In the recent episodes aired this Sunday, Dennis Rodman came to be the protagonist for a short while. Well, he is surely an interesting man. Dennis is like one of the ‘party-hard’ players of the NBA and his yet another gripping incident reflects back on the Bulls days.

Dennis was the rival Pistons player for the Bulls when he first joined the franchise in 1995. He eventually played a prominent role alongside Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen to win the second three-peat for the Bulls. His defensive and rebounding abilities made him a perfect fit for the Jordan-Scottie offensive pair. He is a 7-time NBA rebounding champion and been the Defensive Player of the Year twice.
