Is dennis rodman a hall of famer
this guy will go down as one of the top rebounders in the game and used to be a decent scoring early in his career. and he has some rings.
I think he deserves the hall??
what are you thoughts on this???
and what would he wear to the ceremony a suit of a dress???

embarassment how this guy made a name for himself, and the was 6'6 220 and banging with the best of them, I remember going to his first game with the bulls against the spurs, robinson had 24 by the half against the bulls 3 headed monster, and they for the second half they put rodman on him, how many did robinson end up with a cool total of 30, because rodman shut him in the second half, and he has done that against most, in the hall you already have people you can call embarrassments i.e. racists and others.

personally i liked rodman his whole career, and no doubt he was one helluva rebounder, but I in no way would call him a hall of famer, hes more famous for his off the court happenings, than what he actually accomplished on the court.

I believe Rodman deserves to be in the Hall of Fame for the reasons as follows:
First and foremost, he was a tremendous offensive rebounder. Anyone can go get defensive rebounds; but to grab offensive rebounds takes being active, knowing your teammates shooting tendencies, knowing how to get away from box-outs, etc.
Second, he was a tremendous defensive player. He was great at slowing down, if not stopping the other teams small and power forwards.
Third, he was an integral part of those 2 championships.
But, he is a borderline Hall-of-Famer, and will not make it in on his first chance.
If James Worthy had to wait until his second chance, and Worthy was a much better overall player; there's no way in heck Rodman makes it in during his first year of eligibility.
I would guess that Rodman won't make it until nearing the end of his eligibility. In baseball, you have 15 years of eligibility; after that, if you don't get a certain number of votes to keep you eligible, you are no longer considered. I don't know how long you get in the basketball game.
As for what he'll wear at the Hall of Fame induction: I would venture to say Rodman wears a bikini. And dye his hair a bright rainbowlike color

you are right pod, but you forgot about shutting down opposing centers and he has rings with detroit too right. I bet he could still play today.

I don't believe Rodman would be in god enough to play in NBA today.
Hi forte was being active on both offense and defensive board; in the last few years, he's basically partied his life away.
He lives near here in Newport Beach, and cops often get called to his home for disturbing the peace.

No way he'll be in the Hall. Too borderline of a player, and he's off court image counts for something. Take Pete Rose as a prime example.
