Long before his CNN meltdown<\/a>,\u00a0his best Marilyn Monroe impersonation for Kim Jong-Un, saying LeBron would be an average player in the 90s<\/a> and before all the\u00a0tattoos, dating Carmen Electra, making movies with Van Damme, wearing wedding dresses to book signings and acting like he\u2019s lucky every time he hits a three near the end of a Bull\u2019s blowout game, Rodman was a \u201cBad Boy\u201d...that didn\u2019t look like a \u201cBad Boy.\u201d<\/p>\n

During this time with the Piston\u2019s Bad Boys, it wasn't that rare to see him score in double figures or get a double-double. And during the first game of 1991, Rodman must have made a new years resolution to become a scorer because he exploded for a ridiculous line of 34 points and 23 rebounds against the Denver Nuggets. Then he came back to reality (sort of) with back to back five-point games. Keep\u00a0in mind, he was playing with instant offense greats like Adrian Dantley, Isiah Thomas, Vinnie \"The Microwave\" Johnson, Mark Aguire and Joe Dumars, while Laimbeer and Rick Mahorn would occasionally drop 20. Still, the Worm before the Worm found a way to put together these exceptional games with those exceptional teammates.<\/p>\n
