Dennis Rodman Claims Nikola Jokic Is Better Than Larry Bird in Today’s NBA

The years will pass and Dennis Rodman He will continue to make headlines, whether it be due to facts of his busy life on and off the tracks that come to light or due to his criticisms, as is the case.

The for many greatest ‘bad boy’ in the history of the NBA shot against Larry Bird, despising him in the comparison he made with Nikola Jokic:

“If Larry Bird played in this era, I think he would be in Europe,” the five-time NBA champion began by saying on VladTV in statements echoed, among other media, by the Boston.com portal.

“He would be somewhere over there (referring to Europe). His game fit for Boston at that time in the ’80s and stuff, but in today’s world, ‘heck no’ there’s no way. I’m not disparaging him because he was a great player at the time like I was, but I’m saying there’s no way,” Rodman continued about the three time NBA champion with the Celtics (1981, 1974 and 1986).

“I think the Denver boy (referring to Jokic) is much better than him,” also added the man who won the ring twice with the Los Angeles Pistons. ‘Bad Boys’ (1989 and 1990) and the Bulls of Michael Jordan (1996,1997 y 1998).

As Boston.com recalls, Detroit beat the Celtics three of the four playoff series they met between 1988 and 1991. Dennis Rodman also beat Bird the late 1998 when the three-time MVP was coaching the Indiana Pacers. As if that were not enough, Rodman wanted to put his finger more on the sore.
