“Michael didn’t beat us. Rodman did”. Please don’t let these 24 year olds rewrite history like Worm to CHI wasn’t a monumental pick up. First Team All Defense and rebounding champ when CHI got him. SA just let him go bc they were sick of his shit.
Rodman mentioned in his biography that his refusal to guard Dream (bc he was tired of not being appreciated/respected while still always being asked to bail that defense out) at the request of Robinson and the coaches in that 95 SA-HOU series where Dream cooked Robinson and sent SA home was when SA finally washed their hands of him.
In an era where the final scores of playoff games were 88-83, a player who was singlehandedly manufacturing 17 possessions for his team with his rebounding was incredibly valuable. Don’t let them rewrite history.
I snuck off to Costco to grab some stuff on my lunch. As I’m leaving, the older Latina lady checking receipt looks at my stuff and asks me how much the oxtails were. I tell her. She leans in and whispers “they were cheaper before white people found out about them”. 😂😂😂
