Rodman celebrated if his opponent got a foul or a tech. It looked silly but his victories was not just scores and rebounds. He celebrated getting into their heads and taking them out their game. That was like a monster dunk to him. Deceptively smart
He was a troll. Emotional guys like Barkley or Zo always took the bait. He tried that shit on Hakeem in the playoffs and he just shrugged his shoulders and proceeded to kick he and the rest of his squads ass.
I watched one of Oakley's interview and they said that Rodman didn't want nothing with Oak, I don't see any Rodman backing down or being scared of Oak in this video.
Very surreal watching this 25+ years later. I was thinking this looks like the game where Denis gets ejected and takes off his shirt and sure enough it was. People don't realize Charles had man strength as a rookie coming into the league. People also don't realize Michael was really small when he came into the league. They called him "skinny Mike".
Oakley was one of the few players who not only wouldn't get intimidated by Rodman, but he would often pull a Rodman on Rodman. I can understand why Dennis didn't want anything to do with him, his mind games wouldn't work on Charles.
Nope Rodman really wanted nothing with Oak neither barkley or any of them Oak was MJ enforcer when Oak was with The Bulls yo. Oak is a beast an yes he was a Kool dude too. Rodman that is my man the best rebounder in the game
i still remember that he dropped tear when he was selected as defence player of the yr for the 1st time under his dad chuck daly. it was a beautiful moment.
Damn the NBA was so good during this era. These boys that play now wouldnt stand a chance with the players in the 90s. The ones that disagree were most likely still swimming around in their dad's sack in the 90s, so they dont really know how good the NBA was back then.
Great players today would’ve adapted just like how great players adapted to the three point game. When you’re great, you’ll adapt doesn’t matter the era.
@@TOGGGAA1 That's your opinion but I think it's ignorant. I guarantee that Kevin Durant would have succeeded. If pretty boy Magic Johnson could've played, Durant most certainly would have. If John Stockton and Reggie Miller made it, Curry would've made it too.
@@RightInFrontOfYou It is night and day. Todays players are extremely more athletic compared to players then. Just because todays rules are different doesn't mean todays players are soft.
One thing I have to say about Bill Laimbeer: If you're on his team, he really has your back. Any time it looked like there might be a scuffle between one of his teammates and someone on the opposing team, he's one of the first ones there who is ready to get in a fight for his guy, if need be -- no questions asked.
That was the Detroit Pistons. Chuck Daley, Laimbeer, Mahorn, Isaiah, Rodman, Dumars, Vinny, Edwards. They were a team, backing down from nobody. Laimbeer and Mahorn were capable of scoring 25-30 pts a night. They gaveup scoring to become two of the best role players in nba history. Enforcers, making sure they controlled the paint every night. Laimbeer and Mahorn, that duo probably caused a lot of players to lose sleep the night before the game. 😂
He just wants to fight someone hahaha but yea can be useful. Only a few of those dudes were really real imo. Mahorn, Rodman. Isiah was tough but tiny. The others were fake enforcers. I dunno if bill could beat all ppl in nba but he could stand w them long enough. He didn’t try to fight shaq or anything
In the 90s, whether on my college campus or my local park area, I played basketball the same way I played rugby, physical and rough! I have a short frame, so I hit the gym hard. My lane was DEFENSE and rebounding, so Dennis Rodman was my idol. Anyone trying to do a layup on my 5'6 short frame was going to get body slammed on hard pavement! I took special glee bashing into guys taller me, letting them know they were dealing with a pitbull. You were going to either pass that ball or go for a desperate 3 point (and miss!) but you were not bring it down the paint. And an elbow to my face was not a problem, bring on those "love taps." Well, I learned over the years I can't play baskeball with anyone under 30 cuz these weakling zillennials cry foul if you nudege or just look at them sideways on the court. I can't stand to watch the NBA today. I rather watch 3on3. When I watch Big3, it feels like 1994 again.
Talk about head games, I saw him get in Alonzo Mourning head and get him right out of his game and you could see Zo on the bench mouthing to Rodman " You sick mother fuc*er" (th-cam.com/video/CBfumXGoBpI/w-d-xo.html) and poor Frank Brickowski never stood a chance, (th-cam.com/video/wPejpJOJJjU/w-d-xo.html)........LMAO
I was such a big bulls fan back in the 90's and I loved Mike, adored him, but believe it not Rodman had to be a fav back then.

@@junaditya3895 Context: 1993/94 season- The Chicago Bulls added new players and managed to keep Prime Horace Grant in their ranks. MJ never played with Horace Grant, Toni Kucoc, Armstrong, Longley and Steve Kerr all at the same time. In addition, in 1994, the Chicago Bulls were very lucky, in the First Round they beat the injured Cavs team. 3 Elite Cleveland Cavaliers players were injured and did not play against the Chicago Bulls in the First Round of the 1994 Eastern Conference. 1994 ECFR: Bulls vs Cavs ( 4:0 ). Cavs: Brad Daugherty- Missed 4 games. Hot Rod Williams- Missed 4 games. Larry Nance- Missed 4 games. And if not for these injuries the Chicago Bulls might, not have made it to the second round.
@@B.Piercesports I don't see my comment about LeBron flopping around, I think on certain level flopping or to sell the call is part of the game and if the ref is bad it's their fault. LeBron got a lot of heat for flops because his body type is like Karl Malone who rarely flopped, because it wasn't realistic that anyone push him away, or he fell over.
Rodman used to get a lot of bad calls due to his reputation. We just saw three instances where Oakley hammered Rodman, and they called the foul on Rodman. Ridiculous!
This video was recommended to me on my tv. I’m a new subscriber and fan bc of your videos. I worked for the Orlando Magic from 2004-2014, I spent a lot of time with Nick Anderson. He told me that MJ hung out with Oakley in Vegas, LA, NYC on vacations etc… He would tell me some awesome stories about them. All the best players from the 80’s and 90’s know that if you’re with Oakley nobody is fu&@ing with you. I thought it was cool that MJ respected him enough to hang out with him. That speaks volumes about Oakley as a man.
I've heard Rodman was strong like Wilt the strongest player in NBA but also heard Oakley is up there with them would love to see Rodman for and Oakely box but dont know what they can do now bc they are older.
I've watched so many of these videos hoping I'll get to see 1 where dennis is throwing hands with somebody but it never happens :( he don't wanna fight he just wants to piss people off to the point where they get themselves thrown out of the game
Rodman is the hardest working player ive ever seen. He had a superhuman motor. Watching him high stepping up and down the court like a gazelle, despite the constant beatings dished out and received, must have been deflating for opponents. Utterly relentless.... Imo, his athleticism was off the charts. Probably would have been incredible at decathlon.
Oakley held his own against Rodman. That's no easy feat. Interesting to see them battle each other on different teams. The tension back then was unreal.
Rodman was known not only for his hard work for his rebounding which was just incredible. He was known for his hustle for chasing loose balls 🏀 to give his team extra possessions to win games and championships. You have to appreciate Rodman’s effort regardless of the tattoos.
Rodman wouldn't tire, Rodman wouldn't quit, Rodman would get inside of his opponents heads. His strengths were whatever bothered him you'd be the last to know it. Weakness offense, but when you have MJ on your team that covers any weaknesses that you may have.
No. 1 Knicks fan here... Damn, gotta admit - - Oakley flopping like a fish out of water on most of these flashbacks (hate to see it). Rodman was one of one.
Why yall hate on ppl for no reason...??? He's not the flashiest player nor is he aggressive like Kobe (r.i.p) or Jordan, but can either of those two player play all 5 positions or even guard players in all 5 positions that's that's not even the main thing just answer that..
@@wonallahchingada5048 bro do you watch like really watch NBA games not just look at the television or at the score like really look at the game... It isn't a myth about him playing and guarding all positions
Those early 90s Knicks vs Pistons games were rough man. Im actually surprised to rewatch this and see that it was really rodman was the bigger man herw and Oakley playing dirty and flopping. I always respected the hell outta Oakley
They could save the league if they go back to the 80’s & 90’s style of the NBA. LeFlop will be forgotten about in a month when he quietly leaves and the NBA will improve significantly 💯
The fact oak sent his whole body and couldn’t drop Rodman and in fact he fell is proof of the advanced knowledge of physics Rodman has. Which he also used to reb too.
Came here from an article written by a VIRGIL VILLANUEVA about Oakley. Oak tried to say he kicked Rodman out his steakhouse which may have very well happened but to then say Rodman was soft and was just a "good" rebounder is ludicrous. He said some other crap too which doesn't surprise me bc it's oak lol but yea
Two legends. Rodman probably my favorite Defensive PF of all time and as a old time Knick fan Oakley will forever be the face of the tough no nonsense 90's knicks. Oak was the enforcer and in many ways did many of the same things Rodman did (although no one does it better than rodman).
Oakley crashed the boards and often held rodman in check rebounding wise. Rodman was more like a "worm" squirming his way to a rebound. Oakley quite literally ran and crashed his body into players to get the rebound.. different types of players.
@@soramirez5473 💯. Rodman had a gift of seeing the trajectory of the ricochet to know where to go to get the rebound. Definitely also will out hustle and out-cardio you. Oakley was a rock, that was a master at boxing out, and had the strength to tassel with the big men. It certainly wasn’t his hops. Like you said he uses his body to get rebounds, Barkley was like that too, short, didn’t have high hops, but that 6’6 frame would feel Ike a 6’10 frame.
Gotta love 90's PF battles, and I love 90s NBA. Bark Malone Oak Kemp LJ Rodman Thorpe HGrant BWilliams DColeman TCummings, I'm sure I'm leaving some out but it was the era of the ballers with balls with characters inside.
Someone call the new commissioner and tell him that their views would go up, if they allowed this type of play again. I love offense but the grind of defense kept you glued to the tv. That’s why Football is the best sport to watch… The contact!!!❤️🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Roadman was a great player with Detroit . The Bulls picked him up for his talent . And his dirty play as a tactic. The Bulls were so deep on the bench, it didn't matter if Rodman got technicals or got tossed out of the game

It was Rodman against Ewing, Johnson, Oakley and McDaniel from that Knicks team. What a Beast!
1. Hakeem Olajuwon
2. Kevin Garnett
3. Dennis Rodman
4. Michael Jordan
5. Stephen Curry
My all time starting 5
If lebrick James had to face Charles Oakley and Dennis rodman they'll turn him into queen James
90% of the nba not just Bron... So don't just hate on the man's greatness
@@sylvesterthomas8118 what greatness you smoking k2 mixed with moonrocks
Why yall hate on ppl for no reason...??? He's not the flashiest player nor is he aggressive like Kobe (r.i.p) or Jordan, but can either of those two player play all 5 positions or even guard players in all 5 positions that's that's not even the main thing just answer that..
@@sylvesterthomas8118 lebrick James play all 5 positions is a le ESPN narrative dude
Don't b a sheep
@@wonallahchingada5048 bro do you watch like really watch NBA games not just look at the television or at the score like really look at the game... It isn't a myth about him playing and guarding all positions
Mocking all nba players are only the past time of dennis and charles oakley during their era..
Those early 90s Knicks vs Pistons games were rough man. Im actually surprised to rewatch this and see that it was really rodman was the bigger man herw and Oakley playing dirty and flopping. I always respected the hell outta Oakley
Rodman over Oakley every time.
They could save the league if they go back to the 80’s & 90’s style of the NBA. LeFlop will be forgotten about in a month when he quietly leaves and the NBA will improve significantly 💯
This Oakley guy flopping around from Rodman’s taps is the one saying Giannis couldn’t hang with him? Lol alright buddy
Rodman got so many calls against him that were unwarranted
Great battle Oakley vs Rodman
2 legendary nba tough guys right here
The fact oak sent his whole body and couldn’t drop Rodman and in fact he fell is proof of the advanced knowledge of physics Rodman has. Which he also used to reb too.
Wow!!! I remember how intense those games were and players having to wear face mask. The whole family would be gathered around the tv on edge...
That Knicks roster would have todays teams crying to their mamas.
AD would literally break like a toothpick vs these real men
That hip check from Rodman 😂
2:50 - pure perfection.
When basketball was FIRE 🔥
Man I really miss those physical battles back in the day. I don't even watch today's NBA.
Oakley will not be remembered. Rodman will not be forgotten.
Oakley got more videos of his thuggary on youtube than any other player.. I certainly has not been forgotten.
Hope Oakley got an Oscar for that flop at 1:50
Oakley's plays against Rodman were dirty for sure but looks like Rodman learned some dirtiness from Oakley and applied some of it later in his career.
Rodman we miss you on the NBA you the best defense in the NBA history!
Came here from an article written by a VIRGIL VILLANUEVA about Oakley. Oak tried to say he kicked Rodman out his steakhouse which may have very well happened but to then say Rodman was soft and was just a "good" rebounder is ludicrous. He said some other crap too which doesn't surprise me bc it's oak lol but yea
I got to lift with oakly at the Deerfield Bally total fitness in early 2000s. Nice guy
I miss old school basketball. Malice at the Palace was something else!
Como extraño esos partidos nada que ver con la liga qué hay hoy en día
0:19-0:20 & 0:26-0:30 John Salley comforting his old Bad Boys teammate.
The days when we ordered pizza and drink beers to watch real games.
Rodman is wild. 😂
Two legends. Rodman probably my favorite Defensive PF of all time and as a old time Knick fan Oakley will forever be the face of the tough no nonsense 90's knicks. Oak was the enforcer and in many ways did many of the same things Rodman did (although no one does it better than rodman).
Oakley crashed the boards and often held rodman in check rebounding wise. Rodman was more like a "worm" squirming his way to a rebound. Oakley quite literally ran and crashed his body into players to get the rebound.. different types of players.
@@soramirez5473 💯. Rodman had a gift of seeing the trajectory of the ricochet to know where to go to get the rebound. Definitely also will out hustle and out-cardio you. Oakley was a rock, that was a master at boxing out, and had the strength to tassel with the big men. It certainly wasn’t his hops. Like you said he uses his body to get rebounds, Barkley was like that too, short, didn’t have high hops, but that 6’6 frame would feel Ike a 6’10 frame.
I miss Rodman he didn't back down from anyone.
some real battles here
Gotta love 90's PF battles, and I love 90s NBA.
Bark Malone Oak Kemp LJ Rodman Thorpe HGrant BWilliams DColeman TCummings, I'm sure I'm leaving some out but it was the era of the ballers with balls with characters inside.
Someone call the new commissioner and tell him that their views would go up, if they allowed this type of play again. I love offense but the grind of defense kept you glued to the tv. That’s why Football is the best sport to watch… The contact!!!❤️🔥❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Roadman was a great player with Detroit . The Bulls picked him up for his talent . And his dirty play as a tactic. The Bulls were so deep on the bench, it didn't matter if Rodman got technicals or got tossed out of the game
