"Actually, I don't think it's a big deal at all! They're just making a fuss, and the watches are sitting there, and I'm just taking them out and giving them to my friends to wear??? ．?ｒ?ａ?ｎ?? ena'com would have sold all those watches if I really wanted to steal. ”

Lamar was of course amused by Rodman's crooked reasoning, but Rodman still admired him very much, otherwise the two would not smell the same! Lamar likes a straightforward person like Rodman, who gets along easily and will not be stabbed in the back by his brother.

Although Rodman will also make excuses for himself, at least he will not admit it after becoming famous, as some people do. From this point of view, Rodman is much more open.

When Rodman was released from detention, his mother hated him and persuaded him to continue his education. Although Rodman was a bastard, he was still obedient to his mother, and he didn't want to mess around for the rest of his life, so he went to the University of Oklahoma.

Rodman then entered Southeastern University in Oklahoma, where he scored more than 15 points per game in his first year, and his rebounding talent was also on display at this time, leading the NCAA in rebounds per game, which earned him a selection to the All-Defensive Team that year.

After graduating from college, Rodman participated in the NBA draft, and finally the Detroit Pistons took a fancy to his talent for rebounding, and selected him to join the team in the second round, and Rodman's legendary NBA career began.

None of the Knicks players understood why Rodman was babbling on and on with them, only Lamar, who hadn't been drinking, seemed to have guessed something.

As if sensing the doubts of the Knicks players around him, Rodman explained: "Are you curious about what I'm talking to you about! Actually, it's not surprising, it's been a long time since I've said so much like today." A lot of people think I'm crazy, like they're going to get the virus when they talk to me, and they avoid me! In fact, they think to me are a bunch of hypocrites, and they only live with masks every day, what's the point of that kind of life?"

Rodman said, a look of pain on his face.

Looking at Rodman and listening to Chipworm tell his story, some of the Knicks players who empathize seemed to understand something. For example, Billups, who had been wandering before meeting Lamar, and Mark Jackson, who had reached the age of retirement, and others.

Rodman's story continues, and he seems to be genuinely happy that he has found an idea that can continue his NBA career.

Lamar and the Knicks also seemed interested in Rodman's story. For a while, the Knicks' training was not going on, and Van Gundy would interject a few words from time to time to discuss defensive strategies with Rodman. The two of them obviously hated each other a little bit, and the hero saw something the same thing, talking, smiling and toasting.

To be honest, seeing that Van Gundy, who has always been rigorous, would talk to an alternative like Rodman, the Knicks' players were a little confused!

Gradually, Rodman and Van Gundy got a little drunk, and the original topic began to shift to everyone's own profession, good and bad, everyone this time was like a grievance meeting in the history of the Red Army, and they all talked without scruples.

"It's a very proud thing to be in the Hall of Fame!" Rodman said with red eyes, "I don't care, but I have to! ”

"I don't need a title to do anything on my own, and I don't think it's a big deal to me! But it means a lot to all the people who raised me, like my mother, the basketball coach in college, and Chuck Daley and Phil Jackson! Daley and Jackson are like my fathers, who have helped me in my life, and these people mean the world in my life. ”

Lamar agrees with Rodman's claims, a title that at least affirms his career, and if he can get it after he retires, it will be a comfort to him, Lamar's family, and those who have helped him.

"Old man, do you have any hope of being selected this time?" Apparently Mark Jackson was the most concerned about this incident in this group, after all, he was also the one who was about to retire. Based on Mark Jackson's current scores, it seems that he also has a chance to be inducted into the Hall of Fame after retiring!

Isn't Bill Russell also single-handedly outstanding?" Rodman also used The Lord of the Rings as his benchmark: "Didn't Russell also score under rebounds, but he won 11 championships for the Celtics and averaged the most rebounds per game in the league." Of course, I don't compare myself to the legend!"

Although Rodman can't be compared to Bill Russell, the five championship rings on his hand are not blown! The honor of the seven-time rebounding champion can definitely make him worthy of the word great.

After a night of hustle and bustle, the Knicks are back on track. It was Rodman, because this trip to New York had become the focus of media attention once again because of the Hall of Fame incident.

When reporters were investigating whether Rodman was eligible to enter the Hall of Fame, many celebrities and sports officials expressed their opinions in interviews with media reporters.

Scott Pippen, one of the Iron Triangles of the Bulls dynasty at the time, publicly declared that he didn't think about inducting Rodman into the Hall of Fame at all: "The Hall of Fame selection criteria should not be based on the offensive side! It should be based on the greatness of the player, and Dennis is one of the greatest players I've ever worked with! You may question his ability before joining the Bulls, but in the Bulls he proved great, and his ability is enough to prove himself." In my opinion, he was the first person in the Hall of Fame. ”

Now Knicks coach Van Gundy is also inseparable after a night of contact with Rodman, and he also stands up for this brother who hates to meet late: "In my heart, Dennis belongs to the Hall of Fame, there is no doubt about it! He is a five-time champion and the core of the two teams that dominated the league in that era." He's proven himself as the rebounding king, and he's made rebounding the key to the game, something no one has done before him. ”

Rodman did do a lot of great things, as mentioned above, but he has played more of a role as "Dennis" in his career.

During Rodman's NBA career, he dated Madonna, married model Carmen Electra, dislocated his arm in a motorcycle accident, kicked a photographer in front of the broadcast cameras, and wore a bridal dress to promote his first book. He was arrested twice in a year, once for an altercation with Electra and once for disturbing the peace of Newport Beach. He has headbutted referees, trash-style officials, thrown things on the pitch, punched players, and received numerous suspensions and fines for doing so.

In the face of most people's support for Rodman, many objections also list Rodman's bad deeds, but these cannot hide his contribution to basketball.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, a Lakers celebrity who has long been inducted into the Hall of Fame, believes that Rodman's eccentric behavior should be counted separately from his eligibility for the Hall of Fame: "His performance on the basketball court is enough to qualify him for celebrity, and his grandstanding behavior off the court should be a different matter!"

In the face of the support of these people who know or don't know, Rodman, who has always been a maverick and perverse, also shed tears, and then roared at the reporter who interviewed him: "I always feel like a lucky guy." What I'm looking forward to most now is getting dressed up on the day of my Hall of Fame induction speech. But if I didn't make the cut, I was still Dennis Rodman, and I was so happy with all the championship rings I had and the memories that came with them!"

After Rodman finished venting, he bowed around very funny, like a Broadway theater actor. Lamar, who saw Rodman's behavior on TV, couldn't help but laugh.

Watching Rodman's performance on TV, Lamar couldn't help but think of what the old guy said to himself at the bar that night: "Lamar! Think back to when you first entered the NBA, how did you play in the Lakers? You did whatever you wanted, you laughed at your opponents and attacked them, you were the real you at that time! You were the real Lamar Koval at that time!"

"But now? You're carrying too many things, you're not happy at all, you're constantly reminding yourself what you should do, what you should do. These things are actually nothing, but you should bury them in your heart, and now is not the time to explode! Look at the way you look now, you actually torture yourself like this for the sake of women, this is such a bastard!"

"Remember, half of the NBA is money, and the other half is sex! Everybody in the league knows it, but no one wants to say it. If you want to hunt for beauty, the NBA is definitely the best place, and the BA itself has attracted the vast majority of beauties, who generally walk around in groups near the game venue and the hotel where the players stay. They take pride in sleeping with their players, especially their stars, and take pride in their "dewy feelings" with them, and get together to compete with which star is better in bed. These women are all very young, and some of them are simply sexy. ”

"Lamar! let go of all your unpleasantness, go to the fight, and crush all your enemies. Rolling away from all the obstacles in front of you, making your opponents fear you, and making all the fans cheer for you, that's what men's basketball is. ”
