But he averaged 2 points in a finals series. Hes obviously useless.

WeissVonner:
Why would you ever reference points when talking about his contributions when you know damn well that has nothing to do with why he's in the hall of fame. Its like bringing up Steph Curry and mentioning how many blocks he had. Rodman was an elite defender and rebounder. Led the league in rebounds in the regular season throughout the second three peat and averaged over 30 minutes per game during the playoffs. Why are you old heads intent on rewriting history?
2 Defensive Player of the Year awards, 7 All-Defensive First Teams. Won the rebounding title 7 times. Averaged 13.1 rebounds per game. Holder of an NBA-record 159 games with 20-plus rebounds.

A monster of a defender who had no limits defense wise.

His name is Dennis Rodman. Call his name.

So they were not unbeatable after winning the first 3 peat?

Every single team in the history of basketball have had a Rodman like player. Don't try to paint him like some star. He was 36 when he came over and not even in his prime.

In 97 they won the title with little or no contribution from Rodman
They were struggling after MJ came back. Other teams were ready for them. The best rebounder in the game and baddest defender in the NBA, Bad Boy Dennis Rodman came to their rescue.

This is no secret. A little googling will reveal this to you. And The Last Dance confirmed this.

Facts.

No Rodman no 2nd 3 peat.

A40:
Pepper them? He wasn't there when Jordan swept these same Pistons and sent them all to premature retirement? Obviously he didn't pepper them enough then.

MJ won a whole 3peat without Rodman. In 97 the Bulls won a title with Rodman averaging 2 and 7 in the Finals grin grin.

Nice try though
You know Rodman wasn't brought in to score. He was brought in to be a defensive beast and monster and a pest and dirty-job man all rolled into one.

Someone who could free up MJ and Pippen to finish off opponents. Someone who could add the x-factor of the Pistons' ruggedness and dirtiness to the Bull's finesse. Someone who would make them truly unbeatable.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m):
Just to butt in a little. Jordan and the Bulls were literally hunting for a 3rd best player in order to win when he returned from his first retirement.

That player was the tireless and enigmatic Rodman who had peppered them as a Piston.

Shamelessly the Bulls went all out to get Rodman, a hated arch-enemy.

MJ didn't care. He wanted to win badly and wanted the best. That was a super 3 right there.

MJ looked for the easy way out too.

Without Rodman, no 2nd 3 peat for MJ.

Let's not demonize Bron and idolize MJ just because it suits the prevailing narrative.

Easy game for the Lakers today. Let's say it's an off day and a feel-out game for the Heats.

On to game 2.

Others stepped up. Bradley feeling foolish right now
Unless he took that decision on a whim, if it was well thought out and he chose to stay with a sick and vulnerable child in the middle of a pandemic, he should have nothing to feel foolish about. People's values and priorities differ.

We are all different.

Mehn, Jamal Murray dey ball abeg!
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 4:49am On Sep 23, 2020
An AD below par performance. He needs to be more consistent. The role players and second unit too. Kuzma has been particularly disappointing all through this round.

A Lakers late rally made the game engaging.

Jeremi Grant and Murray, great game guys. Nuggets are here to ball.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 2:48am On Sep 23, 2020
Lakers struggling offensively today. 2nd quarter and only Lebron is balling.

Nuggets on fire!

sorry for the late reply. for some reasons i can see this topic once i log in. dunno if the mods hide it or something. i stay in Abuja bro
Okay, first I will suggest you listen to Apostle Joshua Selman's Mystery of Deliverance messages(Parts1- 4) to have a general idea of what you might be dealing with and how to approach it. You can download them for free on the internet.

Afterwards you can choose the minister or ministry for the deliverance.

God's grace.

But moving forward, we can't be sloppy like that. How did a 16-point lead go down to -1? Guys were just missing shots. But credit to Malone sha, he had the balls to play Dozier down the stretch. If he could shoot free throws I don't think we would be celebrating by now. And Murray is a legit baller, damn.
I agree.That Dozier was a fearless problem from the bench! If only he made those free throws...
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 3:15am On Sep 21, 2020
Big ups for the nuggets though. What a team! Lakers should watch it, this team is resilient!
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 3:11am On Sep 21, 2020
Wow, what a game!!! AD to the rescue. This was down to the wire! Last second 3 pointer!
FamilyRe: I'm Just Confused.. by DeeMain(m): 11:24pm On Sep 20, 2020
Dude, I know you have immediate needs and bills to pay now and that you might not be spiritual but have you considered that the pattern of sudden deaths and ill luck in your family and bloodline may have a spiritual root? Consider going for spiritual deliverance if you are a Christian and afterwards get close to God.

I know nairalanders are going to come for me but I have to tell you my truth no matter how old school or cliche it sounds.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 4:51am On Sep 19, 2020
Big plays by AD, Dwight and Rondo. Dwight was a problem today. Easy win for the Lakers in game 1.

You don't trust LeBron James?

You think he's the type to be distracted by all that?

This Clippers collapse is so funny sha grin
1. Kawhi rejects the lakers, stalling their free agency to sabotage them
2. Show an ad saying he's the new king of LA
3. PG rejects the lakers+lebron after a feminine documentary to stay back in OKC only to abandon Westbrook to join the clippers
4. Ty lue rejects once in a lifetime opportunity to be the lakers coach to take an assistant role with the clippers
5. Marcus Morris choose the clippers
6. Reggie Jackson choose the clippers
7. Magic abandoned ship and bad mouthed Lakers management
8. The media especially WOJ labeled the lakers dysfunctional and that Vogel was an inferior coach.

All this for the darling Clippers to collapse cheesy
Especially that Kawhi's free agency sabotage... Too early in the day for Lakers to gloat though. If I were them I would focus on the Nuggets or whoever is before me, one game at a time.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 4:43am On Sep 16, 2020
This Clippers team is a fraud!

And Kawhi and PG? Damn!

Oh that clutch block by Adebayo!

SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m):
Roland17:
Shouldn't the embolden be enough to get past the Nuggets? I mean Kawhi, PG and the 2nd unit should be enough..The Nuggets are not going 10 deep na.
What I meant is the Clippers need the other players including their second unit to do their bit especially in the 3rd and 4th quarters. Their over reliance on Kawhi and PG in games 5 and 6 cost them both games in my opinion.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 5:44pm On Sep 15, 2020
etidy:
Exactly the clippers will beat the nuggets in game 7 and everyone will be on kawhi's dick about his greatness (he's indeed great) but let's be real the clippers are better than the Nuggets and are in reality the most loaded team in the league.

A team with 5 players in double digits in the regular season, 3 all nba defenders, 2 6th man of the year off the bench, multiple snippers, one of the greats in kawhi and a former mvp candidate and current all-star in pg has too much weapon and experience to lose a game 7 vs the nuggets
if their players not named Kawhi and PG and their second unit don't get it together like what happened in games 5 and 6, it may be a long day for them, provided the Nuggets don't cave in themselves.
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by DeeMain(m): 8:18pm On Sep 13, 2020
