NBA's famous bad boy is now a Chicago Bull
By Kelley Shannon The Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — After a year of clashing with the Spurs management and his teammates, defiant Dennis Rodman has left San Antonio.
"Big surprise, huh?" quipped Spurs general manager Gregg Popovich as he announced Monday's trade with the Chicago Bulls.
Rodman, 34, known for his tattoos, earrings, colorful hair and foul language, was dealt to Chicago for center Will Perdue and other considerations in a move that was widely anticipated.
Recently, Rodman had shown his discontent with San Antonio, suggesting in news media interviews he deserved more money and criticizing the play of teammate David Robinson, last season's Most Valuable Player.
Rodman was entering the final year of a contract with the Spurs and was to make $2.5 million this season.
The Spurs made it to the Western Conference finals last season before losing to Houston. Throughout the playoff run, the Spurs' accomplishments were overshadowed by Rodman's antics.
Unloading Rodman on Monday seemed to delight Spurs officials.
A year of turmoil began with Rodman getting fined $15,000 for showing up late to an exhibition game last October. He was suspended for the first three regular-season games last season, then given a paid leave of absence. He was suspended again when he failed to return on time after his leave.
When he did appear, Rodman's rebounding reigned supreme — he led the league for the fourth consecutive year.
But he wasn't always on the court.
He missed 14 games after separating his shoulder in March in a motorcycle accident. The Spurs maintained a 12-2 record during his absence with forwards Terry Cummings and J.R. Reid leading the way.
During the playoffs, Rodman and the Spurs were at odds again. He was benched for a game during one Western Conference series because of an on-court dispute with Spurs coach Bob Hill.
Hill, who wasn't at Monday's news conference, apparently welcomes the post-Rodman era.
Rodman's agent, Neil Draddy, said the player was excited by the trade as well.
"He's elated," Popovich said.
Popovich said the Spurs can win
"I think it's a perfect fit," Draddy said. "(The Bulls) need some work off the boards and the extra defense he will give them. I think everything will work out just fine."
without Rodman.
"We were without him for quite a bit last year, so it's not any different in many respects," Popovich said. "This team won before Dennis, during Dennis, and it will win after Dennis."
San Antonio last week signed free agents Carl Herrera and Greg "Cadillac" Anderson — players Popovich said would provide some of the same skills Rodman did.
Although Rodman and his ever-changing hair color were favorites of many fans, Popovich said he wasn't worried about convincing Spurs followers the trade was the right move.
"For those people who are huge Dennis Rodman fans, I understand that he is great entertainment," Popovich said. "We've got to look beyond that."
"He brings a consistent, blue-collar work ethic." Ponovich said.
In 49 games last year, Rodman averaged 16.8 rebounds and 7.1 points. Perdue, a 7-footer entering his eighth year, averaged 8.0 points and 6.7 rebounds last season in more than 20 minutes a game.
Rodman leaves San Antonio after two seasons. Finding a team willing to make a Rodman trade wasn't easy, Popovich noted, summing it up in a word. "Drew"
