  1. I decided to look up the numbers instead of just preaching my opinion. so according to basketball-reference.com their career numbers are as followed:

    RODMAN:

    Games- 911, Seasons- 14

    FG- 3, FGA- 5.8, FG% .521

    2pt- 2.9, 2ptA- 5.4, eFG% .529

    3pt- .1, 3ptA- .04, 3pt% .231

    FT- 1.2, FTA- 2, FT% .584

    ORB- 4.8, DRB- 8.4 AST- 1.8

    STL- .7, BLK -.6, PTS 7.3

    2x all star. 7x RBD champ. 2x all NBA. 8x all defensive. 2x def poy

    GREEN:

    Games- 70, Seasons- 6

    FG- 3.3, FGA-7.6, FG% .438

    2pt- 2.4, 2ptA- 4.8, eFG% .500

    3pt- .9, 3ptA- 2.9, 3pt% .327

    FT- 1.7, FTA- 2.3, FT% .707

    ORB- 1.2, DRB- 5.7, AST- 4.6

    STL- 1.4 BLK- 1.1, PTS- 9.3

    3x all star. 1x STL champ. 2x all NBA. 4x all defensive. 1x def poy.

     

    Now, without question, Dennis Rodman was one of the greatest defenders of all time. 8x all defensive speaks to that. Also, one of the greatest rebounders of all time. A true elite. 13+ rebounds a game is fucking ridiculous. And despite attempting so few shots has both a respectable  FG% and eFG%. The man is a hall of famer, a beast on the court. Fucked Madonna when that was actually worth braging about and has one of the most appropriate nicknames of all time. You will hear no argument from me about the greatness of Dennis Rodman.

     

    HOWEVER, to dismiss Draymond Green as a poor mans Rodman is ridiculous and patently wrong. Green is a cog in one of the most dynamic offenses in NBA history. 4.6 AST as a PF is insane. He is a undersized defender just like the worm and is one of the best in the game. 4x all defensive team in only 6 seasons. He doesn't rebound as well as Rodman, again very few do, but with 1.4 STLs and 1.1 BLKs a game his numbers stack up more than well when compared to Rodman. And a 1x STL champ at 6'9" is Hakeem levels of good. Also, Green's numbers across the board in regards to 3pt shooting are highly superior to Rodman's.

    Like I said, you get no argument from me about the greatness of Dennis Rodman. But Draymond Green is the evolution of Rodman. He's Rodman 3.0. He is a PF that facilitates his team's offense and shoots 3s at a .327 clip. He is might not rebound like the worm, but he is far superior on the offensive end of the court.

    Loki and Gamora I think are the only 2 in the movie.

     

    Even then Loki was killed because he taunted to the end. “You will never be a god!”

    Didn't he kill Vision as well?

    But how do you keep Bote on the field?  Definitely hitting better than Russell, but not sure I've ever seen someone go from 3rd to short stop before...outfield maybe?  Just seems a waste to leave him on the bench all game...he's playing as well as anyone on the team.

    Manny Machado switched from 3rd to SS pretty well. Baez routinely moves around the infield. Zobrist as well. Its not an impossible task.

    i haven't been that emotional over a sports win since January 4, 2006.

    The shot of the away fans singing to the players is the stuff sports is made of. goosebumps.
