an annulment.
(All that within a few hours).
Letterman, Leno and all the talk show hosts had a field day with that shyt

 

[superunknown23]

You know a mafukka is good when he just says fukk practice and nobody gets pissed, fines or suspends him. They was like fukk dat we need them 15-20 boards a night.

It was only the Bulls who tolerated that shyt though. The Spurs couldn't handle him and traded him for Will Perdue!
Sean Elliott and D-Rob even said that it was a fair trade because Rodman was too much of a distraction.
They must have been real jealous seeing him threepeat with the Bulls

Can someone explain what the fukk worm was doing in this gif?

Man...young heads probably don't even realize the inherent fukkery of this marriage. Like...imagine if Ndamukong Suh up and married Kat Dennings shot-gun style in Vegas out of nowhere. Except that Suh is on the most popular/successful sports team in the world, playing with the worlds most popular athlete, and is outside sports-famous for his eccentricities as opposed to just being a sports-famous for skills/buffoonery.

And Carmen? Carmen Electra was a bonafide sex-symbol at this time, had a Baywatch run, had taken over Jenny McCarthy's (quite popular) MTV Singled Out show. It's kinda hard to really make a comparison for her because we don't have a solid Electra/McCarthy *type* of celebrity right now, but they were on some tag-team former-playboy-thots turned semi-respectable type of shyt. It's like what people have been saying about 90's culture in this thread, it was just a different time, and a girl like her could get on.

People will say Kendra/Hank, but Hank was never anywhere near as known to the public as Dennis was. Khloe/Lamar...neither had that specific fukkery-based image (At the time ) to really make that work either.

I always say Charles Barkley and Dennis Rodman are the two most unique players I've ever watched in my lifetime.

Low key, I think Dennis could've easily put up 15-16 ppg if he wanted to.His J/3pt shooting wasn't that bad....he just didn't give a fukk.


I remember at the end of Bulls games, he'd go into Court Jester mode( entertaining the crowd in a blow out), and just start nailing 3's.


Shyt used to have me



Even tho he was such a phenomenal defender/rebounder, I think he still had a lot of untapped potential as an offensive player.


I mean, dude would just launch 3's effortlessly, with a

look on his face.Like it didn't mean shyt to him.

Been trying to tell people, he didn't score because he couldn't. He didn't have to.

Watch his college highlights if you can find any. Dude was averaging 25 & 15. Even early in his Pistons career he had offense. once the rebounds started drawing headlines it hecame his signature.

Some dude in another thread said Draymond Green is already a better player than Worm

Well some dude is a fukking idiot. Rodman was one of the most versatile defensive players in league history. And a Top 5 rebounder all-time. I missed the part where Draymond's credentials stack up already.

Crazy shyt is, a few dudes agreed with him.
