One of the best things I've read about him is that not only did he watch tape of opponents to see what they do but also his teammates to see when they missed shots where they come off rim depending on where they were on the floor. A great basketball mind.
@bigedjr1780 A lot of the preparation for games is something the NBA didn't focus on from the 90's and earlier. Everyone watched tape, everyone read the scouting reports, everyone did 'their homework'. It wasn't just staying physically fit. It was staying mentally fit. It seems the latter is becoming a lost art. Rodman, despite his antics, was extremely dedicated to his game, as you said.
