Former NBA player Joe Smith discussed his memorable on-court encounter with Dennis Rodman. Smith recalled that early in his career when he was a rookie, Rodman, known for his unconventional mind games, would frequently try to provoke him during games. He recounted that Rodman's antics of repeatedly smacking him were initially perceived as a nod of appreciation, but later, it became clear that it was Rodman's way of trying to throw him off his game. Smith also spoke about his experience of playing against basketball icon Michael Jordan. While his team initially had a strong lead, the game's momentum quickly switched in favor of the Bulls. Witnessing the team's ability to strategically shift gears was a significant lesson for Smith that left an enduring impact on his career.
