Let's be honest, you're about the only Pistons fan on this board who shows any sense.

:manny:
I'm not gone let you get that off:yeshrug: You my guy but you can't be disrespecting the homies. A lot of them know their shyt, they just allow biases to get involved. Draymond has always had a game that will be underappreciated, and that's been since he was a chubby kid hooping at Saginaw High when I first saw him.

So why didn’t Rodman get more chances at it. All he’s known for in that series is tossing his shoes off on The bench.


Robinson even during film and practice that you can come down and help against Dream. The man was asking for help but never received it

He did receive help. How you think Horry and the rest of the shooters got 20+ in that game 6? What kind of dumb logic is this anyway?

YOU MISSED SOMETHING


:devil:
:evil:
I didn't miss anything.

Rodman did his damn best to sabotage the Spurs because he didn't understand nor did he want to buy into the concept of how they operated. He wanted to do things his own way. He wanted to act like a fool and expect there to be no consequences. This nonsense about not putting your best defensive player on the other team's best offensive player during the first half is only him blatantly lying to save face. You're only further exposing your lack of knowledge (or you complete and utter dishonesty) acting like Rodman didn't defend the likes of MJ, Shaq, Worthy, Drexler etc in the first half of games when he played under both Daly and Phil.

Because of his big ass personality Yall overrated the fukk out of Rodman. He was a great athlete, terrific rebounder. But didn’t have the versatility of Draymond or Physical dominance of Big Ben

Rodman defense is the most overrated thing in the history of the nba
I don’t think he was the same defender in Chicago as he was during his prime Pistons years. How was his defense in Detroit overrated? He was considered the best man to man defender in the league and then as he aged his core strength allowed him to guard centers in the post all along being the best rebounder in the league

:mjlol:
Tell me you was born when Back That azz up came out without telling me.

Rodman and "Versatile"
Draymond avg the same pts for their careers and Draymond put up way more shots.

Offensively their games are a WHOLE lot closer than you young guys think. Stats back it up too.

Rodman was a baller. Very athletic. A straight up attack dog on defense. Do I need to talk about the rebounding?

Born in 80s. Grew up Pistons fan. So I grew up watching Rodman and Ben. Green from Saginaw went to MSU. Know all three players very well. If Draymond was any other team could avg way more points. He actually has an offensive game unlike Ben and Rodman. Used to be a decent shooter and has playmaking skills

I would start Ben bench Rodman cut dray
But I could see why dray would start in some cases, but I think Ben is the better defender and athlete than Rodman and dray
