Laettner owned Rodman, this whole series. I was never a Laettner fan, but he played great, and stood toe to toe, never backed down this series. I gained a lot of respect for him.
I watched a few minutes and all I saw was Rodman not able to guard Laettner and not being happy about it. Keep in mind Laettner had his best career game vs Rodman - 37 pts.
Rodman bullied other bullies mostly like Laettner and Malone. Now coincidental he was with the bad boys but agitated the other most dirty players in history.
That was a good Atlanta team. I remember watching a few of those games. Laettner's best performances were with Atlanta and I remember him acquitting himself quite well.
@@matt756162-20 in 2010-11, and made the Eastern Conference Finals... and 50-16 the next season. 11 other playoff appearances since Jordan retired. You're obviously clueless, and a Jordan hater & jealous of the Bulls. Lol 😆
I love old school playoff basketball, I don't think I've ever seen teammates from both teams so concerned about a match up. It felt like any moment the fist were going to go flying and everyone in the arena was aware
How come everyone talks highly about kirk HInrichs nba career, but talks low about Christian Laetners nba career when Christian Laetner actually had a better nba career, much better I think? Just because the expectations were higher for laetner? That's stupid!
Because he was so good and white and tough, that's why. They were hoping he would fail, he didn't and had a good career, but not as good as college so they jump on that like it's something. Laettner was an 18 point and 10 rebound guy before the injuries in the last years
It's incredible the amount of bias...I even bought it until Y-tube came around was in a small market team -i was exoting my young nba watching phase -& he talked w/ his game--he wasn't the type to yell over his dissenters
Random comparison..Two completely different type of players.Hinrich is a better defender and has the most three pointers in Bulls history.I don't think Laettner holds any records for the teams he played for
The refs and david stern allowed Rodman's bs to make Jordan look good. It was all about the brand. Shameful really. Should have been ejected half of the games he played in.
@@millypoo7713 Rodwoman is a gimp. Laettner owned him from start to finish lol. he tried to use the race-card against laettner and LOST. and my comment to you is simple: "god watches you whack off, frowns on that SIN". is THAT exaggerated? or ..is..it...EMBEDDED?!?!? =D wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeHOEeeeeee
Lmao Nah man, just no. If you ever played basketball competitively you gotta know what Dennis Rodman did on the court is worthy of the Hall of Fame. It's hard to just go and go and go, and D up, Crash the boards over and over and over again and he did all that every night without caring to do the most rewarding thing in basketball and score. Dennis Rodman won Rings without Jordan and was a contributing member, he was on a team that beat Jordan in the playoffs also, and he did not ride cot tails he contributed big time with his hustle. Dennis Rodman had the motor of a Demi-God, he could just fucking GO. He hustled, fought, did ALL the hard nosed dirty work everyone else hated doing and he did it for fun. Michael Jordan has so much respect for Dennis Rodman as a basketball player you can see it in his face when he talks about him. Laettner had an OK career because he was a great player but not Elite in the NBA at anything, Rodman was ELITE at his role on the floor, without Rodman Jordan does not win 6.
Effective click baiting. You got me. I didn't witness Rodman bullying Laettner once during the video. Rodman was obviously neurochemicaly imbalanced and at times more of a liability than an asset to the Bulls.
It's honestly fair to say he was a liability on every team he was ever on, at times. Not always, but at times. On the Pistons, he was like the little brother and he listened to and respected his coaches and teammates. But everywhere else he was doing his own thing and not listening to anyone.
all humans care is about..........(a)-themselves, (b)-theySelvesKniggohhh, or (c)-A&B? fake titles/thumbnails for views for attention and supposed $$$. you get what you pay for.
This was easily Rodman's worst playoff series as a Bull. He was so bad that Phil Jackson took him out of the starting lineup. Only averaged 5 rpg and played less than 20 minutes per game. Despite the few minutes, he still racked up nearly 4 fouls per game.
Dennis Rodman was so famous that some people actually said that he was the greatest rebounder of all time. Mr. William Felton Russell's response? "He's adequate...but to compare him to Wilt and me is an error." Statistically, to compare him to the 22 people ahead of him on the all time rebound list is also an error.
@Jaime Garcia I totally see your point and agree with you. Comparing number of games played doesn't help him either. And I think the number of rebounds they got in the NBA - in total and average - says something about their rebounding ability. PS, I'm a Christian Laettner fan and this video triggered me LOL
A guy like Dennis Rodman is same personality type as Draymond Green. Likes to show how tough he is by picking a fight with a guy that is too mature to participate in a fist fight. But anyone can really see the cowardice.
Perfect example of Dennis getting in someone’s head and truly taking them out of their game…. He clearly had Christian angry and Rodman didn’t care at all… Rodman’s mind games…
Laettner always got a ridiculously bad wrap as a pro, some even called him a bust. He had some very productive years in the NBA, all star etc. Injuries are what ultimately did him in.
Atlanta was the only really good team Christian was on and he made the All-star team. Every other team sucked and he was expected to carry the entire load by himself. Even Jordan didn't do shit until Scottie showed up!! Even as a Uconn fan I have to give him his due!
"Dennis Rodman bullying Christian Laettner?!!? Haha!! Yeah, right. More like "Christian Laetnner living rent-free in Rodman's head all night." Rodman was the punk in that compilation.
Rodman had(s) some serious mental illness. flopper.. dirty player. Makes me hate the 90's even more............ how the refs favored the Bulls + Jordan
What a ridiculous statement. The guy had a motor unmatched by anyone in the league. Guarded guys that had several inches and 50 to 100 lbs on him. Won 2 defensive players of the year. etc etc.
Announcers are in love with Rodman. Call it the way we see it, Rodman instigated fouls, a low life. Play tough yes, play hard, intense. But don’t play like an asshole.
Another title that doesn't match the video. Rodman wasn't as talented as Laettner so he had to grab him, and then of course cry to the ref when he got called for it.
The title should’ve been “Laettner Dominating Rodman Comp.”
"Dennis Rodman fouling Christian Laettner, and sending a great free throw shooter to the line".
'rodman handig laettner points'
Laettner owned Rodman, this whole series. I was never a Laettner fan, but he played great, and stood toe to toe, never backed down this series. I gained a lot of respect for him.
The title should be changed to Rodman fouling laettner
Christrian stood his ground and Rodman was salty most of the time. No bullying tolerated by Laettner, but nice matchups in general!
I watched a few minutes and all I saw was Rodman not able to guard Laettner and not being happy about it. Keep in mind Laettner had his best career game vs Rodman - 37 pts.
He was best college center ever
@@scaramouche8244 4 Final 4 appearances, 3 championship game appearances, 2 championships. I'd say so.
@@dukefan37923 why you glazing bruh?
Gotta watch the whole video. By the 2nd half Rodman is completely in his head
@@scaramouche8244 Better than Kareem?
Bullied? Rodman grabs, flops, and falls constantly,which not exactly what I'd consider a bully. More like a nuance than a bully.
I think you meant nuisance.
@@markbrinton6790 I just caught that.... 🙂
didn't realize Laettner was in Rodman's head like that. Rodman flopfest around 3 minutes.
Something I didn't know i needed. The greatest college troll of all time versus the greatest NBA troll of all time. I love them both!
NBA was amazing in the 90s
Laettner averaged 24 and 8? I think it was Laettner bullying Dennis. CL prolly looked forward to playing the Bulls.
Rodman bullied other bullies mostly like Laettner and Malone. Now coincidental he was with the bad boys but agitated the other most dirty players in history.
All i see is hawks getting free throws and points 😂
was a different game back then... mental games. Dennis was a master.
I would say Laettner more than held his own. He always had more game than the brothers wanted to give him credit for.. respect
The irony is when all of this is going on, the league allowed Shaq just to run over people.
Facts
That was a good Atlanta team. I remember watching a few of those games. Laettner's best performances were with Atlanta and I remember him acquitting himself quite well.
Made the All-Stars team as a Hawk.
@dislikebutton4981 Yeah, a good Atlanta team who could not beat the Bulls when it meant something in the postseason LOL 😆

Kirk Hinrichs?
Who ever talks about Kirk Hinrich??? I have heard his name or even thought about him in a good 10 years.
Random comparison..Two completely different type of players.Hinrich is a better defender and has the most three pointers in Bulls history.I don't think Laettner holds any records for the teams he played for
Zero backing down by either player....zero bullying in the video.
It brings a smile to my face watching this. They deserve each other
I’ll be honest, this was the NBA I grew up with; it makes today’s game look like a three point shooting contest.
Today's game IS a 3-point shooting contest.
Thanks for being “honest”. 😒
We know we know🤦🏽
Players now in days say they could play back then 😅. Lebron would file an assault charge😂
Laettner was unbothered by Rodman. If Laettner played in the current era he would put up huge numbers.
The refs and david stern allowed Rodman's bs to make Jordan look good. It was all about the brand. Shameful really. Should have been ejected half of the games he played in.
stern is from WHAT tribe again? connect the dots, NateMcMillan.

Rodman was not good this series, so that part is true. On the other hand, you can't judge a player on one playoff series.
@@mariusloveless7880 this video didn't include anything good that Rodman did though. It didn't include any rebounds
Rodman is incapable of "bullying" anyone. On defense, he is a total flopper. Laettner is like WTF.
The only thing that is a flop is your comment 😆 🤣 😂

I speculate Dennis Rodman to have high functioning autism
100% Laettner was awesome , very tough!

Love the click bait title. They are playing the game.
What I learned from this video: Christian freakin Laettner ... is tougher than most players in the league today 😵💫
Dude. He had him so pissed. But that was a great battle.
Mentally light years ahead of most players he played against!
Dennis Rodman auditioning for a role in a movie
Yeah, and the movie's title would be:" FrankenGimp, the Trans-sylvania TardTroll"

Dennis Rodman being whipped by Christian Laettner and can do nothing but foul intentionally in return.
Looked like Laettner bullying Rodman, Rodman is just on a better team.
Rodmen wearing brass knuckles on the court in the game lol. Always ready for a fight.
"lol" is dated
@@jooson2826 you are too
And likes to wear a dress hey whatever floats your boat
Back when announcers found egregious flopping amusing.
I’m just here to watch post-play and shots not taken with 21 seconds on the shot clock still left.
hardly bullied him lol
Loved how Rodman owned so many guys with his crafty veteran play
Rodman was grimy asf😂😂
A guy like Dennis Rodman is same personality type as Draymond Green. Likes to show how tough he is by picking a fight with a guy that is too mature to participate in a fist fight. But anyone can really see the cowardice.

I see the REFS favoring Jordan's Bulls. The Chosen Team. Rodman can't guard Laettner.
He just flops all day long and the REFS love it.
Not sure about the headline? Christian was killing Worm.
Nice job of editing ... very entertaining! ... thx much!
faker comment lmao
Rodman bullying Laettner? Really? Looks more like Rodman turning into Flopman because Laettner is abusing him.
Perfect example of Dennis getting in someone’s head and truly taking them out of their game…. He clearly had Christian angry and Rodman didn’t care at all… Rodman’s mind games…
Laettner always got a ridiculously bad wrap as a pro, some even called him a bust. He had some very productive years in the NBA, all star etc. Injuries are what ultimately did him in.
Rodman did not bully Laettner, Laettner gave him as good as he got!
As Rodman's skills deteriorated his distracting tactics escalated.
Atlanta was the only really good team Christian was on and he made the All-star team. Every other team sucked and he was expected to carry the entire load by himself. Even Jordan didn't do shit until Scottie showed up!!
Even as a Uconn fan I have to give him his due!
LeBron must've learned his flopping from Rodman vids.....
dennis to ref: I elbowed him like 'this'...
ref to dennis: no. you elbow him like 'this'...
dennis to ref: OK. i gotcha...
Get it out and get it up is WILD, Hubie.
Rodman went bankrupt. Nobody in the NBA came to help him.
Rodman was clearly trying to get under Laettner’s skin but the fact that it wasn’t working was pissing Rodman off 😂
Hard for people to understand what a magical time this was for the NBA
So glad bullying is not tolerated in the league anymore. It’s not toughness. It’s cowardice.
Someone needs to show this to Caitlin Clark. This is how you deal with physical play.
I think you got it wrong looks to me like Laytnor is bullying Rodman
Rodman was a hack. I would have never wanted that piece of crap on my team.
Even his teammates said he was more of a distraction than an asset.
Dennis is a Hall of Famer and deservedly so. That said, Christian is a talented tough guy and could play in any era.
"Dennis Rodman bullying Christian Laettner?!!?
Haha!! Yeah, right. More like "Christian Laetnner living rent-free in Rodman's head all night."
Rodman was the punk in that compilation.
Bullied? Rodman never had any game. He was also never a fighter. He was a flopper.
You know, technically, Laettner was a superior offensive player
This is not bullying. This is Laettner using his head and staying in the game. You're no good to your team if you're ejected.
rodman Dirty player
Rodman was WWF in the NBA that was his game. All entertainment. No other player could grope another player and get away with it.
No recordaba a Laettner en Atlanta, en mi mente jugo en Minesota y luego se perdio, uno de los sujetos mas odiables jamas.
Rodman had(s) some serious mental illness. flopper.. dirty player. Makes me hate the 90's even more............ how the refs favored the Bulls + Jordan
Rodman wasn't 'bullying' Laettner. He couldn't handle his height & was trying to get in his head....it didn't work.
Bullying?
Far from it....Laettner may have not been well liked but he was no pussy.
why were the other players so hard on Laettner. He didnt do anything to deserve the bad treatment. He was a solid player.
Bullying: playing dirty and the refs not caring
Rodman simply couldn’t cover Laetner.
Christian skooled him
Rodman couldn't play defense! He just happened to play with skilled players
What a ridiculous statement. The guy had a motor unmatched by anyone in the league. Guarded guys that had several inches and 50 to 100 lbs on him. Won 2 defensive players of the year. etc etc.

Fun nostalgic compilation but no “bullying” going on here.
No bullying, just fouling
Rodman was an annoying, trash player, and a very boring human we've heard way too much about.
If Trump was the president of the US, this would have never happened!
Phil taking Rodman out so he doesn’t ignite the hawks emotionally for the next game… ?
Looks more like Laettner dominating Rodman, which isn't easy to do.
Welcome to basketball in the 90s
Title is misleading, as Laettner is getting the better of the battle.
Dennis Rodman started the flopping and mastered by Lebron
Laettner should have been in the NBA Hall of Fame.
baddies behind rodman
Rodman played like a soccer player.
Laettner rules! Watching that dude play at Duke was something else. Ice cold killer!
Pathetic how much Rodman would bait refs for offensive calls.
It's easy to be the bully when MJ's on your team. #GOAT
7:30 is hilarious and genius.
I hate when leflop does it, but the worm was so funny
Laettner is owning Rodman in these highlights. Rodman just being a baby because he can't guard him.
Laettner handled that quite well
See what happens? Rodman bullied him so he undercut Jordan.
