@Mark Maverick Definitely, I have been using instaflixxer for years myself :)

[@MobbKeith]

This info is priceless! I was 14 when Rodman came to the Bulls & watched him more than any other player. I couldn't do what MJ did but I can replicate Rodman who's always battling guys taller & bigger than him. I used all these techniques as a 5'6" teenager & was able to get rebounds over guys 5'10"- 6'0".

[@HoopGenius]

@@MobbKeith yesssir!

[@1210SKEEN]

Rodman was a beaassst. Hands down my favourite Bulls player from the 90s, the work ethic was unreal, the man was locked in differently.

[@HoopGenius]

one of a kind, no players in the league right now can do what he did

[@HoopGenius]

thank God for the internet!

[@dominiquejones3805]

It was something else! I wrote a essay on him when I was n the 4th grade. The Worm is special

[@cdjhyoung]

I caught an interview with Grant Hill from after he had retired. As a teen, he and some cronies got to visit the Piston's locker room after a Piston's game. Rodman had played 40 plus minutes, but he was on a stationary bike putting in his 2 hours of carido after laying it all out on the floor. The other part of that interview was that as Rodman was working out he was engage with those young players and he's the Piston that asked them to come hang out with him at his place and play video games. Dennis Rodman acted out in a weird way to the rest of the world, but inside it appears he was a really decent person.

[@ManriqueSolera80]

Rodman was not born the best, he became the best due to his discipline, physical attributes, cardio and will power. Best defensive player I have ever seen hands down.

[@olafweiske6132]

@Mike Hawk he was, but he still made you pay on the court for his hangover ;)

[@bradenmcfortnite7326]

best rebounder not defense

[@stygamerjay7214]

With this new era of the basketball, big men aren't nearly concerned at grabbing boards than they are at scoring or defense, like many old heads say, rebounds is becoming a lost art. I'd say Rodman could possibly grab even more rebounds than he did in the 90s with how much effort he put into it.

[@RafsanS15]

maybe this was the reason why his Spurs lost against Rockets at 95 WCF. He prefers to stay at his lane instead nullifying Horry ability to stretch the floor

[@cloudmoore2834]

Maybe he would grab more boards, if he could get a job. Number 1 he can’t shoot and nowadays not shooting is a big problem because spacing is a big thing now. So you can’t be just trying to get position for rebounds because now you’re clogging driving lanes and making the paint more congested in general. Rodman would have to sit in the corner and run in for rebounds whilst cutting. And if he didn’t get the rebound teams are now faster than ever in transition and he’d be stuck in a bad spot. Probably leading to a transition 3.

[@holdthephoneblocker]

​@@cloudmoore2834 Ok Steve Kerr.

[@Hirabeatz]

@@cloudmoore2834 he COULD shoot and score, he just wasnt selfish. He knew his place and played it flawlessly sacrifcing clips and shot attempts. The modern rodman is Kawhi, and Rodman would be fine today, but most likely less valuable because big men are more aggressive now.

[@dominiquejones3805]

​@@Hirabeatz right Rodman actually could score when he wanted 2 he just didn't focus on it. He understood his role

[@SHAIFDAILLEST]

this guy is literally a 1 in a billion player, i can't imagine players playing like this in modern basketball

[@koffinNAILS]

Rodman is my favorite nba player. He's part of my legends list.

[@myblacklab7]

Good video. I didn't expect to learn anything to help my rebounding, but I did. That's crazy that he thought about how many times the ball spinned before the shot would hit the rim - I never even thought of trying to figure that out. Rodman was such a Zen master.

[@HoopGenius]

That’s cool how much rebounds you average before and now?

[@markhathaway9456]

thank you so much, that means a lot!!

[@randomando4310]

This is helped me a lot, as an undersized player myself, its hard going against bigger opposition. Sure all the preparation, cardio, just everything in general was a pain in the ass in the beginning, but once my team started winning more, I knew I was doing the right thing. Gotta give props to the worm for seeing the game in a different way and that insane work ethic he had.

[@KetchupOnShirt]

Film room, film room, and more film room!!

[@thesadkid4703]

Bro this is what I'm looking for tbh rebounding and defense is my specialty and I play like him so I'm always finding some vids or techniques to make my rebounding better and I am a very big fan of Rodman so this vid helped me a lot and I also act like I'm doing what rodman was doing which is the volleyball technique but from a ballon lol

[@HoopGenius]

i'm glad i could help. players like rodman may not be huge on the score sheet, but you cant win without em!

[@DrJohnnyJ]

Elgin Baylor was very similar; his first jump was high but then he "bounced"; hardly bending his knees. He also took shots that put the opponents out of position then tip in the offensive rebound. He was stronger than Rodman. He never led the league in rebounding but was 3rd or 4th.

[@sergeibowser5034]

He Was 6”7” even Jordan said Rodman was an inch taller than him (in the Last Dance)

Awesome video. I have the best defense at my local park, but I REALLY need to improve on offense. Very informative.

[@RatelHBadger]

Mind Games is definitely #1 If you can get into your opposites' head, it doesn't matter if he can shoot 3's at will in training. If he's more worried about where you are and what you are doing, he won't shoot anywhere near his best. Same goes for rebounds. If you psych someone out by firing them up so they want to take you out of the game rather than get the rebound, or they are worried about getting hit by you during a rebound contest they won't challenge every time. Leaving you with more chances to cleanly steal the rebound. Or just wait out their temper for them to get fouled out of the game.

[@zzz.tyrone]

Or all of them

[@derekwang6531]

My takeaways from this video: - Rebounds are an effort stat; the more want and effort, the more rebounds - Use film to study where rebounds will go from what type of shots and misses - Athleticism is key, specifically cardio and jumping, especially second and third jumps without a maximal approach - As an undersized player, use little taps to move the ball to a more accessible place to secure the rebound. - Judo, or preventing the opponent from moving, and using agility to gain a quickness advantage (this is a risky one, since it is a foul) - Try using mind games to gain a psychological advantage; bait the opponent into focusing more on yourself than on rebounding and playing the game.

When looking back at film, I always thought that I ran weirder than everyone else. Ofc this was caused by my long legs. I was always subconscious about it, until I watched Rodman. Now I try to emulate him every way I can, I already have e running down lol.

Same lol last year as a freshman on jv I was 6’2 and most of the guys I played against were 5’10 and below. During practice or games I felt like I’m running the same as everyone else but looking at the film I run damn near exactly like Dennis. My coach calls me high knees 😂

[@billwindsor4224]

Excellent and informative video, about Rodman who was one of the most talented and persistent and aggressive players we have seen. And he was hilarious and entertaining, The Beast. I remember watching Chicago Bulls championship playoff series where Rodman would challenge players and look like he was about to get in a fight; Jordan would run up to him from behind, wrap his arms around Rodman’s body and yank him away from the confrontation; and Rodman would be laughing his hiney off at the situation. Awesome 😂😂 🏆🏆

[@BgbadWulof]

When I was in school and played I was 5'10" I was good at jumping. Guard was my position. I was bad about getting beside them let em grab the ball in the air and while they start to come down jump forward and inside then hook the ball take it away from em. My Forward knew what I was doing and get to 3 pt. line. I'd spin on my inside foot pass. Part of the time my elbow would get the other guy in the jaw and the ref would never see it.

Good video and analysis. Rodman and Jordan are actually alike. One is a white knight and one is a black knight. Jordan is a ninja assassin. Rodman is also an assassin disguised as a clown.

[@GeneralBulldog54]

That's probably why they got along. Jackson brought it together but when Rodman and Jordan had to work without Pippen, they realized they both had the drive. Jordan needed any competitive edge to get him to that level slight (real or imaginary) while Rodman was all about the body language, angles, game film he was that other dimension. Pippen was the balance between the two good cop to Jordan's bad cop (which threw off opponents when he "broke character") and a great defender (10 time all-defence first team one more than Jordan and 2 more the Rodman). That trio, in the second 3-peat were unstoppable.

not to diminish rodman's greatness, but you forgot to mention another "secret", he didn't have the responsibility of scoring 20 points a game, that's why despite rodman's rebounding stats barkley and moses were both better rebounders in that they were able to get theirs while being the #1 option on the offensive end, imagine their rebounding stats if they could just focus on defense and rebounding

@@julianneubauer8429 dennnis was an insanely good defender, as someone that has watched dennis since he was a rookie whether it's barkley/malone/shaq him "shutting down" these greats have been greatly exaggerated, he did guard them better than anyone else possibly could and perhaps shut them down a game here and there, but for example karl averaged 25 points for his career and he averaged 23/25 in the 97/98 finals, inexperienced 23 year old shaq for the 96 ecf averaged 27 on 64%, people also forget malone made all nba defensive first team 3 times

[@squanchy2925]

bad assessment. Barkley and Moses didn't put in the effort on the defensive end like Rodman did. You're making it sound like they had to expend more overall effort throughout a game, but that's not true at all. Rodman didn't score, but he still ran the triangle and doubled down on defense. Moses and Barkley aren't even remotely close to Rodman when it comes to rebounding. The only players in his stratosphere are Wilt and Bill.
