Before Michael Jordan and Dennis Rodman became teammates, everyone in the world thought the two could never play together. After all, they couldn’t have been more different if they tried. One didn’t do much apart from playing basketball, and the other seemed to be absolutely everything apart from it.

And yet, as soon as they stepped on an NBA court together, things just seemed to click. Both players did what they had to do perfectly. And due to it, even when there was no Scottie Pippen, it resulted in wins.

But, at the end of the day, they weren’t quite cut from the same cloth. While Michael Jordan had it in him to persevere throughout the season, Dennis Rodman once wanted a vacation in the middle of the season. And Shaquille O’Neal apparently couldn’t help but bring back what happened next.
