NBA legend Dennis Rodman and greatness go hand in hand. Not only was he one of the best players in the league, his outfits, and style outside the court made him one of the most influential players ever.

Chicago Bulls legend Dennis Rodman was larger than life during his playing days. Apart from being one of the best on the court, he was insanely popular off the court. His antics played a huge role in his massive popularity.

Another aspect of Rodman was honesty. Whenever he was asked to comment on something pertaining to the basketball court or any socio-political issue, he usually gave an honest answer. Interestingly enough, he once made his feelings known about the late Steve Jobs, who is the co-founder of the $2 trillion corporation, Apple.

Rodman confessed, “I get emotional and it sucks. Steve Jobs was a sick man. He was sick. And he came back and made Apple again. And I think, When you achieve a lot of shit in life, what’s left?… Drinking and f***ing girls. I like that shit. I do it every goddamn day. That’s my job.”
