“I am going to dissent on Rodman. Forgetting about his crazyness, he was the main reason the Pistons won their titles, he revolutionized the game with his mastery of rebounding and his defense.”

I agree with this. And, although he certainly has always been...uhhh...”different”...he was a very good team player ON THE COURT (where it counted) for the Bulls. Defense is not sexy, and it doesn’t make you famous. It does, however, win games. He has a much more difficult early part of his life than most people (see wikipedia). I think that he did fairly well for himself, and a lot of that was hard work in addition to talent.

Honestly - putting Rodman on the list means the writer doesn’t understand “over-rated” and/or basketball

not to mention the writer’s “logic” lacks consistency - Wilt is overrated because he “only” won two titles; but Rodman is too, and he won five? Pick a lane.
