"What is wrong with that Psycho?": Dennis Rodman on feeling scapegoated in time with the Bulls

Dennis Rodman is one of the most polarizing players in NBA history. During his playing days, his reputation as the ultimate hustle guy and prolific rebounder was only matched by his frequent outbursts, on-court fights and attacks on the media. The legacy his career has left behind is that of an ultimate winner and one marred with controversy.

Rodman spoke about an incident where he felt scapegoated early into his tenure with the Chicago Bulls. It occurred in 1996, during his first season with the Bulls, in a particularly chippy game versus the New Jersey Nets.

With 1:31 remaining in the first quarter and after just 10 minutes of playing time, Rodman was ejected from the game following two quick technical fouls. Rodman briefly tried to plead his case to referee Ted Bernhardt, but after Bernhardt didn't budge, Rodman headbutted him above the left eye out of frustration.

Rodman quickly received a six-game suspension and a $20,000 fine. The media lambasted Rodman for his actions and felt the punishment wasn't sufficient. However, in Rodman's eyes, he was unfairly criticized due to his past playing with the "Bad Boy" Pistons.

"They're making me a mark man where any little thing I do is a problem," Rodman said. "And tomorrow people are going to black and white, 'Oh, he's done it again, he's at it again, what is wrong with that Psycho?'"
Rodman added: "They don't understand, though, I'm not crazy. I know exactly what's going on."

Dennis Rodman expressed his frustration at what he viewed as a one-sided portrayal of the incident and his character as a whole.
