Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen or Dennis Rodman?

Let's run the tale of the tape;

Michael Jordan:
2.2 Steals
0.5 Blocks
100 Defensive Rating
6.2 DWS
3.1% Steal Rate
1.0% Block Rate
1.4 DBPM

Scottie Pippen:
1.7 Steals
0.7 Blocks
101 Defensive Rating
5.3 DWS
2.5% Steal Rate
1.5% Block Rate
2.2 DBPM

Dennis Rodman:
0.6 Steals
0.4 Blocks
98 Defensive Rating
4.6 DWS
0.9% Steal Rate
1.0% Block Rate
3.5 DBPM




Now let's crunch some numbers!

Michael Jordan: 0.34 ISBDB

Rodman took Malone out of his comfort zone and got into his head two finals in a row

Without him, Bulls go to 7 in both series and might even lose but doubtful with the GOAT

Was in tears earlier this week when posters on here were claiming Draymond is better than Rodman

Draymond may be able to score more but Rodman changes the dynamic of the game when he touches the floor similar to Big Ben Wallace when the Pistons were dominating for 5-6 years

THE WORM!!!!!! one of my favorite players of all time

The second Bulls three-peat was one of the funnest teams to watch. MJ the GOAT, Pippen his sidekick, Dennis the psycho rebounder and defender with his antics, Phil the Zen Master, and a crew of role players like Kukoc, Longley, Kerr

What a team!

Excellent analysis, and proved what we already knew...

BTW, Rodman should have won the FMVP...

His offensive rebounding has instrumental in winning the series

Chicago took 474 shots to Seattle's 418

101 Offensive Rebounds to 67

The series went 6 games... Imagine if Seattle closed those two statistic gaps/differentials by 50%

Could have been a totally different story

Not only that, but Karl blew that series. He waited until game four before he put the Glove on MJ. Jordan couldn't hit a shot to save his life in those last three games.
