"You motherfucker..."
The hoodlum was afraid of meeting a bigger hoodlum, and Roger's attack left even the thick-skinned Rodman at a loss for words for a moment.
Shaq, who was nearby, couldn't help but laugh seeing Rodman's crestfallen face. I told you, this time I got a tough guy!
"He'll stand up for me!"
The game started, and Shaq vied for the ball over the Admiral's head from the jump ball.
On Magic's first offense, Roger backed down Spurs' number two scorer, Sean Elliott.
This third overall pick of '89 stood 203 cm tall with an impressive wingspan, but his weight was exactly the same as Roger's right now.
Because he was taller, he looked even skinnier compared to Roger.
Roger's post-up met little resistance, and he got to the free-throw line's left side, smoothly turning around for a jump shot. But as he released the ball, The Worm Rodman came up to contest the shot.
