I was able to download Game 7 of the last back to back Laker win during the Riley era. Rodman was so erratic, but gosh, he was full of energy and he took so many crazy shots in the last quarter that he was not supposed to take.

The face of Chuck Daly in the last 2 minutes when Rodman still shot the ball even when Dumars was wide open was priceless.

One thing I loved about Chuck Daly, was the look on his face. He didn't care if the Pistons were 30 points ahead, he looked like the world was coming to an end. Push, push, push. That's how he got such a wildly-different cast of characters to win, but unfortunately, that's probably why he died so young. Type A to the max. But, Rodman said Daly was like a father to him. He didn't really turn into a nut case until he left the Pistons.

Teams had such an individual personality back then, heroes and villains. Now, not so much.
