- For the second year in a row, the Pistons led the league in least points allowed and Rodman won another DPOY. After Dominique had a 32-point performance in Game 1 to give the Hawks a 1-0 lead, Rodman stepped up his defense and Nique struggled for the rest of the series.
In Game 2, Rodman did a great job of pushing Wilkins away from the basket, when he tried to get low post position, and denying him the catch off the ball. Other times, Dominique would hold the ball for too long when isolated against Rodman. This allowed other Pistons to easily double team Dominique and force him to give up the ball. Nique didn't attempt many shots on Rodman as a result and only scored on him twice along with drawing just one foul on Dennis.

Dennis Rodman is the only person that could guard every position on the court for a long period and succeeded doing it.
TOP 5 GREATEST DEFENDERS EVER
Dennis Rodman can put the clamps on anyone. MJ, Shaq, Hakeem, & etc.
not larry bird
Rodman never put the clamps on the Dream.

Hakeem absolutely abused the bad boy pistons front line. 37 and 25 in this game.
He didn't shut him Down they double and triple teamed him they even say it in the video
"Secret of this game, is that you never, ever take your eyes from the ball".
Rodman knew the secret)
Thank you, Chuck Daily
It wasn’t just Dennis I see a lot of doubling and swarming on Dominique good strategy
You are right. As anybody can see Detroit has also Nique rules not only Jordan rules.
The Pistons were a grit and grind team. Dennis makes Dominique work but he ain't locking him down especially in game 1 where he scored 32pts. That is why if Dominique can still score with this type of defense, why can't Lebron as the haters say he can't? Smh
😆😆 smh Rodman was a fricking genius… he’d mar the game for opponents. He just made the game ugly for the other team. Legendary!
He can't shut down Dominique lol its double and triple teams that's stopping him
Lol a Wilkins fan can't accept😂😂
@@khanhorngaming1868 no you probably never seen them play against each other and that was after surgery if he could give Rodman numbers scottie is not a problem 👌
By 1991, the Hawks inept FRONT OFFICE had destroyed a once GREAT franchise that was a game away from taking out Larry Bird and the Celtics in one of the great playoff games of all-time. Sad to watch. Almost as sad as the time the Hawks traded away their franchise player for Danny "Brittle Knees" Manning. They had a team with Dominique that could have gone to the FINALS against the Rockets.
3:09 how you American speaking people call that? Sleight of whole body?
What a fluid move and anticipation, crazy.
Wow what happened to the hate vids on lebron?
not in the stats but so efficient !!
Dou you have full video of any macht of this series, especially the first?
Unfortunately it appears the Game 1 I found on CZcams has now been removed.

@@sportsentertainmentcomputi2979 Thank you !
i think that NTJ is former NBA player
Looks like double and triple teams 2 me
The replay footage in 1991 was lousy I’m surprised TV networks went this long without having such awesome high DEF footage like today’s professional sports.
when Rodman still was a normal person and not a joke of himself.
It seems to me Wilkins wasn't in his best shape; he looks like he lacks some energy in his legs. Detroit has also clearly some Nique rules. I've always thought Wilkins should have used his unblockable jumpshot much more in his carreer instead of taking wild shots. And more left shoulder against Rodman's face...
Meh, Jordan couldn't stop Bird or Jordan
This is not a shutdown. It is great team swarming D. And Anthony Mason was a better defender in all positions than Rodman.
Never 😂😂😂
U need to get on Twitter bro these lebronstans are cancer there
Wilkins was overrated. A great scorer who left alot to be desired defensively.
U must live in a cave
Nique is in books for scoring 2,000+ points 10 seasons

Reread my post please. Did I not say he was a great scorer? Damn! SMH
welcome to one of the more stupid comments you will read ha ha
Dominique Wilkins is one of the very best (certainly Top 50 All-Time) basketball players of his basketball generation/era Michael Jordan's primary scoring/highlight rival from the mid 80's into the early 90's... (Even besting MJ at (1) of their (2) Slam Dunk Contest Showdowns)
