He was one of the most popular players in the 1990's. The nba coaches should have voted him as a reserve.

Poor scottie, poor dennis, poor lebron. Why was 34 year old dennis only worth a Will Perdue in 95?

Without Rodman the Magic would have murdered the Bulls front court again. If they got lucky against the Magic. Kemp and the Sonics are gonna beat them in the finals

They were going to accuire jayson williams in the summer of 95. MJ could three peat with horace as pf, with dennis.. so who knows with jayson williams.

He needed the fans to vote him in and I think the fans wanted someone who could score 18 ppg minimum.

The league wasn't going to vote him in because of his antics. Doubt Dennis cared all that much, was a nice weekend to go out and party.

because his playing style didn't fit the WNBA mode, and women were complaining about prison food being too good

Easy: Rodman was a cancer and no team wanted to touch him. The Bulls were in a unique position of desperate need but also a strong team culture with Jackson, Pippen, Jordan providing the leadership that gave them a chance to keep Rodman in check. They had nothing to lose and everything to gain. If Rodman went rogue, they would have cut him.

It is interesting, MJ played with many players who made all-stars teams but only Pippen did so alongside MJ.

Rodman was a complete headcase by 95. He could basically be had for a bag of chips because most teams felt his on-court contributions weren't worth the baggage. MJ and Pip basically had to sign off on the transaction. Would have been interesting had they gone the other way,

LeBron would have had Rodman averaging 20/10 and making the all Star team every year

What are you trying to prove? Lebron lost finals with mvp caliber players, champions. Why didn't rodman make the all star team his 3 years with SAS? Shame on MJ for not helping him be all star and only winning 3 rings together. I have no idea why i'm replying to your braindead ass?

Youre not fooling me, you said funny how mj had teammates making all star games without him but not with him?

Why do you make posts like this, and then "compliment" him when someone points out the bs?

Society was a lot less tolerant of LGBTQ and people with mental health issues. He deserved to be an All-Star of course but he was too different for mainstream society.

Do people realize Rodman only made 2 all-star games his entire career? And he had a 14 year career and only played in Chicago for 3 of them.

He wasn't as highly regarded back then as he is today. Maybe he should've been, but he wasn't. You can argue that Grant in the 1st three-peat and Kukoc sometimes during the 2nd three-peat were just as much or even more valuable.

Have to disagree. Everyone on that second threepeat got s lit of credit. Rodman was widely regarded as the greatest rebounder of all time and also either the greatest or one of the greatest defenders. No one thought the Bulls were winning rings withou him. Defended Shaq, malone, Kemp and others. Massive star off the court. But he had/has some major personality disorder and was crossdressing publicly. Back then the former wasn't understood and the latter was scorned.

No, it's not. Rodman wasn't that great on the Bulls on the whole; he provided little offensive contributions other than offensive antics against other players that got him early ejections from games, fines and suspensions from the league. While he was a great rebounder and provided effective post defense for the Bulls, particularly at the end of games, he certainly wasn't All-Star caliber.

Does averaging 5 points and 14 rebounds equate to being a legitimate all-star?

Not saying he didn't get credit or wasn't highly regarded at all. Just saying he wasn't AS highly regarded. Him not making the all-star team means he wasn't looked at as a top ~25 player in the league. It is what it is.
