Mj: I'll score the bucket.
Pip: I'll guard the best guy.
Dennis: I'll get the ball.
Nuff said. Simple and easy to remember. Lol
Sohrob Ganjbaksh scary thing is all 3 can guard the best guy
elai314 scarier is that all three can do all three things. Rodman wasn’t a scorer per say but he wasn’t a guy that would blow a layup and had a decent jump shot that was very consistent. He could make a jump shot consistently he just didn’t TAKE it consistently
alp21188 Rodman did not have a jump shot sorry. He was a good finisher around the rim, and an underrated passer, and ball handler for his position, but that was it. Jump shots, and free throws were not his forte. Shawn Kemp had a jumpshot nobody remembers, and one of the best bigs at the free throw line.
That’s why they where the best dynasty ever, but that doesn’t mean MJ is the Goat. He was the best player of the best dynasty.
Never seen anyone played with passion the way Rodman did. Dude was an animal for the ball
He found his life inside the ball, outside... he was close to suicide.
@@montazownianr1 well put
Montażownia nr1 deep
Montażownia nr1 Nah That’s was only once and he never really went to Bulls practice that much. He partied and was wild but they all respected him because of what he did when he showed up
Kevin Garnett
Scottie didn’t know what Rodman was gonna say about him 😂😂😂😂😂😂 the nerves were real
Sure don't think it's nerves. More like he was humble and getting ready for some big time praise.
5:34 Scottie with the nervous smile 💀
😂😂😂
I love Rodman... he's a tortured soul but you can tell he's a very caring, loving human being, just been through the ringer in life
Yeah.. and real.
Agreed. Very misunderstood. He replied to me once on Twitter. I admire him, because he just goes and be himself. Very authentic person.
You can tell that from an interview? Cool!
Grill Buster it’s true. Rodman’s childhood was really rough. He’s was shot at, pinned up against a tree with a shotgun, dealt with constant racial slurs, neglected as someone who just wanted to be loved. All Dennis ever wanted was to fit in. And very few people ever gave him that opportunity. He’s been battling demons his entire life, so he tries his hardest to be happy. And he does that by just being free. Dennis is a very caring and loving person. He knows how it feels to not be cared about. And he wouldn’t wish that on anybody. People might look at the tattoos, piercings, clothing and colored hair as off-putting. But if you actually get to know him, he’s one of the nicest people you can meet.
@@Vito_Caligiuri this actually explains why he is friends with Kim Jung-un. I imagine he they found similarities in that regard.
Seem like Scottie was nervous lol about what Dennis was about to say about him lol
😂🤣😭 Scottie had a pretty clean rep tho I thought
James Taylor i saw that
Durkio B bullshit Scottie was a nasty man too 😂😂😂😂
The public was too! Lol!!
Joel Johnson LoL KD is not a point forward. Tmac was mostly a SG
Thank you Rodman for giving Scottie his recognition!
Too bad we didn't see Bill Russell. He had that fire & desire too.
I couldn't agree more. Scottie is my favorite player of all time. Everyone loves MJ but Scottie is my guy. Maximum effort on both ends of the floor.
The sad part is that nobody gives Dennis the recognition he deserves. All they talk about is about his life outside the court.
MANCHESTER UNITED F.C what is the point of this message? I love soccer too but I will not go on a soccer video and boast how great another sport is and why!
@M boooooring
Second 3-peat doesn't happen without him, no question, THE board man
Yeah there is a debate that days he was a finals mvp in one of those years
Rodman was a beast but the second 3 peat still would of happen.
@@williejones178 then why did they add him? Jordan and Pippen lost to Shaq and Penny
It would happen wo him for sure but idk about 72-10
Nah they really needed him. Chicago always had a good 4 wit Oakley and Horace Grant. Chicago and Detroit were the first teams to win without a dominant center historically
scottie sitting there thinking "man i hope this dude doesnt say anything crazy!"
PoonDestruction 😂😂😂 you already know 😭😭
0:29
Barely 30 seconds in and we get our first spicy quote from the video. What a guy 💯
Not Kevin Durant, aye bro that pic is funny AF!!😂😂
Not Kevin Durant Dwight Howard joined the... never mind
😂😂I caught that. Rodman kept it 💯
Board man got 5 rings... and paid
MrBrenman21 no
@@blocblackboyblack9226 oh does he need to listen to tekashi 69 to be cool? Idiot lol
Ye
Blocblackboy Black. Yes.
Lodogg 3323 no
Pippen is one of the most underated players in history
killa bubbs25 umm. No hes not...
Cedric. uhhhh yeah he is,yeah mj’s the goat but if he didn’t have pippen he would be ringless.if not ringless then 1 or so rings not 6.
CaughtYouSleep not saying you’re wrong but how do you know what he meant?
Underrated? When? He's known as the best one-man wrecking crew on defense. All the players he's played with and played against about that. That's not including the fans and the media. Heck Kobe even analyzed his defense. Go watch Kobe's "Attention to Detail".
Brave Fart Doesn’t mean he’s not one of the most UR. He is
So right. To hear Pippen with names Magic, Bird, Drexler, Durant. Thank you Rodman. You know whassup
Thank you Dennis for your contributions to the NBA and saving America from nuclear warfare with North Korea
J B - Word!
Facts
... and not necessarily in that order.
Har, har.
Nervous LOL.
Scottie was a bad boy...
Those Bulls with Rodman were defensive monsters.
Jordan, Pippen and Rodman were all first team defenders. Rodman could anticipate where the bricks would bounce and then jump early in anticipation, outrebounding the other team. No one today plays like him.
Harper was on that squad too, that team was unfair defensively
@@Lodogg
Absolutely true.
Lodogg 3323 yea u dont see taht that much in todays nba fck scoring. These guys played both ends and did they job well
So who would win between them and Golden State?
This was needed!! Makes me happy to see Scottie and Dennis together
Lol but they are on television
yeah.. those were the days.
batman, superman and rodman..
If you came up with that i salute, cuz i never heard that before
@@ske2376 Yeah, I've seen it in other advertisements on NBA on NBC. It was quite funny, Jordan as Superman, Pippen as Batman and then there was Rodman. During that time, it was probably the greatest team assembled.
@@GeneralBulldog54 oh, then that person deserves a raise
SKE that was what we called them back then.
Im 22 i wasnt even born when rodman signed with bulls
I still miss this team. everybody who is old enough to watch them live in their prime should feel blessed.
U never realize how good and gr8 things are until u look back crazy 25 yrs ago seems like yesterday
You're not the only one. I think we all miss this team of Jordan, Pippen and Rodman
The only regular season game I was able to watch of this team was Bulls vs Heat. We didnt have cable and it was so rare for our local channels to show NBA games back then, I remember sneaking into my cousins place and watching the game being clueless as to what was going on. My grade school brain knew that Bulls was the best but I couldnt believe that they were going into the half down 6. When the Bulls won that game I felt that my belief that nobody can ever beat them skyrocketted to idolizing the whole team... Good times
Watch their Lakers comeback game. Down 25 and still win it from that same season. They as people called it turned the Doberman defense loose the second half and chewed up the Lakers like they were a chew toy.
Scottie Pippen is my favorite player of all time. I loved watching him. The perfect 2 way player with size and speed. Took joy in locking up the best player on the other team. And he could score. A player like Scottie is very rare in the league.
The team thought Pippen had more potential than MJ.
And then MJ took that personally.
Lol Scottie wasn’t always on the best player he didn’t guard centers and he didn’t guard the quicker shiftier guards like Kobe Mitch Eddie Clyde grant hill spreewelll etc that was mjs job
Best Decision to get the best defender and rebounder of all time!!!
Along with the best scorer and player of all time.
*THE GOAT of Rebounding & THE GOAT of Defense* 🔥🔥🔥
Bill Russell would disagree
Wilt chamberlain had 56 rebounds in a game against Bill Russell . Stop it . Wilt is so disrespected it’s disgusting
About36GREEKS I was more so talking about the greatest defender part, but yeah wilt was a better board/bucket getter
It's nice to see these two together! Now we just need to get MJ with these two and i'll be really happy.
not gonna happen. ESPN can't pay enough for MJ to come... and MJ doesn't need any media attention, he already has too much..
I’m your 23rd like... woot woot!!!
Lodogg 3323 I dig it lol
@@ducksseason dont forget MJ will be on the The last Dance documentary coming up next year 2020 . 🏀💯
@@bgplata24 I can not forget because I never knew in the first place.. Lol now I know
“Between taxes and living...” Man I heard that.
I love how Dennis Rodman is always unapologeticallly non-PC. "We would be at woodstock smoking it up" lol my guy!
Rodman was a rebound god. imagine someone in todays game 6'7-6'8 averaging 15 boards a game against 7 ft centers all game long
He’d likely be getting clowned for not being able to shoot.
TheRealH2dut True af like Andre Roberson or something
Draymond ? 😂🌚
Jordan had said that if rodman would shoot more he would score 20 or better a game.
@@user-ux8ge8yp7b Draymond is just inconsistent.
Greatest Defender of all Time. Point blank. Period.
Dont get carried away
*THE GOAT of Rebounding & THE GOAT of Defense* 🔥🔥🔥
Hakeem
mm he’s not getting carried away the man locked down Shaq
You can say that bs oh he was rookie but rookie Shaq is still better than 85% of centers in their prime
Scottie Pippen most underrated player of all time easily. And the most disrespectful dunk on Ewing of all time literally.
How is he underrated
@@1990758 nobody considers him the goat forward. He's better than TD imo
@Melo Bryant yeah that's classic
Actually the most underrated forward of all time imo, was Dominique Wilkins, imagine if he had another superstar alongside him on those Atlanta teams,
@@theking0ne327 Scottie's whole career is based on Jordan that's how underrated he is.
First time hearing Rodman, he is not crazy. He is actually making sense
Dennis rodmans the only guy who can have his nails painted, hair coloured and where those glasses and still be the scariest dude in the room
Finally ESPN puts out a good interview!!
Watching Dennis Rodman highlights will give you chills he played the game so hard
Best rebounder of all time. What a legend. He was the perfect man for Jordan and the bulls to be successful. He put his body on the line and didn't need to score 15 points per game to know he was starting every game. How things have changed.
The key word is "need".
@@jasondyrkacz8270 He wouldn't 'need' to play any different in today's game either. A famous coach once said your best starting 5 should always include a non scoring defense oriented player or an offense facilitating defensive player.
Dennis forever humble!! One of the coolest guys I ever met in the league.
I am a big fan of Dennis Rodman, he made the 2nd 3peat even more fun to watch. Greatest small foward there ever was.
Power forward u mean huh😎
Da Rob&Nea Show he was a small forward the first half of his career. He played power forward the second half of it.
@@Renegade-jk4ux gotcha😎
Because Lebron, KD, Larry Bird, The Truth and Dr J all played tennis, right?
Superman, Batman and Rodman
........verses The Dream, Clyde the Glyde and Sir Charles.
Love to hear Dennis speak honestly and from the heart, it offsets all the BS that surrounded his life.
“Was there anything you put them through that you’re like I can’t believe I did that?”
Rodman: “....”
Pippen: “YES.”
When Pippen said "YES" I laughed so hard
😂😂😂😂
Scottie had to let it be known. With the quickness
Scottie Pippen is my favorite player of all time. I loved watching him. The perfect 2 way player with size and speed. Took joy in locking up the best player on the other team. I used a lot of his moves in my own basketball career. A player like Scottie is very rare in the league.
Rodman a beast he wore 91 that's my year I was born. Luv this killer
Then you know nothing Jon Snow...
They retired 10 that's why they gave him 9+1=10
I love rodman one of the bets defenders of all time and an innovator of the game and man that rebounding ability.
The best ever crew forever, friends forever! World never, never, never forgot u guy's! 😎 Chicago defens! And I still have probably all but probably not all posters and newspaper clippings and Dennis cards that went to Poland and I imitated him playing basketball in almost everything. Those were the days, replay is needed!
Pippen is the best perimeter defender of all time.
jason high Kawhi or the glove imo
Jordan
jason high kawhi
mm jordan didn't play the wing
@@anujr9293
Love Kuwahi great defender, about as close to Scottie as there's been. Scottie could literally cover 2/3 of the half court and was all over the court when he took over. Kuwahi is great on ball and blind side defender. But til this day I have not seen a player cover as much ground as Scottie could not just his opponent in front of him.
Scottie was always my favorite player. Sure Jordan is the greatest of all time... but I loved Scottie’s Scillz. Dude was smooth, gentle touch finger rolls, nice gliding dunks, great on defense and could pass with ease. Man, the 90’s were a great time for basketball. Jordan, Pippen and Rodman is the best trio of all time... period.
I would say Magic , Worthy and Kareem in 1985 would compare.
Years later I am still stunned with how superbly the trio worked
leyenda61 they were fucking good. As far as basketball goes Rodman would be amazing for any team. He plays crazy defense grabs rebounds and doesn’t demand a lot of shots. Super easy to fit in
@@willhopson1277 i get mad when sports personalities hint that Rodman was more or less an asterisk, like folks are doing a favot by mentioning him. I learned so much of my in-the-paint defensive & offensive game from studying him
80s-90s are definitely tougher
Physically and Emotionally
Nah the griefing from social media would've definitely stopped the Bulls from a getting two 3 pats the way that they did.
@@daniell8433 lmao no if Bron can win with Social Media then they can win
This team was just special. 20+ years later and they are still my favorite story in Basketball
Rachel Nichols is giggling in this entire interview with the Worm and Pip.. she looked very excited..
Dennis out here sus asf 😂
ryanmathelier he don’t look hay today but sometimes he be looking sus like Dwight Dwight stuff was faked but he still suspect
nah dennis is fine u just insecure
He’s the gayest straight man, could be BI 🤔
He can do as he pleases.... Live your life guy.... usually the suspicious have radars for the "sus"....takes one to know one or thoroughly recognize what seems familiar to the accuser 😉
@@Tre_Ason_Number7 hahah got eeeem
Two fine, humble gentlemen. They just get better over time. Great piece.
I love this two guys, nice to watch watch this interview all over again.
4:58 Dennis Rodman signature rebound.. I used to copy this exact move...
Even Rodman was an eccentric guy on the Bulls, he did his job superbly as a rebounder, defensive anchor and enforcer for his team that resulted in 3 championships.
Dennis and Scottie true legends of my Chicago Bulls. Great times in my teens buzzing with the amazing battles on the court to get those 6 🏀🏅🏆🏀🏅🏆🏀🏅🏆🏀🏅🏆🏀🏅🏆🏀🏅🏆 rings and the fabulous season 72-10 well done
dennis and scotty are like graceful gazelles running at full tilt when on a fastbreak. just so nice to lok at.
Rodman was a great asset to our team. He was a beast!
This 2 guys (rodman and pippen) can wreck havoc on this modern nba style of game. GSW has Green and he is like a superstar and became a defensive player of the year! Imagine this 2 threats if unleashed in todays nba?
These guys were phenomenal together in the 90's. Absolutely spectacular
You can just see how much they adore and respect each other especially Dennis
When I saw those 2 together, I wish MJ was there too!
Ikr
For real.. I miss it.
Master J all three will be there some day!
Rodman is simply a perfect model of overcoming adversity
I agree, he has been extremely strong and firm. He really made it.
Him and mike Tyson
Nice to see and hear such respect from Dennis to Scottie.
This is great, how quickly we can judge people, but true talent is what speaks
Bruh Scottie's voice is SOOOooo Deep my 12's 📢 sound like a monster is in my 🤬'n car!!!
Ha ha those kicker solo barics with the Scottie bass tape
😂😂😅
@Melo Bryant ha ha Andre in the mix.
😂😂
MJ, Pippen, and Rodman would take any 3 from today! Hands down, no questions, and it wouldn’t pretty pretty!
Kevin B the only three that would stand a chance would be LeBron, KD, and Steph.
Mister Anderson defense win titles!! MJ, Pippen and Rodman had the best defense.
Very cool that Rodman paid homage to Scottie. Calling MJ and Scottie the greatest 1-2 combo of all time. I would agree with that as well. 6-0 in the NBA Finals together is all that needs to be said. They never lost a championship together. Amazing!!!!!
What a brilliant interviewer! Kept the conversation moving and offered insightful follow-ups.
Your former Piston teammate, legend Isaiah Thomas, got emotional when he talked about the time you were having some issues while playing against the Bulls. How did you feel when you watched it? Dennis Rodman: Well, Isaiah was more as a big brother, was more as a mentor to me, than anybody. He would leave his house, his family, in the middle of the night to come take care of me. He knew that I wasn’t too bright, as far as living a life of NBA player. He took the time out, like Chuck Daly did. They took their time out to just embrace me and said, ‘Well, he’s not smart enough to understand what he’s into, what he’s going to get into.’ He’s been on my side from day one. The things I said about Larry Bird in the ’87 playoff series, he took all the heat for me, which I didn’t know then, and he pretty much saved my career at that time. I think that he feels a love for me that he knows the ups and downs I’ve been through. He just feels that I’m part of his family; his kids and his wife, they just believe in me, and he’s just been that same emotional person to me, and I respect that from him.
Let’s be honest though, if Rodman couldn’t play basketball Daly wouldn’t have been his father figure.
Give Rodman credit for his life.
True statement
This is soooo nice to watch, upload the whole show will ya!
Rodman was ahead of his time, plays the game of life as tough as he played the game... Not a single f*** given when it comes to speaking his mind/and playing the right way. Massive respect, amazing basketball player.
Rachel Nichols talks... A lot... But, it seems like she has been "in the know" for a long time. I can respect someone that has history with the players in the sport that they report on.
Atleast she better than Molly... Even tho that ain't hard..
She's been covering the NBA since 1991. She knows her stuff. Also even if a bit annoying at times, she never asked trap questions, and gets a lot of respect, and more 1on1 interviews with NBA players than anyone.
ΒΞΔΝ Naw Nichols got her start in the mid 90's here in my area of South Florida. In 96 she became the beat writer for the Washington Capitals. I know this because in 96 The Florida Panthers had that crazy "rat pack" Cinderella season that took them all the way to The Stanley Cup Finals. I was like 12 back then, and remember Florida had a couple of feisty matches against the Capitals that season. She covered some of those games. Rachel was a spring chicken back then, and very easy to crush on. 😉
Anyway, she joined ESPN in 2004 where she did a little bit of everything. She left, and returned in 2016, where she has been doing "The Jump" ever since. She had about 3 years of solid NBA experience under her belt.
Yeah her a Suzy Colber and Linda Kohn for ESPN really know their stuff and aren't just fluff camera girls. Actual sports women.
I’m sure she’s “in the know” in a few ways...
Shaq had a post on IG not too long ago with him, Kareem, Magic, Kobe, and LBJ on the Lakers asking who could beat his team. One of the lineups I picked was Manu Ginobili, Kawhi Leonard, David Robinson, Tim Duncan, and Dennis Rodman from the Spurs.
so much respect between these 2 guys, love it!
I was in high school in those years they fought it out. MJ was my hero on the court but Rodman’s tenacity for rebounding (like Sir Charles) was an example as was Pippen’s defense. Both amazing players. I even love Rodman more for being himself in that environment.
"We can absorb this lunatic better than anyone else" lol

BEST defender in history. Early on in Detroit he could/would depend positions 1-3 ... Latter career he could defend 4-5 at 6'7. He looks healthy again. Salute
Very kind and sweet words for Scottie, and it's true.
Soy dominicano y dennis rodman era y mi idolo gracias por tanto momento lindo en el deportes
Is crazy to think that in those days teamates didn't even talk to each other, and sad in a way that thet can't sit together often and look back
Dennis is still as bad as he wanna be and we love him for it.
Takes me back. Awesome clip guys!!👍👍👍
LOL, "was there anything you put them through, that i can't believe i did that?" Dennis: well... Pippen: YES!
I loved watching him drive Malone up a wall!!!
Rodman was a beast....didnt back dwn 2 no 1
Love hearing Rodman talk. What a legend.
How many peoples are just soo happy for DR seeing him so calm and well spoken in this video? Looks like he has overcome a lot of his demons.Glory be.
Dennis is one of my favorite players. In his honor, I think I’m going to make an 6’8 210lbs Glass-Cleaning Lockdown on 2K lol 😂
They had the 3 best defensive players on the same team... not fair.
Pipin and Rodman were huge. Alot of respect between these two.
Loving the comrades looking back so many years.
The trip part about it phil never tripped on rodman when he was acting out...
so similar to AB to the Patriots situation. The only team that could handle the guy and put him in his place
Not really alike... dennis had chuck daly who could tame him before the bulls!!!
Accurate.
Lol um it’s way too early to say that but we’ll see
Lot of respect for each other.
Those two respect each other professionally on the court. Best team 96 - 98 NBA era.
There will likely be another Curry, Durant, Kylie, Kawhi, etc........ there will NEVER be another Dennis Rodman.
Draymond green
How many Durants was there before?
Kylie?
trajan hercules Gervin is 6-7, Durant is a 7footer. Durant is a way better shooter.
trajan hercules Durant is close to a 7 footer, he only has declared he is 6-9 because he doesn‘t wanted to do bigman stuff. It‘s not about how many points you score in a game, it‘s about how you do it.
Look how much taller Scottie clearly is than Dennis. The Worm was truly 1 of 1. He will never be duplicated.
What a journey of the bulls 90's n denise Rodman he play like no joke!!!
One of the greatest rebounders of all time. One of the most versatile players of all time. Dr and Sp.
I understand why. Rodman tried to injure Pippen in the 1991 playoffs. And told Pippen "we don't want that fa***t sh*t here"
mars2b is that true ?
Wait what?
@@JJJ20999 yep it's true. Look it up. In game 3 he pushed Pippen in the back while he was in the air for a layup. And Rodman screamed it at him while he was on the floor. A lot of the Pistons called Pippen "soft" to put it mildly
I musta missed something, why would he tell him that? I believe you cuz I saw it but what do you mean?
Really? Weird how he is now and was saying that to Pippen back then xD
I used to collect Scottie Pippen basketball cards... I still have them all :)
Eduardo Rojas I still have mine too and my plaques 😃
This was a good piece.
Great interview love these guys!
