Aaron Rodgers Once Named the Chicago Bulls Equivalents in Green Bay Packers With Him in Michael Jordan’s Role: “I’m Not Quite Sure, Though, Who the Dennis Rodman of Our Team Is”

Aaron Rodgers is certainly one of those great players who does not have many great weapons to play with. The Green Bay Packers quarterback, unlike Tom Brady, has not had many opportunities to be around an incredible offense as well as a remarkable defense and special teams, that debate is somewhat never-ending. But one of the reasons why the Packers did not make it past the Divisional Round in 2022 was because of that lacking special team contribution.

The aforementioned notion can be proven by his four MVP awards on one Super Bowl title. However, during his 17 years with the franchise, the four-time NFL MVP has got the likes of skilled teammates from time to time. Just like this past season, it was Davante Adams.

Aaron Rodgers has a soft side for Michael Jordan

Many would harshly disagree with the Green Bay Packers not being on par with the 90s Chicago Bulls. However, Aaron Rodgers certainly had his own vision of his team especially after he watched Michael Jordan’s documentary ‘The Last Dance’ early in 2020. The documentary became so popular in so little time that it even lured star players like Aaron Rodgers to share thoughts on it.

Aaron Rodgers is little known to be fascinated by the NBA GOAT since his childhood days. And that is something that played into context when he described how awestruck he was by watching his childhood hero on the screen once again.

“I’ve gotten to know him a little bit over the years and always enjoy our interactions and have a ton of respect for what he accomplished in the game. He’s the greatest basketball player of all-time. Really I’d love to debate anybody on that,” he said.

Rodgers also added that he has known some of the Bulls’ players. He mentioned how he got to know Steve Kerr, Jud Buechler, and also the

“Robin” to Michael Jordan’s “Batman”, Scottie Pippen. He met Pippen in a golf tournament in 2019. However, he did not mention much about the third pillar of the “Big Three” but he wondered who his counterpart keeping in mind his Jordanesque presence in the Packers.

“I’m not quite sure, though, who the Dennis Rodman of our team is but I really did enjoy that part of the doc as well,” he hilariously stated. Though it was a very cheeky way to flaunt one’s greatness but was it a comparison well made? Given that Jordan has had six NBA champions while Rodgers has just one, it might be a great debate too.
